have pretty fish to watch, talk to and look after, meaning she won't worry so much about silly things or make things up.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After being accused of not being in touch with reality, I have been getting up very early to cook breakfast for dad and going to bed very late.&lt;div&gt;It works out that I get about 3-4 hours of sleep per day, strangely enough, I feel better compared to when I sleep in and get at least 8 hours sleep.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have a short nap in the afternoon and catch a couple of hours early into the morning prior to plunging myself into the shower.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Speaking of an afternoon nap, I think I will have mine now!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br

Saturday, which, unfortunately appears to be the only day that the sun will shine for the rest of the week because it will be "showery".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Who on earth decided on the term "Showery"?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's hardly likely that we will be running into the streets or (for those of us who are less exhibitionist) into our gardens stark naked complete with Shower Gel, razor and back brush!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Anyone doing that would be arrested before you can say "Rubber Duck".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Eurovision song contest is on this weekend and the Irish entry was a Turkey of all things.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After a quick search on Google, it appears that this was not the only "Animal" entry in the contest.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Two or more "Animal" entries and it will be the Eurovision buffet!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
