Someonegot into the lift with me the other night

and started coughing and spluttering and hacking and wheezing without their hand over their mouth, filling the whole lift with EVIL MICROBES. And now I have a horrible cold. Why aren't people taught to put their hand over their mouth when they cough? I am serious. It is really revolting. I ache. I can't take another day off work. Gah. Whiny whine whine. Apologies, I'm feeling all sorry for myself.

Three beers last night...

And then home sensibly early. Am I good or what? Lilly and I went to say goodbye to Nishma yesterday, she is off to Italy for nine months. Jess came too, briefly, with Leo. Lilly, I hope you got home OK!

I just had lunch in the Uni Parks with Jess and Leo

Leo is the best baby ever. She tumbled over but was all brave, and then she went straight for my diamond necklace (good taste, that girl), and if you say "a-da' to her she replies "a-da"! Not scintillating conversation yet I admit, but very sweet.

Neil downloaded Skype onto our home computer last night

I don't think we have a microphone though. Maybe I ought to get one of those and a web cam too.

Picture of health

No booze for me last night! I read my book and had a reasonably early night and this morning I changed the bed and did a load of laundry and did the washing up and tidied the kitchen and had some breakfast and showered and dressed and cycled to work all before ten. All bright and chirpy.

I am somewhat hungover

Lilly you are a bad influence on me and it is not the other way around, Oh no. Poor Neil had to put up with me coming home late and squifffy last night and trying to make a morrocan themed supper. The kitchen looks like a couscous bomb has hit it.

I am so jealous

Rachel is going to Vancouver on business. So jealous. Very happy for her obviously but mainly hugely jealous. I have got the travelling urge.

Nobody knows that I am here.

This amuses me strangely.

Ooh it's so clever

Lilly is not the only preson who can do linky linky
