Uneventful Everyday Events
Well today is the first of December which means hooooorah get to put my christmas decorations up!
Been looking forward to this all year, have put alot of thought into my christmas get up this year and it is going to be something unique and funky and probably never done before. Basically I am doing a "Nightmare before Christmas" themed christmas!
It all started last year when I bought a black christmas tree on sale at Big W. Ive always been nuts on Tim Burton and when I ended up getting a whole bunch of NBC merch for chrissy it suddenly twigged on me to do this as a whole theme.
So I have the black tree, black and silver (very basic) ornaments and got some skull shaped lights for the tree. Mum found marked down some cobweb curtains with plastic spiders which I think I will hang in the window behind the tree and also a skull candle which I might put somewhere in the room near it. I would like to try and get down to Lombards to see if they still have any halloween stuff as I think some bright orange pumpkin lanterns is what is missing. I also next year want to buy some cheapo barbies, behead them and hang the heads from the tree for added gore effect!
It's weird, different and probably a tad creepy but thats just me!
Yesterday was an uneventful day. My new position at work was discussed more. At this stage we are still working out where Patricia and I will be moved to as we need to be together and her office is way too small for us both. Mark is yet to work out my exact title, hours and new pay as I will be only focusing on our woolworths contract at this stage and no other customer jobs.
Bren was buggered once again after work. He managed to get an alternator for his car but nearly set the bloody engine on fire trying to put it in. I square asked him when he picked up the alternator "and do you know how to put it in?"
"Yeah pretty sure I can" he replies to which I stressed that 2 years ago he didn't even know the difference between a Holden and a Ford and now suddenly he is doing all his own repairs.
I don't want to be a bitch here but the term "I told you so" comes to mind slightly.....
After that he had a little drink with me, ate some dinner, watched some tv and went to bed with the cat by 10:30pm. I tried to stay up (in an effort to cure my insomnia I don't have a bedtime anymore but merely go to bed when I am tired) however found myself barely able to keep my eyes open at 11pm (even without a cone of Damiana!)
This morning Brendon nearly slept in. We both woke up at quarter to 7 but he chose to lay around in bed stretching even with my constant reminders that he needed to get up. It got till 7 when I pointed out he had 15 minutes to get ready for work at which point he flew out of bed cursing. Once again that same term comes to mind......
We did our usual breakfast run into McDonalds, which btw I am getting sick of. The problem with me carpooling him when he is on an 8am start is that unless I get up at 6:30am (which I am NOT prepared to do) I cannot make and eat a wholesome breakfast at home and am forced to get something junky on the way and eat while I drive.
Have not been to the gym in over a month and am starting to look abit thicker in my middle again. I know it won't take me long to get lean again, I just need to get back into a routine which includes my regular workouts again. Was hoping Bren and I could workout together after work at his gym but he really does not seem that keen so I might be on my own with this one.
Ok so that is it. See you tomorrow my fellow homosapians!
