What I do for a living
- Me: So... does anyone know why the book cupboard is full of demerara sugar?
Food and drink loving publishing busybody who likes a bit of a dance.
Ok, so I am a week late in deciding what to give up for Lent, but I got there in the end. The thing that I want to do without for the next 35 days is swearing. I curse too much - at work, at home - it has even seeped in to meetings with “polite company”. From now on it will be frak, darn and shiitake.
I saw Up in the Air this week, which I have been meaning to see for ages. Thank God for Orange Wednesdays because I went to see this in town and tickets were £10.40 each!!! Almost £21 to go to the cinema before popcorn and drinks? No wonder everyone downloads films these days.
Anyway, it was a lovely film. Really funny and charming (well, it does star George Clooney after all), but ultimately incredibly sad. Poor George never does make his connection…
