OMFG! Not backdating!! ;)
Monday. Slept ok. Ok day I guess. In the evening I got up to labelling the photo of sad bean! This was a baked bean Stu had at breakfast one morning on our UK 2010 holiday. It had a crease and a couple of specks of pepper at just the right spots to make the bean look like it had a sad face. Stu couldn't bear to eat sad bean, and I don't like baked beans, so that poor little bean didn't get eaten, which was even sadder! I might have had a little sad ten years later just labelling the photo I took of it :(:(
Up to episode 7 of Against the Wind.
Tuesday. Hurty woke me up and kept me awake for an hour and a half. But otherwise slept ok.
<work rant snipped>
But look! Itty bitty Cape Weed flower!
Leftovers for dinner, UK labelling and episode 8 of Against the Wind.
Wednesday. All the stoopid. I don't even remember what now. I ranted to Stu over a drink at Beirut Bunker Bar and pushed it from my memory.
Stopped in at the markets on the way home to go to the chemist, and the sweetie even cooked dinner! :)
I thought this looked pretty cool - looks a bit like the Matterhorn!
Thursday. Filled with rage at someone watching Bathurst near me at work without a headset - not even at their desk, but in our area because their own desk is outside the exec offices and that would look bad. And three or four conversations going on around me meant for NOISE and I seriously nearly lost it. Fortunately I have the bestest boss ever and he went and muted Bathurst for me so I didn't go postal. Watched the second episode of the French sun documentary.
Neil and I saw these at lunch on Thursday. Not a huge amount of information on the Beam website, you need to download the app to find out useful stuff, you know, like where you can ride them. 45c/minute introductory rate to ride one. Wonder how well they'll last. I wouldn't mind taking one for a trip around the lake :)
Friday. Deleting all the things! Did a massive cleanup of routes in the morning, and cleared out a big decommissioned app in the afternoon. In between I had lunch at Herbert's with Tony and the Chrises. Big lunch, so dinner was a small serving of popcorn (needed some fibre to counteract all the meat I had at lunch). Watched Arrietty in the evening, which we last (first) saw at the movies in 2012. The movie is based on the "The Borrowers" books which really annoys me as a title because they're not borrowing, they're *stealing*. Just sayin!
Saturday. Slept well. A day of All The Things. We did do a quick Bunnings run and food shop. I'd already voted during the week so didn't get a democracy sausage (I think a lot of places aren't doing them anyway), but Bunnings has started up their sausage sizzles again, but they load the sauces for you. So not quite as pretty as a photo as my actual democracy sausage featured on Atlas (Gastro) Obscura :)
Stu cooked dinner which was lovely of him - grilled eggplant with a sauce of miso, mirin, and sake. Quite yummy.
In the evening we watched the first episode of season 3 of Discovery. I enjoyed the first season, but the second season just got way too convoluted and hard to follow. The first episode of this season was fine, hopefully this season won't be as complicated as the last. Up to episode 9 of Against the Wind.
Sunday. Today. For once I'm not backdating.. craziness I know! Woke up at 3:45 to go to the loo but didn't get back to sleep for hours. At 4:51 I got up to have some cheese because I was hungry. Apparently just a little bit of eggplant and rice isn't enough to keep me full all night. I did eventually get a bit more sleep, including have a dream that I was staying at Dooce's house, and it was *massive* and Stu for some reason was sleeping in some other building on the *campus*, and I was talking to Leta about what life was like being the daughter of such a famous blogger. So a pretty slow start. Did a few things on the todo list. I was going to do some more Lego part picking of Vic's sets, but by the time I'd gotten the files organised and found the sets and gone through them for what they had already it was after lunch. Then we went and visited Annie/Stu/Immy, and then came home and did cooking and photo processing and blogging and suddenly it's nearly dinner time. Hrmmmmm.
