Nov. 27th, 2008 04:43 pmWell, I don't seem to have come down with the ook so far... I figure if I can make it another day or so I'll probably be safe.
The cavity-wall insulating people finally came and did their thing this morning. So I did have the utter joy of being woken up by some workmen drilling six milion little holes and pumping random foamy whatnot into the walls. Though that said, I have now more or less proven I can doze through pretty much anything if given half a chance. Because while they woke me up at eight, I don't think I was actually conscious of much before I finally hauled myself out of bed about an hour and a half later.
Also, I have all my christmas cards written, and by some magical fluke I wound up with exactly the right number. Don't ask me how I managed to do that without actually counting or screwing any up for once. Most of the packages are packed, I'm just waiting on three that aren't yet here, either due to slow mail-order or complete lack of finding anything suitable thus far. But things are coming together with a degree of organisation this year, which makes a nice change from last year when it was totally and entirely absent. But that may be because I'm not deathly ill with flu right now. That sort of thing can make a difference.
I just need some brown paper, which I have handily forgotten to buy every single time I've been out in the last month.
All that said, happy gratuitous food consumption day to all those who celebrate. I'll be thinking of you, tentatively, while I pre-emptively avoid heavy foods just in case my stomach changes its mind and decides it does want to be ill after all.
