Amazing Artwork

This is a huge sculpture by a NZ artist - you can see it from space. Read the article in the NZ Herald.

Catholic Tastes

Sock will eat banana, manadarins and spicy potatoes. She also eats fish, chocolate biscuits, hot chocolate, tepid tea and, well - whatever you're having, really. At least she is not fussy.

Retail Denial

I've been quite depressed the last few days. My phone bill is frighteningly huge (over $300) because I have been putting it off for months "until I have more money", which just goes to prove what a foolish optimist I can be. On the bright side though I have just changed my phone plan to one that will save me around about 1/3rd of the cost of calls. Now I just need to pay Tcom before they cut off my phone!

So you can see why I'm depressed, and why the opportunities for retail therapy are slim to nil unless I throw all reasonableness down the sink. But I do need a couple of pairs of socks that don't have holes in them, so I mite have to visit the Warehouse.

I went to see the Gastroenterology people at the hospital yesterday, who were very nice (although I cried the whole interview, which must have been a bit odd for her) and I have another appointment coming up in a few weeks, at which time she will probably give me an idea of what exams they need to do and how unconscious I will be at the time.

I am crying far too easily at the moment, which is depression as well, despite the anti-depressants I'm taking - although they are good. It is pretty embarrassing because I keep crying in public for no reason at all. My nose and eyes colour-coordinate with my hair! *wink*

Hopefully I will hide out this weekend with Sock and get some sort of grip emotionally again before I get back into the next round of meetings and appointments and emotional idiocy next week.
