Monday. End of the weekend. Cooked all the veggies for dinner. Potato and sweet potato, tomato with buffalo mozarella I got for 80% off, brocollini and facon, cauliflower with paprika, and capsicum and zucchini. And a bit of lamb I dug out of the freezer.
Tuesday. We're into season 11 of The Simpsons. Then photo labelling and the first episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents (I'm sure we used to watch this a bit when we were young).
Wednesday. Finally got caught up with my photo labelling, into Egypt this week. More Alfred Hitchcock.
Thursday. OMFG why is every interaction I have with the government so damned painful?!?!? So it was announced on the news Thursday morning that 40-49 year olds are now eligible for Pfizer - win!! So I logged on to book an appointment, except you need to create a myDHR account. Sigh. Don't they have some sort of centralised system attached to Medicare for all this crap? So I went through the process of registering an account, except it died half way through with this error:
So I'm like.. did it go through or not?? (my tweet about it *still* hasn't been answered!!!) Fricken hopeless. So started all over again, and this time it went through. Except then you have to wait up to 24 hours for them to confirm your eligibility before you can book an appointment. Sigh. In the end it probably only took an hour or so for them to get back to me, so booked an appointment for Sunday afternoon.
My Aunty Rhonda sent me this work of art this week, made by an aquaintance of hers. It's a journal, but it's more like an adventure, with little pockets and fun little bits and pieces all through it. Not quite sure what I'll do with it, but it sure is pretty!!
Friday. Finished watching tv with the sweetie over dinner just after 6pm, so watched The Wolf of Wall Street.. which was very.. long.. I didn't realise it was based on a true story (what I get for not ever reading up on movies before I see them).
Saturday. Took *forever* to get to sleep - my feet were freezing. Woke up early though, tried to get back to sleep, ended up getting a bit more, slept til nearly 8am. Bit of a slow start, and in the end pretty much all I did was play with my USA 2000 photo gallery. The sweetie cooked dinner of chilli mince. Then we watched a few hours of Gettysburg.
Sunday. Took *forever* to get to sleep - this time I was too hot. I think I'm dying.
Made pancakes for lunch.
After cleaning the kitchen in the morning I just worked on my USA 2000 photo gallery. In fact I got it to a point where you can have a look if you like. I've still got some work to create the location index pages, and I need to setup a footer with contact deets and links back to my blog. But if I die now, at least one of my holiday photo galleries will be online. Saw my birds in the afternoon, then did a bunch of fish tank water changes. Then I went and got my first dose of Pfizer vaccine!!! I arrived about 17:15 for a 17:30 appointment. Gave them my deets then waited. And waited and waited and waited. They didn't call me up to go in until 17:50, and then I had to wait while the single nurse there attended to the other person that came in at the same time as me. It was 18:00 before I finally got my jab. While I was waiting to make sure I didn't keel over, another person that came in was being seen at 18:05 - for an 18:15 appointment!! No fair, how come I had to wait thirty five minutes, and he got in early??? Sigh.
Got Kingsley's on the way home for dinner. I'll probably wake up in the middle of the night hungry. CSS is evil. Or more precisely, how different browsers deal with it is infurating. More Alfred Hitchcock while I downloaded and processed phone photos and blogged.
Now for the fun part.. waiting to see what side effects I get from the vaccine.. :)

Just had a lovely time looking at all your American trip photos. Quite a few memories brought back. Plus seeing some things that I haven't seen when I have been in various cities. Great job you have done with them!
