Rather more cheerful than this poll makes me sound.

Does poly count?

Ohgod, I have wasted all morning attempting to recover from hangover/residual drunkenness. While I sympathise with your plight, I have to admit I'm kind of relieved you didn't escape entirely unscathed, because otherwise I would have suspected you of truly superhuman levels of hardc0re.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Jury is still out on the poly.

I am not actively hungover, just utterly useless and unable to work. Have also infected colleagues with malaise. Am also about to go to inevitably tedious meeting. Send help.

I watched that Dr Who with Madame de Pompadour in it the other night and couldn't work out who I'd seen speaking in those particular cadences for ages and then realised it was you! You look just like Sophia Myles, but not blonde.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Oh gosh, I suppose I do a bit. Maybe I could go blonde after all!

[circumlocute.livejournal.com]

Oh god, we talked about that, didn't we.
I've actually been thinking that I probably needed to apologise. You came all the way across town after a long day at work to meet me, and i was a bit of a ridiculous drunken farce who kept apologising for being a ridiculous drunken farce, and fell down some stairs. I'd be a bit pissed off, t'were me.
Argh. Sorry.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

What? No, don't be ridiculous! You were fantastic, and don't forget I was already a couple of pints down by the time I met you and Kat anyway - you have NOTHING to apologise for; it was genuinely lovely. x

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

You MOCK MY PAIN.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Too true. Also, must rewatch The Princess Bride.

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

Will you be seeing the AG himself? If so, please could you ask him to just once read something out coherently so it makes a scrap of sense? Cheers. I mean, I could just send him a note saying so, but I gather that isn't the done thing here.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Don't think I'll be seeing the man himself, but oy, I feel your pain. By the way, were you doing the P&J Bill in the Lords last Wednesday evening?

[webofevil.livejournal.com]

Yes! Though only at hour-and-a-half intervals. If you saw a blonde guy passing rude notes about peers to the reporter next to him, that was me.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Ahaha! I was in the box v v briefly around half six, to gloat about our ridiculously swift government amendment being passed.

[chiller.livejournal.com]

You two SO have to meet.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Set it up, Ms Chiller!

[chiller.livejournal.com]

Ye gods, are you still at work?

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

I know, it's stupid. Had STUPID 4.3O MEETING which is a STUPID time to have meeting and stupidly left stuff in office so after having drink with boss had to come back and retrieve it and check email and here I am. And I just found a BUG in my HAIR FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

Right. Coming home NOW.

[chiller.livejournal.com]

Good lord. I hope it was just one of the bugs from home, instead of some sort of dirty stranger-bug.

[listersgirl]

Of course, I could just be projecting on that last question there.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

I was actually expecting all single people to choose that option. Am somewhat miffed at the non-single people who chose that option in manner of EVIL GLOATERS.

[listersgirl]

Bastards, each and every one of them.

Insufficient data for a decision on the outfit; were there any fishnets involved ? nail polish ? Dangling chrome accessories ? [ Cleaning the bodily fluids off the chrome accessories ever is the mark of a lightweight wannabe. ]

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

No nailpolish, no fishnets, but black opaque tights (not that they're visible). No chrome accessories, but as libellum pointed out last night, I'm wearing a moonstone ring and earrings. Damn.

[rysmiel.livejournal.com]

I think you could pass for normal if you wanted to, then. Probably sensible given the temperature these days - you've heard me rant about people wearing short skirts and fishnets when there's four inches of snow on the ground, yes ?

[glitzfrau.livejournal.com]

Life = BRILLIANT whirling existential void. Also, I want your boots. Or failing that, at least a PHOTO.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

If you give me your size and 150 Turkish lire, I could BUY YOU the boots when I go back to Istanbul in a couple of months! But yes, picture. Will post.

[glitzfrau.livejournal.com]

I'm YOUR SIZE!!

*is heartbroken, cannot believe Jess does not know this*

(also, when are you going to Istanbul? Would like to catch kulfuldi there some time if poss...

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

I remember now, from the drunken trying on of the godl cowboy boots!

I will be in Turkey from December 21 until January 3. chiller will be there too. YOU MUST COME. Avoid the xmas angst!

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Or indeed GOLD. Must remember to proof comments before posting, yes.

[naranek.livejournal.com]

I have to admit I'm having a bit of difficulty with the first of those questions. What is this `not drunk' of which you speak?
And frankly, it sounds like a pretty outfit, but more media studies/slightly alternative young professional than outright goth. Notwithstanding that it's exactly the sort of thing libellum would wear.

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

I don't think the outfit alone is goth - especially with the addition of my coat, which is multicoloured and tweedy - but I feared that the Poppy Z Brite pushed me over the edge. Glad to hear it's not so.

[silverclear.livejournal.com]

OMG there is no correct answer to number 2!

[yiskah.livejournal.com]

Mwahaha my polls are devilish! I read the paper in the end, though.
