WOOT
After speaking with Julian and finding out his and Immy's wedding is in fact a morning wedding (THANK YOU JEEBUS) followed by an afternoon reception - I have worked out that I could still get to the Supernatural Con - IN TIME for the Cocktail party, and just do the Sunday as VIP - or something.
This will cost me approximately $1220.00
not factoring in accom and transporting ones-self around Adelaide/getting to the airport and such, but even so, I think it'll end up costing me around the $1500-$1600 mark, which is less than I would've spent was i to do the platinum and be in sydney all weekend anywho. And the only thing I'll miss is the afternoon tea thinggy.
SO YAY for that. I feel much happier about it all now, was in a real funk over missing it for a while there.
SO! We made it to and from Sydney OK - the weekend was spent lazing in the hideous, HIDEOUS humidity, we were planning on eating our body weight in meat at the lowenbrau on Sunday but couldn't be bothered. I think Sydney put the heater on for me just to remind me furthermore how much I Haaaaaated it there - I love summer, but in Sydney? BLERGHx10000000. We got all the booth stock, and Rand dropped in some boxes from Carissa for us to lug also - and one of David Boreanaz's leather jackets - I'm assuming from Angel. GAH. (You think she'd notice if I stole it?) PRETTY.
Andrew messaged me on Saturday evening and asked if I wanted to grab a drink in the city. I said no because it was too far and too hard. Being around him is just way too emotionally conflicting for me, especially on such an occasion, I don't think I could handle it with a smile like I did last time.
So... we also went Bridesmaids dress shopping, and it was fuuun :D It was really good to spend a day with the girls. The first place we went to had a couple of GORGEOUS dresses that suited us both to a tee, so it's just a matter of Di making a decision on them now (easier said than done!) Then on Saturday night, Di decided she doesn't like the wedding dress she had chosen any more so went back on sunday to try another one she liked - I think the new one is a better choice from the photo of it I've seen, it's much more slimming and slinky and she looks preeeeetty in it :D
I have been eating a ridiculous amount of crap food and feel like shite from it - I'm really thinking I need to kick myself (and Andy) in the ass about this diet thing - I mean, he's diabetic, if he doesn't start looking after himself he's A)going to have some seriously bad side-effects/consequences coming his way, and B)going to end up making ME have diabetes with the amount of crap he buys for us both.
bah to it all, why can't dieting be easy?
My folks are in NZ, having a lovely time, and weirdly, they're having dinner with Andy's parents over there on the 1st - odd. I say odd because they've never met before, and when parents meet parents, aren't the kids supposed to be there to run interference? weird. very weird. but oh well, both of our parents are fairly laid back, and his folks are over here this week so hopefully I'll get to know them a little better and get to give my parents the heads up on what not to say :P
Got an email from Muhney last night. it made me sad because he seemed sad/over it all, it made me want to give him a hug and also, go shake some sense into Joss/Fox over not casting him in dollhouse. BAH to it all. A positive, amazing person like him deserves so much work, it's just not fair.
*Sigh* AAAAaaaaaaaannyway. I Best be off.
ciao :)
