Mistletoe and Wine
I dreamt last night that He made me go to a Cliff Richard concert. Bizarre. I seem to recall kicking and screaming and desperately trying to cover my ears...
Good weekend though, apart from that. Got horrifically drunk at Little Miss C and Walkabout's on Friday and didn't make it to bed til 4am, after Little Miss C and I decided that because we were drunk we needed a walk, and proceeded to walk around the block over and over again for an hour and a half because we got talking and didn't notice our fingers turning blue.
Suffered all day Saturday and lay in bed in pyjamas eating cheese straws and watching Friends. Sometimes it's nice to do nothing.
Sunday we woke up in a frighteningly good mood and decided, along with PianoMan, to go and buy a Christmas tree. Please don't ask me why. Got the tree home, and then of course He and PianoMan had to saw off the bottom and fit it in a stand. Honestly, you wouldn't believe how difficult two 21st century men can find it to use a saw to cut off a bit of tree... but anyway, they got there in the end (after almost losing several fingers and demolishing the garden furniture), and we celebrated with lots of red wine and twinkly lights.
I'd forgotten that Christmas trees are one of the few plus points of Christmas. Along with the aforementioned licence to drink too much and eat chocolate for breakfast.
