I Am Not A Reliable Narrator

23 May 2007

Brighton

I didn't do a whole lot in Brighton. I had a bacon sandwich. I looked in little boutiquey shops. I sat by the sea and read a trashy book. I drank coffee with no GI distress (A victory!) I had a delicious piece of vegan banana chocolate cake (I was too busy eating it to take a picture but it was delicious and beautiful, there were actual CHUNKS of chocolate in it!). it wasn't a very exciting day but it was really nice to sit next to the sea and listen to the waves. I thought about buying things and about doing things but the effort required for nonfood transactions just felt like too much bother.

I also got a bit of a sunburn.

I was home by eight o'clock and got a phone call from Jeremy with potentially BIG news. But nothing firm enough to offer more than that teaser. He's in Chicago right now for work



OH! And I saw these totally creepy carousel horses! They have names.

    Sounds like you had a nice time! The beach looks great. It's a shame living in the Midwest sometimes :(

    And I agree. Those horses are creepy!

    If it IS a baby, I'm voting for Neil or Gemma.

    Just kidding. I just can't get over the named carousel horses.

    I love they have such British names. Only thing better would have been if they were Nigel and Alistair.
