Today

Today was summer solstice. We worked on the allotment till late and saw a beautiful sunset.

Today we worked all day on my allotment and I planted my first tomato.

Today we started work on my allotment. I felt bad killing the 'weeds'. Gardening for now seems to be mostly about killing.

Today I watched Alien with Peter and we were very impressed by the cat's acting.

Today I was exhausted from work and all the excitement of the week, and so I stayed at home (to read the gardening books) while Peter went out to meet our Oxford Flickr friends.

Today we had a lovely dinner and tea at Ash and Monika's.

Today was a great day for me. I formally became the proud owner of an allotment, I also attended the Oxford City Go Club for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed my first game with a human that isn't Peter.

Today I spent all evening looking at spades and forks.

Today I decided to accept the allotment, and bought The Essential Allotment Guide in preparation for it.

Today I went to view an allotment plot, they seemed to think I was a gardening idiot, but I would really like to try.

Today I had a horrible day, and it was my holiday too.

Today was Peter's birthday, I finally got to play with the slate and clamshell Go set that I got him.

Today I finished watching 曲げられない女, and was happy with the happy ending.

Today Peter accepted the job in Plymouth, and we got excited about upcoming changes such as long distance relationship and the sea.

Today I went to Suzy's for games night (despite the rain). We played Carcassonne and I won!

Today I played a four hour game of igo with Peter, and lost by only 4 moku after much whining.

Today I nursed a migraine for half a day. Why do I always get migraine after driving lessons on Saturdays?

Today I wished Peter's birthday would come sooner so I could give him his present.

Today Peter made a marvellous dinner for me. Yum!

Today I reminded myself that being around people I dislike is a good learning experience for me.
