The 5th of October.  Today has been such fun. I got up this morning and watched Sunday Brunch, and Becky and James came over because they were locked out, so we had some bridesmaid dress chat, which James was just enthralled by.

Mommy took me to Brindleyplace for Fiona's hen meal at The Slug and Lettuce. When I got there, I couldn't see anyone I recognised, but eventually I found Corinne, her mum, at the table in the corner covered in balloons. Plus Nick's mum and two of Fiona's relatives. Fiona and the rest of the party arrived after some time, and we all ordered. I had the Philly steak sandwich with sweet potato fries, although I had to dismantle if heat it. Then we played a "How well do you know Fiona game" which I did not score highly on as I have pretty much missed the past few years. I had the cookie cup explosion for pudding, then I had to go so I left enough money and Daddy collected me in the chair.

When we got home, I was craving vegetables, so I had some extra ones that Mommy had made for her and Daddy's dinner. This evening, Mommy and I went to the mac to see Susan Calman and she was excellent. At one point in the show, as she talked about a trip to the sewers of Paris, I had mild hysterics. The show was about loving yourself, and being Swan A in Swan Lake. Susan, you are a swan, and so am I.

The 6th of October. 

I woke up at 7:40 today! This is most excellent. Hopefully this pattern will continue, but I won't hold my breath. Not that I could right now, anyway. I am not optimistic about my lung function tests on Thursday.

Spent the day inside because the weather has been hideous and there has been no reason to go out and inflict it upon ourselves. I wrote some stuff for Julie for the Grazia piece because she was going to work on it today, so I'll probably get a draft of it soon.

We cleaned out Hamilton's cage after he finished shovelling bedding into his face and I got some rather amusing photos of him. He's a funny hamster.

We watched an episode of Criminal Minds in which a child died from leukaemia and I looked over and Mommy was crying. I feel so helpless.
