Ah, 2004....

2004 opened well, I thought. I'm down in Christchurch staying with two of my mates and we spent New Year in the warm summer garden, drinking, smoking and talking about the universe.

I have a few resolutions for the coming year, but not started them yet (too hard to give up smoking when I'm staying with two smokers!) - will do that when I return to Wgtn.

Resolutions for 2004 include:

• Quit smoking


• Cut down on alcohol


• Stay in touch with friends more


• Study hard (ha ha ha)

As for winning lotto, well, as you can see, it's not a goal for the year (I've never bought a ticket and don't have a clue how to play) but if the hands of Fate should see fit to drop a couple mil into my lap, so be it. I don't argue with the hands of Fate. Or the hands of anyone else, if they're handing me money.

The place I'm staying has 7 dogs - 2 cavalier king charles, 1 miniature poodle, 1 cocker spaniel, 1 pitbull/rotty cross, and 2 adorable 4-week-old spoodles (cocker spaniel mixed with poodle). They are all such lovely dogs, really nice natures and very smoochy. I have fallen in love a little with the poodle, he is a 3-yr-old and moves with tiptoe grace, like a dancer in a black curly leotard. Seriously thinking about smuggling him home with me, but somehow I dont think the cat would approve :)

Anyway I'm in Christchurch for a few more days, soaking up the sun and catching up with people - it's so relaxing :) Am looking forward to getting home though, I want to do more painting!
