Ug

Am in a ug kind of mood, and am tempted to go into the garden and lie face down in the grass, but it's not that much cooler outside. Still, it's been a very productive day; my fic is just about finished now apart from one last read through for silly mistakes. I should get M to do it really, cos he won't get distracted by enjoying the story. I've beta'd a story today, and have started on another, and it's all good stuff.

The Sue Ryder sale this morning was like entering hell on whichever level deals with jumble sale stallholders. It was heaving, the portakabins were like ovens, and tempers flared in the kitchen section over the box of rotary whisks. I tried to buy a chip basket for my pan, and the hellfiend behind the counter got them down one at a time from a pile of at least twenty, and looked as though she wanted to brain me with them rather than sell me one. But we had fun anyway; there's nothing like buying junk to cheer me up, even if it is served with a scowl.

I also dragged myself round Sainsbury's and to Vision Express, and encountered more grumpiness. Hmm. I suppose I might've been a tad irritable today too.

I couldn't bear leaving the house again after that, so cried off my friends and stayed at home instead, mostly so I could just remain in my underwear and lurk in the cool basement room and not be bad tempered with anyone else.

Oh, and happy birthday, alsoa! Hope you had a fab day.
