I should not be called Grace...

One thing I have never been and will never be is graceful. This wont come as a surprise to most of you - but was hammered into to me on Friday, at a work team building day. The morning involved rock climbing, jumping over streams, walking on wet rocks and climbing up a ladder on a waterfall. I spent the whole time falling down, am covered with cuts and bruises (and achs)and was helped by the boys. I am so unco. I have absolutely no balance, and I suck at all things involving activity. So yes it was kinda traumatic. It would have been less so if it wasn't a work do. I may have even slightly enjoyed a day of activity and making a fool out of myself if it was with my friends. But unfortunatly it wasnt :(

Yes it was nice of them to invite me, and better than work, but I am now in a world of pain. (and humilated). I have only been at work 2 days so far, but I have a full busy week next week!

Mandy and I spent yesterday (saturday) watching dvds and eating bagels - very nice! Last night I went to a gorgeous restaurant for a friends birthday. For only $300 (AUD$50) we had loads of very yummy food and byo wine. Check out what I ate -
* Bread & Pate
* Goats cheese & Tomato Tart
* Tomato & Orange soup (wierd)
* Duck breast with pear
* Eggplant & tomato gratin (yummo)
* Warm Chocolate cake
* Cappucino

All in all very nice - and home by midnight (no one was out for a big one). Would be great for a dinner party with my load and rowdy friends, and a bottle of wine each ;)

Its nice having a roomie, came home for a chat with Mandy and then I ended up watching the rest of Veronica Mars season 1. I wasn't tired and I just kept watching. So I ended up watching the remaining 5 hours and got to bed at 5am. Yay for sundays.
