Success!

Dear Reader,

Today was a fun and successful day. I actually managed to do some cleaning - mainly dusting, and I can tell you that gets into your nose. Our surfaces are pretty messy usually, but we - I had my lovely friend D. help me [she's crazy enough to actually like cleaning] - did a pretty good job. The house hasn't looked this tidy in ages, though I don't actually want to touch my family's stuff, because I'm sure they'll yell at me if I misplace anything. Saturday I will have to vacuum and mob the floors, clean the bathrooms, and that'll pretty much do it. I hope my mum will be pleased :)

Other than that my day involved a lot of playing the Sims. D. and I are crazy enough to sit side by side and play the same - although she has a better version - game. It's actually quite addicting and not very useful at all. That's the thing about games. They're so easy to kill time with, even if you don't intend to. There's something about games that can draw you in, no matter how stupid they are, and we have definitely fallen victim to that same inexplicable thing.

We also tried a new recipe, which I must say is definitely worth repeating. We had potatoes and carrots in the oven, with some olive oil and oregano, and porkchops with thyme, spring onion and red wine :) After that we finished a whole tub of Ben & Jerrys; it's ice cream too good to put away.

Signing off,
Satisfied
