convalescing

My Darlings,
First of all I want to say how sorry I am that I haven't posted for nearly a month. Way to long for my fabulous fans to get their Fifi fix!

The thing is, I have not been having such a fabulous time. Let me explain. At the end of last month I was trotting down the Kings Road, having just left Bar JuJu and their delicious carrot cocktails ( which may go some way to explain what happened next ). I was running to catch a cab and completely forgot I was wearing totally inappropriate footwear for athletic pursuits - 7 inch platform heels. I felt my ankle wobble and everything went into slow motion as I flew ungracefully towards the pavement. I can remember having time to think 'oh dear this isn't good' but it seems I didn't have time to put my paws out for protection. To cut a long story short not only did I break my ankle I totally smashed up my nose. The cab driver who saw it happen was so sweet to me, taking Ruby and I straight to the emergency room and refusing payment. Although, looking back maybe he was just glad to get us out of his taxi. I spent the entire journey rambling on about this and that - I must have been in shock. I even tried to air kiss him as he helped me out of the cab!

My ankle was the least of my worries though. My nose was so badly injured I had to have surgery. I'm now feeling pretty sore and very sorry for myself. I still have my book to write too and the deadline is looming, so Ruby's been round to help me get all the things I need to work from my sick bed. She is such a good friend to me I am going to have to think of a way to thank her properly. I'm not sure when the bandages can come off but I'm really looking forward to it. I slipped a little request to the surgeon before I went in. Secretly I've always wished for a slightly slimmer snout!

I hope you're all having more luck than me
