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.

	Ohh, yeah, that show...I forget what it was called. You know, you're lucky I don't remember much about that, because I would be sorely tempted to bombard you with quotes. Big guy, he was, right? 3.) WHAT. 4.) Knocking band mates out and sealing them up in walls. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I haven't the faintest what you are talking about. 3.) YOU READ IT! 4.) That doesn't seem like much of a kink, but I guess it could be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You do. 3.) That's not what I meant and you know it! 4.) If it'll shut you up, we'll say it is. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nope, so don't! 3.) Do I? Because that is what is sounded like to me... 4.) It'll probably make me add another number onto my list. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You brought up the "bloke who wears too many necklaces". 3.) I'm insulted that you seem to have forgotten that you're the Troubled Young Bloke. You're the only one for me, Don! 4.) Well then go ahead. Although you're getting lazy, with all of these "???"s. Expecting me to do all the work? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I plead the fifth. 3.) Aww... Now my heart is all aflutter! 4.) Well I can't say I know you all that well in the bedroom department to know what you like. 5.) Pain because obviously you're a masochist. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pain was #2. LAZY. Daddy is not happy, Don. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	True! But I just remembered the correct word for it. So I guess we can change number 5 to dominatrix, huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-21 06:28 am UTC (link)
	Ha. Well let's see if I can't dig up the name for a man who does that... Dominator or master. Take your pick. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~Well, technically, I'm the master of my dog...and don't you dare make #6 beastiality or I really will~~ I'll let you do the honors. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_penny 2010-04-21 06:18 pm UTC (link)
	Please don't. Really, please. And the masculine form of dominatrix would be dominus/dominator - lit. Master which is where we get the term 'domestic' and 'domicilliary' - domus meaning house/household/abode. I'm going to go back to ignoring you and Mr Tremlett now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I really, really don't like you calling me Mr. Tremlett. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_penny 2010-04-24 05:02 pm UTC (link)
	Its a sign of respect! Would you prefer I called you something else? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-24 05:11 pm UTC (link)
	No, I'm pretty sure that you call me that to make me pout. My name is Don. Should be easy to remember. It's just three letters long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_penny 2010-04-24 05:27 pm UTC (link)
	You've caught me. You do pout rather impressively. Hello Don. My name's Penelope. But you can call me Miss Clearwater (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-24 05:30 pm UTC (link)
	I am so not calling you that. How about Mrs. Thrusty instead? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_penny 2010-04-24 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	Unacceptable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-24 05:34 pm UTC (link)
	No? But it's such a nice name. And it has such a lovely ring to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The more you keep talking, the less inclined I am to keep dating Osino. ~~Not that I'd actually break up with him~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rhythmicfingers 2010-04-24 05:39 pm UTC (link)
	I don't think so. I don't think you are the type to break-up with someone just because of something a friend of theirs is saying. And if you are, well... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

No. You're perfectly right.

[ Don ]

I wouldn't break up with him because of his friends - as much as it pains me to admit it, you're actually rather charmingly funny. And my friends have their own foibles.

But Orsino is simply lovely - he's sweet, charming, intelligent, adorable, a gentleman and I like spending time with him. I'm aware of how lucky I am to be dating him. Every day.
