lolabobsMy going out involved only a teeny bit of alcohol, a nice pizza and - sitting in a stationary (groan!)train for 40 minutes before we gave up waiting(at the point the driver estimated a further hour's delay - at least ) and our hostess got up from her bed to drive us home. Aw. And also Brrr!
Today I looked at new cookers before getting bored and going to the more exciting home entertainment section and buying a new vhs/dvd machine! Eeeh, quite shiny. only £100 - but specifies plays NSTC tapes as well as PAL, so I'm all excited for my overseas/fangirly viewing to commence. This does make 3 dvd players in a single occupancy house, but hey...
Also had to buy a new toaster as EUW! - manky stray cat came in and peed on mine! ug. Didn't notice till I put toast in and it started to heatup - yuk, have you ever smelt hot cat wee? I do not recommend it. Yeuch.
Why am I dreaming about Satanic possession? I dreamt I bought 4 tubs of Flora light margerine - but when I got home they had morphed into 4 full fat versions. I reached the only logical conclusion - yes that's right, Satan had done this. In search of proof I read through my receipt, and sure enough the prices had changed to read '666' and there were 'secret' messages in the body of the receipt. Satan! I was in my mother's kitchen, so told her the cheery news that Satan had stolen my shopping and she became purposeful and problem-solvy. "Right" she says, "Lets see him put this lot together" - and she pulls a pack of dried spaghetti from the cupboard, snaps it in half and starts passing me handfuls of broken spaghetti, loose to act as some kind of test/protection. I became terribly irritated as little sticks of pasta kept dropping around me - then I woke up. The whole dream took place in utter seriousness and very matter of fact. Odd
Father delivered some shopping to me this morning, and brought my senile grandma along for the ride and to 'see my house'. I am not a tidy individual and don't appreciate unannounced guests - plus I was semi naked, so wasn't best pleased. Ada (my gran) wandered around aimlessly - fussed my cat, then accused him of being stuffed, asked 5 times if Elvis was still alive (I have an Elvis calandar), before asking if I had any pets! Shame really - I have only abstract sympathy as opposed to emotional as she's never been a gran to me, she's just the nasty woman who happens to be my father's mother, but even so.
Right - time to blitz my kitchen, (hence the most 'domestic' icon I have!)install new toaster,(and drainer and breadbin - I'm a spendthrift, shoot me!) and then I get to play with my new vhs/dvd machine! yay!

Date: 2006-11-19 10:13 pm (UTC)I struggled building the drainer, a dishwasher would be completely beyond me - I couldn't even do my hoover when it came, I couldn't get it out of the box, cried, then called my dad to come and do it. Oh yes; I am woman.. hear me roar.
Ihave never been mulled. I believe one can only mull red, and red makes me poorly, So i believe I will never have the joy. On the other hand, I do like stuffing ;)
