Dear Diary, Astronauts, Bands, Movies and life

• Attended Dr Megan McArthur’s talk for Science Week about her trip into space to extend the life of the Hubble Space Telescope. I have a HUGE crush; her talk was accessible, inspiring and interesting and I want a spaceship of my own.
• Saw The Chemist play at Amplifier and enjoyed their singer’s amazing voice.
• Digitised the remainder of my CD collection
• Watched Blood: The Last Vampire (Japanese vampire horror with very stylised violence) which was not great but did have the enjoyable quality of being a story about a girl, and her (female) adversary and another girl which was a pleasant change.
• Installed three little shelves in my room (finished painting)
• 3 hours of OTW meetings
• Went to the Families for Freedom picnic and got cuddles and rained on followed up by an amazing mango & ginger lassie

R.I.P. Ponyboy

My Betta fighting fish died today and will be missed at work (we all use him as an excuse to get together and chat). There will be a teeny, tiny fish funeral at home this evening.

I'm thinking I might not get another one.
