A New Addition to The List
Of, oh, my many many illnesses. To go on top of the ever-lasting Crohn's disease, and the more recently acquired dose of shingles, the latest in a long line of illnesses has been a lovely kidney infection.
This has had numerous drawbacks - the main ones being peeing acid and an achy back. Did i mention the flu like symptoms? All these things have meant a certain Babol has had to go without of late - it makes for interesting conversation around the flat.
Bigger drawback is that I probably won't now be going to Manchester this weekend - really wanted to go and see Twelfth Night at the Royal Exchange - it's my favourite theatre and play (yeah, so I totally want to be Viola) combined. This is the last weekend I can see it, but I'm still feeling grotty and travelling up to Manchester is hardly what i would call relaxing and health improving behaviour. So we'll have to see. if I feel fine on Saturday I may well still go, but I may have to just curl up and stay in bed instead - my weekend rocks!
Anyway, job continues well - getting busier, and i went 'on set' yesterday and watched Bridget Jones being put into a taxi by her friends, 12 times! My rule is that watching filming is interesting for 15 minute intervals. But because they take the same exact shot over and over and over... well, you can imagine, not as interesting. But I did get driven around by this great guy called Freddie, who totally converted me to the opinion that Mel Gibson is a good guy - not that I particularly disliked him before. Freddie was Mel Gibson's driver i think during Braveheart - during this he got struck down with cancer, and Mel flew him to America and paid for all his medical bills. Freddie is now at full health and definitely kicking. Just thought it was a nice thing - despite the guy's rather creepy obsession with the catholic latin vibes.
