Whimper. Coming down with cold again. Yet again. I'd planned to do some gardening today, but that may have to wait for next weekend I think as will exert too much energy. Will stay in and do some scrapbooking.
Anyway, an update. As of last weekend stupid side effects have more or less gone away. Yay! I can live again. However the laziness is still around so I'm trying to make sure I do the things I want to do.
I had a chat with someone who was commenting on something I mentioned in my LJ a few weeks ago, and I really couldn't for the life of me remember the things he mentined I was talking about. Crappy memory loss. Fortunately was restored when I read the entry. In the meantime I think I went to MonUCS camp and managed to rehearse for some of it, and spend the rest wishing I was on the couch at home doing my knitting.
I can't remember what I did last weekend. I think it involved.... something... I'm sure it did. Maybe it didn't. Who knows. I know I did a lot of gardening at one point. I just can't remember when. My front yard is looking very pretty though. I want to plant my bulbs, and clean out the mess that is the back yard at some point. But not this weekend.
Oh yes, that's right, I went to dinner with people and went for a lovely walk around Princes Park and the cemetary. On Wednesday I went to my sister's play at the Arts Centre with Granny and shadowlands. I'll have to tease her greatly about wanky Club VCA bullshit when I see her next:)
Had MonUCS concert Friday night which went reasonably well. I found it hard to get excited about as it wasn't the best performance we've done, but it was okay. Then had the PCP at my place which went well, and judging by other's comments everyone seemed to have fun. I don't think I've crammed that many people into my place before, and was worried about how it would work out, but we all managed it somehow. There were lovely scenes of introducing the freshers to more pub songs and then singing the MUFS songs at the tops of our voices. Much fun was had.
Yesterday ironic_shell shadowlands and Tess picked me up to get pumpkins from the market and then head to yum cha. After having gone to Shark Fin enough times I learnt that you eat minimal amounts of spring rolls (since that's the only tasty veggie option there) and stuff up on the desserts. Yummy almond jelly... mmmm...
Then Tess and I got stuck into turning the pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns (strange weirdo pagan southern hemisphere reversal of seasons and all) and ended up covered in pumpkin and had two very funky designs at the end of it, plus some very yummy baked pumpkin seeds, and plenty of pumpkin pulp for me to make soup with tonight. Then we got stuck into Pictionary, and discovered that while Team Pennie Draw and Tess Guess is terrible, Team Tess Draw and Pennie Guess is pretty decent. It was one of those lovely autumn activity type days.
