Monday. 13th. Blogged. Like All Day. And then still nowhere near catching up. In the evening I watched Mary Poppins, which I hadn't seen in a very very long time. That was quite a bit of fun.
Tuesday. Plumbers came and put a sealant on top of the render.
The tower looked pretty at sunset.
In the evening went with the hills to Surprising Science at the Shine Dome. I've never actually even been inside that building!!
The talks were by Dr Indrani Mukherjee, who was looking at the historical availability of trace elements and their correlation with the evolution of eukaryotic cells; and Dr Zoë Doubleday, who was establishing chemical fingerprints in marine animal bones to track where they come from (it has a bit to do with temperature so doesn't work in mammals or tuna), and finding there was a fairly good correlation of latitude in southern hemisphere, but not so good for northern hemisphere.
Then we all went for dinner at Little Steamer.
Honey Golden Potato ($9.50) - a bit like salt and vinegar chips, only sweeter and not as sour
Master Cut Baby Eggplant ($12.80) - this was really good
Steamed Prawn Dumpling ($13.80 - got 6 not 4 pieces - bonus!)
Duck Fried Noodles ($14.80)
Wednesday. Slept like crap (awake for hours in middle of night). Had a cleaning day which was nice. Watched Saving Mr Banks while trying to get ready to go to Sydney and going over to Annie's for birthday cake. I must have paused the movie about fifty times which really isn't the way to watch a movie but I really had no choice if I was going to see it before I left. The cake was pretty epic :)
Thursday. Had a full on melt down because the recycling truck came and our bin wasn't out. They changed our day, but in my mind bin night is Tuesday night, so when they said Thursday I thought it meant Thursday night. Sigh. Then I went to Sydney.
The plumbers laid new drain pipes on Friday, but hid them all so I couldn't get a good photo. Maybe tomorrow I'll get something.
Saturday. Got home from Sydney completely exhausted. Two nights in a row of midnight bed times and 6:30 wakeups.
Had chicken kiev for dinner, watched Simpsons/Crown and went to bed at 8pm.
Sunday. Today. Had nearly ten hours sleep which was awesome. Total catchup day - house/washing/computer/fish stuff all day, and no time for Lego. Immy came over for a couple of hours in the afternoon. OMFG I could never be a teenager again, it's just so much DRAMA. But then it was super late and I still had blogging to do.. hmmmm! The sweetie is cooking dinner while I try and catch up on photo/blogging stuff.
