βSo!
After a disaster of a morning/afternoon/early evening…OK. I’ll start again.
So!
After a pretty epic Feck-it-up Friday, things began to settle after I visited Him and his Jim. For one sweaty hour, I was Laura Croft, (without the boobs obviously) and I ROCKED.
(I no longer fall over when trying to lunge. THAT, my friends, is progress!
Yay me and screw you tummy-muscles-like-a-bingo-wing. I’m gonna find youuuuuu! π)
Anybuts. π
Mini-Me ate her dinner in 9 minutes tonight.
It was “home made bread covered with ripe unblemished organic tomatoes and cheese from a Virgin cow, accompanied by new season potatoes gently coated in free range dust and gluten free oil from the rain forest”.
Yes.
I fed her Pizza and waffles.
Because I’m on Feck-it-up Friday so I may as well continue through with the theme.
After an unusually calm bedtime, with my two little munchkins snoring, I needed food.
I RESISTED the temptation to ring the Him and tell him to come home ONLY if he was carrying a biryani or he’d be bludgeoned to death with a Peppa pig car.
I also decided I’d be good and NOT have a Friday night tipple, because I am energised and clean and organic and fabulous.
And then…
Then, I caught the last 10 minutes of Corrie and watched THE most moving and amazingly awful death of Kylie Platt.
(Shut up. Yes. I may teach film studies for a living, but at the minute, Tree Fu Tom is the intellectual highpoint of my day.)
So Corrie was impressive and horrible and terrible and by the time the Him came in, I was BAWLING.
His panic was quickly replaced by hysterical laughter when I eventually slabbered “Kylie …just …a….died and it’s. ..so ooh. ..sad!” πππ
His reply included a LOT of expletives and the line “The last time I came home to this you were pregnant.”
Pause.
Terror. π
And now he’s panicking that I’m up the dudu again and I’m probably going to have to do a test to bring his stress levels down from 90. πππ
(I’m not! Calm the cacks.)
So with the trauma of the most realistic portrayal of last breath I’ve seen since Marley & Me, the horrific sadness of her last message to her kids, not to mention David Platt’s heart wrenching “NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”, I did what everyone else who was there did.
I poured a very large Gin with a tiny dash of tonic.
And my nerves are just about settling so I MAY need another one.
Or three.
You know… for Kylie?
May she Rest in Soapland Heaven. ππ
Happy Fecked-it-up Friday Ladybelles.
Feel free to tell me how you Fecked-it-up today. Or rub it in how your day was fablus.
Whatever.
Cheers Bitcheepoooos!
