yesterday at lil creatures jes and i both ordered the parsley, white wine and garlic mussels. they were so intensely garlicy, even for me. jess has an excuse for smelling because she has moved to margaret river where all the stinkin' hippies live. she was even wearing cut off green pants just for authenticity. might go down and say hey in a couple of weeks.
drank with everyone this weekend. michelle and andy and i hit china court friday night and had a week debriefing, followed by a saucier kind of debriefing at home. they have purchased tickets to melbs so the first leg of our holiday will be even more of a party. connie and i took michelle and andy to yum cha on mich's bday, and it was even more hilare than usual because neither of them can use chopsticks, and the restaurant was too asian to have forks. lol. the whole lunch was spent watching them try to stab things with one chopstick. i really want to repeat that in melbourne. lol. don't tell them.
saturday... i salivated all over woolworths. i feel so comforted by supermarkets. walking out with a loaded trolley feels so similar to that feeling after you walk out from church, totally absolved, totally prepared. you know the food is going to run out and that you will do bad things again, but it feels so great for that moment. i like buying meat. lol. isn't that disgusting? i think conrad thinks i'm insane. i have to inspect every last item that goes in the trolley.
saturday arvo watched three colours blue. i'm not sure i was in the right frame of mind, must watch it again when wasted.
saturday night, em and ryan's. we played truth or dare. connie was sexy. i prank called bp and then cameron's mum in a fit of revenge. not that i dislike either, but i felt compelled to even the score of nuisance phone calls from both those sources. unfortunately, cameron's mum was not home, but i called cameron and told him i just prank called his mum and that seemed to satisfy me. lol.
sunday... was supposed to be meeting parents for coffee, once again i am a golf orphan. i have a sneaking suspicion that even though they love me, i don't think they really like me. it's a feeling i've had for a while. i think i'm too independent and too oblique for them. it's disconcerting. one of those coming of age things that is always unsettling until you become resigned to it. so i cleaned out my cupboards in an effort to be more prepared for future blows. i don't know why it made me feel better, but it did.
sunday arvo was posse get together. liz brought home a 19 year old and mot was so stoned i could hardly get a word out of him. he was cute though.
corgan was having a hair crisis.
i was wearing a blue skirt.
kristina and cadby came round for dins sunday night. we are the flintstones. we always end up talking about shit for some reason. i dig them, together and separately. they're so... easy. everyone needs friends like that. that you can be hungover with and look like shit and be uncool and still laugh.
talking of that, hooray for elena. i can't wait to see her lick her lips. can we have an icecream?
