I wore a strappy vest top and little shorts today which was a bit daring for a very round lady I thought AND I went to the gym in them which was probably upsetting for others but it was just too hot
I wore knickers and a vest top on my sun lounger, it is hidden from view, but when I came in for a drink there was a note from the neighbour saying they had borrowed the wheel barrow from the end of the garden. I can't see how they did it, unless they saw me reading there and didn't want to disturb me.
Nothing to do with the cornetto at all, oh no. (Although did you say it was mint, or what that on t'other thread??) Just I haven't seen you on a 10/10 thread before and I like your posts and am surprised but pleased you've joined us
I can't find wedges I like, 100, and I need comfy shoes. I walk a lot, normally, obviously not atm, but I always go back to flip flips and they are not my friends
Boco will go on the OTHER thread, because she will be worried that someone's feelings will be hurt, or that we will get into trouble and then will worry about her A level results and go on the proper thread.
Yes MrsC. I know, I know, I know. So do I. And even when I ordered Foxy's red sandals with uplift I thought - but how far can I walk in those? Can I walk the dog? No. Back to the flip flops, back to dumpy legs in skirt/dress that should only be worn with uplift.
It's such a pain shoes, you can't walk miles in heels, ir even flats, my back hurts if I wear flats for miles. There is a perfect height and it is hard to find.
I changed my name to be randomly superstitious about creepy dd2s sppooky drawings. I couldn't be superstitious as Boco because it goes against everything i believe in.
8 biscuits (vaired) lots of cocktails sambuca pitta bread with dips lots of crackers with cheese buckets of coffee a fish finger sandwich chocolate spread on toast
YES! It was creepy though. I never thought of actually cancelling or not going or anything, but she was really spooky because she can't draw like that usually.
I have eaten most of a GU chocolate torte this week I didn't know we had to confess you can eat wtf you like on the other thread as long as you get your 10 as well
Did you truly not think of cancelling, not even a little bit? I get spooked by things liked that, then I pull myself together. I always spit and whistle with a magpie too.
i've eaten 2 Cornetto type Flake things, a large portion of salad, my own weight in grapes (shared with ds) an apple, a banana, some onions (do they count?)
If we're confessing, I have eaten 1 1/2 cinnamon rolls with icing, a big splodge of soy icecream, some mini eggs which I found (goes against all my priciples but was desperate), far too much toast with marmite & blocks of cheese.
No, not of canceling, but it did give me a bit of a chill. I don't particularly like flying anyway, so the flames and everything did make me slightly uneasy.
I salute at magpies very subtly but dp always spots it.
I say 'hello mr magpie how's your wife' very very fast and very quietly. And dp always says 'you're SAYING IT! AND i saw you salute!'. He likes saying that loudly in public.
If this is the confession thread I can confess to getting very drunk by midday today at a party, then carrying on, in the hot sun, and having to leave my children at the party to come home and sleep.
I think that's why I feel a bit tetchy and cross with everyone in the world.
We're going on an plane next week, she said it was OUR plane, on fire in the sky.
I didn't really think it was an omen no. But it was a bit creepy and I wondered if it was something that would freak other people out. Some would have canceled apparently.
I got drunk last night. And then I went to pick ds2 up from a party and they offered us Pimms. And then I had that, and realized I was still drunk. And we drove home.
but fancy offering Pimms when you pick your child up? That's something isn't it? And it was in a sports pavillion not their home so they must have planned it.
Yes don't bother with the thread there's nothing more to learn, you can just see the picture if you want. It's not that interesting and I KNOW you lot would have dismissed it cooly and rationally, that's why i didn't ask YOU.
No no, not done it before, but what creeped me is that it was the three year old who can only draw 2 things, people with big arms coming out of their heads, and bugs with many legs. And once a camel with the face of a baby and eleven legs. But anyway, this is much much better than anything she's drawn before, and with the whole 'that's us, on fire' thing, it was odd.
It was pimms that i drank today. You forget it's alcohol don't you. And now hair of the dog is gin, but it's not helping, it's making it worse i think, maybe I should go to bed or go and hit something.
It's just a bit well wrong isn't it? Being in one I mean?
But [brightly] everything will be fine. I am going on one in August. Where are you going Boco?
Now MrsC, did you like Mad Men? Did you watch it? I watched it last week thinking you were watching it, and thinking you probably hated it. Though she wore some fine dresses, and I wondered if that might have swayed you a little?
Inlaws taking us to Poland. MIl is polish. They've booked and paid for it all as it's always been mils hope to go back to Krakow where she's from with dp. They've booked an apartment which looks nice, for 4 nights.
I never like planes, I always think they are wrong, but then I am terrified on the motorway as they seems very wrong too.
I loved Mad Men, 100, it was fab. Wasn't it strange though, watching them smoking at the table with the childrem? Seems so weird now. The dresses were great. When is it on each week?
And now I must go and watch it again, and still not know if you hate it, or whether perhaps you decided to give it another go THIS week, and then I'll sit and watch and wonder whether you hate the programme and me.
Oooh a holiday. Yes, it'll be fine, of course. DD2 is just being dramatic about air travel. Yes. [chipper]
YOU LIKED IT. Thank god. Oh yes, and lots of funny things early on. My favourite was when the two women were sitting smoking in the kitchen and one of them shouted through 'Sandy, sandy come in here' and the child walks in with a huge cellophane bag over her head and the mother says 'if you've ruined that dry cleaning I'll kill you young lady.'
lol.
Made me laugh.
10.00 on Sunday night. [prompt]
Am off now. Sorry for saying about a level results Boco, sorry.
yes, that was brilliant. I felt sorry for her though, with the short modelling contract. She tried so hard not to cry.
Right off to watch it properly. What will be here in the morning, empty bottles and a damp fire and bacon sandwiches or back to veg for a wheatgrass smoothie?
Do people think this or the other thread 8or maybe another place or, more pertinently, time altogether) would be most appropriate for some slightly more serious (emphasis on the slightly) musings?
<dives across room, grabs tequila bottle from UD and takes a swig>
do you think that loneliness can actually make a person - at least initially - more uncommunicative and hermit-like? because reading Franny's post a bit further down <revelas self as MN Classic user> about the sound of laughter drifting into the room just hit me very evocatively and I suddenly felt gut-wrenchingly LONELY - and realised that that is actually pretty much what I am Here, in the middle of bloody Berlin. My three dearest RL friends (2 of them English, funnily enough) are in the far north, the far west and the far south of Germany = far away. I do have a close friend here but - oh gawd, it's all Quite Complicated - the friendship is not actually good for me, she wants a lot more from me than I can give her, and increasingly I find myself avoiding her. On MN I'm a bit quiet and inept really, and envy admire others' intellect and Feeling for Saying the Right Thing and wit from the sidelines, but do just enjoy MNers' 'company' so much and have realised people like that are missing from my day-to-day life and I'm getting more quiet and inept - which probably means people like that wouldn't want to know me. Dearie me, this is navel-gazing in the extreme, n'e
I agree with banning bottom talk though.
Nice to 'see' you.
