At work today I :

Took a large mouthful of a cup of tea only to realise the milk was several weeks off.
Had to swallow the tea so as not to offend the little old lady.
Was used as a climbing frame by one of the cats from hell
Tripped over one of the aforementioned cats and banged my chin on the sideboard, lost my footing and fell awkwardly on the floor.
Had to hobble home.

I now have; scratches on my thighs where the claws dug in, a bruise forming under my chin and a sprained ankle. It is what is known as a bad day.

So now I am not going into work tomorrow, am painting my toenails for when I go to St Mungos tomorrow and sitting on the couch with a tub of ice cream, flaky chocolates and my book of choice.

I am not getting out of my Falcons strip for anything. This is a Duvet Day.

	Thrusty, obviously. Guess that means you need to go to the store. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	.... Scratches on my thigh??! I don't know how to tell you this Mr Tremlett, but I believe you've been doing it wrong. There's reference books for that sort of thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh I don't know about that. I'm pretty sure my wifey has left scratches on me many a place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Too much information Mr Tremlett. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Now I think you are just being shy. And what's with the Mr. Tremlett bit? That is most definitely my dad. Should I send him your regards? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_penny 2010-04-20 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	Shy or sly? And I'm merely being polite to someone I don't know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perhaps a naughty little mixture of both. Now see that wounds, dearie, wounds. I'm hurt. I might be bleeding. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_penny 2010-04-20 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	Bleeding? I suggest you go to St Mungo's, Mr Tremlett. They deal with that sort of thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-20 11:02 pm UTC (link)
	No, not bleeding. Wounds to my soul. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm beginning to question if you have one, Don... What's with the insinuations? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 04:04 am UTC (link)
	Of course I have one! Now you wound me, Thrusty! You're supposed to be one of my very bestest friends! They're fun? Penny here has such amazing reactions to them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you're a big boy and don't cry, I'll buy you a nice lolly later. ~~Yes, I know, she really does, but~~ It's not very nice to provoke people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 04:39 am UTC (link)
	I don't know. This might be a big enough hurt that requires a popsicle and not a lolly. But she gives as good as she gets! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oneandtwoand 2010-04-21 04:44 am UTC (link)
	I could do that. Both, even. I have a decent sum of money, somehow. You wouldn't enjoy it otherwise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 04:45 am UTC (link)
	You make very tempting offers. Does this mean you are going to be Penny's Sugar Daddy? Obviously! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oneandtwoand 2010-04-21 04:50 am UTC (link)
	~~What is wrong with~~ Yes, Don. Exactly. You are terribly perceptive. You should have to wear a sign that warns people not to respond to your obvious insanity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 04:52 am UTC (link)
	I'm sensing sarcasm. That isn't very nice. Here I just asked a simple question. Sigh. Youth today. But that would take the fun out of everything! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oneandtwoand 2010-04-21 04:54 am UTC (link)
	You have...what, three years on me, if that? Old Man Tremlett, you are so full of wisdom. Although apparently I'm your Sugar Daddy, since it's you who gets the lollies and popsicles and so on. Oh, I don't know. I think it'd be quite fun. Like going to the zoo. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 04:57 am UTC (link)
	Gasp! Don't make me older than I am! Two years, thank you very much. Oh, that's true. Promise not to loan me out too much though, Elizabeth might get suspicious. Wink wink. Got a thing for cages? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oneandtwoand 2010-04-21 05:02 am UTC (link)
	I'll try to keep our arrangement subtle. I hope she doesn't read the journals! Of course. Are you volunteering? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 05:05 am UTC (link)
	Of course she doesn't. She keeps out of my magic things, says they confuse her. I do have to warn you that Wednesday nights are off limits though. That's hump day and darling Elizabeth likes her hump nights. You are turning out to be a kinky bastard, Thrusty. I wonder what other fetishes you have... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oneandtwoand 2010-04-21 05:10 am UTC (link)
	~~Merlin, Don, you think I want to know about your hump day traditi~~ Checking that one off, I guess I'll have to fill my Wednesday nights some other way. Keep on wondering, because that's about the best you can do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 05:14 am UTC (link)
	I'm sure you could get Penny to fill it. Wink wink some more. Oh I'm sure I can do more than wonder. I could always experiment! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oneandtwoand 2010-04-21 05:21 am UTC (link)
	What a novel idea, Don. How nice of you to suggest such a thing. And how do you propose to do that? ~~Why am I goading you on?~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 05:24 am UTC (link)
	Yes, I thought as much. With the way you two are I figured you hadn't realized. Oh you know... Buy some cages, maybe some costumes since you mentioned a zoo and various other odds and ends. I do happen to have a Sugar Daddy who's quite loaded, you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
