First things first need to catch up on somethings that I said I would post about
The movie the Heathers- did not disappoint. I recommend everyone go out and rent it and then bask in how amazing Wynona Ryder really is.
In regards to the Joker from last weekend, my gut reaction was indeed to let him know that I have a sister who is indeed a dead ringer for Mr. Leadger, however I quickly thought that said gentleman would not quite get the irony of his comment and instead think that it was okay to have further conversation with me- which was definatly not okay.
Heather your comment on my last blog made me high pitch laugh out loud- I wasn't really laughing at the barfing bit, more at the fact you wear nightdresses now. I didn't realize you aged 35 years in the time I've been gone.
Mom, I can't wait for that hug! I keep thinking of new and exciting things to show you here and I think you are really going to enjoy yourself!!!
Now for the most epic and amazing news of the trip so far:
On Saturday I worked until 1:00pm and then Allie and I took a stroll down to a local book store. There we carefully selected two children's books- mine was entitled Ugenia Lavender- and the burning pants. Then we joined a small but eager line of people (none of whom were infact children), who had also recently selected similar books. After an anxious 30 ute wait I then feasted my eyes upon the author of the book, and immediately knew that the £4.99 I had just spent on a children's book I had never heard of before was totally worth it. As the author entered the crowd erupted with clapping and yells of "we love you Gerri". Soon it was my turn in line to get my book autographed. As soon as our eyes met I knew we had a deep connection, not only because of our gingery locks, but something that kindred spirits shared. The inscription was "Love Gerri x x". If this initial contact wasn't enough to solidify our new BFF status surely the conversation that ensued gave the world all the proof it would need:
G: Hi how are you
R: good how about yourself
G: great thanks, are you Canadian too
R: yes
G: did you too come over together (referring to Allie who had just had her copy signed)
R: no not really
G: oh
R: yea she was just here kind of and I had a place to stay and now... ya we are here together now sort of (clearly too much detail)
G: okay bye
R: .....(no response)

ps- the picture proof is even better then the conversation- I really made an impression.

I saw Heather in the barf covered night dress. Fantastic! Ginger spice. Hummmm... leader in her day. I guess you have the "brushing with greatness" gene passed to you by yours truly. 4 heads of state including the Queen and Bob Hope for starters.... Keep having fun and being safe.
We are all thinking about going to a poetry reading on Monday. Wish you could be there.
Miss you and love you
Daddy
douche
I can attest to A) how amazing the Heathers was. I would like to watch it everyday. And B) how ridiculous and wonderful it was to meet The Ginge. My life is complete.
