The BBC News just announced that "President Obama has secretly authorised covert assistance to rebels seeking to overthrow Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi" and "He recently signed a secret document".
Secretly authorised and signed a secret document.
Can't be that bloody secret if it's all over the 10 o'clock news, now can it??
Thanks for all the birthday wishes. I will get round to responding to you all, honest. Had a pretty decent day. Got rained on this morning, dug post-holes, got filthy dirty. Fun. Came home, showered & then went out for dinner with my cousin and a couple of friends. We went to the tapas bar. I didn't spill anything, break anything, or drop anything. I didn't knock the waitress over, or cause her to drop anything. No food went into orbit. I reckon that counts as a pretty successful meal.
Then we went to the film club to watch an art-house type movie called Room in Rome. It was best described as "weird". I have had plenty of casual encounters but none like this. And I think if I ever did have one like this I'd be tempted to check myself into a padded room at Colney Hatch, not a hotel room in Rome!!
Got lots of nice pressies, too. Stuff from both my sisters, and my nephew, and my cousin. Though my (remaining) brother forgot it was my birthday - again.
I guess sharing a birthday (although ten years apart) is one of the reasons I'm close to my cousin. After all, when you've babysat someone and read them your equivalent to a bedtime story, for several years, (Rudyard Kipling poems - I think she still likes to listen to Gunga Din!!), when you did a bit of growing up in the same house, you share a birthday, you have the same taste in tv & films (mostly) and she's smart enough to support the same football team, you kind of wind up as best mates.
It's a good life.
See you next week, goodnight and may your God/s go with you.
