Using my get out of blog free card

NS November 11th, 2007

I didn’t get to bed until half twelve last night. The Noble Child woke up at 6am. It was my mother-in-law’s birthday so we were over there by 11.30am and were there most of the day. I’m so tired that my eyes are prickly and my thought processes have slowed to levels comparable with someone suffering from hypothermia and dementia. So, I got nothin’.

I am going to eat a few of the Fudge Stripe cookies that my friend in the US sent me the other day (thank you, S!), drink some milk and then be asleep before 10pm. It is going to be bliss. I will apply for my senior citizenship tomorrow, I promise. Until then, please excuse this turd of a blog post.  Goodnight.

Joke fodder for the store clerk

I forgot a few things at the shops when I was there earlier today so I jotted down a list this evening for when I go back tomorrow morning. The three items were:

  • twist ties (for the bin bags)
  • butter (for my popcorn tomorrow night)
  • yellow rubber gloves (to wear while cleaning the oven)

That sounds like a shopping list right out of an S&M manual, doesn’t it? If I’d added a feather duster I would definitely end up on some kind of watch list. I think I’ll clean the oven another day. Any excuse, you know.

**Whew! Nearly didn’t get this post in before midnight. I was watching a movie and just completely forgot. That was close!
