Hmm yet another sleepy monday late for work ;p Still I have the next 2 mondays off, hurrah!

Weekend was v. good, v. chilled out, which was just what I needed after the Brane Breakingness of last week.

Friday night had a lovely hack out on Ziggy, on a beautiful sunny evening, which always helps calm the mind. Then got home and started on the Mind Wiping, brane fixing cider , along with Pride and Prejudice on dvd. SOMEHOW *eyes thipe* the evening ended with multiple hoff vidoes (via youtube), going DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU a lot and much pondering of issues such as just WHY are his legs always so far apart?

Saturday - lie in followed by another long walk in the sun on Ziggy, then off to the land o'tiquetoque (WEAR THE FOX HAT) for more drinking, very bad jokes, Black Adder, Firefly, Serenity and general disturbingness on the part of The Family Tique. Not to mention phonecalls of GREAT WRONGNESS from thesme_01. All in all a great evening which did much to relieve the stresses & AAAARRRGGGHHHness of the week.

Sunday was mostly tired, with Very Loud Music (ouch), PIRATES (don't forget tomorrow folks, YARRR), then finally managing to get the energy to leave Tique's, only to get a call when I was 20 miles down the road to say I'd left my handbag behind and having to go back for it. WOE. Still, got it, set off AGAIN, finally got home and collapsed on sofa with the rest of Pride and Prejudice. Hmmm Wet Mr D'arcy.

Supreme Bravery Moment

I just, ALL BY MYSELF, removed a mouse that was Very Definitely Alive - very freshly caught by the looks of it - moving and even required a couple of tries to get onto the dustpan because it kept wriggling off it - without

Screaming
Running away
Hiding outside for half an hour
Phoning someone else or
Just leaving the house and hoping it would be Dead/Gone by the time I got back.


So yes Supreme Moment of Bravery for me!

Of course, I got as far as the front door, realised it was very wet and I had no shoes on and had to just fling it onto the grass, so it may not be Entirely Well. Hopefully well enough to get off side before the cat finds it again. I'm not sure I could be THAT brave twice in one day.
