My annual day of celebration

This year, I spent the most of November 15th at the hospital. Don't worry, nothing wrong, just a fun psychology study. I had to drink a mix containing amino acids and then play a series of computer matching games which was supposed to measure my depression levels. It was a long day, but at least I got paid 25 pounds! When I came home, James was gone, but posted this sign on the fridge.

James bought me much needed items: black socks for work and new shoe laces for my old, beat up shoes (new shoe laces does wonders to an old pair of shoes, I've learned!) He also got me a box of macaroni 'n' cheese, and a British food cookbook. He then made a wonderful dinner using recipes found in the cookbook. James also made a good, American classic, funfetti cake with white frosting and sprinkles.


On Saturday, I bought a really good quality winter sport jacket. It is made of strong, durable, waterproof material with a removable fleece lining. This will come in very handy for fighting the oncoming rainy and windy weather here. I can't wait to use it!
