Monday 9 November 2009, Part 1

Isn't it funny how the post-drunken wrap-up is always so much more magnified in your own head than how things appeared to everyone else? Everyone is telling me I was fine on Saturday night and didn't make an absolute twat of myself after all! I'm quite pleased - I had started a pattern of thought that I just could not shake yesterday about how important Vision is to me and how awful it will be when I can't train there any more. I truly am a crazy lady.

Yesterday Grant, Steve and I went to see Astroboy. I don't recommend it if you are more than a minute older than 7. We all felt it was necessary for us to waste the 90 minutes since we'd all loved Astroboy as kids, and it was a good distraction for me in my lamenting state! They gave me such a hard time about refusing to see Saw VI though. I don't do scary films so it would've been a massive waste of money for me - I would have sat with my hands over my eyes for the entire thing. I did love that guy in it though - he was in Picket Fences and I loved that show. I totally thought I was going to marry him when I was a kid.

Hopefully I'll hear back from one or both of the real estates that I have applications in with today. I'm still dying to move next weekend - my bedroom is bursting with all the bits & pieces (mainly fine china) I've been buying and I just can't wait to have my own space again. I think the first thing I will do is set up my stereo and play music so loud that I can't actually do anything else but listen. I'm a bit concerned about my ability to build all my furniture solo. I've picked everything out (mainly the same stuff I had in Bondi!) from Ikea and once I've got somewhere to go I'm going to buy it all. The main thing I am worried about is the bed - it's pretty chunky. I have been working out though, maybe I'll surprise myself. Ha ha!

Later today I have to start choosing my subjects for uni for next year. Can't wait! That reminds me actually - I'll need to get some study furniture sorted out too before uni starts.

Anyway, back to the daily grind. I've had two temps call in sick this morning. Fun & games. Shaping up to be a fab day though - I've just had 2 bottles of my favourite wine in the whole world delivered to my desk (thanks Sally & Tim xx), and the husband of one of my temps just delivered me a new hairdryer to thank me for finding her work!! I love getting gifts for just doing my job. :o)
