I got my eBay package today with the Neverwhere videos in it. I am soooooo looking forward to watching it! (And it's got an extra of a Neil interview, which is nice.)

ETA: it says on the box "from an idea by Neil Gaiman and Lenny Henry". I knew it was Lenny Henry that sparked off Anansie Boys, but I didn't know this.

I got the skirt I bought on ebay to wear at a friend's wedding! Now I'm just waiting for the top.
Here's a pic of the whole ensemble a friend photoshopped together for me:

Smile I'll be posting some anyway, they should be good - one of my friends (the one who photoshopped this one) is a really good photographer, I'm sure she'll be taking tons of pics.

Yay! I'm so glad you like it all. I was worried you wouldn't get the CD before you left for your world tour. Always nice to have new music to listen to on a trip.

That's a song by a local (well, local to where I used to live,) musician. Strawberry Banke is across the street from the theatre I used to work at. The Strawberry Banke museum includes people in costume and character showing historic buildings and places in downtown.
I love the song.

A new pair of nice chunky comfy men's Teva sandals, and another manga (Rurouni Kenshin) in Spanish for Cho Girl. (And she promptly pleased me in a couple of different ways by starting to read it and then comparing the characters unfavorably to those in Samurai Deeper Kyo.)

You are a Confectioner. Who can take a sunrise and sprinkle it with dew? Actually, that's Bob The Enchanter, two doors down on the left. But you make delectable treats, which is no simple feat considering Oompa Loompas won't be invented for three centuries. Not only do you delight with your sweets, but you've paved the way for a new profession: dentistry!
