I spoke to many many friends last night, toasted Nat’s b’day with a Quila shot over the phone (thank-you to Ceri and Georgie for providing cleavages at either end of the line 😉 , then joined Shanta, Ceri, Ches and Stu for a convivial night of eating, drinking, joking and talking until daylight sent us crawling to bed. Between Ches and Ceri, I also luxuriated in a lion’s share of cuddles.
Last night was the best of both my worlds – as best as it gets until I can coax some of my friends here to visit me once I’m home again in Melbourne!
PUUURRRRRRR.
A very happy gypsyambercat 🙂
Happy happy joy joy
Hi Beautiful 🙂
I’m in Canberra at Mikey & Liz’s place with a bunch of people from the con (Phenomenon) including Mark (of course), Kitling, NigelW, Teknohippi, Adam of no LJ, Delwin and many others I’m not sure you know … We’ve been to the banquet (where I was plied with lots of drinks – for my b’day) and we’re now onto the tequila shots …. and we’re having them for both my b’day and for you 🙂 Unfortunately there’s not enough corsets but it’s nice and cosy and comfy… and I am in quite a happy state! *grin*
Anyway, I miss you and I got your hug and kiss from Kitling and they are well and truly returned!!!
Love’n’hugs’n’purrs’n’scratches’n’snuggles gorgeous one 🙂

Hi gorgeous!!! Thank-you thank-you thank-you for the phone call!!!! And as you see, I got off and immediately checked to see what mischievous things you may have been writing here!!!
Fingers crossed for you, me, Melbourne and con goodness!!! Less than a year.
lovenhugsnsnugglesnpurrsnscratchesnsmooches right back at you, birthday girl ;-9
fyi
Adam does actually have an LJ, though he never updates it – evil_hamster
So when are you actually back in Melbourne?
About and before april Second – Amber has a date to keep for me!
I’ll be visiting for two-three weeks next Mar/Apr on account of a certain couple getting married! Will not have good idea of dates until late August which is when I get my next year’s schedule. It’s gonna be a bit wierd ‘visiting’ home! Especially with not having a family home to stay at (though Fi and Adam’s is bound to be more fun), no Ophelia with me and no LC either..will probably be hiring a car for at least half the time. Can not be totally carless! But it will be wierd not driving round in LC.
I’ll be back for good (ish) early January 2006. Basically I finish my contract here next year, July 27, after which I will be taking off to India for five months. I want to be in India for the New Year and then fly home around 2nd/3rd of January which will give me almost a month to find a place to live and start settling in back home before my make-up diploma starts.
man, I can’t believe I have plans right up to jan 2006…it really does sound quite insane, but exciting too.
Oh and I think Shanta is giving serious thought to visiting Melbourne while I’m there next year..so the best of both worlds may be combining a whole lot sooner than I imagined. I think Blair is also getting curious to come and visit – he wants to meet all the funky, interesting-looking people in the photos on my wall!!!! yay for friends who travel!!
Speaking of which, not too long now till you head off to China..what, three months?
*chuckles*
You betcha!!!!
> man, I can’t believe I have plans right up to jan 2006…
Be careful, it could be interpreted as a sign of maturity :). Plans are good – How long is the Diploma going to take you?
> Speaking of which, not too long now till you head off to
> China..what, three months?
Yep, 3 months and counting – I’ll be over there for the second half of september. I’m starting to get quite excited about the whole event.
The diploma will take 6 months…then there is the opportunity to go and study in Hollywood for three weeks….money and grades allowing!
You’ll have so much fun in China. I really want to go back!
Cool
>Oh and I think Shanta is giving serious thought to visiting Melbourne while I’m there next year
And she is more than welcome to attend the wedding too. It will be great to see her again if she can manage it.
All this talk of travel is making me wish I could at the moment but what with no job and a wedding to plan it would not be the best idea. I will just have to live my travel life through you guys….
you can stay at our place as well 🙂
And given we have two cars and bear works from home – one of them should be borrowable most of the time 🙂
oohh…..may well take you up on that offer…specially if I am able to be home for three weeks…spread the Amber infliction around!!! And borrowable cars sound very very enticing. But the most enticing is simply all the fatty reports I’ve been hearing from your place, and cats, and garden. *bounces in anticipation*
I am getting into salads and curries…just ordered some goat’s fetta and hummos (in a pack, a little bit dubious as to how good it will be…) and am waiting impatiently for delivery. I’m working hard at being a gourmet team fatty over here!!!
team fatty to the rescue!
jess made the best mint and fetta dip for sunday night 🙂
was great to hear your voice by the way
I would like to make okinomiyummi feast a requirement of you staying – but really I’m going to insist on your company anyway because i want to :), no conditions and all the best food flavoured fun!
Just as well we have multiple spare bedding – because nikkicat and mark will be staying as well.
We also walking distance from adam and fi 🙂
Re: team fatty to the rescue!
yay!
Ooh, do you have recipe for fetta and mint dip…might go down very well at toga party, methinks….
Re: team fatty to the rescue!
I’m hoping Jess will post it to http://www.livejournal.com/community/santushhtah/
