Finding people who eat things that are still alive

I didn't want to go to work today. I'd not slept very well after I spent the night under a summer blanket following Sable deciding to wee on the bed while I was at work. Not that it was her fault - I'd accidentally locked her in the bedroom when I left for work...

I got up this morning at 6am and went to vote for the London Mayor. Even though I quite fancy Brian Paddock, I ended up voting for Ken Livingstone rather than facing the wrath of Chris and Maria. I did put Brian down as my second choice though so at least it'll count somewhere down the line.

Then I got ready for work and climbed back into bed with Chris. It just felt so good to be laying in bed with him and giggling about nothing together. But eventually it was time for me to leave for work.

I got to work and contacted the kiss and tell girl to say that we'd see her on Tuesday. Then I got hunting for someone who eats live food. Amazingly, you can eat a lot of things while they're still alive. Did you know that if you order Lobster Sashimi then the lobster is still alive on the plate and will keep moving all the way through your meal before it eventually dies. And that you can eat live octopus tentacles and live sashimi with the fish slices taken off the living fish while it's on the plate in front of you so it is still gasping for air as you eat. I was disgusted and hated seeing the footage on youtube - but it's my job to find things that people will watch and talk about afterwards so I hunted for the best I could.

Eventually I found a blog from a guy called Eddie who runs www.deepdowndining.com and saw what he gets up to. By then it was time to leave so I went to see Chris at work and had a lovely dinner at Giraffe. I had 2 glasses of wine and a lovely duck and noodle thing. The place was busy so Chris didn't have much time to spend with me but it was just nice to be around him.

I left and got the bus home. Then I sat on the sofa and watched Sex and the City with a gin and tonic.

I'm starting to feel a bit grown up. At last.

Sorting out the car

I finally got myself together to get the car fixed. I got it down to the garage before work on Monday and then went to get it first thing on Tuesday. I got to the garage early and it was still shut so I went for a wander. I'm amazed at how many very sexy Polish men there are wandering around the streets of Seven Sisters of a morning.

I got the car and drove home before getting ready and going to work.

I spent an hour on the phone to the Halifax to sort out my finances. Then I managed to find a great kiss and tell girl for the Greed show and she's Scottish with a passion for shagging the likes of Robbie Williams, Daniel Baldwin, Eminem and more before selling her story to the press. Great!

After work I got home and felt like going out. I dragged Chris out to see Chris Reardon at The Golden Lion in Kings Cross for his karaoke night. Chris was shattered but he managed to force a couple of glasses of red wine down him. There were a few of the old Gran Canaria crowd there which was nice.

We stopped off at Tesco on Essex Road and got some shopping in. Then we got home and had pizza and a few glasses of wine while watching Family Guy.

Chris had a full day of work in the morning so I ironed a shirt for us both and sent him off to work while I got ready for another day of sinner hunting.

Picnic on a sunny day

I got up around 11am and pottered around the flat. I was shattered and a bit hungover but that soon went.
It was such a lovely day and I did some laundry and let it dry on the roof garden. I woke Chris up around 1pm and we decided to go for a picnic in the park. He was really hungover and tired but we got some ice cream and other stuff and went to sit in the sun in the park for a couple of hours.
He went to work and I pottered home. I got my hair cut and then sat watching TV. As the evening went on I got more and more tired and decided to go for a little lie down for an hour.
Chris called me at 10.30 to see if I wanted to go to his bosses house for a party after work and I said yes but then I fell back to sleep and when I woke up there was no way I could have been sociable and so I sent him a text to say I couldn't get out of bed.
I fell back to sleep and only woke up when I heard Chris crashing through the front door at 5.30am. He actually looked really great considering he'd been doing dirty drugs at someone's house with people from work and an alcoholic flatmate. Sable had coughed up a fur ball right by the bedroom door and he was busy cleaning it up when I made it out of the bedroom.
I got him back into bed and of course he was horny with all the coke so I knobbed him and we went to sleep.
When the alarm went off at 8.30am I got up, ironed his top for work, laid out some pants and socks and his top along with his jeans. Made him a coffee and ran him a bath. Then I woke him up and helped him get ready for work.
He left and I chatted to Clive on Facebook for a bit while doing more laundry. I really must sort the car out today but I'm still tired so might just go and have a nap for a bit.

Back from filming in Boston again

So we finished all our filming in Boston and I drove back to London. Maria slept part of the way back down and I was shattered too but being able to drive a Mercedes ML 4x4 for 3 hours was so much fun I was determined to enjoy every second.
Chris was going to go out and meet his ex flatmate Jamie for drinks in Crouch Hill and he asked if I wanted to join them but when I got home, Jamie hadn't rang so we decided to go to Il Baccio in Highbury instead.
We had some really great food and a bottle of wine. It was so nice to just sit and chat. I brought up the fact that he hadn't changed his gaydar profile since we got together and that I would prefer it if people didn't assume he was single and making suggestive comments to him when he logged on drunk from time to time. He looked upset that he hadn't done it sooner and I felt awkward for bringing it up. But that passed and we went home, got another bottle of wine and watched Malice on TV.
I was shattered and wanted to go to bed but we sat up longer. Chris got drunk and excited so I went to sleep and he sat up reading for a bit on the sofa.
