I remember last Friday well and have many mixed emotions about it.
There were three awesome things that happened to me and by the time I'd finished work, I was so stoked that I'd decided I'd need to get a bottle of wine to celebrate.
1. Aimee visited me at work. She regularly visits me at work because she works, hmm, about 200m away so seeing each other occurs often enough. But on Friday, she brought me a little hand made present...
I've not much more to say than I adore it. Really adore it. :)
2. I was re-filling the puppet stand at work when I saw this little Lemur. I looked at it and then compared it to another and then proceeded to burst into hysterics in front of a store full of customers. Notice the imperfection? Or... perfection!! :P
3. I bought this amazing "Made in Italy - 100% Virgin Wool" coat thing at Savers, this massive op-shop near Aimee's a few days earlier. I'd been wearing it like crazy around the house because it's a big oversized and daggy for me to be wearing in public. On the Friday night though, once I'd decided to pop down the road to buy a wine, I walked outta the house in this coat wearing no bra or undies and thought, "Fuck, this is liberating"!
Maybe I'm posing, whatever!
I was truly uplifted until I'd set the wine on the counter and was amidst the process of eftpos'ing the wine when my card declined twice even though I KNEW I had money in my account. In short, my night ended in a disasterous, drunken affair after I'd locked my bank accounts down when I found out some fuckers overseas had hacked intomy bank account, transferred 2K to another account and then withdrawn my daily limit. At the moment, I'm $800 down and am hoping to see that money again within a few weeks. Time will tell, eh
I've been so slack with journalling, even though I've got a thousand things to say.
For now, let my mother do the talking.
This is her reflecting back on a particularly wonderful day, many, many years back...
