*sigh*
i failed at making toast this morning
it shouldn't be as hard as it was
all it needed was a few pieces of bread and the the toaster to toast it
but i couldn't get whole slices of bread off the loaf
so i ended up with bits of toasted bread not toast
yesterday i went to the aquarium
it was supposed to be to get away from the heat and to relax for a bit
i forgot it was both school holidays and a saturday
and that it was feeding time
ich!
too many people were waiting to get in
being an Aquanaut i decided to walk past the queue and head straight on in
but there was still too many people already inside
it was definitely cooler inside though so that made me feel better
work on friday night was just all wrong
i got given an outside job to do
so i waited until it got dark to go outside
my timing was poor and lots of customers came then
meaning i had to go in and out lots of times
and then at the end it got busy again so i had to rush around outside bring all the stuff in
it made me even hotter boo!
yesterday was also a one year anniversary of the first date i went on with
Stephania88 i went to buy some flowers
this should have been easy
but alas i couldn't even get that right
i bought them too early
so in order to make sure they didn't die before i got them to her i had to put them in water at home
this meant i had to unwrap them and then wrap them again
not only this but i bought them on my way home from the aquarium
so i had to wait for a tram after i purchased the flowers
the weather had turned horrible
and it was windy
some of the fancy paper the florist had put around the flowers blew away
and i got poked numerous times
i decided to also buy some flowers for
ephanti felt that it would be a good way to cheer her up some after she didn't have a brilliant week
i let the florist choose the colour
i think this was the best decision i made in the past few days
i was happy i had bought them this morning
as i sat and ate my toasted bits of bread i was able to look at something pretty
i hope they have not died by the time i return home
currently i am at Mornington
i am supposed to be having lunch with a friend who lives in Mount Eliza
i'm just waiting for him to let me know he is ready
and i plan on having dinner with my parents
but again i couldn't get that right
and i chose the one day in a long time that they decide to go out for dinner with friends to come and visit
the trip is not completely wasted because i have things to collect
i must remember to put them in the car after i finish posting this
most things went right last night
the date went pretty much to plan until dinner finished
which was all i really had planned
i had fun and so did
Stephania88 finally this morning i had a decision to make
i pondered it for some time
it appears i made the wrong one
*sigh*
the week wasn't all bad though
i went to see The Bees on Thursday night
it was a horibble night to be stuck in a poorly aired room with a few hundred people
but it was still excellent
i would have said it was the best performance i had seen all year had i seen it last year
but as it is i don't know what i might get to see in the next 51 weeks
i sincerely doubt however that this show could be bettered
when i went to see Snow Patrol the singer apologised for being rusty after having lost his voice
i was largely disappointed with the performance all round not just his voice
the first thing Paul Butler (the guy who does most of the singing) said was "you'll have to excuse the yodelling, i seem to have lost my voice somewhere in Tasmania"
i already knew of this since
Stephania88 informed me she had read of it in the paper
i feared there would be a repeat of the Snow Patrol concert
it was okay though because it was rather entertaining
you could tell the guys voice was off
but the artists abilities with the various instruments was amazing
most of the band swapped instruments a lot
there was some instrumental songs
they sounded awesome, even better than the recorded versions
and in one case they changed the song by simply omitting the vocals
i liked the instrumental version so much more
a new album is to be released by them in March
and they played plenty of new stuff
which was as good as the old if not better
despite the fact that i didn't know them
all in all a great experience that will be difficult for me to forget
=)
i'm getting hungry now
perhaps i should call my friend and harass him to join me for lunch
i'm off
seesya later
Lucky
