As a side note, Betsy is Katy’s bike :) The scary part is that Bean isn’t all that much too short to ride it.

Post-meeting chill time
Bobble and I just came out of a very important meeting today and are having a bit of decompression time at Starbucks. Tacky, maybe, but sometimes you just need to have a frappucino and a doughnut.
Happy unbirthday Katy!
The Fortnum&Mason fairy had a special delivery for Katy’s unbirthday :
Bronnley Orange And Jasmine Soap
Cornish Clotted Cream Thins
F&M ‘Time for Tea’ Cotton Tea Towel
F&M Marshmallow Hot Chocolate
Lemon Curd Piccadilly Biscuits
Mini Classic World Teas
Sandringham Blend Coffee
Sea Salted Caramel Truffles
Rory Dobner Mug Building Cat
A big box of pampering treats (they couldn’t send booze because of export/customs – besides, we have enough already at home).
Curves!
Katy is not, and hopefully never will be, a stick insect. She has curves, and those curves are getting more definition as her running progresses. Rawr!
You know it’s wet when…
… there are ducks waddling around your lawn looking for a good home.
Katy’s Bean impression
Bean is in his usual weekend mood, averaging 1.3 whines(*) per minute (actual fact) and dragging his feet (literally) so that a 3 minute walk takes 3 times as long.
(*) his legs huuurt, he’s too waaaaarm, he’s getting weeeet, uuuungh, it’s not faaaair, stooooop it
Definition of misery
Bean didn’t like anyone this morning. He didn’t like school. His hair was wet. His bag was heavy. He was too warm. Unnnngh. Not fair. All he wanted was to find a missing bit of lego (*), but nobody would help him. He was walking as fast as he could (**) but his legs were hurting.
And then a switch went click, he started talking about seed potatoes, and he was happy again.
Grief. If he’s like that at 7, we won’t survive 17.
(*) 5 minutes after we should have already left the flat.
(**) he would have been hard-pressed to keep up with a drunken sloth.
Homework time
Working on the 3Rs :)
I went to Gruyere and all I got was licked by a cow

All I wanted was to sleep it off
Had a migraine today. Just wanted to sleep. Didn’t expect sass from wifey about catching me in bed spooning pussy.
