hiya, sorry about that post, yvan is right, i went to a party last night to celebrate a friend's birthday and came home at 5.30 (much later than i planned). my computer was still on (forgot to turn it off before leaving, oops !) and in my *ahem* somewhat compromised state

(quite a bit to drink, as for eating... hm, i remember having some cake...) i left a little note before stumbling off to bed... too difficult to make the switch from french to english in my condition !

vcat and yvan were sympathising with me and recommending i have some aspirin for breakfast (sound advice !).
today, miraculously, i did not wake up with a headache (although i think i feel one coming on now, but probably for lack of sleep), however despite my firm intention to sleep at least 9 or 10 hours (i was tired *before* i went to the party !) i woke up spontaneously (or maybe the rain woke me ?) before 11. grrr.

that's only about 4 and something hours sleep which is about half of a good night, as far as i'm concerned. so i'm feeling pretty fuzzy-headed today and definitely not in olympic form. and it is grey and gloomy and rainy outside, which makes me want even less to go back out, as i am supposed to do in about half an hour or less to see a samba demonstration of a different friend (i am sure she got a good night's sleep last night !). i think i am going to need a weekend (or a full week) to recover from this weekend...

*sigh* i think i'm getting too old for this sort of thing.
