Long weekend

So It's been pretty hectic at work of late and I've been going a bit mad. I decided to take a 'flex day' on Friday (25th November) and a days holiday on Monday (28th November), Saturday - Sunday are freebies.

I had high hopes of how I was going to spend my time: quality time with myself, relaxing etc. but unfortunately I'm absolutely useless at relaxing and I didn't really have the fulfilling time I thought I was going to have. But like B*witched once said: C'est la vie.

Steve and I watched 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' Friday night. It's your classic American big-budget event and you really have to suspend your belief throughout. To be honest, ever since I saw that documentary about the woman who had her face and arms ripped off by a chimp (gruesome stuff) my feelings towards them have changed, no longer do I think of them as the friendly PG tips drinking/friends of Michael Jackson but violent predators waiting to take over the planet!

Friendly Chimps

As per your last blog, we've downloaded 'Our Idiot Brother' and look forward to watching it shortly.

Sunday, Steve and I went to the Mad Moose for lunch (as we had a 20% off voucher!) I had sweet chili chicken noodles, he had a pork roast dinner. After dinner and on my request, we went to ASDA (<3) to buy food for the week. I ditched the gym in favour of getting in bed to watch the new series of 'Misfits' on 4OD. I wasn't entirely impressed, my favourite character has left (that Irish one).

Monday/Today was/is the best day. I got my lazy bottom out of bed, drove Steve to work, got to the gym for 9:30am (I've lost my blasting edge a bit) then had a walk round town . Upon returning home I walked my Puggy and did the washing up.

I wish I could tell you that I'd bought loads of lovely stuff recently but I haven't because I am totes skint.
There's lots and lots of things I want (naturally) I have made you a little collage of a few items. Enjoy.

Starbucks Gingerbread Lattes.

 

I can't get enough of these bad boys. I could drink them every day.

Recent events in my life:

Brother Ryan moved in!
He's made himself at home in my spare room (formally your Sponge Bob room) even purchasing the most disgusting piece of furniture from Argos I have ever seen...

If it's possible for a shitty 'Wardrobe' to transport you back to New York this is it.

Love and Pugs!
