As I needed to use my holiday time or risk losing it, I had a day off work on Friday. It turned out to be a fantastic day; I woke up early, enjoyed a cup of tea, and indulged in a captivating book in bed (definitely NOT 50 Shades of Grey).
I took a brisk walk to the shops to purchase some food and scored some lamb at a bargain price – delicious! A friend of mine avoids lamb as he finds them too adorable, which I find quite strange. Hand me a penknife and lock me in a room with Bambi, and I assure you, I would be enjoying venison in no time.
Upon returning home, I did some painting after a lengthy hiatus and then welcomed my nerdiest friend over for two games of Chess…each of us won one game. Interestingly, I’ve noticed that I never seem to win the first game; it feels like my brain operates like a steam engine, taking quite a while to reach full speed.
I also got back my computer, which was graciously updated, alongside my hard drive. Tonight, I have a selection of new films to choose from. These moments remind me that I must acquire more skills to repay the favors I receive. Honestly, unless someone is seeking a witty remark, a sharp insult, or advice on sarcasm, I feel somewhat useless.
Anyway, I must dash; I have some letters to draft for the Archbishop of Brisbane. I suspect he’s rather upset with them since he starts with “Dear Hellbound parasites.”
