Three Days Of Stuff

deird_ljI think I've finally got my sleeping patterns back to normal, post-play. For once I'm not going to work already exhausted! Sleep is good.
Friday was Anzac Day, so I had the day off from work. I spent some time industriously cleaning my house (mopping floors and all!) and then spent the rest of the day watching Farscape. I'm almost finished - only six more episodes (and one movie) to go.
On Saturday I babysat Caleb while my sister and brother-in-law did renovations downstairs. Every few minutes he'd sit on his toy car, and anxiously say "peese?" and, once again, I would push him round the room making "brrm" noises. We also played hide-and-seek (with Caleb walking behind a chair and me asking "Now, where on earth has Caleb gone?" in a baffled voice), read some stories (in German, of all things), and played the piano.
It was a fun day.
Mum and I went shopping for my birthday present, which will be delivered tomorrow. She said I shouldn't really be allowed to use it until my birthday, but there's no way I'll be able to resist once it's in my house.
I also had enough time this weekend to cook dinner twice. Which might not sound like much, but I tend to cook in BULK, so cooking twice means I now have ten frozen meals on hand. Even if I ate nothing else, I could still last nearly a fortnight just on those.
After making nearly twenty pages of notes, I think I've finally come up with a good idea for my current fic challenge. Now I just need to start writing the thing.
In other news, my cat has started sitting next to me whenever I watch tv. Which is wonderful, but if I finish a dvd I'm so afraid of disturbing him that I just sit there letting the 'front page' play theme music at me, rather than putting in a different disk...
