Role reversals and sandwiches

I've got so much work to do today, irgh... but my heads gone numb so I'm taking a quick five minute blog break (which I think is far healthier than nipping outside for a fag - that's brit lingo for cigarette, just to avoid any confusion)... Anyway, it's rainy and miserable outside, making staying in to blog all the more appealing.

I quite like rainy and miserable though - it makes me more content to be indoors, which is particularly helpful when I have so much work to do (it's easier to concentrate if your'e not wishing that you were outside enjoying the sun) and besides, there's something quite romantic about a grey sky, wet streets and a chill breeze... or maybe that's just me.

Actually, I might have lunch...

I'll just have a wee peek and see what bf packed for me... yes, we've had our problems with him drinking, and more recent problems with the 'where's the thrill gone' - but it's great to have someone who makes your pack lunches! Not to mention all the other stuff that he does. I'm of a generation where the 'new man' as I think they call it, is pretty much par for the course (actually, that might be a sweeping generalisation, but lets just roll with it), but I'm not niave enough to think that all men my age do as much housework and homemaking as their female counterparts. I'm glad the guy that I'm with has no issue with these daft gender stereotypes, cause I'm a bit of an absent minded prof. when it comes to domestic stuff - let's here it for role reversals of the 21st century - yay! I couldn't help but laugh the other day when he was nagging me to fold the laundry that he'd just washed, cause I had a drill in one hand and gloss paint all over my jeans at the time. Snapshot.

Hmmm, now, back to that sandwich...

Yeah, i definitely have to agree, i especially like it when its at night, when the streets are wet with newly fallen rain. There are times when the city lights are reflected by the street giving life to what would usually be a mundane night. Whenever i go out to the cafe just outside my building i like watching people chat on a table that is under a big umbrella, chatting about anything that comes to their mind... anyway have you ever watched Dakar?
