Lazy

I'm lying in bed, under the covers, listening to my iTunes on shuffle and reading a crime novel by Miyuki Miyabe, "All She Was Worth". I'm craving pasta with meat balls after a tweet I read (I'm occasionally checking online through my iPhone.) I'll pop out in a sec to get food from the corner store and then watch a film in bed with [livejournal.com profile] wink_martindale. I also feel like playing videogames and reading C.J. Lines' "Cold Mirrors". It's that sort of bank holiday Monday.

I'm slightly hung over from hanging out with various friends last night (at the Victoria, at the Empress of India, at the Inn on the Park.) I feel like watching brasilian soap operas, I feel like having a glass of water.

This sounds like a good way to spend a BH. We went to London Fields and sat outside Climpson & son watching the hipsters go by.

I was in London Fields yesterday and Saturday... I've done my quota for the next two months.

Let me know if the book is good. I'm trying to read more Japanese authors - it's good for conversation here if nothing else.

I'm halfway through and really enjoying it. It's very understated but at the same time suspenseful. Actually, a lot of it is making me think of you - the way the characters behave (for example, the politeness) reminds me of your posts. The author is known in Japan as a respected crime writer so I think it's a safe bet. Would you like me to post the book to you once I'm done? x

Thanks but it will probably cost more to send than it's price. I'll look out for it.

You still playing that japanese style role playing game? Is it still hooking you in?

That Wii game I mentioned previously? It still hasn't arrived! I'm so gutted... I was hoping it would get here by Friday so I could spend this Bank Holiday weekend in front of the telly. :-)

How frustrating!

I'm kind of envious that you can listen to music and read at the same time - I end up not really concentrating properly on either one of them.

This sounds like an amazing day.
