I spent yesterday morning drinking flat champagne and eating belgian chocolate for breakfast; very rock-and-roll, but I think I have discovered the best cure for a hangover. This was my mum's birthday champagne, so happy birthday to her ( Read more... ) -

I aten't dead. I'm in Hungary.
It is incredibly hot and fairly awesome, photos and more details will come soon. I also have new categories to add to my 'Sleazes (of the world)' list that is currently under construction.
Not having a million things to do is very nice indeed, and normal human-being feelings are slowly returning.
That is all for
