Drink Up Me Hearties, Yo-Ho!

It is utterly freezing here at the moment. The nights are starting to get really cold too. Not the best when you have shoddy circulation like mine. My left arm's probably the worst. If I'm sleeping on my back I have to make sure it's flat on the bed beside me or It'll end up waking me up in the middle of the night quite painfully and starved for blood. I can't even drape it across my stomach. It's impossible.
The doctor has me on some Ginko Biloba pills to try and improve the circulation and I try to get as much exercise as I can, lifting weights and such. Nothing ever seems to make much of a difference though. Just one of those things I guess.
Went shopping today for some buttons for my newly knitted top and a few other odds and sods like that. Wandered into Target and picked up some new sheepskin slippers as my old ones were literally full of holes. Made from genuine sheepskin as I've found they better for warmth and last longer. The label almost put me off though. It had a picture of two cute little sheep prancing about a field. Made me feel really bad that one or more of those little sheepies ended up dead just so people like me could keep their feet warm. I'm not sure that's what they were going for in marketing. :p
Also found - and bought - the complete series of The Vicar Of Dibley. They had all 3 seperately for $12. I thought $36 for three complete series (plus all the specials) of any television show was a total bargin.
Would have picked up the first season of Bostol Legal as well except they had it priced at $68. A little too rich for me, especially considering that they also had the second season for a good $10 cheaper on the same rack.
As I was leaving the instore radio was playing I Second That Emotion by The Miracles and it really left me wanting to get out my Blackpool DVDs again. (Still can't believe they're going to make an American version. Not even Hugh Jackman could save it). Ended up singing the song the whole way home (in fact it's made it's way into my head agian).
Will be seeing PotC: At World's End this Thursday with a friend. Even though sequals like these are rarely ever as good as the original films I'm still expecting it to be a lot of fun. Plus who could say no to a little Johnny Depp? :p
Long post but I have to add again how much I love The Shat (William Shatner). Denny Crane riding around on his midget girlfriend's Segway at the end of tonight's episode. Wondeful. :D
