Back home after a great week’s holiday…
Immediate tasks (not New Year resolutions because I don’t do that kind of shite): Must clean out flat before the end of 2004. And get on with work. (Too many January deadlines…) Then some blogging, but not properly till next week.
Christmas tallies
Hangovers: 2. Different kinds of alcohol consumed: 7, I think, including the sip of aniseed-flavoured stuff that I didn’t like (and counting fizzy wine separately from the other kinds). Too much gin. Gin is bad, bad, bad. And this tastes like alcoholic Mini Milk lollipops. Wowee.
Calories: Who knows? Who cares?
Movies: 5 (very light – and rather random – viewing this year): The Wicked Lady (DVD); Victor/Victoria; What’s Up Doc?; Mouse Hunt; at the cinema: The Incredibles ( fantastic! go see!)
Shopping: shamefully self indulgent, and mostly very pink (wanna see my pink boots?).

Pink boots? Yes please.
You? Pink? Boots? Shoe fetish? This IS something new to me….
You live and learn, sis. (Did you think the pink & brown style sheet was an accident?)
Hope you all got what you wanted, as for me – socks, aftershave- sorry, that should be “sport shower gel ststem”, booze and lots of other trinkets. I’ve just made my annual trip round to the charity shop to drop of lots of gear. A lot of people round here seem to do this! Though I did get the DVD of the C4s hilarious, underrated ‘Peep Show’.
We’ve had the family up over the hols, first the teetotlers, then came the hardcore boozer wing, it was bit like that bit at the end of Zulu and they all suddenly turn up on the hills…
…they’re taunting us…
Com’on – where’s the boots then?? I wanna see!!!
(And it’s sort of a pale salmon colour – and very dark, almost black, brown – on my screen, it looks very artistic but it’s not very pink!)
Pink boots! Oh, you know I want to see them! Yay for pink boots!
profgrrl: hee hee, knew you’d love the idea. I’ll try to get a decent photo of them to post.
Jules: I suppose the pink could be described as pale salmon (which *is* pink, isn’t it?) but the brown isn’t that dark. But you’ve just reminded me that I meant to check out the codes for the colours a while ago; I’m not sure that they’re very web-safe. Hmm. Some HTML tinkering may be in order.
Steve: I have a big bag of stuff for the charity shop too. Things I haven’t worn for 5 years… and still hate to clear them out. (I’m big on ‘well, it might come in useful sometime’.)
