Hallowe'en was a suitably eerie experience. I spent most of the evening in a car going around South London and getting lost, running through Battersea Park getting lost and then making my way back home in said car, the long way round (which is the equivalent of getting lost) with very little achieved (except for an apreciation of Battersea Park at night. It looks perfect for a themed/fancy dress ball at New Year's... *dreams of open-air baroque concerts*).

I was of course meant to go to an awesome party (I will admit I had my reservations about it, though - I have decided to acquire a new superstition because everyone else seems to enjoy having one and I feel like I'm missing out. As a result, when the perfect pair of shoes were not in my size, I could only take it as an omen of the worst kind) but I decided to be decent and go out to an art talk on the Haiti uprising that the friend for whom I'm doing the illustrating job had been press-ganging me into. It should have been great if only the friend I was going with had remembered *sighs*. As such, he was late and so we couldn't get in. He did offer to take me to the party, but by that time, I would have got there around eleven and as I had college the next day... bleargh.

So a thoroughly odd evening 'twas. A lot of travelling with very little achieved. The party did turn out to be awesome and I am still a little resentful (I really, really like dresing up and then dancing for hours in my layers of taffeta) but I suspect I will survive.

However...

I am thinking of attending the White Mischief night (http://www.whitemischief.info) on Saturday, and I was just wondering if I'm likely to see anyone else (apart from Maud) who I might know there...
