Hey, I had half of this written before and LJ saved a draft for me. THANKS WEBSITE!
As in my last post, I have the flu. But it's not the same flu; it's a fresh relapse. A subtler, perhaps more mucousy flu. Just great! And I got back from the eye doctor and after much of the eye drops, pupil gouging and tedious tests, he told me my eyes have not gotten worse in the past six months, so no glaucoma for me yet. Wooo! Man do I hate stuff going in my eyes though. I don't think I could ever handle contacts or laser eye surgery.
Well, I'm back in Wagga this week, which has been a little odd. It's been a good eight weeks since I last visited. Things seem to slow down here. Particularly the internet, ugh. But it's strange, I love the friends I have here and all, but it used to feel like it was just as much my home as Canberra is. Now it's like it's bumped down to the next best thing. It's still my home away from home, but Canberra is where I'd rather be. They need to just airlift Wagga and dump it as an outer Canberra suburb so that I can see my friends more often! But I don't really want to spend huge amounts of time here over the summer. Hopefully work will give me a few summer shifts and I can get summer student accomodation and otherwise...go on cross-country mystery tours!
Speaking of which, got my full license yesterday, so I can now drink a beer and drive at 110 kilometres per hour without going to jail. More exclamations!!
[This particular parenthetical statement doesn't have much of a point, it's just a tacked-on way of asking myself "how satisfying is this?"]
(I guess it was kind of satisfying, if slightly tricky, as far as typing goes.)
Hmm, I can see myself getting more into this LJ entry habit. It might be a good way to warm myself up for some more focussed writing of greater substance. Or another form of procrastination. But I think I'd rather the former, so that's what I'm gonna do now.
