No one home, but I've left the cat on charge...

It's been a stressful few days - boyfriend has been sent to stay with friends 5 miles past Wherethefuckarewe and we've been missing each other like crazy. It sounds stupid but this is the longest we've been apart in almost ten months. I caved and am now sitting on a bus to Ohhellthisisalongbusjourney, where I can either get a connecting bus to Wherethefuckarewe or a taxi if it's too late at night for bussing it.

I will be passing through small towns in Fife I would never have known existed if the Number 58 bus hadn't decided to grace them with it's presence. And I used to live in Fife, so these towns
must be pretty obscure.

That's not to say they're not pretty and picturesque, but unfortunately it also doesn't mean I am any more likely to remember their names.

I spent my first Saturday on my own in a long time, woke up, went shopping, had sushi...everything was a bit blah today, though there were a couple things that brightened up my day.

First, there was "the cupcake". At five minutes to seven in the Harvey Nicks food hall, the girl at the Chocolate Lounge - the new conveyer belt pudding bar on the fourth floor - directed me to the deli when I asked for a cupcake to go. I went for the strawberry cheesecake option, with pink frosting and glitter, and topped with a single slice of caramellised strawberry. I wish I'd taken a photo, but I ate it so fast before I even remembered my phone has a camera!

The second thing was this - also pink. I'm not usually a pink person; my favourite colours are yellow and orange. But I was throwing a few things into a bag to take with me and this tote made me smile. It zips up into a square pouch!
