Rainy. Was it St. Swithin's Day recently and nobody told me? (Actually, yes it was, and it rained. I just checked my blog.)

I went to bed last night around 12:30am. That is not a typo. Very early for me. I slept well, but still woke up with a headache. Ack. I've noticed that if I take medicine it works for a short time, but the pain comes back.

In the morning I did a lot of lazing around the apartment. Lazing and sweating. Bleck. Finally I roused myself, thought about going out, but then it started to rain again. Sigh.

In the afternoon I watched some TV and also did some housework (gasp!). I vacuumed and cut up our lovely milk cartons to take in for recycling.

Hubby came home a bit late and we hemmed and hawed about where to have dinner. I had originally planned to go out and get some food and then cook that for dinner, but the weather combined with my headache made that a non-starter. Finally we decided to go to Fireball. We've been there a couple of times. It's a little pasta restaurant fairly close by, they aren't fancy inside, but the food is good. Well, it was good tonight too. I had chicken and eggplant spaghetti in a tomato cream sauce. Oh, so good. F had some kind of pasta with pork and eggplant. I think he had more of an olive oil based sauce. We got the set so we each had soup, salad, dessert and drink bar too. The food was great and we had a nice time together.

After dinner we bought a few groceries for tomorrow night. The plan at the moment is for me to cook chicken drumsticks in the afternoon and then we'll have them cold at night, with salad and cold broccoli. Hopefully it'll work out.

At home, hub watched something on TV, but at 11 we started watching Desperate Housewives. It was sooo good tonight. It was the end of season 4 so they tied up a few loose ends, but also started a big change in the show. F was terribly surprised at the end. I already knew, because I'd seen part of season 5 last year in Canada.

And that was my day. F is off in bed, and I'll likely go soon. It is raining really hard now. I tried opening the windows a few minutes ago, but it was like listening to a tap running, so I closed them again. Sigh. I hope the weather improves tomorrow.

Got to go! Night night.
