Hurrah, it's Friday! And it's payday=takeaway dinner day. And it's the last day of work I've got to work for a whole week, so what's not to like? I have various things to do this weekend which might end in my early demise, so bear with me...There's also the small matter of replacing the computer chair...See, we've had it for the better part of six years and it wasn't even a proper 'puter chair, just a large black leather effect swively one that we bought back in the days when we had money to buy large black leather effect swively effect chairs, and it's had a rather hard paper round ever since. And it dieded. So, we don't have an official Chair for the PC at the moment. We've tried the footstool that came with aforementioned black leather effect thingie, one of the dining table chairs (currently being used), the fold up chair that usually lives in the garden, and the rocking chair. In hindsight, the rocking chair was a Bad Idea...Now, if it were just Hubster and I, there wouldn't really be an issue, but there are others in the household to consider. The back of the original chair was used as ambush point, snoozing perch, place to sit and look at the back garden, place to sit and look cute, place to leave small furry mouse and other feline pursuits. Needless to say, there's going to be mutiny in the ranks if something isn't sorted soon.
So, in addition to sourcing new cat toy chair this weekend, I/We have to acheive the following:
* Cut the hedge. Hubster (now he's fixed the clippers again after the fuse going) has already made a start, but there's a whole lotta hedge there...
* Get the car serviced.
* Do the food shopping
* Buy some tapestry kits for Mother as a gift from Granny. It's complicated...
* Try and buy paint in colours that might not still exsist, it's been so long since we decided on them.
* Get bird food (very important)
* Get cat food (even more important)
* Endeavour to find the time to molest each other in a filthy manner
* Watch the 2nd disc of Two Towers whilst armed with caramel popcorn to lure the bunny out from under the sofa with. Possibly move onto Return of the King.
* Try not to either get lost driving to my brother's new house, or comitting patricide when he can't read the map properly on the way there.
That last ones going to be a whole barrel of laughs...I'll post about it...possiby with piccies of my bro *everyone goes 'awww' until they see the piccies and go 'arrgghhh!'*
I might even try to post on You Know Where this weekend. I owe a couple of people a strip. Well, they know what I mean...
