wakey wakey

i've just had an email from a company that manufactures a 'take anywhere shower holder-upper'. whatever that may be!
it reminded me of a brainwave i had in bed on saturday morning.
now, i love my bedroom. it's a pared-down vision of manly interior loveliness. white floorboards (which i've wanted since i was 12 and got my first LP by The Tourists, which featured and all white room with stripped boards), a masculine looking bed (stripy bedding always), minimal clutter and gorgeous built in wardrobes (of course they are bespoke!).
but my white roller blind is terribly ineffective.
i have to have a blind down at all times as i am at street level and don't relish the prospect of being looked at by the local urchins/oiks/dogs on string but don't want black out blinds as the filtered light effect is quite nice, and i don't want to feel like i live in a bunker.
that 'flitered' light effect can be a little grating, however, at 6am on a saturday morning when i'd really like an extra hour sleep. but of course i can't, as once i wake up and it's light, i'm awake.
so, saturday morning i'm laying in bed cursing the fact that it's bright and i'm awake and if i had one of those horrid eye masks i'd probably put it on even though they are really uncomfortable, when my brainwave struck.
BLACK OUT EYESHADOW
i'm applying to Dragon's Den as you read this!

I would SO invest in that. And I'll help with your presentation if you like. We can pitch it alongside my gym tape.
