romantical for the excellent card and letter inside. Your wishes are mine too ♥
I can't believe it's already so long ago, but the meet-up withtara went really well. We ate out at the beach, mooched around the beach, she reassured me I really wouldn't be ushered off the plane or made to pay for two seats. James left us to go to work and we met up with Kayleigh and mam, where we mooched a bit more, and then they took us home.
It's always lovely spending time with Tara, despite her living so far away we've met many times since we first friended each other back in my early popslash days. In fact, I'll always remember one of our first meetings included talking about the Cramp pairing while watching a seal show. While we've changed paths fannishly since then, she remains a good friend.
Holiday prep is going well. We've bought travel insurance, paid for a letter from the doctor to cover James' controlled medication. Have bought holiday clothes. Which I'm now able to get from places like Primark and supermarket clothing ranges, so keeping down the costs somewhat. That is so weird, so much choice now, but at the same time, overwhelming in a way that I have all that choice when before I was limited to three plus size stores.
Tomorrow we have tickets to see Thirty Seconds to Mars at a festival in Newcastle. James got them free from his work, and also a pair for Corey and his girlfriend. Just we're not sure if we're going yet as James is at the hospital getting his back injections tomorrow, plus, is at work on Sunday so a late night is probably not the best idea. Last time he was fine after his injections, but this time he's having them done in the x-ray department and not the day surgery unit which means no pain killing gas and air as they're being done. I think we'll just wing it, see how he is when we get home.
