Gosh, has it been that long?

I had no idea it'd been quite so long since I last updated. Oops.

A quick update, a la Bridget Jones. Since the beginning of the new year I have:
Passed my driving theory test (v good)
Continued to fail to be able to reverse around a corner in driving lessons (frustrating)
Lost half a stone (v v v good :D )
Moved house to live with some friends (v good but rather stressful at first whilst moving)
and
Managed to rupture a blood vessel in my eye (rather sore, but a fantastic vampire-esque appearance now)

On another note, Dith has been wondering about the best way of handling Valentine's Day. As a happily single (albeit finding it rather strange, having been part of a couple for the preceding 5 Valentines days), I would instead like to propose an alternative festival developed with some friends several years ago. Having been to the cinema on Valentines Day, and then to the Pizza Hut, we found ourselves wandering home carrying helium-filled balloons, and decided it would be far better to have a "Balloon Day". After all, as someone said in Winnie the Pooh (and I'm sure someone will tell me which character said it), "No-one can be uncheered with a balloon".

So, to all my wib-friends,happy balloon day!
