For our holidays, we brought our (100% indoor) cat to a friend of ours. This morning, he reported she did not come in last night. He spent the whole night searching for her in the communal (walled) garden before he messaged us.

Just as he returned from the local printing shop with the MISSING posters he'd made, the young lady showed up at the garden door as if she'd been gone for fifteen minutes instead of fifteen hours.

When he called, the sense of relief was insane. We were at that moment doing maximum allowed speed+ from the Polish seaside to Warsaw, with the option of a seat on the next plane home...

Tomorrow my good lady and I are going to London. We shall arrive in the morning, spend the day dilly dallying in our nations' great capital* and then go to the Queen's Theatre in the West End to watch Les Miserables. It is a birthday/anniversary gift to her. Can't wait cos I love the show and it should be a jolly good day anyway.

Tinder, it was made by gods to service my strange new life as a single man.
Take good care to keep relations civil
It's decent in the first of gentlemen

I'm very happy with myself! Over the past 3 months I've gotten my pain pill intake down by a good portion. I'm still hurting at night massively so the Ambien is still a must have or I'd be in bed crying but atleast during the day I'm not near as drowsy.

This is a very significant achievement.

Now get yourself a baked potato and some sour cream as a celebration.

Les Miserables was just stonkingly good. I'm still a little blown away the next morning...

Also in the airport just now my wife just told me "The price of that bottle of Lagavulin is really good you should buy it!"

Been given a temporary promotion (potentially lasting for 18 months) which gives me about an extra 200 quid a month in pay.

Couldn't have come at a better time

My wife does the same at airports. She hates Scotch...but she knows I adore it, and in her awesomeness always points out when it should/needs to be purchased.

Married the best women, we did.
