At the State Library I can now put funds on my copy card, by EFTPOS!!!!
We went to see the Illuminations today. I really want to get the mp3 ear thinggies with all the info on them. They were all out on loan so I decided to show Sam the rest of the Library (it was his first time beyond the front lawn) and come back in half an hour. We had a lovely wander around, then Sam thought he'd see if they had a book he needed for his next assignment. They didn't, but they had other books that were on point, which 'we' leafed through. Then photocopied. Not leaving enough time to have a good look at the exhibition. Le Sigh. But we had a quick look through. I am now resigned to the fact I will have to go on my own and have a 'proper' look. I am a little disappointed that we 'missed out' on the Illuminations, but I am very pleased he found some useful materials, and I know for certain that finding those articles today will make my life easier over the coming weeks as he crafts his next essay. And I did get to read 2 very good articles in the current edition of US Vogue - an article on Sarah Jessica Parker and the SATC Movie, and an interview with John McCain's wife, Cindy. So, yay, free magazine reading.
For tonight's SammyHubby Appreciation Week activity we are off to see Iron Man. V excited!
SammyHubby is very much enjoying Appreciation Week. He loved his book (I was pleased I had picked up the right one) and he was delighted with the postcard he received today from Astemudfoot - Thanks Aste, it made his morning! He also got about half-a-dozen email replies to an email he sent out on Sudnay, which has reassured him he is loved and missed. So, things are looking up in SammyHubby world, and consequentially, in my world. Now if I could only get a job...
