killer rabbits play on a plane

normail service is slowly being resumed.

i didn't realise that if i locked down flickr images and then re-opened them up for public consumption the link would remain broken. so am having to go back and do everything by hand. still it was nice to be able to lockdown in one swoooshie when needed.

anyway, in between all the new gigs that my daughter ravenisis (video link) has been booking, and running around shopping for new bras for both of us, i've been having alot of late late nights in with the family and my visiting sistah elektra...so managed to make the killer rabbit for her to take back on the plan with her to oz. watch out - this flight could be a mashup of child's play and snakes on a plane if she doesn't sleep with one eye open!

saturday nights alright for fightin'

so despite me being a confirmed hooker, i seem to be part of a lovely little gang o' ladies who have named themselves knit1 eat1. i think that they came to this decision while i was passed out cold at the dinner table of ms marmite lover's underground restaraunt, because i'd never have agreed to such a thing!

but as i learned the other week when i let my hairdresser cut my hair while i napped...if i'm going to siesta then i'm going to have to live with it. and gosh darn i really can't wait for my hair to grow - think i am needing a falso pony tail for belly dancing definitely.

anyway, let's recap why i was a asleep at the table and NOT crocheting at the underground restaraunt. for this we have to back track to thursday night where it all started... so here's a timeline:

thursday night

7:00 arrive for sushi and sake with thayer prime

9:30 go to she says women in digital birthday party which sucked so drank brambles

10:00 head over to the cellar door and consume dirty gin martinis and lots of free champagne as i am still celebrating my birthday as it is still april and i was born on the first.

friday day

lunch drinks with my accountant at the crown clerkenwell green

then beers in the studio at my desk

straight home because i'm dead tired

saturday day

11:00 training really darn hard with my trainer ivo

13:00 double vodka at the ship in soho

15:00 another at the intrepid fox

17:00 sundowner on my roof 'the bloomsbury skyline club'

saturday night

11:00 head to the cock tavern to watch my daughter ravenisis perform

midnight drinking 'dudes' at the el camino in soho with the swingin' film crowd

...this is where it ALL goes wrong!

01:oo am decide to head home as feeling tipsey, but unfortunately have to go passed the crobar to get home, where i firstly fall off my stripper heels straight on my ass then stand up and go straight over on my nose. go home to clean myself up and go to sleep.

which would have been okay but...

06:00 am my door buzzer is going and my daughter is locked out.

so i decide it's a good time for a disco nap.

then stay up the rest of the morning cuddling my blondeboy and drinking bloody mary's

sunday day proper

11:00am finally fall asleep

high noon wake up with an ice pick in my eye socket and take loads of painkillers and slather arnica on my face and then get stuck on the tube at baker street for ages.

14:15 finally make it to ms marmite lover's and have a glass of cava, then more bubbles, then a glass of the nicest red i have ever let between my lips.

went straight home

did not pass go

missed my daughter's sunday night show at the cellar door.

i am a bad mother

a horrid guest

and a pretty crap crocheter lately!

find cassie!

firstly - for anyone back home or anyone that knows anyone back home can you please have a look at this blog post and pass it along if you can? nother crafty vixen could really use our help in trackin down her daughter cassie who has been missing since the 8th...there is a possibility that she could have run away, and may be headed towards Virginia. thanks so much for having a look - just in case we can help in anyway.

as a mom i can't even imagine what she is going through - just thinking about my daughter ravenisis going missing makes me sick. my daughter means everything to me and i'm so lucky - shes my best friend as well as my only family over here in london...and i'm so proud of her! we had a great day together today at the V+A for their quilt exhibition. she got me the tickets for my birthday last weekend.

i do have to say tho-that i really don't think i've seen that many menopausal women in one space ever before in my life! what is it about patchwork and the change?

excuses excuses

so i DID not end up at knitblubclub last night - sorry kids!

went to see a headhunter after work who is shit hot - he gets a salary so doesn't work on commision only. fingers crossed that i don't have to use him, but if i do - then that i can earn him a BIG bonus. and he's into mtb so we have ALOT in common.

anyway. came out of the meeting, it was raining, turned the corner and all the boys from irresistable were there - calling my name, then dragging me along to the hospital...where i drank the most lovely dirty vodka martini in the world - and maybe got them hooked on them too. (drinks on me next time boys)

then made my excuses as we were the only cool cats there and went home to cuddle on sofa with my blondeboy and my ravenisis.

and how adorable is the crocheted olive!
