hot action

The last weekend of November has come and gone. I tried not to make a big deal of it. Anyone who's known me for a while has been hearing me go on about this for years.

Just a refresher: traditionally, the last weekend of November is when the girls of Halifax go out and get boyfriends. The first two weeks of December tend to represent the sexual low point of my year: "The women are too preoccupied with new boyfriends, exams, xmas preparations and clinical depression."

I'm not too worried about it this year, though. We had an unusually mild November and it doesn't feel as though the December nesting instinct has kicked in with quite the same intensity.

If you do have any friends who have contracted a new boyfriend this past weekend, feel free to make fun of them. It's just so un-hot-action.
