London Calling!

[trinityofone]

Okay, crazy, crazy idea that may amount to nothing. But I just got back from dropping my brother at the airport, where he's flying to Paris for five months, and when I told my dad that I'm just dying for a vacation, he said, "Well, you're unemployed right now—now's the time to get away. You deserve it." Parental permission! So while it's still largely impractical and I'm not sure I can afford it, I thought I'd stretch out some feelers and ask:

If I were to go to London for a week(ish) in early October, would any of you be available to hang out? And/or—would any of you be willing to put me up for a couple days?

siriaeve and wychwood can vouch for the fact that I am not crazy. Or a secretly a man. (Or secretly a crazy man.)

This idea, on the other hand...yeah, it's nuts. But so's this year. I want to do something spontaneous and fun!

Trin, how long has it been since you graduated university? Less than a year, or more?

If it's less than a year (and since you're currently unemployed), you can get a student work exchange visa to... well, to Ireland, if you want to. And you can go over there and work for up to 9 months.

It's been more than a year, alas. I graduated in May 2006.

However, if I do end up going to London, I may drop off my resume at SFX. JUST IN CASE. They need me, they just don't know it yet!

Still, a week in London. London is one of my favorite world cities.

And actually... You could catch David Tennant in Love's Labour's Lost at the RSC during October.

I have to tell you that the SFX guys (and their publisher) are based in Bath. Nice town to visit; wouldn't live there.
