Honky Tonk Woman

A happy post! The sun is shining! I’m at work…BUT, it is Friday, and then it’s Bank Holiday weekend! And even though the odds are against it, what with me being in London, the weather forecast is good for the whole weekend. It’s all good.

The real reason I am so thrilled though, is that I discovered this morning (after I had managed to claw my way out of the duvet – a daily battle of epic proportions due to the fact that my bed is only at its most supreme level of comfort from 6.30am onwards), that both my housemates will be away…ALL weekend. I can barely express the joy I felt on gleaning this information. When I casually asked one of them this morning about their plans, it was all I could do to keep the feverish sense of excitement out of my voice. I managed a neutral-sounding ‘Have a lovely time, then. What time exactly will you be leaving?’

Oh, just imagine. The bliss of having the place all to myself for three days and nights. I won’t have to listen to anyone extolling the virtues of the Weight Watchers’ points system EVERY time I go to the kitchen (for the last time, bread is not evil, stop the madness); nor will I have to listen to the other one pontificating on her most favourite and sacred of subjects, her almighty self.

I know exactly how I’ll be taking advantage of this short burst of freedom. There’ll be a little Rolling Stones, a lot of wandering around naked, prossibly a little naked dancing. Don’t worry – I have net curtains.
