New year, new... year

[juliet]

Good things about this NYE: two rather good parties (many thanks to both lots of hosts); lots of lovely people; kisses from some of the aforementioned lovely people; roast potatoes!; tasty beer; 2005 finally being over; several people complimenting me on my skirt (which I finished knitting that afternoon; and some of the complimenting people didn't even know that I'd made it!); watching the fireworks at Westminster from the roof of Lockwood Square.

Bad things about this NYE: random attack of depressive weepiness around 0030; subsequent extensive feeling sick[0] leading to 3 hrs drinking nothing stronger than water (by the pint) as everyone around me got progressively more trollied... Still, people were lovely & cheered me up (you're all great, you are. Hurrah for great people), and I did enjoy myself anyway.

Since then I have: eaten lovely fry-up (yesterday lunchtime) & lovely pasta (this evening) courtesy of marnameow; done post-party washing-up; continued to feel mentally/physically dodgy & self-medicated with Lush bath products; watched assorted DVDs; helped finish the party beer; seen more lovely people (well, the above-mentioned lovely people) in various states of death-in-a-bin ruin; finished making a skirt I've been halfway through sewing for about 3 yrs (hurrah); started some more knitting; & cleaned the rats out.

Now, it is bedtime, as sadly (unlike sbp, lucky sod) I have WERK tomorrow. This may lead to less time spent on the sofa knitting & listening to the radio than has featured in the last week. I Disapprove of this change of affairs.

[0] Current best theory is that both weepiness & unwellness were hormone related - reaction to removal of implant. I am underimpressed, & hope & trust that this is a temporary blip while things settle down, & not about to become a monthly feature.

My cousin Aimmee had her implants removed too. One of them calcified and went weird so her mum (my aunty Denise) took her to the hospital on the 23rd December. She's been pretty hormonal too, and annoyed cos she won't be able to fit into the fitted basque with whalebone that her boyfriend Dan gave her for xmas.

But glad your xmas was cheery and jolly.

All the best for 2006 hun.
