I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine

Blah. I forgot to come yesterday.  Well actually that's a lie, I remembered - but my fingers just didn't want to do anything on this here paper.

So anyway, yeah. On Saturday we went on a little jaunt to a place called Fewston Reservoir.  It was a beautiful day and despite having only had a few hours sleep due to Poppycake jumping on my head/pillow/feet and M snoring his face off we had a really lovely walk.

I was quite alarmed by the amount of flies that were buzzing around though.  Anyone that knows me will know that I have a very strong aversion to flying things. 

In fact, I know Juli will recall the time when we walked out into our work car park to go home and she had to swipe lots of flying ants off my car before I'd get in it.  Yeah, flies DO NOT rock.  They seemed to be following us too.  But let me not dwell, everything else was hot.      

A few pictures from the event:-

Oh, boutiful views darwin.

Lots of pretty little flowers everywhere.

Was it you? Did you leave this bag of poo at this beautiful location? You should be ashamed.

On Sunday we chilled out in the morning, ate cereal leisurely (well me quick because I don't like soggy cereal) and then we went to Red Brick Mill for a meander. We went up to the nice cafe bit and had a coffee and cupcake, before surfing the floors for some nice nic-nacs. 

We noticed that our favourite bit of the shop - the lovely Japanese bit with traditional furniture/dolls/momiji stuff was closing down, noes! M told me that he wanted to buy me a new mug for work and had settled on a momiji one, luckily they had some there. He bought me two in the end, and a luscious teapot, so cute. I think you'll agree, I was a little spoilt.

Today I started my new job in the hospital and it was really good. I was nervous to start with and things are always really weird on the first day. You get so much information to digest and are introduced to too many names and faces. I will learn them all, in time.

The hospital is such an awesome place to work though. I love walking through the corridors. One minute you're next to the chapel, then the morgue, then you hear a baby crying. The full circle of life all around you. And it's so great for people watching, which I love.

I have more to talk about but it's a separate subject, so see you up there folks.
