Alright alright.. I think last night's insanity has decided to pass...
I don't have the urge to do anything crazy regarding flying to Canada right now anymore. I mean, it's always there but the impulsiveness has gone - until next time anyway.
I spent all of this morning trying to finish off my Xmas shopping. Worked the credit card. I didn't even mentally add up how much I'd spent... I didn't care - or want to know... unfortunately the first and last shop I went into I seemed to purchase things for myself, for no reason. I now have two new pairs of Havianas and a new Roxy tan handbag. Also, 4 new nailpolishes and a pair of undies. haha...
I can't shop for other people without indulging myself as well. Pathetic!! I have just as many "presents for myself" than I do for other people.
So after the shopping I raced home, xmas wrapped as many as possible, then packed them into a large gift bag that I can take onto the plane next week... Then I left home again to just make it in time for my appointment at the hairdressers. I haven't been since September!! My hair was sooo long. It was a good cut last time as it grew out really nicely over the 3 months, but it was just annoying me now. It had gone just past the back of my neck/shoulders! I know.. that's long for me..
Interestingly, I actually liked having the extra length now. I found it more feminine, so I've decided to keep it a little longer than I'd normally have it and see how I go.
My plans for New Years Eve also fell through today. Jason had invited me up to Bright for NYE and in text conversations back and forth today I was just confirming everything... I've never been to Bright but I've always heard it's pretty awesome up there. It's pretty close to Mt Hotham, which I know from the ski seasons. Anyway I was telling him at the moment I was working on Jan 1 but I could easily swap & get it off to spend Dec 31 & Jan 1st up there. I didn't want to sound like I assumed I was already going so I said to him, just to make sure, to let me know if I'm invited and I'll make the plans to come up. Then suddenly it's "ohh no, I forgot... Mum's coming up for Dec 31st!" and he apparently totally forgot when he invited me the other week. Hmm. Interesting... really? Who does that? So, anyway I replied saying something like oh, i understand, and i'll talk to you later anyway. I was pretty disappointed but I'm not going to call him out for lying because it could be true... maybe.
Anyway - so now I'm stuck AT HOME BY MYSELF for new years eve this year. Therefore I've put myself back on the afternoon shift for Jan 1st so I can grab the public holiday rates at work, but I'd still like to be with someone/anyone on New Years Eve. Boo-urns.
What're you all doing? Can I come??
