Nov. 23rd, 2006 10:54 amMeh. Meh meh meh stupid rainy wet November. Meh.
Which sums up how I felt this morning. HOWEVER things are not all bad. On the plus side...
1. The plumber is coming tonight, yay! Not quite sure how or where he'll fit in between horse/pilates/mulled wine, but I'm sure I'll manage. Principally by leaving work an hour early I reckon.
2. The horse is fix0red! Well mostly - the equine physio lady (more of a horse pokerer than whisperer) came on Tuesday and did the pokey stretchy massagey thing; said she had a very very stiff shoulder and worse hip, with lots of scar tissue, poor Zigs, but she should be fine. We have to do the leg lifty/shoulder rotatey things on her daily tho, which she is NOT impressed about at all (Ziggy that is, not the horse pokerer). She already looks much happier and will ride tomorrow and see how she feels.
3. Stuff ordered AGES ago (over a month) from Blackmarket Beagles has finally arrived! I had almost given up and WOULD have emailed cafe press about it, except I can't get into hotmail at all atm to get the email. But it's all here now, except I have to go to Tomb St and pick it up and pay customs on it. Damn Americans.
So. I want Reasons to be Cheerful from the rest of you! What's made your crappy november day a bit brighter?

I'm chatting to an apparently cute 20-y-o with long blond hair online.
All the references to "horse pokerer" have left me shaking with laughter.

Also, I very nearly typoed that as 'horse poRKere', which I think has a rather different connotation...
