Not a terribly eventful day, apart from shopping and--you guessed it--lunch out at a Vietnamese restaurant in Darra (which is usually good for its beef noodle soup, but today's beef wasn't up to their usual standards ( Read more... )

Is the human body really meant to sleep this much? I must be breaking all sorts of world records with dozing off today... *slightly concerned* I think I should just avoid my bedroom during the day and do other things while resisting the urge to lie down and read a book. Like maybe play more FFXII--yeah, that sounds like a plan. lol.

I'm feeling kind of pleased with myself that I didn't buy anything when we went out today when we were at Garden City, but at the same time, a little disappointed... lol. Still, it's probably all for the best, as I wasn't able to find anything I wanted to get; I could have gotten my sister the last Harry Potter book, though, but I might save that ( Read more... )

Maybe it's just my part of town, but there didn't really seem to be any crowds, or things worth buying at today's alleged "sales"; maybe everyone went off to DFO or something? Regardless, mum managed to find a few things for the kitchen, and some discounted Christmas stuff for next year (if we remember where we've kept it between now and then, lol ( Read more... )

What the title says, really. Yeah. :-)

Hope everyone had a great Christmas this year!

A slightly earlier entry today, just in case I need to free up the phone line later this evening (probably a good assumption ( Read more... )

Also, there are overdue library books to return, and that's bad ( Read more... )

Not a lot to blog about today; well, except for actually acquiring the zodiac spear in FFXII, but there are greater challenges to overcome ahead. lol. Guess it must be time for a comic entry ( Read more... )

Typical: I do all that bloody levelling up only to get to a point in the game where I have the option to go after a really powerful weapon (the zodiac spear is the strongest in the game, actually); the only catch is, I'll be doing so at a point much earlier than is sensible (roughly 1/5th through the game) in an insane death-maze populated by ( Read more... )

...Such as it is in the title, though we really didn't stay out as late as we could have (thankfully). I wanted to grab a few more gifts (including one for the dog), so we went out to Mt Ommaney for dinner at The Coffee Club beforehand. Tasty, but expensive (definitely moreso than eating Chinese food). While there, some guy in a Nutcracker-esque ( Read more... )
