How Extroverted Are You?

urgh bleagh grllmp.

I don't like being here. It's soporific, it makes me even lazier than usual and the mess is making me depressed. I'm lounging around failing to get dressed, reading, playing with myself, watching TV, falling asleep every time I sit still for too long and not getting round to the cleaning.

Spike and Squish are enjoying it though - so much more opportunity for havoc and destruction. Spike is happy enough staring at the cat most of the day, with the odd dash-out-the-back-door-to-bark-at-nothing break, but Squish has already chewed up a scouring sponge he found in the bathroom and an unidentified plastic object (at least, it was unidentifiable by the time I found the pieces) and added a huge hole to the middle of what remains of Mum's lawn. He did this yesterday evening after it had been raining all day, too, so I looked out of the patio doors and saw his whole front half plastered with liquid mud... I had to pick him up and carry him to the bathroom and then shut the patio doors to stop Spike trying to swim in the hole.

We did go to the park yesterday, and since Squish has been improving and the long line is useless anyway if he has enough room to get speed up, I let him off the lead. He was doing really well - coming when called and everything - until Spike went into Evil Bugger mode and sharked the ball out from in front of his nose and broke his concentration. It was still something of an improvement, because all Squish did was run round the park ignoring me for five minutes and then come back without being called, but it wasn't quite what I'd wanted to happen.

Went shopping last night and also dropped back in at the flat for an hour to pick up some clothes and check on Charlotte and so forth. I WANNA GO HOOOOME!!!! Being here is like all the bad effects of smoking pot without any of the pleasant ones... I haven't had any for about four weeks now (mainly to save money for the London trip but also because it was just making me eat too much - taking a break from it seemed like a good plan) but it's so annoying being here that I'm starting to fancy some.

Except then I'd never get any cleaning done. So scratch that idea. Bleagh, bleagh, bleagh.

Edited to add: The one bright spot in the mess and squalor is Hollow Men. It may actually be exceeding expectations. And my expectations can be bloody high...
