I got in late tonight after Reading, stopped in Exeter to say hello to people and we ended up in the pub. Am exhausted so a proper update tomorrow with full Revelations report.

In the meantime, am still absolutely disgusted by the mess in Louisiana, as, it appears, are a lot of other people. [livejournal.com profile] tyrell has a statement from Viggo Mortensen, and [livejournal.com profile] allezbleu has a copy of Micheal Moore's open letter to Bush (which, as is usual with Mike, is a little full of hyperbole but the basic point is sound). Outside of LJ land, China (who's new book is now out, so guess what I'll be reading tomorrow morning) has been compiling details of the fuck ups made by those with money in power. Specifically this one, the Politics of Weather showing how the company contracted to plan the emergency recovery have now removed all mention of it from their website. Isn't webarchive a wonderful thing?

Time to bed; it's after midnight, meaning it's 5th September. I'm thirty-one. That means I'm no longer "just turned thirty", I'm "in my thirties". But still, happy birthday me. Anyone in Exeter interested, [livejournal.com profile] silentgreeneyes and [livejournal.com profile] mapp have set the time of 5.30pm in the Impy tomorrow, for general celebrations; [livejournal.com profile] draxar wants to celebrate graduation, etc. Join us...

And now, to bed.

Hey Mat, happy birthday. Probably wont be able to make the drinks tonight, so maybe see you at the weekend instead.

So now you're thirty-something, any major, life-changing plans? :-)

Happy Birthday - was cool to see you too and I also am sad I missed Rosie Lugosi. Such is life.

Sorry babe - didn't know it was your birthday!! So happy (Belated) birthday...

Being in your 30's isn't so bad... ;o)

And take solace in the thought that you'll never be as old as me!!
