well, this is a change. i'm actually at a loss for something to do. riley's fast asleep & most things that have to be done today have already been done. today's washing is almost all done (just has to be folded & put away) tomorrow's washing is already soaking in the machine. i've had something to eat. i've read all my email .. so what now?
perhaps i'll put some more pics of riley online. that's always a good thing. 
nineteen ways to .. - 06:43 PM
(filed under 'general')
something which was forwarded to me today. i've seen it before, but it's a classic & quite amusing & uplifting. it's even a clean joke!
nineteen ways to keep a healthy level of insanity:
- at lunchtime, sit in your parked car with sunglasses on and point a hair dryer at passing cars. see if they slow down.
- page yourself over the intercom - don't disguise your voice.
- every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with that.
- put your garbage can on your desk and label it "in".
- put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. once everyone has gotten over their caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.
- in the memo field of all your cheques, write "for sexual favours".
- finish all your sentence with "in accordance with the prophecy".
- don't use any punctuation.
- as often as possible, skip rather than walk.
- ask people what sex they are. laugh hysterically after they answer.
- specify that your drive-through order is "to go".
- sing along at the opera.
- go to a poetry recital and ask why the poems don't rhyme.
- put mosquito netting around your work area and play a tape of jungle sounds all day.
- five days in advance, tell your friends you can't attend their party because you're not in the mood.
- have your co-workers address you by your wrestling name, "rock hard".
- when the money comes out of the atm, scream "i won, i won, i won!! 3rd time this week!!!"
- when leaving the zoo, start running towards the parking lot, yelling "run for your lives, they're loose!"
- tell your children over dinner, "due to the economy, we are going to have to let one of you go".
surely not already? - 05:16 PM

i'm having some mild lower back pain which i usually only feel when it's that time of the month, which, for obvious reasons, it hasn't been for at least nine months. i'm breastfeeding, so surely it couldn't be that? i mean, i know it's meant to come back eventually, but this soon?
time will tell, i suppose.

i've been waiting for about three months for a nursing chair to arrive at babyco & i was going to call them on the way home from the shops today to see if it had finally arrived. if it had, i thought that since i was on the road already, i'd go to collect it.
it did arrive today, but i forgot to call them until now, when i'm already home. i could have been using it by now. poo bum. i really hate that. 
smile for me? - 04:52 PM
(filed under 'baby')
it may have only been a fluke, but i just kissed riley on the head as he was having a nap & when i moved my face back again he was smiling. i don't care if it might have been just a lucky coincidence, it still made me smile.
