don't try to change my mind, I'm being cruel to be kind

I spent today as if it was Sunday. Meaning, I cleaned my bedroom. I prefer cleaning in the mornings when I'm able to see the dust particles, which is why I didn't clean yesterday, the actual Sunday. No cos, Sunday mornin' I was working. Despite getting a bit hectic at the end of my shift, it was a good day at work. The Christmas party on Saturday was ace. Way, way better than what I'd expected. It's the strangest thing, seeing your co-workers in their own clothes, rather than the white uniform we usually don in each others company. "I didn't recognise you," one commented. I said "nah, it's cos I've actually got eye-shadow on, isn't it?". First of all, I hadn't realised there would be more than my co-workers who works with lung patients attending. Nor did I realise doctors usually attended as well. I ended up hiding behind a wall to scare someone, I feed my unsuspecting neighbour, someone put a pine cone on my head, and so on. After our stomachs had been well-fed, we pushed the tables back to make space for a dance floor. And then we danced until we got sweaty and in need for cooling down. As I had work Sunday morning, I sadly left the party at 10.30 pm. Can't say I had the best of sleeps, but come morning I managed. After work yesterday, I went to see Oyster at her house. We basically sat down and had a four hour-long chat. It's not even a joke. I came to realise Oyster and I are more alike than I'd noticed. You learn something new about people all the time, despite how long you've known them. I walked home on the cold winter night. The trek from her house to mine, is actually one of those I thoroughly enjoy, because it usually means I walk through the centre of the place we live, and it's nice to see what people get up to. I've officially started planning Christmas presents, started asking people for their wishes. I always do a list in a notebook I've had for years. Oyster laughed at my problem, but as we've gotten a new sofa this year, it takes up a lot more space than the old ones. It means I've no idea where to put the Christmas tree this year. My second favourite part about Christmas is decorating the tree, which is why it's so important that I find a spot for the tree. I'll probably be thinking about this for the whole of this week. Right now I'm going to put some nail varnish on, then watch Grand Designs. Been a good Monday.
