Tonight I:

Did the solo mom thing, whilst the Sweetie had a night out

Took Ros to her fave restaurant

Went to the park afterwards

Let Ros help pack for our trip after she was ready for bed

Made potato salad for a work potluck tomorrow

Packed my own stuff up for the trip

Opened my BB story file up and stared stupidly at it without adding a single word

Apart from the failing to write thing, and the fact that I'm now utterly knackered, it was kind of a nice evening.

Also, I acquired the first of the new BBC Sherlock movies and watched it with a pal on Monday night. I LOVED IT! Like, a lot. Loved the interaction between Freeman's Watson and Cumberbatch's Holmes, loved the way they riffed on A Study in Scarlet, loved Mycroft, loved the whole thing. I can't wait to see the next two movies.

Sounds like a busy evening. And now I want potato salad :)

I enjoyed the new Sherlock too. I like Martin Freeman and he did well in this role. I'm looking forward to the next one.

The potato salad was awesome. (I use a yoghurt dressing with fresh dill, and it went down a treat with the new workmates.)

I'm glad to hear I wasn't the only one who liked Sherlock. I've always liked Martin Freeman, but wasn't sure about him taking on Watson. I was very much surprised how very much I liked his take on the character.

I had a similar experience with Jude Law in the Holmes movie. I've always appreciated him as an actor, though never loved him, but his Watson completely made the movie. The Sweetie thinks it should be re-titled Watson!, complete with the exclamation mark.
