In and out

I love In and Out posts but rarely do them, so I thought it was about time :)

IN

Angry Birds - I am a tad out of the loop here as I don't have an iPhone, but Mr L recently sorted out my iPod Touch and downloaded a few things for me. How addictive and utterly frustrating is this game?! Mr Lollipop and Brother Lollipop are obsessed a bit too. It's infuriating how smug those pesky little green pigs smile and giggle when you fail a level. Grrr.

Pink lipstick - I adore nude lipsticks because they're so easy to wear, but I've really enjoyed wearing pink lately. There's a pink suited to every look and occasion, and I feel really girly and pretty when wearing it. Some favourites include MAC's Angel, MAC's Snob and YSL's Lingerie Pink. All pretty and all wearable.

Milkybar Raisin & Biscuit chocolate - Yum yum for my tum. 'Nuff said!

Lovely emails and tweets - I have been really touched by some messages that I've been receiving lately, from book recommendations or quick messages from people who have only recently found my blog, or having a good old natter about London. Whatever the reason they've been putting a smile on my face, so if you have messaged or tweeted me recently, thank you!

Babies - It's my niece's first birthday on Sunday so Mr L's sister is having a BBQ to celebrate (weather permitting). It should be quite fun. Also the 'Yummiest Mummy To Be' over at Laura's Bloggy Blog is waiting for the arrival of her Baby Nugget. I'm checking Facebook and Twitter all the time to check for any progress! Hurry up Nugget, Good Luck Laura, and Happy Birthday Eliza! It's almost enough to make me broody... but not quite.

My upcoming week off work - As of next Wednesday I'll be off work for 11 days, and I can't wait! Mr L is away at Legoland with his brother and nephews for 2 days, so I'll start my holiday with a bit of much needed me-time and a pampering session with The Mothership. Then I'll have a whole week with Mr L, just chilling out and doing lovely things, like having cinema dates, going out for yummy meals, and quite possibly some shopping. I'm so excited!

Don't Tell The Bride - I loooooove this programme, whereby a groom has £12,000 and 3 weeks to plan his wedding, with no contact from his bride. The brides tend to do my head in - why go on the show if you're such a control freak/spoilt brat? But it's compelling viewing, plus I get to see some pretty weddings. Would you trust your other half? I think I would, you know...

OUT

The weather - Disgustingly cold, wet, dark and generally miserable. Where's my sunshine, damn it?!

Feeling poorly - I've been a little run down this week, and I blame the weather. I've had a bit of a sore throat but have been dosing myself up everyday. I blame the weather.

Skin issues - Again, I blame the weather. My lips are chapped, my cheeks are dry and my nose is red and flaky. I've taken to wearing Bio-Oil as a daily moisturiser, which is just wrong. Doing it's job though, which is all I care about!

My NVQ - My final deadline is October 4th, which is freaking me out slightly as I still have a ton of work left to do. It means a payrise though, so it'll be worth it in the end.

And because they're super duper cute and make me smile:

What are your In's and Out's?
