Laura and the dull day

'Are you going to write a new blog today?' asked Alan as he left for work this morning.'I don't know', I replied grumpily through my sore throat.'Nothing's happened''Well that doesn't usually stop you!' retorted Alan.He is right. It doesn't usually stop me. But I must admit this is a challenge for any daily blogger, when all one has done is inspect one's infected throat and wonder what all that yellow stuff is on the back of it.I can tell you that an exciting early birthday gift arrived in the post from my maternal parent. Kerry Katona's autobiography no less, which was a welcome thrill in this very dull day. Although I do regard Kezza to be a wretched creature, I am entertained beyond belief by her antics and unfeasibly over dramatic life.I can also tell you that my posterior region is balanced precariously on the horns of a dilemma, as 'Katie and Peter' is not on for the next 3 weeks. I have been pondering what on earth Alan and I will do between the hour of 9pm and 10pm this evening because we watch it every week. I have come up with a series of suggested outcomes and I will let you know tomorrow which one Alan plumped for. During the void I will offer the following options:

Watch something else, either on mainstream or 'catch up' telly
Watch an episode of The OC, from a box set lent to me by one of the students at work
Talk
Do chores ie dishes
Discuss whether we should apply to NASA as the space program is looking for new astronauts

In my considered opinion, I do believe Alan will opt for one of the first 2 options, telly being very close to his heart and space travel being very far away from his heart.

Another fabulous post! I think reading about your putrid throat was the icing on the cake of my douche of a day. Thank you for being there, Laura! Can't wait to find out whether Alan opted for watching something else on tv or applying to NASA to be an astronaut...although I do wonder why making elbow farts and excavating each other's belly lint were not choices on the list...hmmm, makes one wonder...
