Right... how do you go about enjoying pink?
In my case at least the first thing I did when I arrived at work was change my desktop to the aforementioned colour, and sat back, just taking it all in. I wasn't entirely sure that it was enjoyable at this point, to be honest. It was, well, just pink.
Something else was needed. At lunch time I ran to the shops as fast as my little legs would carry me, straight to Burtons, the menswear* shop. The shop was a fine example of a young male persons ideal store, with plenty of shirts, shoes, trousers, pants, socks and a couple of ties stuffed into the corner somewhere toward the back. Fortunately for me, they were stocking a rather fetching pink number, and I purchased one for immediate usage. Once outside, I replaced my rather dull grey tie for the much more vibrant pink one, preparing my answers for the inevitable "that's not the tie you came in with" comments.
Suddenly I felt a little more cheerful than I had previously - perhaps this pink thing does work afterall.
Being Ween's birthday tomorrow, I decided to share the joy of pink with her. The next shop down the street being Clinton Cards, I entered and hunted out the pinkest birthday card I could find. Sadly, it was titled "to the greatest nan ever" so I had to make do with second best, but even that was pretty pink.
I'm a lazy arse, and so I forewent purchasing pink wrapping paper for her presents, and just got a pink sparkly bag instead. The day isn't quite over yet, but I must say I am rather enjoying this pink lark. It's kinda fun.
Now... onto the important dice matters of the day. Since you've all been bleedin' useless and failed to come up with any suggestions whatsoever, I'll have to make one up meself. I'm expecting some stirling ideas for tomorrow from you lot to make up for this. Seeing as I've got a stinker of a migraine, I'm going to be even more lazy than usual, and just copy the one I did yesterday, since that was so much fun.
*rolls dice*
A 3! Currently the third favourite thing is The Picture of Dorian Gray which I've previously completed. Sadly, I didn't stipulate this in my challenge doctrine, so I guess I'll have to enjoy it all over again. I'll try and prevent this outcome again in the future.
Oh, and nobody noticed the change of tie. Useless, the lot of them.
The Dice Man will return on Monday
* And we do, especially if you kick us right.

How about "The Sound of Music" for tomorrow?
I really like the suggestion for shaking hands. I'm not sure I understand the sound of Music, though Sarah - would I just have to roll a song to sing?
