lady_t_220Gel dye survived the wash with minimal patch fading despite producing copious amounts of purple foam. I'm going to take this as a good sign and hope I'm onto a winner.
Really should go into town and get those photo re-prints done. And see if I can find a few more christmas pressies while I'm at it.
Oh, and Char's b'day gift...
*sighs* Good job I get paid extra at the end of this week for taking the grand'rents to the optician etc. I get day-trip bonus, basically for just hanging around and helping them in and out of taxis and stuff.
Booooring, but can't complain. Must remember to take book next time.
Uh, but I digress.
Should go into town... haven't QUITE worked up the enthusiasm. Because it's cold and grey and crappy out there. Oh, and you go away for 10 days and they raise the damn bus fares! *grouses*
10 days and they raise the bus fares, suddenly there's a Subway where Coombs used to be, they've slapped a nasty grey fascia on the new Rushes building and they've opened a fucking gigantic Woolies in a part of the town center I never, ever walk to. Now I have to go there just to see what's in it on the offchance they have toys that I want.
Sheesh... one vacation and everything goes nuts.
*pokes self* Be more energetic and motivated, damnit!
Actually, I'll tell you what this particular bout of sluggishness is due to. Felt cold before taking a shower this morning, felt even colder after I was done, had to leave the house with damp hair, was chilly sitting around in the opticians for 2 hours and then got drizzled on on the way home. Basically it's just way too icky cold to want to do anything.
I need a nice fluffy hat and Hugh's dorky, Dr. Seuss scarf all laid out on a nice toasty blanket... or indeed a nice fluffy jar of chocolate spread and a dorky Hugh all laid out on a nice toasty Wolvermuse. Cause that would do.

Actually, I can't even get the purple haze cream in Leicester which is why I was using pink in the first place...

*cries*
