Lar’s birthday was on Saturday but because the weather here was so crappy we decided he really deserved an entire weekend to celebrate. Or more precisely, he just started to referring to it as “my birthday weekend” and I went along with it.
Now, you might be expecting tales of hijinks and tomfoolery, but it was actually a quiet weekend. We watched movies, ordered pizza and made a dent in our Diet Coke stockpile (six packs are two for one at Tesco – we’ve still got eight piled high next to the couch!). We went to get dim sum, I made a strangely-shaped cake and Larry has become Ironman in his new Nintendo DS game. We might even go crazy later on and play Connect 4. Except that Larry is now leading our “tournament” 40 – 14 so I’m not sure I want to put myself out there for that again.
Anyway, the sun is now back out and, like a cat, I feel a short sun nap coming on. Hopefully it’ll stick around for tomorrow too!
