I can't do what ten people tell me to do, So I guess I'll remain the same.

Sherlock has texted me to inform me he really NEEDS a pet owl, and even if we won't let him have one, he'll get one when he's older.

So...there we go. I wasn't even sure how to respond. Except obviously he actually texts me using John's phone, so when my message 'Right. Do what you like once you move out.' appeared on the screen I think John thought he'd missed half an argument or something! I got a very questioning text back...



...just realised I started writing this many hours ago, and never continued. Stuff came up.

One of my officers fell down the stairs while searching a house this morning...Bruised ego luckily seems to be the worst of his injuries.

I feel like I've been in meetings forever recently. Not why I became a police officer!!

Mycroft's back with us this weekend. He is currently being regaled with tales of guinea pigs. Lucky that was last weekend - I'm not sure we could have coped with the dogs in the mix as well! The pigs would have made a nice mouthful for them...

Not sure what we're going to do with ourselves.

I heard a good quote which makes me think of Mycroft the other day - "The night hides the world, but reveals the universe."

And have you heard they're going to move Dippy in the National History Museum?? Unbelievable! Going to replace him with a blue whale. Which I'm sure will be spectacular, but... Dippy... (Mycroft has shaken his head and said he can't believe people have given it a nickname.)


They re-created Winston Churchill's Funeral today, on the river. Would've been interesting to see. I think the river police led the boats out - they get all the best jobs! Maybe I should apply for a transfer.

Maybe Sherlock could spend a little time tomorrow telling us about some of the more fun things he did this half term? (And John could sit and watch.)

I confess to having occasionally taken a day off of work during the kids' first week back to school after the winter holidays. Mostly to experience the joy of silence and the luxury of an uninterrupted thought.

Yeah, J doesn't get even backup until Sunday when I'm off. He's on his own! Everyone wants half term off, and as I got Valentine's weekend I've got to suck up the rest. Still...sleep's for the weak, right? ;)

Which explains why he hasn't rescued you from (*dum dum dum*) the Second Page of Comments!

I know terrible husband, eh? ;) still, can't hold it against him

I'm glad you got your valentines trip days off but it's a shame you can't escape work to save your husband from exhaustion ;-)

Has Sherlock been full of plans all week or has he been 'bored' all week needing entertaining?

Trust me, whatever time you are home is helpful. And I'm sure you're a comfort in the extremely narrow window between the time he gets into bed and the moment he passes out from exhaustion!

No, you can't. Especially when there are so many other things to hold against him...

Greg Lestrade said...

I try to hold a much against him as possible at any given time

Not going to be very helpful tonight. Migraine. Take away food needed. Fish on Friday maybe?

REReader said...

*whispering* Ouch. Feel better soon.

Hope you get the migraine under control soon.

See, DW, it's not that that particular interpretation hadn't occurred to me, but I couldn't remark upon it with your innocent succinctness. You can go all "what? who me?" if you must, but I tender my respect!
