    I think I know where I am. Back from France having serious body pain from a couple of weeks of wind surfing kite surfing sand surfing paragliding hanggliding sand dune bodyboarding and fishing and swimming. I have not hurt this much all over since the first time I tried to compete at martial arts and got my ass handed to me badly before by a disqualification getting the chance to compete again and dragging myself like karate kid back into the ring _without_ magic mr miagi hot hand massage - got my ass handed to me even worse the second time.

    I wish ☹️


    Lying on my bed dying with a headache all day since I woke up ☹️ it's beginning to clear I think at last.

    AWWW! I did hope! I spent my (long ago ) childhood longing for a cat. All i was allowed was a budgie and the free goldfish the rag and bone man gave away.

    All things come to those who wait! Not quite sure how I ended up with SO MANY CATS!

    I think some wine, a bath and an early night are in my not-too-distant future. I feel like I should be preparing to hibernate with the other sensible mammals.

    Happy Saturday, wherers! :)

    My long driveway has turned into the loveliest wild flower meadow. There is a narrow path through the thigh high greenery. I am seeing wild flowers that are new here.

    Was so looking forward all day to putting my feet up with a new book my friend highly recommended.
    Read 4 pages and it's too highbrow for my liking.
    I'm at a loose end now with no reading material :(

    I bought two new books on Friday and I'm itching to read them but I won't let myself until I have my coursework handed in on Monday. The Body by Bill Bryson and Anxious People by Fredrick Backman. (Did I spell that right? I don't think so!)

    Anyway, I can sniff them though... Mmmmm new book smell!!! You can indulge in this most delicious of new book activities too! :D

    Couchside listening to Jagged Little Pill (thanks Onshuh). She was only 19 when that was released. :eek: Remember it so well, and thinking at the time that she was genius. Must give the new one a twirl; "Reasons I Drink", made me laugh so much when I heard it!

    Back from dinner and a stroll around Grafton St area in Dublin. City is dead as, just so sad for a Saturday night. I'e decided it's time to just get on with it: no more news, waiting, cancelling or talking about when this is over. So, replanning, and looking forward to a different type of autumn and winter. Needs must. I smell lots of new books :D And oregano :p

    Hope y'all well.
    I haven't had a cat in years, and now I'm not travelling, perhaps it's time :)

    I bought The Body a few days back, really liked A Complete History of Almost Everything so I'm looking forward to reading it but It's gone to my Mum first as she's going to be off her feet for a while after an operation.
    I haven't read much this week because life has provided me with plenty of distractions.

    @cali girl. I drove through the area of my city last night where all the nightclubs are. Haven't been near there on a weekend in months and must admit it was weird to see it so empty. Usually there would be people falling all around the place. Running out in front of cars. Starting fights. Getting sick. Hugging, kissing, laughing. Eating manky kebabs. But there was nothing, except a huge line of taxis and nobody getting into them. Sometimes I say .. "if I just woke from a coma would I know the world had changed?" Well last night I thought.. 'yeah, I'd know there was something seriously wrong here!!'

    I read the first few pages of it in someone elses house last month and been meaning to get a copy since. It's always annoyed me that I live in this body but don't really understand the workings of it. Like it's a bit mad that all humans aren't experts on our own bodies!

    Not everyone wants to know how the sausage is made, others skip right to the bits about the sausage. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

    Re Alanis...
    Just double checked... released when she was 21, but written when she was 19/20.
    Just wikipedia'd her, really mad Catholic upbringing, mixed with travel, precocious talent, mixed up with early relationships/being teen tv star. I love people who overcome AND are dry and sarcastic :o This from her is what's making me laugh right now:


    BB, yup, that was exactly it... like it wasn't post-apocalyptic or anything, just exactly as you say, not right at all.

    I'm awake, soon to be asleep again, to dream of giant teabags ...

    I can't believe Alanis Morissette was so young when Jagged Little Pill was released. The cynicism and life experience in the lyrics made me think she was in her 30s and just had great genes.

    I won't be blaming any wherers for my late night musings tonight, especially not Onshuh and Cali ...

    I remember getting that album and there was some very clever wordplay on it along with what i took as a voice of experience, could NOT believe how young she was.
