News alert: my foot is slowly improving, and/or turning purple. According to "Dr" Dan, the handsome podiatrist with a poor bedside manner, all will be revealed next Monday when they see the X-rays, remove stitches, etc.
In the meantime, he says I must spend another week lolling about the house. How shall I fill my time?
1. Jigsaws
2. Work
3. Colouring
4. Eating meals cooked by TM:
5. Watching TV
On the subject of television, here's the conversation we had at lunchtime:
PM: You’re reading Scientific American. I’m watching BRIDES OF BEVERLY HILLS.
TM: And creating a rift in our marriage.
PM: Feel free to look for another wife, any time.
TM: I agreed to marry you ‘for better or worse.’ There was no mention of television.
Later today I was watching THE MILLIONAIRE MATCHMAKER, starring Patti Stanger. I'd recorded it so I can pause whenever TM interrupts with sarcastic commentary, e.g.:
Patti [on TV]: Don’t tell a woman everything on the first date. You have to keep a little mystery.
TM: Like why this show is still on the air.
Of course, I'm doing other things as well, like reading, sleeping, doing university work, etc. There just aren't enough bridal shows on TV.
