Comments
Ok. I have a quiet house and should be studying, but can't resist this.
1. Two nights ago. But not about a bloke/former lover. Nightmare about something awful - result of thinking too much about something very sad.
2. Escalators.
3. Candles from our lovely neighbours during a blackout when our alarm reprogrammed itself and wouldn't respond to its code to shut it down. We have since pulled every wire out of it and hope never to hear even a peep from it ever again.
4. Honey. Isn't it funny... I have a Pooh-maniac for a son. He uses the words 'honey' and 'funny' interchangeably at the moment.
5. Can't remember, but I'm sure it was very recent and was in the genre of FFS.
6. 'Office Space'.
7. Gerald Murnane.
8. My Morrissey pinstripe pants that I bought five years ago and have worn several times a week ever since. So I guess they have paid for themselves. Which probably means they are not expensive at all.
9. For my daughter, when I thought she might have worms. For me, when I thought I might have ringworm of the scalp (false alarm). Please don't ostracise me on the basis of this.
10. Pears.
11. Last week. My elderly, childless male colleague giving me a lecture on how I should study more and how it's likely I'll fail my exam. Yes, maybe he has a point. But how infuriating.
12. It's not as luxurious, but I prefer showers.
13. This morning to cancel cleaner coming so that I could hit the books. So now I have a dirty house as well as a complete lack of self-discipline. Although I guess the two go together more often than not.
Well that was fun! Happy holidays!
