castalieCaveat: I apologise in advance to those who are at work *hugs*
First (official, as the first weekend doesn't count) day of vacation going splendidly. That first Monday is, I think, the best time in a holiday because your weekend doesn't seem that different from the usual but then Monday comes and lo, you don't have to get up early to go to work and you realise you won't have to be back for a long time! You don't have to get up at all if you don't want to! How awesome is that? ♥
I had a busy Friday night and our Saturday was quite active too but I did get my Lazy Ass Day on Sunday, though we did manage to move our asses and do some shopping (yay, dresses!) late afternoon. Today is a semi-repeat. Lie-in followed with some lazing around in bed and catching up on LJ and fic reading. Then a flurry of activity when we decided to clean the flat (between you and me, it seriously needed it) and now that it's done we can laze around some more, knowing we Accomplished Something. Later in the afternoon we'll be going to my sister's and I'm hoping for a little swim with the girls at one point. Today is supposed to very hot (that is, the weather is supposed to feel like a normal, hot August day. I know, shocking!) and since we don't know how long it'll last, better make the best of it!
Tv wise, we've finally watched the premiere of Suits and it was fun; episodes 2 and 3 have been downloaded, I'm sure the rest will follow soon. I've also caved in and downloaded the first episodes of Sirens (I'm referring to the UK show) though I'm thinking I might wait to be with the FP in Alsace to watch it - keep it for our night program, when we retreat to the basement/home cinema room :-)
Alrighty, now off to get dressed! It's almost 2.00PM, I think it's a reasonable time for that *nod*

Date: 2011-08-01 12:18 pm (UTC)The good weather is only supposed to last for two/three days they said this morning, so do enjoy it! I hope English weather will behave a bit, if it doesn't rain, I'll already be happy. A bit of sun would be wonderful though!
I haven't even had time to watch True Blood season 4 yet, so let alone download anything else. And am already running behind on the Dexter eps they broadcast here as well. Maybe after the holidays, things will settle down :P I keep telling myself this, but they usually don't :P

Date: 2011-08-01 06:42 pm (UTC)That sounds like an excellent time. And if you do watch Sirens and think it's amazing it can be yet another Brit show you have to pimp me into.

Date: 2011-08-04 09:47 am (UTC)Excellent time is definitely a good way of putting it ♥
Lol I'll definitely keep that in mind and shall let you know what I think of Sirens ;-) As a teaser; you do know that Richard Madden (Robb Stark in Games of Thrones) plays a gay character in the show, right?

Date: 2011-08-08 03:40 pm (UTC)I do! It's just one of those shows I intended to watch, forgot and then had so much else to watch it got pushed to one side and forgotten about totally.
Until someone reminds me how awesome it is *g*
