Here's
the fireplace and sofa where I was doing my 'lady of leisure'
impression. To the left of the photo you can just make out the outline
of Xiao Man Tou ('little steamed bun', a most inappropriate name for my
biggest, fattest cat.) In front and to the left of the fire is Dodo,
curled up on a quilt. (And yes, my walls are striped in red and orange.
There are also pink and yellow stripes a little further down.)
I
visited Kitty early Sunday evening. He has become very mellow in the
last little while. We had a full-on love and purring session which we
both enjoyed.
Then I went over to Jane's. I
joined Andy, Simon and Charlie who were finished dinner and hanging
out. We admired the 5 pairs of flip-flops that Charlie and Jane had
bought. Yes, 5 pairs. You see, they were on sale AND they are going to
Kenya next week AND summer is coming. The 'Reef' flip flops were nice
but it was hard to get really excited about them...
Today
I recorded a workbook in the morning and 5 shows for Enjoy. I got the
giggles pretty bad a couple of times, we were all feeling a little
silly. It was fun. Then I went to the dentist to have my crown fitted.
That was less fun. If all goes well he'll glue it in forever next
Monday.
Gosh, what a dull blog. I'll leave you with a bit of humor:
"These
terrorism warning pictures are taken from a US government website. The
fun thing is that these pictures are so ambiguous they could mean
anything! Here are a few interpretations."
Apparently,
these images are considered 'sensitive material' and thus I am not able
to copy them onto my blog. It's a pity because they are extremely
funny. So here is something I copied from someone else's blog a few
weeks back however I didn't note down who it was. (Bowzer, was it you?)
Please let me know so I can credit your fabulous wit!
If
you remember the original Hollywood Squares and its comics, this may
