A mid-week day off work spent in wonderful company… watching movies snuggled up under the duvet while the rain poured down outside, learning to play Uno (and winning! :o) ), love and laughter, sex and silliness, thinking and talking and understanding and being understood.

The nine fingertips that currently don’t have nasty staple-inflicted wounds. You forget to appreciate properly-functioning fingers until one gets damaged.

The prospect of a fun-filled weekend ahead – office-sponsored drinks tomorrow evening, a comedy show on Saturday and meeting up with a good friend on Sunday.

A few realisations I’ve had in the last few days – I’ve come a long way with one particular issue, I’m not doing as badly as I thought with another, and a third which after one tantalising glimpse is now lurking obstinately in my subconscious, but I know it’s there and will reveal itself in its own good time.
