smashing

so beaver broke his official tea mug this morning. while in the process of cooking me breakfast. which meant I had to finish cooking my breakfast while he cleaned up the mess, and i narrowly avoided getting boiling hot tea all over my leg.

it was one of my favourite mugs too. one i've had since i was young. it had a partner, but my cat Mitzi broke that one years ago. the mug was brown, hand made pottery, with a cats face on the front. the one Mitz smashed had a smiling cat, the one beaver broke had a confused cat. i forget where they came from.

so I have bought beaver a new mug to drink tea out of, since he's not getting his hands on any of mine. Its got a white inside, which is a shame, as that means i'll have to clean it more often, but it is kinda funky. it has tweety pie on it.

It's always sad when things one has had from childhood break - you have my sympathies :o(

The mug is smashed. Long Live the New Mug!

i cleared out my jewellery box the other day too. was amazing how many things i'd kept even though i've not worn them since I was about 9. but i was ruthless and out they have gone.. had to make room for anything new i buy now....

I'm never very good at that. If I had it when I wasnine, then even though I will never, ever where it again, it means so much more.

*is pathetic* I'll have to do some clearing out soon though, I guess. I have WAY too much stuff.
