October 2019 Things

And just like that, the new academic year kicks off and everything starts to settle down. October is still a little chaotic at the start, but we’re almost back to ‘normal’ by the end of the month, which gives me more time for myself.

John Robins – Hot Shame
I adore the comedian John Robins and I was so excited to see his Hot Shame tour at the Hammersmith Apollo with my BFF (and fellow PCD) Tim. John told a masterful tale which had me laughing and squirming in equal measures, and as Tim noted, it was painfully relatable. I don’t know anyone else who can do a 20 minute section on dehumidifiers and still make me laugh so much.

Watch Number 18
I can’t go a couple of months without a new watch.

Living With Yourself
We watched the whole of the Paul Rudd and Aisling Bea Netflix show, Living with Yourself in one sitting. It was like an entire series based on the Buffy episode, The Replacement where Xander was split into two – one with good hair and styling, and one without. And I loved it, and couldn’t guess how it would end.

Vaporetto Pizza
I love food trucks, but living in The Country in the UK, they are few and far between. It was inevitable that I would get giddily excited when realising that a Vaporetto pizza truck had set up on my drive home from work. It’s just a little too far away for me to get them home warm so a little bit of re-heating is required, but they make beautiful pizzas. It’s almost like I’m back in Texas

Brexit
Still European. Thank goodness.
