What a baby.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a gorgeous week but I&#8217;ve been so busy at work that I haven&#8217;t been enjoying much of it (what I can see of it through my red, irritated eyeballs). Haven&#8217;t made it out for a walk at lunch except once. Haven&#8217;t made it out for a walk after work except once&#8230;once I came home and promptly fell asleep for 2 hours and once I worked until 5:30 and then came home and did stuff around the house until I sat down to write this post. What am I complaining about? It&#8217;s only Wednesday! But geez freaking louise this week feels long.<\/p>\n<p>We watched the first Eurovision semi-final last night and I actually had to mute one of the songs, it was so screechy and awful.  And what if Russia wins, as they are tipped to do this year (though they&#8217;re tipped to win pretty much every year)&#8230;what will the gay Eurovision fanboys do?? They can&#8217;t go to Russia! They&#8217;re not welcome there! Actually, I think Sweden should just host it every year. We do a great job. Apparently the competition is being shown live in the US for the first time ever and I bet after the first three songs, someone was regretting that decision. Sheesh, what a trainwreck. However, we will of course, watch the second semi-final on Thursday and the final on Saturday because YOU CAN&#8217;T NOT WATCH IT.<\/p>\n<p>Especially if you have popped your eyeballs from rubbing them too hard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have rubbed my eyes so much and so hard in the last week that I&#8217;m seriously starting to wonder if I could damage my eyes (yes) or have permanent bloodshottiness (probably).
