These past few days have been rather rough. I'm struggling to get enough sleep and my body feels as though I have been running several marathons. I haven't even touched knitting once, that is how exhausted I have been.

So blogging feels like an afterthought.

But I'm learning new exotic phrases from my blog spam (they do what to zebras?!), I am a merciless conqueror in Civilization Revolution, and I have a new mobile phone with built-in pedometer so I can feel extra guilty about how little exercise my body allows me these days. And I have learned the hard way that Tesco's Budget Long-Lasting Unsweetened Soy Alternative To Milk tastes really, really foul.
