Rehearsal time

I've got rehearsals for the Basil Brush show this week and I didn't realise. I didn't twig that it was March tomorrow (How blonde am I).I thought that was next week....doh!

So Wednesday and Thursday nights they've booked me a hotel in Maidstone - rehearsing 9-1 on Thursday and all day Friday.....

So what to do with the munchkin....My mother is being amazing - she's staying in the hotel with me and Oscar on Weds night and then for the half day on Thursday will amuse herself while I rehearse. Then we'll all drive back to London, I'll get to look after Oz all afternoon, put him to bed and then drive back up to Maidstone and have a night all by myself in a hotel!

I know Poppy did this recently and I'm actually really looking forward to it in a sick "I'm an evil mother" sort of way. A whole night to myself! In a hotel! No baby, no nappies, no night-time wakeup call.....

I have a £10 dinner allowance too (woo hoo! The BBC are so generous). Probably won't stretch to room service but still.....a night off.....

Don't know how DH will cope! He never wakes up when Oz does in the night - even with screaming....so maybe Oscar will have to sleep through!

BTW - he did sleep through again last night! Yay Oz!

Ok so I'm feeling such a mixture of guilt and excitement about the rest of the week! What do you think?

I'm S-A-Double-Lizzy

I've stolen this from the lovely Aimee's site -

GIZOOGLE

It's very funny. You type in a URL and it translates it - snoop styley....

I put in my acting webpage and got such funny translations as:

Original: Click here to see full CV including television, theatre and radio.

Gizoogled: Cliznick here ta see fizzull CV includ'n televizzle theatre n radio wizzle

I also gizoogled the blog - the caption below under Oscar in the bath now reads

How skanky is mah baby boy? He's sizzuch a wanna be gangsta baby

It's very funny - try it - thank you AimeeRoo!

Oscar in the bath

How cute is my baby boy?
(those aren't my hands by the way - I'm not THAT hairy - they belong to Dear Husband...)

He's such a water baby!

Well kind of a dull day really - nothing much to report...had a lie in this morning (thank you DH) cos Oz was up for an hour in the night....and I really thought we'd cracked it...ah well.

Went to the supermarket on my own which is something I haven't done for ages.....got a couple of DVDs out to watch. I'm so boring and suburban. Read my Basil Brush script - it's very funny - very mean to Peter Andre - totally takes the piss....I'm really looking forward to rehearsals on the 3rd March - next week! Eek! Better learn my lines....

Oz is just having his massage at the moment (DH's job) so I'm typing quickly as DH likes to use the puter in the evening. Though he has got Sky Captain to watch so I may get back and write some more dribble...

If not - speak tomorrow when I may have something interesting to say...then again....

OOO! I'm a chubby girl

I'm so excited. I'm officially now a member of the Chubby Girl Brigade!!! I have been accepted into their hallowed presence.

Looky here!

Jerilyn has written me a beautiful intro and thank you to her...I'm totally honoured! Though she's going to hate me when she reads what I wrote about Colin Firth on the comments. It's true - I met him - I didn't like him - he's quite obnoxious in my humble (non-sueable) opinion.

I don't get why women find him so attractive anyway. My mother is totally obsessed with him - every time he's in a play in London she's there - front row - drooling.....

Now give me a man like Josh Lucas.....

And yet another.....
