Saturday Post 328

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding only 694 steps (not leaving the house until dinnertime, see; will hopefully have a more substantial plodding total to report before the night's out) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'A Word For The New Year (2)'. Anyways, events for today?

• Yay, 2nd consecutive awesome sleep last night! When nature called, I turned the bedside lamp on and groaned because the clock read 12:05am meaning I couldn't get an awesome sleep because 'twas Saturday already only both last year and this year I vaguely recall starting the new year with one consecutive week of awesome sleeps. Then suddenly I remember the clock's ten minutes fast; as long as I used the pot :P quickly it'd still be bore midnight and I could say I got an awesome night's sleep because I hadn't woken to relieve myself after midnight until after the Sun had risen! XD
• When PIG mum started a-THUMPING around upstairs @ 6:20am, I awoke and used the pot :P again before quickly falling back asleep, since I knew PIG mum would get noisy again one hour later when she went upstairs and changed for work!
• Sure enough, @ 7:20am, noisy PIG mum went a-THUMPING around upstairs and got changed for wok; that was my wakeup call for another pot :P before I spend ten minutes beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh*
• PIG mum enters my room to hit me with the eye goo before leaving for her half day's work. After dearest dad's retucked Alaistair and me back into bed and promised to stay quiet, thus allowing us to sleep in peace, we cuddle and happily snore, me waking twice more for the pot :P before Kim announced her arrival promptly @ 10am.
• At 3:18pm I've played one game of Bejeweled lasting 6:09. Now, lemme finish one more game lasting between five and six minutes, and I'll promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Now @ 3:29pm I've finished another game of Bejeweled lasting 5:50. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, coz I've actually already managed to play two more memorable games, one lasting 7:07 and the other 8:26! But I've got less than thirty minutes left, so just briefly:
• Kim helped me up; I brushed teeth, did a stinky unspeakable and took my toothbrush out to charge.
• Munched breakfast (pity Kim refuses to cook the bread yummy and crunchy with butter) and read for seventy minutes first up, reaching pg. 100 @ 11:11am, finishing pg. 111 @ 11:26am, reaching pg. 125 @ 11:42am and reaching pg. 150 @ 12:07pm. Whoops I was too happily reading and Kim was too happily absorbed in tapping @ her smartphone we passed midday without realising it. XD
• I quickly used the loo for one tinkle, Kim made me another mug of white tea with two sugars, fed me half a slice of cheese and I rang Aunty Lai, chatting with her for 8:15.
• Showered - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also sang 21% of my shorter second-favourite song slowly, softly but most hatefully out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers.
• Dried, creamed and rekitted lunch was one bowl of the yummy fried rice Kim had cooked for me while I showered plus my third and final mug of white tea with two sugars. Over lunch, I continued reading, reaching pg. 175 @ 1:41pm.
• Used the loo once more for two tinkles before Kim left @ 2pm. She's back toms @ 8:30am.
• Will read for one more hour and munch the yummy banana PIG mum left me for arvo tea.
• Going to Matthew's place for dinner! Pity he'll prolly not be there; I'll be bored outta my brain! XD
• Toms: just church, nothing special. Would love lunch out with other ESS people but basically resigned to a Happy Meal with the parents from Maccas plus a stressful arvo @ the hands of PIG mum. *sigh*
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
