such a perfect day

today has been gloriously sunny; perhaps england's way of winning me over again post-ny.

it kind of worked.

but my day was one of those lovely occasions when i felt i managed to achieve lots.

a lie in.

some work done.

alternating between the stone roses and the kills on my ipod.

lunch with a friend.

home, via the florist to pick up some peonies for myself.

spooning on the wicker sofa in my garden with the cat.

a photo and dress up sesh for the blog.

and then i went to watch the kills. solo.

the first time i've done that; i figured i love going to the cinema alone and i felt strong enough after the lovely day to push myself out of my comfort zone a bit. glad i did. you should try it.

so that's my day.

what about you lot?

and those pictures will be up in a bit, so you'll be able to peek at my stateside purchases, yess?
