Working week is nearly over (for me), which is GOOD. Tho, I have been Productive this week, so go me.

Also, more importantly, went riding again! This time managed to do a bit more, although it does highlight just how lacking I am in leg muscles now, particularly left calf, leading to a distinct lack of bending in that direction. Also inability to use both legs at once To Create Forward Impulsion (as the books say), which caused poor Ziggy some confusion when I was trying to get her to trot (I got brave. Also bored with walking ;p), but could only use one leg to do it. And even more confusion when she did trot and I stopped her again after 3 or 4 strides.
But, once we got moving, i did manage a few very short bursts of trotting on each rein - still sitting, not even contemplating rising trot for some time yet. Current plan is to go up once or twice a week, depending on what nights I can sort out with the others, and do a bit more each time, until she goes off for her summer break. Then start all over again after that (hopefully july/august), by which time leg should be a lot stronger anyway.

Came home with much more energy than I've had in weeks and managed to clear kitchen, put bins out, put away shopping, replace old flowers with fresh ones AND cook dinner all before hitting the sofa. I think I need to get out in the fresh air much more often, it obviously does me good!

Tonight, packing for READMEET then Pilates. Then tomorrow, a refined evening of Culture, Art and Cider with ~~team horror~~ Lovely People. And Pie!
Then saturday, more of the same, hopefully with the addition of Dasquian and Malvino.
Tho. Reading may be a step up from Feltham, but y'all really do need to move somewhere more Exotic for me to come visit. Somewhere sunny, by the sea would be good. Or just all move over here, save me the airfares ;p

Before Readmeet starts, I think we should make sure the Ais is not allowed to speak to any strange men this weekend, lest she invite them to your room and they tell us their bag is full of sex toys.

Also, I'm not in team horror so does that mean I'm not lovely and/or that you won't be having a refined evening with me? I was looking forward to the art in particular.

I think this is a very good idea ;p Unless she picks a cute one this time...

You could be one of our (small) army of Minions of Horror? In fact, now that

malvino has got himself promote to Captain Horror, we have a minion vacancy ;)

And the evening will be VERY refined, just you wait and see!

Or just all move over here, save me the airfares ;p

When you say "here", do you mean "your house" and that you're willing to let us all move in rent free? Count me in!

Here's your theme phrase for the weekend:

Oh, tra-la-la-lally we go through the valley! ha-ha!

I'm sure I could fit quite a few of you into the secret bedroom and/or the garage. And then you could all fetch me tea and cider and... things and my dream of being surrounded by willing minions would finally come true! HURRAH!

I am not going through any valleys!

Tho, it is quite a catchy tune ;p

oh what are you doing?

and where are going?

Up there it is snowing

Down here it is flowing!

oh tra-la-la-lally come into my valley! Ha ha!

Oh truly am I called

Riven. Dell.

HAHA!

Oh yeah, I bet you just LOVE to get your Dell RIVEN, you dirty slapper!

I am slightly concerned about where this 'snow' is coming from...

Well they don't make head and shoulders for 'down below'

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT? IT'S HEALTHY!

*rivs frantically*

And then you could all fetch me tea and cider and... things

well WE ALL KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN BY "THINGS"

Then just use H&S. You can perm your pubes at the same time then.

Ais did WHAT? :p

See, I'm not even horrorific enough to get an invite to Team Horror so I MUST be innocent *nodnods firmly*

YAY Readmeet!

Excuse me????

I don't think I was the one who caused the disaster there ;p

Nothing.

*snorts out loud in place of work*

STOP THAT!
