good things
- had an extremely lazy day today, it was Adam's last holiday day so we just.. did nothing.
- I didn't even cook dinner, we ordered pizza, which I had been craving for ages, *and* I didn't have any soft drink, heck yeah. My pizza was pretty good, it had mainly prawns, creme fraiche and spinach on it.
- I read *two* old 70s Mills and Boon novels today. I really like the older ones because they really play up the romance of the man being tall, dark, manly and rich. (he's always wealthy, it's hilarious). The two I read today really really toed my dubcon line though - I mean, they're always a bit dubconny - women aren't actually supposed to *want* it, or at least not show it, and I'm okay with that in these books (okay it's kinda why I read them), but the men in the two I read today were on the violent side, both women even got throttled a bit :( Like, I hadn't read any before where the woman couldn't move from being pressed against his granite muscular frame for fear of HURTING HERSELF.
- Toby is becoming a person. He's doing a really awesome sidekick these days, complete with giant HAAAAY-YAH! sound, and it's hilarious.
- The boys were playing the garage by themselves today because there's not much in there that they can get in trouble with, but I went out to check on them and found them *both* up the fort, and it's obvious that Toby went up there himself first. He can't even walk, what the hell is this?
- I reread Lord Knows It Would Be The First Time by Uraneia for the fourth time last night. (Stiles/Derek, Explicit, 12k, post breakup kid fic). Every single line in that fic is a punch to the gut for me. I love it so so very much.
- I also enjoyed You Have to Go To Them Sometimes by Kellifer_fic (Teen Wolf, Gen, 4k) it's competent Team Human at college from an outsider POV and I loved it so very much. I might not have clicked on it from the summary, but I'm subscribed to the author.
- I managed to change our house and contents insurance to a cheaper provider, which I had been meaning to do for ages!
eta: oh, Australia won the test cricket against England 5-0 and I can't explain what a big deal that is except that it is one.
