Exhausted

Immensly busy day today, we've been on our feet from 8 and even though there's still stuff to do I need my sleep now. We've been shitfing rubbish and going trough our belongins deciding what's going and what's going to Canada. Although we both came to England with next to no possessions, we've gathered enourmous amount of... something within the past seven years, and there are so many things I really don't need. So in that way this is very cleansing experience.

Except I'm sneezing like crazy from all the dust, my eyes are watery and I'm grumpy and unpleasant. Sure sign that I really need to go to bed now.

But Iain M. Banks was very cool - even though we really didn't have time to go and listen to him, I'm really glad we went. Not only a very funny, he was politically quite aware too and made several remarks about Dubya and Tony - for example did you know that last year he cut up his passport as a protest to the war and sent it to 10 Downing Street? Just to prove that they certainly didn't, they invited him to meet Tony and Cherie this year to celebrate some Scottish literary doo-daa... his answer was a sarcastic thanks but no thanks.

Body shutting down primary functions...
