Boiler deliberately came back on and waited until I was rinsing conditioner out and then went stone cold again.  Soldiered on :(


Swahili: Mimi ni baridi na mvua
Translation: I am cold and wet
Temperamental boiler is on strike again.  Not happy, I was half way through a shower when it set up on the picket line.


Swahili: Kasirani
Translation: Annoyed
This is just getting silly.  I was up until half four again last night - I have become a proper night owl.  I thought visiting my parents over Christmas would fix my sleeping pattern but obviously it hasn't worked.  In fact, it's made it worse as I'm going to bed an average of an hour and half later...

The reason I was up so late is that I decided to do some casual scribbling before I went to sleep.  This turned into an all out sonnet and five hours later I was still banging my head against a wall  The first two stanzas came easily, the third stanza took hours but I got there eventually.  The couplet at the end is still evading me.

This morning I got treated to yet another breakfast in bed :)  Only J does bacon the way I like it - no one else has ever managed.  On a good day he makes a truly awesome cup of tea as well.

Had to pick thorns out of Taz's shoulders and head last night; I don't know where he got them from but my roses had better still be intact!  He doesn't even notice, he'd have all sorts of problems if I wasn't in the habit of checking him when he comes in.  We're currently enjoying the Lion King soundtrack - it's one of his favourites.


Swahili: Simba, Mfalme
Translation: Lion, King

I can do better than that.


Swahili: Kahawa na maziwa na sukari mbili tafadali
Translation: Coffee with milk and two sugars please
Do love that photo :)  It was a misfire but a good one!

Looking forward to getting into Firefly.  I hope it's all it's cracked up to be.  If I understand it right and NF is some kind of space pirate then it must be fabulous.

Awesome lesson today, really pleased.  Very much looking forward to getting into the groundwork course...  Working mainly on giant killer techniques.  Ju Jitsu is so the love of my life

Today, aside from the class, I cooked a curry and practiced in my heels.  Hoping leg presses will pay off soon and will turn into leggy stunner...   Unlikely.  Coming to the end of my Dowe Egberts - may cry about it.

*Looks at photo again* Ahh, choppy layers.  I get it now!


Swahili: Kahawa
Translation: Coffee

Kanibasami


Far too much fun to be had...
Surely all Instructors warm up their voices with the Rocky Horror soundtrack??
