I had a pretty awesome weekend. On Friday, I caught up with my friend Becca. Now I've known her since much first breath, give or take a few, we were born 12 days apart, but I haven't seen her in literally months. Bad seeing as we live in the same village! Anyway we went to the pub and had a really good catch up, and relived childhood memories. It was honestly so good to see her. Anyway, Saturday I thought I might be seeing Lea, but I ended up doing chores and having a lazy morning, probably needed as I was shattered. The afternoon was dull to the extreme, and I didn't fancy going out. My brother Laurence was actually home for once, as we were both around, I took him out for a meal at Pizza Express, and afterwards saw Monsters Vs Aliens (in 3D) and it was so so good! Really funny, and I am a big Seth Rogen fan. I was up for some really lighthearted entertainment.
We got icecream afterward (Ben and Jerry's fudge brownie) and walked around town in our 3D glasses, y'know, being cool. It was all in all a great night, I feel very lucky in the sense I do get on well with my sibling, and I know not everyone can say that.
Sunday dawned nice and sunny, and Jamie picked some awesome songs to sing. I felt really honoured to be able to sing in the band, I've felt very disconnected lately, and I tried really hard not to be distracted by the externals. Jamie said afterwards I need to be more confident with singing prophetically (when you sing free style I guess is the nearest way of describing it) and it can be really beautiful, but only towards the end I felt 'there'. That moment where nothing else matters but you and God, because you are literally singing to him and him alone. It's a very special time and I can't wait to get my ipod docking system so I can practise on my own as well as band practise. I met Toby's friend Sam who was back from uni, and he seemed a cool guy, not in a romantic sense, but in the sense that he was just funny and just made me realise how much I miss having friends who are single. Don't get me wrong, my friends are great but it is tough sometimes arranging stuff as with kids, husbands and wives, it takes organising to be social sometimes.
We had a good time and in the afternoon Mummy and Daddy Dyson took me to Alburgh for fish and chips and walks. It was so peaceful and it was lovely and warm. Times like that I wish we had a dog, there were loads of families out with their four legged friends, lots of wet coats and wagging tails! I think I'd like a Red Setter. They do say a dog should be like it's owner. And the more red heads in a family the better. Gingerness is dying out! Darn those recessive genes.
Anyway, after Alburgh I had to hop on the bus to get to my cousin Donna's house, as we'd arranged a quiet night in, and a good old catch up, we watched Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. One of my favourites, and I'm sure Donna would have equally enjoyed it had she not kept falling asleep haha. We (or should I say I?) watched Constantine, man that film is good. The storyline is ridiculous but I still enjoy it, especially as Rachel Weiz is one of my favourite actresses. She seems to be very verstatile.
Today was lovely, seeing Lea and Joe, and then seeing Glaysher too. Legends.
Eugh, so tired. Is it possible to overblog? x
