The weekend: tea and sparkling wine and zoo

Went to Maija's and JP's place on Friday. Their new baby looks like Churchill, and also a little bit like JP. Had a very nice evening, and a lot of tea.

On Saturday went to the park with Anu and had some sparkling wine there. It's funny how there are so much fewer people drinking in a park in September than in summer, even though the weather was lovely.

Yesterday went to the zoo with Killeri. The leopard and one of the lions have kittens (separately, obviously, and not together), and they are awfully cute. Also the bears were cute. One of them was just sitting there on his ass scratching his balls, and occasionally waving his front paw at people, just like some politician.

The newest Pratchett novel, Thud, is finally here.

I have very little energy lately, I don't understand why. I am not particularly overstressed at work, not doing anything else, and am not physically sick (AFAIK). Either I am not getting enough sleep, or am overdue for a vacation, or most likely both.

Not getting enough sleep is due to the construction work in our yard that wakes me up every morning. When will they finally go away?
