Flutterby

Hey peeps

Thanks for the well wishing yesterday- (possible TMI…) the immodium kicked in quickly anyway, and I basically spent yesterday sleeping in front of the TV, occasionally checking on blogs and hotmail, and eating toast. Oh, and watching Tangled which I thought was fab. So not all bad.

Anyway although I felt better, I felt today like I had been punched in the stomach- sore in a weird way. I did not fancy eating much, and so decided to skip my run in exchange for leaving work as soon as possible, and relaxing at home. I did have a walk (in the wind!) after dinner, and am nearly back to normal I think.

While reading blogs this evening I saw that Sarah had tagged me in a blogger survey thing. I love reading these as I like random facts, and so you get to see my answers now, you lucky lot. Be warned I am veryย indecisive!

Favourite colour;

At the moment, green. I think green suits me, so I think I gravitate towards it. Plus lots of natural things are green.

Favourite song;

Gosh, I have so many songs I love, this would change all the time. I might go for Build me up Buttercup, as I just love it. But I love loads!

Favourite dessert;

I should say cupcakes, but that is not my answer! I think today my choice would be a squidgy chocolate brownie with a little blob of vanilla ice cream on top. Yes, that is what I choose today.

What really annoys you;

I get annoyed by people who do not pull their weight. But mostly idiot drivers! The ones that go in the left lane when they need to take the third exit (I got cut up by a van doing this today- what an idiot), or motorcyclists who squeeze between cars and lorries on busy roads, or people who do not indicate at roundabouts. Yeah, idiot drivers because it is annoying but also dangerous.

When you are upset you:

I try to hold in my tears! I hate people seeing my cry. If I was at home I would have a cuddle with Andy and he would cheer me up.

Your favourite pet;

I have not had many pets, and I am not really a pet person. Although I have always wanted a rabbit, but was never allowed(and now I think of the practical things- who would look after the rabbits when I am on holiday, what about the winter when it is cold outside and I have to clean it etc). I did have a dog (well it was my Mum’s from before I was born) and he was the most gentle little dog ever. We had a cat which was never interested in playing and ran away to some neighbours who put out cat food in their garden. Oh, and we had a stick insect once. Actually, my best pet was a school pet- a squirrel! Our teacher used to rescue animals and we had a baby squirrel in our classroom (it fell out the nest when it was a baby)- we called him Nutty, and drew pictures of him and things. So yeah, I will have the squirrel.

Black or White;

I choose white. I love white cardi’s and tops. They go with green you see. And I hardly ever wear black trousers.

Biggest fear:

Spiders, for sure. I am terrified of them. It is one reason that puts me off Australia.

Best Feature;

I think I am a very cheerful person. I try to greet everyone with a cheery smile and greeting, and I am mainly optimistic I think.

What is perfection?

Can I say gum? Just because I was watching Friends the other day ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hmm, really, I am not sure if anything is perfection unless you are happy with yourself, because then whatever you are is perfect to yourself. Does that make sense? And if it doesn’t, then I choose gum again. (But I don’t even chew gum).

Guilty pleasure:

Easy! Reality TV! Top Chef, The Amazing Race, The Biggest Loser, even Jersey Shore (yeah, sorry). I just love it! And singing songs to High school musical, Hairspray, Disney songs etc! Love it!

That was fun!

Now I need to choose some peeps to answer the same questions. This is hard as I have seen a lot of people answer this over the last few days. I had better be quick!

Laura @ Box, Run, Eat

Ffion @ Chocolate and Raspberries

Meri @ Meri Goes Round

Lucy @ Porridge and Parsnips

And sorry if you already did it ๐Ÿ™‚

And everyone else- How decisive are you?

And my job for the next week is to update my recipes page, as a few people have asked me for different recipes and I am having to use the search button to find them. ย ๐Ÿ™‚ ย Night

  1. Oh, I am terribly indecisive. I am very committed and vehement in my preferences, but when it comes to anything unexpected and/or significant, decisions make my head spin. And then when I make a decision I spend weeks agonizing over whether it was the right one…then generally deciding I was wrong all the long and regretting whichever choice I’ve made. I can’t even choose between packets of blueberries in M&S (took me ten minutes and I bought the first one I picked up in the end today. True story.)

    I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better: Laura and I both had weird sickness/tummy bugs about a month ago so I’m wondering if yours is part of the same strain of thing?

    Tangled is indeed fab: I love the series of scenes in which Rapunzel is trying to hide/dispose of the unconscious body and it keeps falling out of the wardrobe (terrible description!) And the entire aesthetic of the film was divine.

  2. I’m feeling a lot of brownie love at the moment too!
    I can be really indecisive. My problem is sticking to my decisions more than making them. I suffer from a lot of capriciousness and so I make a decision but then change my mind. I’m the same as Jess, I can be very steadfast on somethings but really wishy-washy and bad at making other decisions.
    Glad to hear you are feeling better!

  3. Ugh, people not pulling their weight is so annoying! I deal with that in lab all the time. Apparently, I’m the only person to step up and take charge in groups…every.single.time. Everyone else will just sit there staring at the wall..and then copy other people’s work! Ugh.

  4. Spiders really freak me out too! *shudder*
    I am terribly indecisive- I cannot make a decision without getting somebody else to weigh in on my options too!

    Glad to hear you’re feeling better!

  5. Glad to hear you felt a bit better and hope better still today ๐Ÿ™‚
    It’s great to find out mroe about people and I love your answers – with you on the drivers, especially at roundabouts, and Build Me Up Buttercup is such a tune!
    I saw Tangled recently too and loved it – genius film ๐Ÿ™‚
