Gifts and Sneezes

Friday 17th December 2010

Today's photo is naughty because it was officially taken last night BUT in my defence, I have been (a) super busy today and (b) sick so it counts. Especially as it sums up what I did with my housemates today - open presents!

I opened a couple from one housemate before lectures this morning - and got a slanket (blanket with sleeves) and a toy cat that moves and meows (well, squeaks). I got him a mug that says "I Facebooked your Mum".

I wasn't feeling hungover from last night, but my nose began to run something awful and it all started to go downhill from there. I made it through my first lectures which were part of my job, then had lunch with a friend before heading up to my campus to begin another four-hour Core Computing lecture. By this point I was feeling really rough and it turned out that the *lecture* wasn’t going to be taught at all and was just for us to work on our projects. I hadn’t brought any of my data with me and after two hours I gave in and begged to be allowed to go as there was no point me being there.

I dragged myself home and found my other housemate waiting. Opened more presents – a bottle of TruBlood (not real blood!), a……, and finally the biggest box of all which contained a teeny tiny framed picture of the two boys. Oh dear! I got him a blow up sheep. Because he’s Welsh and I’ve been threatening to get him one for years!

At that point I then snuggled up on the sofa and some friends came over so we could watch tv and chill out. Once they had gone I went straight to bed. Ugh, illness sucks!
