How was your Sunday?

Woke up to the news that the kettle was dead…. so went down to the local shops, but no luck in woolies, The Reject Shop, Aldi or Homeart. There were some in Target, but they started at $60. Uh, no thanks!

Headed into the Canberra Centre around lunch time, and success at Big W – Kettle for $8, radiant heater (which Rish is pretty much sitting on now!) for $18. Score! And a vanilla air freshener for the car for $2.

Made a mess of the rice paper rolls I got from Sushi World for lunch. I don’t think they were packed tight enough. Their fault, right not mine? :p

Hit the ground running

So I’ve been back in Australia for all of 60 hours, have already completed 2 full days of work, updated wordpress, uploaded a bunch of photos to flickr, started a job application because they advertised while I was away – the applications end next week, so I’ve time, and started working on a presentation for Saturday. No, no time to tiredness or jetlag. Not for me.

*breathes*

You will get “Europe” blog posts in time. In the meantime, photos are gradually heading to this Flickr set, and here is a freaky citrus fruit from Vienna to tide you over ;)

Little Flurries

It’s probably not weird, to get flurries of inspiration, maybe to tidy something, to do some uni work, dance and sing, take photos, works on the blog, save for something, make new goals, move towards them.

Sometimes it goes somewhere. Some days it lasts all of 3 minutes :p

Around

• Bit of a pin cushion. Blood tests. Let’s see what’s wrong. Is it okay to eat lots of things that might be bad for you in case you’re told to never eat them again?
• Uni. Assignements. eeee
• Porno sheep getting mentioned on national radio. I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star, I wanna have groupies, to quote the Pussycat Dolls
• Sleep would be nice
• Wine’s nice. But best not used as a sedative
• Thankyou for all you awesome JESUS LOVERS. Keep commenting to win a purple glitter jesus moneybox. You rule!

2 Weeks

I’ve been back in the country nearly two weeks and in that time I think I’ve managed to clock up quite a lot.

Quite a lot of excersize, a lot of socialising, a lot of drinking, a lot of dancing, a lot of flirting.

A lot of fun.

No, Rish won’t “ruin” this by coming back. It’s been a great opportunity for me to have a go with the whole social thing without having him to fall back on, to hide behind, which is so easy to do. Taking a few chances on my own charm and wit and social skills, and coming out on top.

I’m off to Newcastle for the weekend – Rish will fly in Sunday, I’m collecting his luggage and bringing it back so he can ride his motorbike back down in the cold… But I’ll get a few hours up there to latch myself onto him and not let go.

*smiles*

Overtired

Sitting alone in an internet cafe in Athens, I slept terribly last night… I overheat very quickly, and as it’s always over 20 degrees at night here, it’s bound to happen. Especially when you are sharing a room with others who get cold before you’ve even gotten down to a comfortable temperature.

Reading emails that make me miss the people I love. Feeling a little isolated, needing to regain that feeling of enjoying the solitude I have, even when walking through a big busy city.

I’m overtired, which is the leading cause. Normally I can deal better with emails that tug at my heart.

Rish will be here in less that 48 hours, and I’ll get to be wrapped up in his arms and hugged to sleep.

Then I’ll sleep well.

Who likes hospitals?

*puts her beanie on and wraps the blanket tighter*

God, I look sexy tonight. If only I had my ugg boots on. Maybe after my shower?

(I also need to tiday this house – maybe after my shower? maybe in the morning?)

*yawns* have to have the heater on tonight… have the bed to myself :(

Pinker than Pink

About to go to bed after a very hot shower :) May have used all the hot water, but it’s near zero degrees here, so it was worth it :)

Have left Rish at a pub crawl… I’m completely not up to that sort of punishement just yet :) maybe next weekend. I wish I was there, but it’s not a good idea. Going to leave my phone on beside the bed for the “phonnnaaaaaaa! I lvoe you so much come and get me I love you! I’m so drunk I love you!” call or text that will hit some point through the evening :)

I don’t know where I’m heading with this.

To bed I think. zzzzzz my throat still hurts
