This band, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad, is playing in Portland* this evening and we've been debating going. $15 at the door, though, which seems a little steep. We've never seen or heard of them before, so I looked them up on YouTube.

Hm, *debate* *debate* They start at 8, so the venue website says, and I don't even get out of work until 9. I wonder if door price will go down if we arrive late.

*Don't anyone in Portland, Oregon get all excited, I'm in the Original Portland.

I decided rather than being obnoxious and reading this whole thing aloud to my brother I would post it here. :) Maybe one of the things I love about Wodehouse is his way of meta-writing; he writes about writing quite often.

ETA:
And then later he brings the theme back around, and it's ten past two in the morning when Freddie's friend, Derek, starts admitting that he regrets having broken up with Jill.

omg, it might be working

I said I would try to lose weight so I could return those size 18 trousers I had to buy the other day. Today I went and tried on, and found a pair of 16s that are good. And several pairs of 14s were comfortable as well! I've decided it's almost always better to go in a slightly larger size, so the belly doesn't show quite as much, so I went with the 16s for now, but it gives me hope that I really might be able to make progress. Another six weeks, if I redouble my efforts, maybe a 12 could be coming in range.
