I’ve been invaded!

January 11th, 2008

At this precise minute in time, I have a house full of men. Now some ladies out there may wonder quite what the problem with this is. These aren’t just men – these are war gamers. Grown men, often with kids themselves playing with tiny fighting men…. They are all up for the weekend for a tournament – lots of teams of men fighting with each other with models no more than an inch and a half high. 8 of them have taken roost in my house although some of them are polite enough to speak to me. I think I scare some of them as although David is really into the hobby, I have enough hobbies of my own to take my time up and I have no interest whatsoever in war games. One of them so far hasn’t spoken yet and he’s been here 3 hours. I think maybe when he does it will be quite poetic. At least I hope that it will be.
I have taken sanctuary in blogging and embroidering cupcakes (and sarcasm) – I think it’s making me want to wear pink and be ultra-girly and fluffy. Stella is in her element – lots of men to get a fuss from. Goodness knows where Boo is – she’ll be in some very dark corner where no one can see her. I hope that she isn’t out – we have a fox in the gardens, and I don’t want him having Boo for supper.

At least one thing about being invaded – it’s given me the chance to have a play on David’s laptop (it’s tiny and cute) and update my blog. I think after I have finished work tomorrow and before I get invaded again by a bunch of people dissecting the day’s battles I will take some pictures of my recent acquisitions and do something other than rant. Until then, wish me luck in surviving…… xoxo

    You poor thing, you have my every sympathy.

    Lets hope that your enigmatic visitor speaks soon. When he does you’ll have to let us know what he says :)

    Take care flower.

    You know where to come if you want to escape!

    Poor you, nasty smelly men all over the house.

    Are we all meeting up this Wednesday?

    Sorry ladies I won’t be able to meet up this week. We’re going over to the caterer’s to sort out final arrangements and taste some of her lovely cooking! Yum :)
