tuesday post

good evening! TWFT topic was 'paying attention'! and still no plodding total from em. >< but, since it's a tuesday, here's my christmas wishlist!
-a fun pack of cereal
-a packet of glow in the dark stars for my room
-a kit kat cookies and cream
-a teddy bear! em loves teddy bears :)
-the mission impossible movies!
-the first twilight movie
-two more goldfish, to replace poor silver and bronze, who passed away mid last year.
-a new novel! my favourite authors are raymond e. feist and janny wurts; i also like david feintuch and lian (sp?) hearn
-lastly, PIG mum has PROMISED me a really BIG present if i stop asking her for my walking stick and walkbelt. well, the biggest thing i can think of ... i want an i-phone! :P or whatever the new google one is called ... the g-phone? :P
-so like i said, i don't really ask for that much, santa, so please be nice! :P anyways, today's events:
-again, go em! who managed to swing herself over to use the pot :P once this morning without falling to her death. o_O :P back in bed, i saw that again, while the sky was much lighter, the sun still hadn't come up yet, so i thanked my lucky stars that rainbow was too busy snoring her head off to bounce over to me and beg me to take that bloody annoying splint off. :P
-when dearest dad got up for work, em swung herself around to use the pot :P again, then swung herself back to bed, tucked ela's little thumb in gently for some more sleep, and snored her head off with rainbow. :P
-when PIG mum dug me up, i swung myself over to use the pot :P once more, only i felt like doing a stinky unspeakable, so much thanks to PIG mum who rolled me in, passed me a mug of water to drink - which i was very careful to hold 'correctly', of course - and helped me wipe afterwards. i stayed for two tinkles before calling PIG mum, then got kitted for the day.
-i sat on the sofa outside and watched seven's morning news, read out by someone (not the usual lady, but i've forgotten the reader's name, sorry. :p) then i watched ABC's midday report. the most interesting surname i found watching the news was 'wharington', the surname of some skipper from some boat running the sydney to hobart.
-lunch was rice, lotsa bok choy and some chicken, with a glass of plain milk. PIG mum gleefully forced poor ela to hold onto the milk carton before ordering era to uncap the bottle, and did you know, there's a 'correct' way to do that too!
-sylvia jie jie came to look after me as PIG mum went to do some exercise test the doctor had ordered. so we just chatted away.
-i tootled online after sylvia jie jie left, until lisa arrived. earlier, i wrote out an xmas card to lisa and all her adjectives. :p
-a nice hot shower - i washed my hair today.
-i had a tinkle just before lisa flipped the water off, one more when i was drying myself. i rekitted myself, then had one more tinkle as lisa was jamming my AFO on.
-i made my arvo tea. a cheese - too bad, lisa only allowed one slice of cheese, so it was ENTIRELY too thin - ham and mayo sandwhich, cut into four squares, and a cup of tea sweetened with a single spoonful of sugar, my cup of the day to hold 'incorrectly'.
-a bit of trouble walking out to lisa's car. PIG mum grew pissed at me, i think, for touching the wall with my right hand, so she gleefully forced me to walk all the way in and back out. argh. ><
-but we finally left. at garbo, lisa plopped me into sparkless; she offered to wheel me, offered me a night to relax? dunno why, but i replied, "thanks, but no thanks, lisa. i'll help push too."
-so we hit lotsa different stores and picked up pressies for PIG mum and dearest dad! i'm almost certain that dad doesn't read my blog; so i can say i bought him the shrek 3 DVD (up wasn't out yet, too bad. i'll buy it for him for his bday then, i think.) but i'd better not write what i bought for PIG mum, coz she claims that she does read my blog from time to time.
-dinnertime! argh, meaniepoo PIG mum already told lisa that i wasn't to have a two piece feed for dinner; also, i was only to have ONE unhealthy thing, ie. chips or a shake. so i chose the low-fat shake, and had a BBQ bacon pocketful; lisa had a five fruits juice and a twister.
-after dinner, we continued wheeling around; this time, to pick up a bday card for PIG mum, and an xmas card for the parents. we stopped at a table in the lower foodcourt so i could write the cards. then we hit stacks to buy a bag to put the pressies in, and some lolly shop too, so i could gaze longingly at the sweets there. :P
-lisa took me to the loo once before tootling us home. i let erf sit sideways, firstly coz it was the last trip of the day and secondly, it was so dark lisa wouldn't have noticed even if she'd looked.
-i gave her a hug, thanked her lots for taking me out christmas shopping, and asked her for a pinkie promise that richard (her hubby) wouldn't kill me after reading out lisa's stepmum list. :p she gave me the pinky promise, and laughed, saying, "richard will LOVE the list! you'll be his new best friend!" :P
-i tootled back online; told PIG mum what i'd bought dearest dad for xmas. hope he'll like!
-anyways, toms: lunch with kylie and mel at grill'd! i've never been there before; hope it's yummy! and chrissy's coming in the arvo - hopefully not too late! :P
cheers,
em. ^^
