(at Dad’s 11.30) Made porridge oats today for breakfast which was delicious. We both have mildly raised cholesterol, the difference being that Dad’s doctor didn’t scare him to death with it—simply said, “you have a higher risk of stroke in the next ten years.” (he’s 82) and they both laughed like drains. *rolls eyes* So we’ll have porridge every day as well as granary toast and Flora. Won’t do us any harm, anyway.

I’m about to get stuck into day two of developmental edits on Muffled Drum. Right this minute it seems hugely daunting—a bit like climbing a frozen waterfall or something, but I know I’m just being a Diva. *smites self as no-one else will *

Finally I have—by making sure that Dad always has a bag of bird food in the house (and a post it note saying FEED THE BIRDS) got him to fill the bird table up every day. Hurrah!

Watched Despicable Me – which I really enjoyed although I thought I wasn’t going to. Rather a sweet concept, good characters—and a smaltzy ending that softened even this uber-villainesses’ heart. 

No more news. Oh the glamour of writing and Caring.

Talking of glamour - male/male rhumba on strictly! Yayness!

LOL at the dancing. :D See if that's what Strictly was like all the time I'd watch it. Though there were moments there I thought "ooh, you'll put your back out!"

Artem's real partner Kara is LOT more bendy than James. They have had a couple of m/m moments - last year there was a small section of m/m argentine tango, so hopefully they'll allow same sex partners soon. I live in hope, anyway!

Cool. :D

That rumba clip is fabulous -saw it on the Strictly Take Two today. Did you know that cinnamon is good for helping cholesterol? Add some to your porridge, it's really nice.

Love the dancing.

*smites - just a little bit*

I was irana's smiter of choice because, she said, while it smarted at that moment afterwards she had a nice glow. I so miss her, even her massive overuse of 'softly'.

I miss her too. :(
