puddingcatToday was the first day in 10 days that I've got up before 9am. The first day in a week I've got up before 10.30am, in fact.
It's the first day I've worn contact lenses in that time; the first day I've worn makeup, the first day I've worn a skirt, and the first day I've worn heels. Last night was the first time I shaved my legs in a fortnight.
It's also the first time I've had a Starbucks in a week, but that doesn't make up for being back at work and not in bed with one cat curled round my head and the other on my tummy.
I want to be back at home, writing crap for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
wk_100 and thinking I really *must* get something done before my break's over.

princesspy is a Bad Influence. After the picture she posted of her sparkly black ballet slippers, I Went Shopping.
Unfortunately, Accessorise had sold out of size 5s. More unfortunately, I found the Monsoon sale rails. For £73 I got a skirt, a pair of linen trousers, a long-sleeved t-shirt and a victoriana blouse. All in black, and all either 50% or 70% off :)
Then, of course, I had to check Barratts for the blue furry leopard print shoes thatpink_weasel had mentioned. They were nowhere to be seen, but a lovely pair of red satin ballet pumps were - for £5. Ooops.
To top it all, my "ok, let's go to Tesco's to stock up on cheap beans & baked potatoes, cos that's all I can afford now" trip revealed some lovely sparkly black ballet slippers.
Arse.
