You know, I've met people who state with pleasure that the thing they love the most in the world is their bed. I always think that is a bit of a waste, as you can't get much done in life from a bed. However, right at this moment, I am 100% with them. I love my bed, I love it so much; I want to marry it and have little futons together.
I tried to get out of badminton practice tonight, but the guilt bone activated when I was told that without me there would only be three people turning up (not enough!). So I turned up, and what followed was 2 hours of hard, solid badminton. With only four of us there was no respite (five of you, you get to sit off one match in five); just enough time to take a sip of fluids and back out on court again.
Good thing is that when I first started the Wednesday night thing about a year ago, I made it through about an hour and a quarter and had to stop before I collapsed. Tonight I am absolutely shattered, but made it through the whole two hours. I feel fitter, and evidence like that is incontrovertible (oh, god; a word of six syllables at this time of night, I need a lie down...................hang on........I am lying down!!)
Anyway, back to the new love of my life. When I got back tonight, I didn't sit down, just made straight for the shower while my spag bol (Heinz, really could not be faffed doing it myself!) was on the stove. Then I actually made myself a dinner tray, and took it upstairs to my nice electric blanketted bed. I've had my spag (on toast) and am about to tuck in to my yoghurt. Don't worry, I won't make a habit of it, but could I just say for just this once only, that it's lovely (not just the yoghurt, the whole tucked-up-in-bed-having-din-dins concept)!!! If you had seen me lummoxing round on the court tonight, you'd know I have earned it!
Anyway, if you don't mind I would like to be left alone with my new fiance; two's a company and all that..........

Had to count the syllables just to make sure you were right! I feel tired just reading about the badders ... note to self, I really do need to do some exercise as it sounds like such a good feeling afterwards! Enjoy your new love ...
