today.....

.....

i woke up at around 7:40. At least I think it was 7:40. It was one of those times when you wake up, have about 6 minutes of clarity before succumbing to the warm envelope of darkest sleep. By the time I woke up again it was nearing 12pm where I hit the other end of the awakening spectrum. That is to say when I saw the distinctive blue on black indicating 11:57, I was up.
That isn't to say that I got out of bed in a haze and wandered to the bathroom for my morning wash trying to drag myself out of sleep.
Quite simply; I was up.
Up.
Awake.
In an instant I was the absolute opposite of Asleep.

After the 3 minutes of blood inducing brushing and 45 seconds of equally blood inducing shaving and the 12 and a half minute bad excuse for a shower I was downstairs ready to make a bite to eat. Why was I in such a hurry? No reason. Just wanted to be up and about earlier.

The rest of the day was actually a bit of a let down after the initial tush of activity; just sat around watching telly and playing a bit of Dawn Of War. Listened to a bit more of my recently acquired Chopin collection and ate too many chocolate covered biscuits of various description for my own good. This year Ive decided to open and devour all of them boxes of chocolates and biscuits before they get hidden in various cupboards, never to see the light of another chistmas dawn....

Dinner was another has job of whatever is in the fridge. Mum's ticket to HK was booked for the 10th Jan; just a single mind as she's discovered the joys of buying tickets only when you need them for ultimate flexibilty. It does mean that she won't be around for when my Birthday arrives but that's not really an issue. Besides, only one person has ever really made a point about my birthday and she isn't really talking to me anymore so well.... who cares? Her booking her flight does mean that I have to think about my own trip out there. Really would like to avoid the CNY and Tobes will be going back on 17th Feb so... well, Not much to choose from really. Just got to get around to it.
