Facebook Mobile means UK pokes literally vibrate in my pocket, which is strange and delightful. Also had a great weekend: sneak preview of Ratatouille, then an 11-mile bike adventure around San Francisco with some WWDC geeks. Next weekend is Pride. Oh dear.

Drinking and snark at an anti-Burning Man party, winning $11 at a lesbian poker night, and spending Easter watching drag queens, gay men, and hunky Jesus competitions in the park. San Francisco, I love you.

Used a friend's visit as an excuse to tourist around SF, hitting Marin Headlands and Point Reyes. Back is healing slowly. Finally did grocery shopping after four weeks, though the massive US portion sizes mean I barely need to eat anyway.

First proper free weekend in months. Highlights: Yahoo! UK's inaugural Hack Day, Popstarz, a spontaneous Cartoon Museum visit, funky dancing at Buttoned Down Disco, and a birthday pub lunch. My aching muscles confirm I'm no longer a teenager, but it was a great weekend.

Taking the weekend for myself.

Brilliant birthday weekend despite zero planning: Popstarz, rain-soaked picnics, tickle-fights, music snobbery, and Ghetto. Exactly what I needed. Still unsettled about something big, but at least it's crystallised now. Bring on 24.

Had an amazing weekend on a boat with 450 gay men, a 4am breakfast, and loads of new friends. Too tired to blog properly, so here are some quiz results instead.

Lovely weekend with friends down from Warwick: Popstarz (possibly spiked drink), Empire Records fan edition (actually improved by the extra footage), Kill Bill Vol. 2, a barbecue, banter, Twister on my new duvet cover, and Smallville. Good times.

Spent 36+ hours with Richard this weekend and it was wonderful. That's all I'll say about that. Also did absolutely nothing else, and I'm completely fine with it.

A fun weekend with Mikey yields scattered observations: Popstarz good, O'Neill's not Irish, Tate Britain Turner-heavy but decent, Lord of the Rings would be shorter with mobile phones, Paycheck entertaining, London movie prices absurd, and Mary lives impossibly far from Central London.

A fantastic weekend: Popstarz, kebab life lessons, the camp movie CAMP, Danny's 21st, and the genuinely jaw-dropping ladies' loos at the Knights Templar. Also Heaven, giant ants, and an unexpected candlelit dinner with pole-dancing lesbian conversation. Highly recommend all of the above.

Took Friday off and hit London: Popstarz (best club ever, designed exclusively for me), a Brazilian barbecue, failed Body Worlds visit, hotel room gossip, Regent's Park, and Covent Garden's underwhelming street theatre. A great weekend, even if returning to Winchester remains as depressing as ever.
