Rehab.

Sometimes Lady Luck looks at you and doesn't knee you in the groin or spit in your eye... no no, some times she looks at you, blows you a freakin' huge kiss, licks her lips and mouthes... 'call me'

Well I got the call on Friday actually, from my boss, asking if I'd care to take Monday off? Um... what sort of question is that anyway? "Do you want to extend your vacation by a day, miss work on Monday and actually have a chance to recover from the previous 10 days of drinks, men, drinks, men and drinks and men?" Um HELL YES I'll take Monday off! Thank you very much indeed!

So, yes Maria, HA!, me no workie today. :-)

Didier had the day off as well (his was previously scheduled...) It was the PERFECT day to not go to work... torrential rain and GORGEOUS thunder... we stayed in bed til 11:30am !

It was the last day for the Toulousians, so once the rain stopped and it seemed that it might not rain again they made the most of it and went to the Botanical Gardens. So while they were admiring Mother Nature's work, me and the Man stayed in. And we decided a day of Rehab was in order. We did no laundry, no dishes, no housecleaning... We plunked our asses on the couch and watched first "Failure to Launch" ...What can I say, I'm a romantic comedy whore... and if you add in Mr MM (Matthew McConaughey) then I am sooooo all over it. And I have to say it was a cute movie...

After our dose of MM we decided to deep into our couch potatoness and watched the last 5 episodes of 'the 4400' from Season 2 . I know I've said how much we like this show, but day-yam I'm so into this show. We have Season 3 on loan now as well and I'm chomping at the bit to start watching them, but that won't be possible for the next week at least as we still have house guests... Philippe de Rennes and Benito de Barcelona (gets in on Tuesday night) so I'll just have to make due with these 5 episodes for now... Season 3... you'll soon me ours!

Not a drop of alcohol passed our lips today; plenty of water, but no alcohol... heh! gotta give the liver a day off once in a while... It was either that or get a transplant... and well Human Livers are expensive... the choice was clear.

For now, it's back to the working man's world... *sigh*
