Anyway, as you, my dear Russian Robot, may have realized, my parents and brother are in London and I am... here. In Halifax. Possibly the most depressing place in the entire world (yes, that's the most biased opinion you'll ever hear and is probably based almost solely on the fact that it's cloudy and rainy today and there are still snowbanks too high to see over). I hear that London is currently very dreary as well, but I'd be willing to bet that there are less snowbanks and schoolwork, so I'd rather be there, thanks. This is what I would do:
1. Go for high tea every other day so that I can eat delicious things and drink delicious tea while still not getting too fat.
2. Visit the Sherlock set. It's one of my favourite shows, if not my favourite, and they seem to film so infrequently that this is a rare opportunity. I would desperately want to take advantage of being in London to visit the set and see my favourite characters. I'd want to see the Sherlock exhibit, too, but I know about it from Julia's visit and heard it was disappointing. Plus, I'm still pissed that they turned John's bedroom into some sort of hellhole storage room. So, yes, the set of Sherlock would be my priority.
3. Go to the Tower of London. I love history, and the Tower of London is brimming with it. I would love to go back there.
4. Go back to the art museum. Not the shitty modern art museum with blue canvases with a smiley face in the corner, but the one with art that I actually like. I think it may have been on Trafalgar square?
5. Enjoy the lack of snow.
6. Go to bars and meet British people, but mostly just write in a corner and people watch.
7. Write in British coffee shops.
8. Hang out with my family and hug them and cry.
9. Meet my distant cousin who is also named Laura Jones but is cool and British and was a piano major instead of a voice major, but basically still my clone.
