Feb. 14th, 2011 06:15 pmToday I spent sorting things. Lots of stuff sorted. Stuff concerning teeth, teaching and travel. Only exciting for me. (Unless you're going to Leeds, of course, in which case I can now give you advice on how to avoid me so that you can better enjoy your conference.)
Culcairn was lovely and Donna and Matthew are very patient and good and generous friends. Mostly, I'm not a talker, but when I talk, I don't stop - which means that a lot of people think I'm a talker *all* the time, which amuses me. I didn't stop yesterday. I suspect I've been missing social life. Once a fortnight is possibly insufficient.
They gave me a day with themselves and lunch with the Lilleys (Chris wasn't there, though, so my coffee joke didn't get any due appreciation*).
I came home re-invigorated. I don't know how friends give more spoons to not-well people, but they do.
*I always give Chris coffee he can't drink. It totally annoys him, so I intend to keep on doing it at unpredictable intervals for as long as I can. Normally, it's coffee with odd flavours (he uses violent language when presented with vanilla-flavoured coffee), but this time it was perfectly good blended coffee with no strange additions...in a 4 cup pod. The pod is designed for US machines... It works for some Australian machines, but I am pretty sure that he doesn't have one of them.
