Apr. 10th, 2011 07:09 pmThis weekend has been sunny and therefore I have too - I'm always suprised by just how very much difference bright, sunny days make to my moods. Yay for Spring!
What have I done?
I bought some shoes - after weeks of ignoring the holes that were appearing in my current pair (I do own more than one pair of shoes, but tend to stick to the same pair nonetheless, and over time this pair had become my only black pair) I had to finally give up on them when the t-strap came off, leaving me with only 40% working shoe! Pah. I have dreadful feet and always always blister (ie I've had bleeding blisters from wearing flip flops), so I now have two pairs of shoes to wear in, with the expected pain. Still, hopefully I won't have to deliver another group scared to move my foot in case the final 40% surrenders - not for a whiles anyway!
I went to a tea shoppe with my parents, one that boasted HUGE sofas in the corner and I lay there on my sofa as the sun blased through the window and it was wonderful. As was the clotted cream tea that accompanied it. The parents thought I was a bit odd, but they ate their cakes and pretended not to know me.
I bought 6 dvds in the sale 50% of which were entirely because of fandom interests (and are bound to be rubbish). And I don't care.
I watched vid of Misha and Jensen reanacting When Harry Met Sally (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrJOIIOrEog) and actually blushed!
I read some excellent fic, I installed a new modem (realising as I did so that I have 4 days to get the old one sent back before facing a £100 fine!), I upgraded to Firefox 4 (which I'm not yet sure I like) and I finally packaged up the dvds I promised to send.
Oh, and I have been friended on facebook by my niece and nephew. No biggie you might say - except I have never met either of them. My brother and his wife fell out with my parents a long time ago and although as a result he has behaved in ways that make me want to shoot him, I remain civil to my brother at the request of my parents. We see each other only if we bump into each other in the supermarket, on average twice a year. In all that time my parents and I have continued to send Christmas and Birthday cards and gift cards to the children, despite as I said, never having met the two youngest.(My parents also saved for them and presented them each with around £1200 when Dad retired 3 years back - with no response from anyone) - And yet they have now friended me on facebook. Odd and intriguing. I wonder where it a) came from and b) will lead.
Now it's time for Pizza and cheesy movie #1

okay, so I might have watched Misha fake an orgasm a few more times than is healthy.
