Yesterday I had a Mesh album on in the car on the way to work. While in a traffic jam, I idly checked Mesh's website on my phone to see if they had any upcoming gigs. And they have! This Saturday! At The Garage!

If anyone else is excited about this, see you there.

(Disclaimer: it was a handbrake-on, car-in-neutral, not-going-anywhere-anytime-soon kind of traffic jam.)

My mobile has developed the annoying habit of turning itself off when I'm not looking. If you think I'm ignoring you, I'm not, I'm just unaware that my phone is off.

If I actually am ignoring you, I'll tell you.

A few months back, I bought a Mooncup. For those of you who aren't well-up on such things, it's a reusable alternative to tampons and the like, with mysterious overtones of feminism and hippie nonsense.

The couple of people I've mentioned this to have been extremely curious about the whole business, so I thought by way of a public service announcement I'd put my thoughts on it here. I was considering locking this to just girls on my friends-list, but (a) I can't be arsed, (b) I'm not actually clear on the gender of some people and (c) if boys want to read it I don't see why they can't.

I've tried to be as un-icky as possible, but a certain amount of graphic detail is required to explain things.

Edit: for the curious, but who don't wish to read the details: I think it's great, but it's not for the squeamish.
