Monday I went shoe shopping for Kit's wedding. Needed to get the shoes before I ordered the dress to get the right heights. Found a nice pair of silver shoes but they've got a bit of a heel which would hurt my feet so Kit said probably not best to use those. I might keep them anyway as I can wear them for other things. Got up to 4000 out of 10500 photos labelled from the last trip. Also found out that Foursquare killed their RSS feed for my checkins back in March. How the heck am I meant to get an offline backup of my history now?!? Stu said I should try IFTTT to get it. So I did. About half a dozen clicks later I had IFTTT downloading each checkin to a Google docs spreadsheet. So disturbingly easy and I didn't touch the keyboard in the whole process.
Tuesday I had another go at shoe shopping after Kit said she'd be happy if we all wore nice thongs. I sent her pics of a few and saw one she liked so I bought a pair. Only $15 w00t. Stu was sick Tuesday and we might have had Kingsley's for dinner. Whoops. Made up a tomato sauce with a big bunch of Kit's tomatoes I defrosted on the weekend.
Thursday I went back to the shoe store and bought another two pairs of the thongs so all three bridesmaids will have the same shoes.
Friday a bunch of us went to Rashays for their $5 lunch special (just for the month of May). Great value that's for sure!
But they are seriously trolling people with their serviettes!
In the evening we started on MacGyver season 2.
Kit had picked up keys during the day as she was up for Katie's sister's funeral (kid was only 12 :( ). She got home after 1am. We hadn't slept. Yay. I was just uncomfortable and restless. Torture. When Kit got home Stu poured us a small nightcap and we chatted to Kit for a while and helped her finish her Big Mac. Even that didn't help much, and it was after 3am before I got to sleep :( Woke up at 5am with a sore spine so struggled to get back to sleep. So that was a fun night. Not.
Saturday had a little bit of a sleep in. Kit spent much of the day sleeping and doing uni work (pyjama day for the win!). I did houseworky stuff and jigsaw. In the evening I cooked a lasagna with the tomato sauce I made during the week and we watched a Netflix (Stan?) show on street food, this one on Singapore, and The Imitation Game.
This morning Kit and I had a long chat about wedding planning. I even took notes haha. Stu and I went out to for lunch and food shopping, and Kit went off to her friend Sophie's wedding.
She came back for a couple of hours between the ceremony and the reception so we mostly just chatted. And there may have been cheese. Other than that I was sorting photos - filing photos into more logical directories. Some work directories have 1000 or 1500 photos in them that need to be filed more logically. And then I need to crowdsource labelling them. Cooked a lamb roast for dinner and watched Death in Paradise.
So a fairly quiet weekend which was nice. Achieved some stuff, although maybe not as much as I'd have liked, but it was generally quite relaxing.
