i kind of feel like i was the only person today who didn't whinge about the weather. i live in a sub-tropical climate, it's november...you do the math!
i did however LOVE the storm that drove through earlier. despite the devestation i know it has caused (my parent's area was affected by nasty weather, and thankfully they don't have much more damage than a broken windscreen and a fallen tree - that fell into the neighbours yard and not onto any houses), i enjoyed its ferocity. watching it come over and discussing the various shades of green the clouds turned on its travels over and the oooooh-ing and aaaaaaaah-ing at the impressive lightning displays, while sipping on fancy red wine and eating posh foodstuffs from antipasto, to pesto, to a blue vein red leicester(sp?) and homemade red pepper dip, was just amazing. i don't get to do that too often!
last night was
haruko_fixation and her soon to be hubby's "stag and doe" party. it was lots of fun. there was heaps of retro tuneage, pool, alcohol and plenty of cuddles and random awesomeness. a very good night indeedy, even if it was all over by midnight (not my call). there was some mild discussion on the title of the new bond film "quantum of solace" and the spreading of cooties. it was a great night!
right now i'm just enjoying this glass of homebrew beer-verage and listening to the rain pitter-pattering on my roof. the main advantage of having a tin roof is the awesome sound of the rain falling on it; a combination of awesome, romance and relaxation all in one. the kind of thing you can really only get in queensland i think.
til next....
