random thoughts and observations

there's a creek intersecting the street that i walk down everyday to catch the bus...someone threw a plastic halloween skull into the creek, and half of it is poking out of the water...quite the funny-yet-slightly-creepy sight whenever i walk by now. i wonder who, if anyone, is going to fish it out?

i've been craving a full-on english breakfast since last night, when i couldn't decide between salmon fishcakes or an english breakfast at the pub...took the tube to the S&M Cafe near liverpool street station today, just to get my breakfast. yes, i was a naughty girl :) by the way, S&M means sausages and mash, you dirty-minded people!

it came with "black pudding", which for those of you who don't know, is basically cooked pig's blood shaped into sausages or something...anyhoo, i did eat half of it and it's not too bad, but i kept thinking of what it actually was while i was eating it, hence i didn't finish the other half. i shouldn't be so squeamish considering i eat meat but still, the thought of eating caked blood kind of made me want to retch.

i wandered around spitalfields market and petticoat lane market afterwards - both great markets, i wish t.o. had more markets - then headed to tottenham court road for more wandering and shopping. kiwigirl, g and i are doing secret santa, and i bought two pressies today! and yes kiwigirl, with only three people doing secret santa it isn't hard to figure out who has who...damn you, because i figured it out even though i didn't want to!

i'm going to see a musical tonight, "woman in black", as part of a friend's birthday celebrations. should be interesting.

i feel the need to put my feet up and have a cup of hot cocoa, i did alot of walking today.
