Clouds drifting by

AJ99 left this comment on day 2 of my Person of Interest advent calendar on AO3.

"You can’t antagonize a violent crime lord [Elias], he’ll complain" this really is how they live.

I had to laugh because it's so true!

Daisy came in and was 'wooing' at me (making a noise like Woo, woo") which she usually does when she's got something for me. To my relief, there was no sign of a bird, so I figured she wanted some attention and gave her a stroke.

It wasn't until the next morning I saw the brown leaf she'd dropped by the armchair. She'd been standing in the way, so I didn't notice it the night before. It's rather large and is all dried out and crinkled up, like the last leaves of autumn. She must have found it in a corner of the garden.

I was playing with it on my desk last night and was getting Daisy to hunt it. When the carers came in, Daisy saw me get them to put the leaf safely in a shallow basket by my mouse. I'm hoping she'll decide these presents are far better than silly old birds.

No, I know it's not that likely, but still.

22. Do you have a living will or other documentation of an end-of-life care plan?

No. I should organise one.

I'm wearing a brand new top today. It's a Joe Browns wrap top that I got on sale. It's long enough to be worn alone and I'm so pleased with it!

See under the cut for a pic.

In other news, I finally have an appointment with my opticians. I was due to have one 5 months ago.

LOL!

Cake. I like most kinds of cake.

Now I want cake.

Water with juice? 1,000ml, plus a can of coke, and a coffee.

Wow, I don't drink enough.

16. When you were graduating from school, what did you think your life would look like at your age now? Does it match?


I didn't think about my future at all.

13. What's the notification tone on your phone for calls? Texts?

Uh, um, standard ones that came with the phone. I really don't know. If my phone goes off, I look around wondering what the noise is.
