... And back again!
Posted Aug 14, 2002
I came home around midnight last night, gently bobbing up and down a few inches off the ground in pure happiness, I'll tell you why later.
I was utterly exhausted. Travelling always knackers me out, and I was more than ready to dive into my dearly missed bed, when I discovered the kitten had left a little "welcome back-present" on my sheets 
Just my luck. So I had to share my mum's bed and didn't sleep as well as I should have.
Anyway - it had been a fun trip 
It took me only three minutes to turn our travel companion, Francois, into a Michael Ball fan (he went straight to HMV to buy every MB-CD he could find) and I had planned to meet Researcher Gone Wrong (Nate) by the British Museum.
Well, the museum showed to be astonishingly boring (save for the mummies and skeletons) so after a quick glance at rock, coins, pottery, more rock, more pottery and a giant door, we migrated to look at ugly dresses and getting harassed by an elevator (don't ask! 
) We said our goodbyes and "see you on h2g2"s after some hours.
Later that night I went over to the London Palladium to see if anyone had cancelled their tickets for the evening's performance. And we we're in luck; There were four seats available for the seats B1 - 4. What we later learned to dsicover was that it was the best, private balcony, the Queen Lounge itself! 
I wonder what sucker would cancel so good tickets like that... Bless them, whoever they were!
After the performance we went to the stage door to look at the cast. Richard O'Brian definately wins the "coolest exit-award" when he rushed right through the crowd on his motorcycle, stopped a moment to be photographed and drove away 
And then, the man of my dreams, the love of my life, Michael Ball came out 
I managed to exchange a few words with him, explaining I had just come from Norway ("Oh Blimey!") and he even awarded me with a kiss! I couldn't stop smiling for hours and I'm still floating a few inches from the ground...
Next day someone offered to make me a henna tattoo, so I'm now walking around with a "M B" on my arm. It's meant to last for four weeks, but with this heat I'll probably sweat it off in a matter of days 
Now, I've managed to do quite some mischief in a matter of three days, right? I'll see what happens when I come down from Cloud 9.
Toodles, everyone!

Tomorrow I'll leave for London! Yay! After that I'll just cruise around the city for a while (maybe hang out in the extremely luxurious hotel by Marbel Arch), then next day I will hopefully meet the fellow Researcher Gone Wrong, and then I'll see if I can get some tickets from the London Palladium! ... And that's seriously all I've planned so far, so I'll probably tell more about my trip when I get home.
This is Tilly leaving for London tomorrow. Have a nice couple of days without me!

One day, when I'm feeling up for it and have finally positively flipped, I'm going to delete all the GuideML codes on my User Page and start over!
This, of course, is b******g hard.
I'm gonna write a whole new inroduction for myself, put up far more interesting h2g2 graphics, and link to far more interesting topics. My current page have looked this way more or less a whole year - it's time for to change appearances! To evolve into the beautiful butterfly that I know it is!
But not right now, of course, I'm a busy girl...

Seriously...

I've given this quite a thought. I've talked a lot with my family about it, and I think I'm now ready to say it as it is:
I'm dropping out of my Christian Conformation.
It was a mistake to sign up on that - it just took some time before I was sure I wasn't a Christian. That's all. I have told my family, and all have accepted it ("It's okay if we still can give you Conformation gifts" ) but I still haven't told my friends who think they'll travel with me on the Conformation trip. And we still haven't told the priest, although that really would be a wise thing to do 
It's not a big deal at all I think. We'll see if I can get around and tell my friends sometime soon. I think it will be a healthy experience. For once I'm actually going to make a decision and don't back out of it (although that's exactly what I did in the first place )
