OK It's 25 degrees here, so still good weather for shorts and t-shirts, and yet im sitting on my couch in trackies, tshirt and ugh boots!! I was sooo tired at work today, and im sure it mostly had to do with the continual rain that poured down all day. I was at work a little later than normal due to my first non IT course running Thurs & Fri - wish me luck! Most days I catch the bus home, but today I was sleepy and it was rainy so I jumped in a cab. 5 mins later I was home, in my trackies and Ughs. Life is good. (Well OK life may not be good, but I cant remember because all I can think about is how snug I'm feeling ;)
To suit this snuggly mood, i need some comfort food for dinner. I bought some sour cream on the weekend to go with the pumpkin soup (which was gorgeous by the way). I'm not a huge fan of sour cream, but for sour cream I think sweet chilli and sour cream with wedges. So for dinner tonight I'm having roast potato with sweet chilli and sour cream, and roasted pumpkin. Yummo. If only it would hurry up!
Dinner on Sunday night was great. My oven successfully handled the choc beer cake, the soup was brilliant, as was the salmon patties. The cleaning up was painful, my small kitchen is a pain to clean!
Other stuff happening - managed to get a free 10 day gym pass, and went to the gym monday and tuesday. Was meant to meet Mandy today for a class but thankfully she cancelled (or maybe it was mutual ;). Given up on netball, might try the gym instead. It will probably work out cheaper.
I have more to write, but my brain has slowed. Yoav's in town so had a fun night with him last night. Have a girlie night out on friday, and Amy's celebration on saturday (if she's better). Otherwise lots of work, before I finish next wednesday. (Off to europe on thursday). Sarah's meant to be coming to town, but haven't heard from her in a while - Sarah - where are you???

ACTOR Brad Pitt has declared he will not marry Angelina Jolie until restrictions on gay marriage are lifted.
So is this because Brad Pitt is a woman, or Angelina Jolie is a man? My vote is still for Mr Jolie ;)
Had a nice productive day yesterday - spent the morning cleaning the house - seems to have become my custom on saturdays. Met a guy from the Tokyo office for a late lunch (yummy affordable mexican and beer), found a great second hand book shop and then went in search of a potato masher - didn't quite manage that one. Hey Ms Ebby they keep the same sort of alphabetical order you do in the shop - a very loose one!
Last night I went on a Jaspas Junk trip with the teachers. It is slightly more expensive than a do your own junk, but it has unlimited food and drink for only AUD$90. Beer, wine and yummy cocktails. Oooh and the food - starters of chips and dips, felafal, chicken satay and some other stuff I cant remember. The main was a really yummy salad, potatos, eggplant moussaka, yummy steak with pepper sauce, (and marinated chicken and something else which I didnt have). Oooh and dessert was a cheesecake! Very good! The company was great as always and a very fun night - but I always end up piking around 1ish. I need to learn to sleep in, today i was awake again at 8 - far too early! Perhaps, an afternoon nap later??
I was reading a dodgy book this morning and the character was eating scones and jam - so now I feel like scones and jam. Don't think its going to happen but I am planning some cooking today. Mandy's coming over tonight for salmon patties and pumpkin soup (oh and possibly choc beer cake for dessert). Alrighty off to the supermarket!
