Stricken

Spent the whole week mostly lying in bed. Within this time, I finished:

1) Season 4 of Nip/Tuck - love it, no matter how crap it has become.

2) Over 20 documentaries on Nat Geo Wild (Ultimate Enemies: Lions vs Elephants is a masterpiece - narrated by Jeremy Irons in beautifully affected poetry, with staggering footage of lions leaping upon elephants).

3) The Lake House - Keanu and Sandra, but I liked Il Mare more.

4) Black Powder War and Empire Of Ivory by Naomi Novik of the captivatingTameraire series, the first piece of historical fiction involving the world as we knew it, but with dragons.

5) 1 pack Kettle Chips Salt and Cracked Pepper, 1 bag Pepperidge Farm Sausalito giant cookies, 1 box Chicken-in-a-Biskit (my favourite by far), 4 cartons Cranberry Juice.

6) 3 types of Antibiotics: green, white, yellow. 42 Painkillers.

7) 1 premature love-affair. 3 bottles of wine.

8) 0 hours of gym. Endless hours doing nothing online.
