Weekend in review

Posted on May 31, 2005 By admin 3 Comments on Weekend in review

Today, I am happy.

That, in itself, means little, to be honest, but it's the culmination of a lot of worries. I love my job, I love my Katy, I love my apartment. Touch wood, things will continue on this merry way *touches wood*.


I had a nice weekend. Lots of yummy spicy food, waaaay too much pig, lots of money spent.

I bought a VCR (which raised my blood pressure – SCART leads are evil, so are NTL boxes) and a little HI-FI for the bedroom. Yesterday, Katy and I went to The Pier and other swanky shops on Fitzroy street for stuff to add a bit of colour to the apartment. Got some nice cushions for the couch and the rocking chair. I seriously need to go back to the open-air market in the city center because I'm drooling over the batik fabric throws. I'm seriously going to spend some money there next pay. It has beautiful stuff, but as Katy says, we need to unpack and place all the schwag we have in boxes before we get more.

I'll be posting pictures of the apartment as soon as things get settled.

    granted it took 90 mins…. but you now have a sparkly clean oven in your apartemnt. granted the rest of the kitchen looks as though a grease and water spirit have been waltzing thru, but i feel that is not the point. the oven is clean.

    however.. this does mean i will not be allowing any cooking to take place for the next few days…

    I'll buy a 45-gallon metal drum and make a BBQ pit in the front yard. I'm sure the neighbours will approve.

Quote of the day

"Taxation, gentlemen, is very much like dairy farming. The task is to extract the maximum amount of milk with the minimum of moo. And I am afraid to say that these days all I get is moo."
--(Terry Pratchett, Jingo)
