On A Brigher Note

I have had ... some hot port. An entire bottle of v. fine Pol Roget fizzy wine. A v. tasty baked spud lots of butter.
On teh telly, they are about to show last years xmas QI which features David Tennant in a purple velvet suit. I am about to open a tin of strongbow in anticipation of this visual feast.

Things are looking up!


ETA oh my David singing Auld Lang Syne, all scotchlike (sadly NOT in a tarty skirt :/)
also, cider

am actually looking forward to tomorrow's hangover, because at least i can Anticipate and Prepare for that. and spend all morning in bed nurturing it. The simple pleasures are often the best ;)

phew...

I THINK it's safe to say it now... but today has GONE WELL. NO mishaps. No disasters. No Random illnesses.

A lie in, a hot bath, lazing on the sofa, loong catch up phone calls, deflecting attempts by family to draw me out of the house. Didn't even have to go near the horse! Finally the day of Resting I have been aiming for since last weekend :)

Did get off to an Interesting start, when Gardner George called at 10 (on a saturday! is the man mad?) and somehow ended up standing out in the street in stripey pjs, fleece and ugg boots with Crazy Morning Frizz Hair & a hangover, being shown how the repair people messed up fixing his van after a bulldozer drove into it (!).
Even got invited *inside* the van to see the botched repair but declined, on the grounds that the chances of me stepping safely out of a van onto icy pavement would be low at the best of times, but this week, non-existant. Tho, as ms being_here kindly pointed out, the day may have ended up very differently if I had got in... (probably in A&E :p).

somehow it is 10pm and I have not left the house at all (van inspection aside) and I may go back to bed soon. Pure Bliss ;)
