Despite the possibility that the universe is messing with us all, this week has been quite good when I haven’t been falling asleep at my desk! Here’s some of the things that made it great!
* Eating better – fresh salad vegetables, couscous and grilled chicken or soup for lunches, with baked potatoes, fish pie and home-made low fat curries for dinners, this week I’ve been trying to cut down on my red meat consumption and eat more fruit and vegetables. Delicious, and I feel really good about eating it!
* My Mslexia diary – Although a simple spiral-bound plastic-covered book instead of the thing of joy that is the Moleskine, if you’re an aspiring writer in the UK I urge you to think about purchasing one of these. There’s loads of room for your own notes, inspiring quotations from published authors and the closing dates for lots of prestigious writing competitions. It’s a great tool, and will be accompanying me everywhere from now on!
* Re-watching great TV – Series one of Spooks (I’m just a tiny little bit obsessed), old episodes of House and all of Dead Like Me before we can get hold of the new movie, some series’ are just as great the second time!
* This cat:
* Hot chocolate made with full-fat milk and real chocolate – I know it’s bad for me, but it’s so damn good!
* Geeks – my other half has built us a media centre and it’s awesome! I’m not sure what to make of Windows 7 yet (we’re testing it on the media centre) but once we buy a blu-ray drive it’s going to be brilliant, and I can finally have my DVD player back.
* Twitter – I’m so ridiculously addicted now, I sit at work and read peoples’ tweets as they arrive, it keeps me going when I’m bored, even if I’m not posting any of my own!
Share the love! What’s brightened up your week?

A friend showed me that Ninja Kitty thing last week and I laughed so hard that I almost cried. Brilliant!
Awesome list! I’ve been re-watching a lot of my old favourite shows on DVD lately as well – ahhhhh, nostalgia! And if you’re eating as well as you have been, I wouldn’t worry at all about having proper hot chocolate!
Yum! Your week in food sounds delicious. That ninja cat video freaks me out, I get really nervous as he/she gets closer to the camera, ha ha! Like the feeling when you know someone is creeping up on you…
Have you checked out the other Ninja Kitty video? I’ll have to find a link for it– it’s hysterical as well!
Healthy eating is so wonderful– I’m itching to get more veggies in my diet!
Oh man. That cat video totally made my day more bearable! It seriously made me laugh out loud!
*mental note* drink more hot chocolate!!!
and i too LOVE twitter!! so much fun, and so very addictive <3
@ Ashe, Ooh no, I haven’t seen the other one, I’ll have a search for it!
Thank God it’s Friday here… it’s been a HOT week, couple of days hitting the 40C (100F+) and raging bushfires in Sydney…
Oh yes. That kind of hot chocolate is so worth it.
yay to you on the cutting out on the red meat thing…woo hoo!
