First of all, see what I did there? eh? eh? (In case you didn't get that - zombies + llama = zzamas) (it's bad, I know but it's nearly All Hallow's Eve, or for the common folk out there, HALLOWEEN BITCHES).
Anyway, hey there. I'm back from my worldly travels to Oxfordshire, and if I do say so myself, I feel very well journeyed - I'm practically an expert at going to the furthest most places in the world (that was another joke if you didn't get the sarcasm - read my last post to understand :D).
It was great!! But you know those holidays that you come back from and feel like you need to sleep for a week? It was one of those... ALTHOUGH, I did get to satisfy the history nerd in me. There's an English Heritage site literally down the road from the hotel and OH MY GOD you can just feel the history seeping into your bones, it was an old manor house - I say 'was' because now it's just ruins. Those of you that know me, have either gotten an excited, barely coherent jumble of words about some part of history that I'm interested in or if you haven't, you probably will get one soon. So. I shall stop talking, lest I bore you all to death with something that you've got to actually be there to experience. Oh and if the whole dog friendly, history soaked place doesn't convince you, THERE ARE DONKEYS AT THE ENGLISH HERITAGE SITE and there's an awesome river - and I don't say that lightly if you recall the earlier post about my fears....
There's this little place a bit of a ways down the river with little stepping stones and TREE SWINGS. Those were fun. But most of the river is deep, murky and fast moving. Apparently there are fish. I wasn't going to get close enough to find out. Anyway, I was so proud of myself. Why? Because not only did I stand on the stepping stones, BUT I crossed TWO bridges. I repeat. TWO BRIDGES. That's a big deal for me. So haters, go suck something rude (yeah, yeah, I know, I censored myself... I'm trying to cut down how much I swear or say crude/dirty things, okay fuckers?).
Here's some photos of the little bit that I so eloquently described:
And here are a few photos of the English Heritage site because I like to torture people with my jumbled enthusiastic history stuff:
OH!! And completely unrelated to my holiday, I AM FIVE DAYS AHEAD OF MY COURSEWORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which means, that I am up to date with my work and have nothing to do for a while :D I am so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you couldn't tell.
Anyway, I hope you zzamas are doing some fun shit for Halloween, because I am not. I am running errands and then probably watching Netflix - no, I will not be watching anything scary. So. Do something fun for me, for I am living vicariously through you. And, I am wearing a Halloween costume in my head - something pop culture-ish yet sexy. So. Yeah. Have fun. Don't die. Okay, my concern ends there.
Happy Halloween and may the Grim Reaper give you his scythe to open envelopes.
