Friday, April 2
Today's weather has been an odd mixture of overcast cloud and sunshine. People are predicting a warm summer. I hope not, I hate being hot. In preparation though, I bought a pair of orange linen and cotton embroidered wraparound trousers from
O'Neills. They have some very nice clothes for sale right now, as do
Roxy and, surprisingly,
H&M. I'm tempted to buy lots of lovely new clothes, but I barely have room for the ones I already don't wear, I don't need any more. It's consumerism, isn't it? Encouraging us to spend by making us believe we'll be better, more attractive people once we own their product. Remembering this is difficult sometimes though.
For a change, I actually have some plans for the weekend. Ed from Cardiff is coming to stay, and we're going to go to
David's gig tomorrow night. I suggested that we bake a cake for the occasion, so after much debate we settled on baking some blueberry muffins. I don't have a muffin baking tray though and was worried the supermarket won't sell one, so I've decided we'll make an
applesauce spice cake instead, as the supermarket should at least sell cake tins. We've also planned on eating bagels, buying pizza, seeing
Wilbur Wants To Kill Himself and doing plenty of hugging. He's due to arrive in Leeds in approximately two hours and I'm bored waiting for him to turn up. There's things I should be doing, like working on my photography project, or tidying, or doing some washing, or reading, but I'm feeling lazy. I can't even cook something to eat as I expect I'll buy lots of snacky food at the supermarket later and will want to eat that instead. Mmm, Frosties.
