A Day in the Life

Bee has announced her intention to document every hour of today, and post the results on Monday. I think she's being a bit inconsiderate - She should write it at 0:00 on Sunday and post it straight away instead of keeping us in suspense for a whole extra day, but I'm sure that it will be worth the wait.

I wouldn't dream of keeping you waiting, so I'm going to tell you in advance what I might be doing today.

Shopping

I will probably get some food, perhaps even some clothes, some beer and a new carrier bag, to replace the one that split. I might toy with the idea of splashing out and buying some banks (at £500bn they're practically giving them away), we'll see.

Reading

I've still got a pile of books to read, so I'll finish the Agatha Christie I'm reading (The Mysterious Mr Quin - a book of short stories), and move onto one by Henning Mankell. More realistically, I'll probably just manage 5 pages of Mr Quin.


Eating and Drinking

Having gone shopping today, and with Helena not coming until tomorrow, I'll almost certainly have far too much to eat. In fact, I'll probably eat all of the food I buy today and have to go shopping again tomorrow. I'm likely to have a cornish pasty and potato salad for lunch, some kind of ready meal for my dinner, and snack on crisps, breadsticks and humous. Washed down with Guinness, of course.

Housework

I will need to vaccuum, because if I leave it much longer I won't be able to find the floor. I also need to clean the bathroom, but I might just put some clothes in the washing machine instead - there's only so much time available, unfortunately, so I can't do everything.

Television

I will of course be watching the news at 6.00 (even though Aimilia isn't on it at weekends), and no doubt will find some other stuff to watch as well. As long as it's in Greek, it doesn't count as time wasting/vegging/being a couch potato.

Blogging

I'll write some crap in my blog. I'll mention that my first ever post was a year ago today, and that I've enjoyed myself so much that I've almost forgiven Bee and co for coercing me into starting it in the first place. I'll point out that my first post was about things that weren't happening, money, drugs and Aimilia Kenevezou, so nothing much has changed. I'll also say a big thankyou to everyone who's read and commented for making this worthwhile.

Thankyou.
