After the last couple of weeks of gloom and doom, I woke up yesterday to the shiny goodness of a perfect summer morning. Hurrah! I mooched out to a sunny spot in the backyard, and enjoyed the lovely breakfast made by Claire and Kate (my new housemates). I spent the next couple of hours baking in the sun. The only problem being that I now have circles around my eyes where my sunglasses blocked the sun from my face! Doh! But the rest of me is a few shades darker than what I was on friday. I'm getting ready for the inevitable summer tan off competition between me and Alessia.
My friend Darren was performing in a production of the Mikado, so a few of us went out to check it out last night. The quality of it all was quite amazing for an amateur production. Darren and his comedy expressions were brilliant. He really is a great performer and operetta is a great forum for him to display his talents.
Today the sun shone down again, and I slooped out to east london to check out some graphic design degree shows. It was baking hot in the exhibition space, and I soldiered on until dehydration drove me to seek water. I had a quick look around the markets, but the need for an afternoon nap in the sun beckoned and I left without a single purchase.
Now sitting in bed exercised, fed and showered, I'm ready for the week ahead. Hopefully there will be more sun in store and more afternoon naps!
