Shall we Dance?

This is a film to miss, unless like me you are so tired you can't even physically summon the energy to lift the remote control and change channels onto something better. It is such a pointless schmaltz fest it had me gagging by about the first five minutes. I must admit I love dance films, Strictly Ballroom and Dirty Dancing are fantastic, but this was just a vehicle for an ageing Richard Gere and a pouting JLo. Not one I'd recommend. It got me thinking about Strictly Ballroom though and how much I want to watch that again. Such an excellent film!

It's really cold and damp today. I've been stood outside a house for 3/4 of a hour whilst the viewers walked around the garden and I wish I had worn something warmer. I've got a nice hot cup of tea to wrap my hands around in a minute thank god.

Its my bday on Friday and I'm going out for a nice meal with Nick, my Dad & his girlfriend then on Sat I'm off to Jersey to collect THE DRESS and obviously do some shopping as well. Hopefully this week will go quickly because my diary is quite busy with viewings and stuff. I bought some shoes to go with the dress yesterday. I hope they match. And I spoke again to the florist, photographer and the organist. I had a crack at writing the order or service but it needs a lot of tweaking! And I also need to track down some place cards. Am a bit sick of wedding stuff to be honest, I just want to forget about it for a few days. And I have a spot on my cheek which is gross.

Update: Had to go home in between viewings and put on a jacket and some boots (rather than open toe sandals) but the jacket doesn't really go with the trousers I'm wearing, cos they're beige and the jackets dark brown and I feel a bit horse ridery. Like I just need a whip and I could go off for a ride on Willemina. Tonight I am obliged to go to a drumming thing at Beau Sejour because of a free ticket fest which is annoying because I'm very tired and I would have liked to fall asleep but there's no chance of that with all samba crap going on. I might need to retract calling it crap tomorrow if its turns out to be any good. Nick's not going to be there for the first halk either so I won't even be able to nestle up against him, Sigh.
