Curry and emulsion

Went round the flat until half past 7 last night then came home to an empty house and a very hungry cat, as Nick was still out.

Leni phoned and we had a very long chat about things which was interrupted by Nick trying to phone my mobile several times. Sooooooo, I finally called him back and turned out he was in town and did I want to join, so I quick got changed and went out and we ended up having a lovely curry at the Taj Mahal. I'm not sure how authentic my main course was, it was chicken in a tomatoey sauce with cognac involved, but it was very nice indeed. Lou is over for 6 weeks from Devon to cover Rew's job, and Rew is off permanently as of next Wednesday which is poo for Nick, they're really good friends and they were all out last night. I bailed and came home after the meal becuase I do need my sleep, but it was nice to see her again.

I realised I was covered in paint at the dinner table and even had flecks on my nose but I think it wasn't that obvious.

Tonight I think we have to go round to Nick's workmates house, I'm not sure why exactly I think it's just for a drink but I could do without it to be honest becuase I have a load of painting to do round the flat. Ah well I'm sure it will be nice. I'm a bit tired though and feel bad because I snapped at Peter this morning, he was stating the obvious to me though and I was like I KNOW how to do my job thankyou I don't need your assistance. He was only trying to help though so I feel bad for being sarky. I will be nice from now on.

DONT DO LORD OF THE DANCE! We chose it for my mums funeral, because me and Kitty knew it from school, but turns out, the full version, which you don't sing at school, has some dodgy lines in the last verse...

Oh no, I jsut googled it, and it doesn't seem so bad. I might have been the other song that we sung then. I don't know it was so long ago. never let your 10 and 12 year old pick songs to bury your wife by. It must have been the other song but I forget what it was. We came to to the 4/5 verse, and it all went on about burning in hell in a really narly way for our sins, whilst being really jolly as per the other verses. Looks on faces were a bit confused in the church...

oh no it might have been this one - I danced on the sabbath when I cured the lame,
The holy people said it was a shame;
They whipped and they stripped and they hung me high;
And they left me there on a cross to die.

Refrain

I danced on a Friday and the sky turned black;
It’s hard to dance with the devil on your back;
They buried my body and they thought I’d gone,
But I am the dance and I still go on.

Refrain

They cut me down and I leapt up high,
I am the life that’ll never, never die;
I’ll live in you if you’ll live in me;
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he.

Refrain



Hmm. yes. Refrain.

well, i guess it isnt that bad actually, its kinda jolly.

but yeah. hahaha.

im not religious at all so its wierd for me to be singing about being strapped to a cross, in a very upbeat manner!!

will the organist/church do modern songs? ask them nicely and they'd do that "You're just too good to be true" song, and everyone can sing a long with the da da da da dadadadada... I love you you babyyyyyy!" etc bits.
