Today is Tuesday. I feel tired like a Monday, but I don't have the normal free periods that I do on a Monday. That makes me sad. This week I must take my car to get its WOF. There is probably stuff I have to fix, but it is easier to go get it checked and then fix it than any other way. I shall probably go to the VTA at some horrifically early hour of the day. I want to go home and work on reports but I can't. Mainly because the disks I want to use had to be checked by the technician (they are being all weird about viruses right now) and he hasn't returned them yet. Suck.
I had an alright weekend. Beau got sick with a disgusting stomach bug so I didn't spend as much time with him as I'd like. I did get some good slacking done tho. Yay! And I managed to do the marking I needed for reports. I just have to write the danged things now. Some of my time in the weekend was spent watching average movies. I saw Uptown Girls "starring" Brittany Murphy and it was actually quite sweet. I also saw Secretary which Margie and I found creepy. I thought Maggie Gyllenhaal was good in it. Both her and her brother do creepy quite well I think. I watched Honey which is basically a 2 hour long music video and I enjoyed it because of the dancing and also because I think Jessica Alba is cute. I also managed to leave the couch and watch Troy. Average story, but as I told Beau it is Bradelicious.
On Sunday Night I went out with Beau and his extended family for his Grandfather's 83rd (I think, maybe 84th) birthday at the James Cook Hotel. They have a buffet restaurant on the 17th floor. It's quite neat to get to go to all this stuff with his family altho Beau abandoned me for much of it to go catch up with cousins. I sat and talked to two of his brothers and a sister-in-law. Chatting to her I found out that their anniversary is a couple of days after mine and Beau's. Which was kind of strange since we went to their wedding earlier this year and Beau and I aren't planning on anything like that for a good 3 or more years. Another strange thing was when Beau's uncle came and asked Svend (Beau's Bro) who his 'ladyfriend' was... meaning me. It is understandable tho as Svend and I used to flat and I had gone to a couple of family things with him when Beau was still studying down in Dunedin.
Thinking of Svend reminds me that I want his Bread and Butter Pudding recipe. All the ones I look at seem too tricky. It also reminds me that we have roleplaying on Saturday. YAY!
I am looking forward to Friday as it will be a bit like Thursday and by actual Thursday I will have handed in the Reports. Then I will only have FORM Teacher reports to do... great..
