It's not too late to wish you all a very Happy New Year, is it?

So, Happy New Year! :-)) (YSI link)

( Now, as for more ballet: )

...to have a nice (and mostly internet free) family Christmas, I thought I'd share at least some of what I've been upto during the past weeks.

One of those things was to go and see a classical ballet performance, an evening with Jerome Robbins choreographies, to be more precise. What I really wanted to see was Afternoon of a Faun, which was ( Read more... )

I've just found out that Torchwood premieres next Sunday! I can't wait.

And David Duchovny is going to direct a Bones episode! (many thanks to londonbeauty001 for the link at duchovny_fans) That's so awesome.

So, ummh, I haven't posted in a while, just left the occasional comment in other LJs, but there is quite a lot of stuff that I've been meaning to post. Like about books because I've been reading a lot, not fanfiction but real books for a change.:-) I keep adding my favourites to my reading LJ but there are also some that I liked but not that much ( Read more... )

A big, happy Thank You to the lovely person who gave me a beautiful red rose as a virtual gift.:-))) What a wonderful surprise!:-)))
