Urgh. I ache from all the cleaning! The lounge was viciously attacked by a hoover, duster and bin bag at the weekend. It's never been so amazingly clean - the carpet is blue again! Problem is now it doesn't match with the rest of the flat (which is a PIGSTY!) and it took so goddamn long do the lounge I can't face the rest of it. So sore I didn't go swimming, to yoga or to ballet.
Ballet? Yoga! I hear you cry.
Yoga is to be expected I suppose - I've been whinging about a desire to do it for ages. My inflexibility is so damn embarrassing that I've been putting it off. But I went and it was good, so I'll most likely go again.
The Ballet thing - don't worry, you shall not be seeing me prance around a stage in a tutu anytime soon. It's more an exercise thing - after all, my two left feet and generally embarrassing nutter-dancing-style is hardly compatible to any aspirations to dance properly. But it will improve my co-ordination, posture, and it's more of a work out than you would think. So I'll keep going - I'll have to get over the dancer-bitches glances, which isn't a problem. Growing up at the theatre there were plenty of dancer-bitches. Admittedly, I was never trying to dance in front of them before, but still.
We have a new person working with us. I shall call her the Pink Lady. She's obsessed with pink. She wears a pink top EVERY day. Actually I lie - I was gobsmacked today when she walked in with a yellow top - although it still had a pink vest under it. I swear to you - a whole month, every day a pink top. The tragedy of it is, she really doesn't suit pink. There's a shade of skin and hair colour that's just a stage before ginger. Somewhere inbetween brown hair and red. Not even really strawberry, but nearly there. Skin again, between english pale and freckly redhead. In other words, NOT a complexion for pink. A complexion that can look great with a whole range of other colours, but definitely not pink. Especially baby pink. The fuscia pink actually looks really good on her, but baby pink is a no-no. And her favourite colour of choice. The day she turns up wearing no pink, I'm gonna buy her a nice cake or a drink of some kind - see if I can set in some positive associations. If she comes in wearing black I might give her a tenner.
