(no subject)
Firstly! I am terribly unimpressed because it seems all the apples I bought yesterday actually taste like yuck. Which is not a good thing for an apple to taste like. Plus the stupid fluro bulb in my kitchen blew ten minutes ago so it will be quite dim in my little flat until brother brings a replacement bulb (here's to hoping for tonight). Hrumph.
Anyway, on Friday night Lisa and I went out for dinner in (ugh) Ipswich. The girl who seated us was one of the Super Cool Kids from high school, and HA. Whoever would've thought studying and not concentrating on being omg so great would pay off? Oh snap, vindicated, I say. Anyway, Lisa told her mum all about Bob's dealings with me which created the best quote ever.
Lisa's mum: The dog!
Lisa's mum really is the coolest. But anyway. On Saturday evening, Lisa and her boyfriend Ben brought over a massive stack of old 78s. I found a few art music recordings (all arrangements though) and a few Benny Goodman and Glenn Miller ones. This made me very ^_^. Also passed on a couple pairs of Docs to Lisa, as they do not fit me (oh my stupid huge feet) so it's good someone at least can use them. Lisa and Ben are off for a month long trip in Tasmania now, and I shall miss them.
Sunday it was just hot and Valentine's Day so I worked on my PhD proposal. Monday was SUPER HOT in Ipswich where I had to stay for the extra day, as I had a wonderful meeting with Centrelink. It was probably the most pointless meeting ever, and went for five minutes after I'd waited in the line for over fifteen. Then grandma took me out to the Department of Transport so I could take the test to get my learner's licence. Which I got! Hurrah, I really did not want to do that stupid test twice. So now I can legally learn how to drive and have my very own terrible licence photograph. Last night I deleted all of Bob's friends off my Facebook account (I had actually tried to friend Bob, but he refuses to accept so I deleted that too). It's for the best, now I can't find out anything (really) that'll hurt me (probably) other than things I ask for myself. I had tried to find a day to see Bob this week, but he was unsure of which day, so if he gets back to me I shall see him and if he doesn't, well, I just won't see him. It's not really entirely fair to also have to put up with him being a not-so-great friend on top of the rest I've had to deal with.
And today! I plan to mostly complete my proposal and wash clothes. And also not die due to the EXTREME humidity that's about this morning. It is indeed crushing.
