Don't wanna

desperanceAch. The door is in, the men are gone, my house is all my own again. The boys are fed, Mac is purring on my knee (a double win, for it means he isn't tormenting Baz elsewhere). My own dinner is in process; there is a large dish of steak and kidney stewing gently with mushrooms and onions and fennel and tomatoes and red wine and beef stock. Another day I may toss pastry together and make a pie of it, but today the thing itself will be sufficient.
The rest of that bottle of wine is available, and so is the rest of the day. I am poised and ready to work - and I don't wanna. I feel tired, after a long day of doing nothing. I had planned by now to be watching The Inn of the Sixth Happiness, which is one of my shan't-be-guilty secret pleasures, but there was a confusion in my head over what channels I currently have available, and this turns out not to be one of them. I might of course watch a DVD instead; but a window of time opened, and I thought "I could get some work done after all!" - and I don't wanna. Excuses have I none, I just don't wanna.
This is unusual these days, and I do not like it, Gunga Din.
