Continued Exhaustion
Where'd I get up to?
Thursday night we had a whiskey tasting night. Nothing really stood out for me. Mostly because Neil didn't get any peaty whiskeys heh. The four Scottish ones were much the same (one was slightly rougher than the others). The Nikka was probably my favourite, just because of the hint of smoke. Early night and slept reasonably well.
Friday I got a bunch of cleanup work done, then left early and headed with the sweetie down to the coast. Stopped in Batemans Bay for dinner at KFC (bad move - they're even more inefficient than Belconnen and we took fifteen minutes to get our food!). Chilled out at the house, and I started a jigsaw.
Saturday I finished the first jigsaw and moved onto a second. Went to Myrtle Beach and even had a swim (well a wade really, I hadn't taken my glasses off and didn't want to lose them). It was cold, but not freezing. Couple of weirdos though - one meerkat and his wandering mate. Yeup. Saturday night we got pizzas from Steveo's. We got three, but really only needed one. Two tops - having some for breakfast we *still* brought home a full pizza! Then watched Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to see if it was as bad as we remembered. It was. And then some.
Today I finished the second jigsaw and decided to squeeze in a third while the sweetie did reading for uni. Then cleaned up and came home.
Almost hit two kangaroos - one on the way down on Friday night, and one on the way out to Myrtle Beach. The second one was panicking and actually slipped over on the road in front of us. We'd slowed right down though so it was all fine. The first one just bounced gently across the road in front of us but didn't do anything stoopid.
Tried to doze on the way home but didn't succeed.
I'm still sick with this damned cold. Stuffed up nose so haven't been able to breathe in days. I didn't feel like doing *anything* when I got home. So *blip* there goes another weekend with nothing achieved at home :( (I did manage to look at and geotag day 22 of the holiday though, so I guess that's *something*).
