Another normal day in the H x 2 Household

This morning, for some reason, I woke up feeling a little grim. Not sure why, maybe because I had done my first gym session in a month the evening before. However, I still managed to lurch to the kitchen, naked, to make HTB and myself coffee and pronutro. I consumed mine in dazed silence as HTB was still unconscious. As I was getting ready for work he managed to surface and eat his breakfast.
I very conscientiously made us each a healthy lunch to take to work, which I promptly forgot and only realized this once I had arrived at work. Oh well – I had been a real greedy gut the day before, so a day of starvation would do me no harm. In spite of feeling grim, or old, not sure which I threw myself into work with my usual gusto. Had a very busy rewarding day, I did managed to get some studying done in between x raying patients – I am writing test on Sunday, and have not done too much learning – too busy meeting the girls for coffees and drinks etc..
After work – I raced off to meet the gals for our usual midweek cocktail hour. I knocked back to cosmopolitans in quick succession then headed off for home.
Once home, I was confronted with HTB ventilating because Dear Kitty had caught a tiny dwarf shrew which he had rescued from a near certain death from her. The poor little thing was unharmed but rigid with fright. There was more hyperventilating as HTB got an sms from the DVD hiring place that the DVD we had rented on Sunday had not been returned. I was tasked with returning the said DVD, which I had very dutifully done and said so. We then ascertained that I had in fact returned the DVD to the wrong DVD people
So firstly, HTB returned the petrified shrew back to a safe place in the garden, dear kitty was locked inside for punishment. Its was actually HTB’s turn to cook supper, but he wasn’t in the mood, and I was feeling mutinous and tipsy, so suggested we go out to eat. But first we did our civic duty and went to vote for our local DA ward councilor. We opted to not vote for the ANC candidate who had just been outed with a criminal record for hijacking that he forgot to mention, as well as having the rather unfortunate name of Innocent.
Voting done – we went to the first DVD place who returned the DVD, which we then took to the correct DVD place and explained the predicament with my best dumb blonde act, which got us out of paying a fine.
Having completed the necessary duties of the evening, we convened at John Dory’s for supper, where I had a glass of wine. Supper done and dusted, we came home. On the way home, I did try convince HTB it would be a good time to take advantage of me but alas, he has sooooo much marking to do.
While HTB was in the shower, I checked my e mails, read 2 mushy messages from 2 friends and sent them a suitable response conducive to my alcohol levels. I have now updated my blog and am in bed with kitty. Just another ordinary Wednesday in our household.
