Wheeeelchair

Postman brought me many things this morning. A bunch of clothes (including a set of pyjamas that had one top and two bottoms, tehfux?), a CD*, a zebra-stripe blanket and a wheelchair** to put it on! Immediately went out in the chair just to test it out, spent hours outside going all over the place and only got hurt due to Rambo's bad steering...but he's learning, bless him.

Was a tad confused as to what I was getting with the chair, as the item description said self propel and the picture was of an attendant chair, but they sent me a self propel so I, obviously, started trying to self propel in it as I couldn't resist the temptation. Hurt my shoulders more than my wrists to start with but I couldn't go more than say, 10 metres before I just couldn't take it anymore on my wrists, whereas the shoulders were only hurting as bad as they were when I started. Bit odd, that, but I don't really mean to go self-propelling it in so it's not really an issue. Just wanted to see if I could.

Despite being pushed around all day though, I am running severely low on spoons as The Music Man's moving up tomorrow and we've been in the process of moving rooms for the last few days as the Sister had the big room all to herself for some reason whilst Rambo and I squeezed into the smaller room (I may be exaggerating there, it wasn't really a squeeze.) Anyway, Rambo seems to feel the need to take an hour-long gaming break for every 10 minutes of work he does and when the cripple is doing more of the work than the perfectly-healthy boyfriend I think he might be taking the piss a little bit!

Still a little behind on FFM (two days, now) and tomorrow's challenge is a 'Celebrity Cameo' which is going to be awkward. I know shit all about celebrities. This is going to require research, no matter who I pick. Eww, research.





*Fighting Evil is Cool! - awesome ska band formed by some of my best friends, who made me pay for the CD as they've not made money to pay off printing costs yet. Boo. Friends should get free copies!

**Pictures will follow later, probably when I've dyed the blanket purple.
