Yesterday, as I was sitting in my comfy chair while working away at my Sunday Times crossword puzzle, I listened to a news report on the Royal Wedding. It seems collectibles are being sold at such a quick pace it is impossible to keep up with the demand.
"Who buys that stuff?" I pondered aloud.
"People who don't leave their houses," Tim replied.
"Oh, you mean people like me?"
I looked down and realized I was wearing the same outfit from the day before...oversized sweater and stretched out sweat pants. Very attractive.
I hadn't stepped foot outside for two whole days. I hadn't done that since I ditched school and was afraid to go out in case someone saw me. Luckily I was the teacher so I didn't have to forge a note. I don't think I even opened the front door yesterday. I looked out the window quite a bit and even snapped an "arty" shot with my Blackberry from the vantage of my comfy chair.
Got a call during the day from a woman who was coming by to dig up some of our unwanted ferns, etc.
"It's cold and wet out there. Are you sure you want to come today?'
"That's why I'm wearing rain gear,"she replied.
Oh yeah, that's what's hanging in my hall closet. Along with the Uggs and Boggs and other assorted footwear. I guess I should be brave and venture outdoors today.
But first I need to find one of those British Waging sites. I think I need to place a bet or two. What are the odds of rain for the April nuptials in London?
