News update
In good news - before I went to bed last night (well technically this morning) I was looking for my nail clippers and before I found them I found something infinitely more exciting. A kiwi-shaped (as in the bird) paua shell necklace and matching bracelet that I'd bought in Akaroa, NZ and completely forgotten about. It was in a small pocket in my camera bag that I never usually use - I guess I figured they would be safe in there. They were.
In bad news I discovered that another necklace of mine is missing one of its two gemstones. Not happy.
In happy news I now have window boxes and pansies and herbs. So my balcony is turning into a bit of a garden. It got too cold to finish planting tonight - so I'll carry on tomorrow after work if it isn't raining.
In other news I went to the cinema and saw a preview of Coraline in 3D. It was all kinds of awesome! Things flying out of the screen to come and get you... If you've not heard of it or aren't sure about going - go! I haven't read the book yet and I still thought it was cool!
I also bought a new vacuum cleaner and it sucks (a good thing for a vacuum to do) which is more than I can say for the old one which doesn't suck.
I have a busy 3 weeks ahead of me at work, so I foresee lots of overtime. Right, now I'm tired and considering bed. But I'm also a bit hungry and considering desert. But am I hungry enough to go to the kitchen (I'm in the bedroom) and find/make something to eat? I think I might have to because sleeping on this grumbly stomach might prove impossible.
