today.when I woke up it was raining. and thundering, which prompted me to roll back over and enjoy the comfort of my bed while the outside world was so inhospitable. when I eventually did get out of bed, it was to mooch around the house until Tim and I decided to go shopping.Walked up to randwick in the rain. Bought a bunch of food and the like and caught a bus back.Then I snoozed, and managed to sleep through my boxing class. *grumble* so Tim and I thought about going to watch a movie, but opted to save money and watch 'Back to the future' parts one and two, as it had been highlighted recently that I hadn't actually seen them.So, the first movie I could sit through, the second one I kept yelling at the character because he's so damn annoying.anyway.Microwave popcorn and then a nice tasty healthy home cooked meal went down a treat.Yesterday I got a lift back from Mosman from my dad, complained bitterly about the heat and the stiflingness for a while and went into town with Tim in the evening.Bacardi festival is on, so we met Ben Hunt and Sarah and Dave to have a bit of a salsa.We didn't take an umbrella... which was silly at first. Anyway. Dave has put on a fair bit of weight lately... a bit disturbing really. Tim and I sorta learned how to Salsa, except we had to meet his friend Claire at 7.30 so we left early and didn't get a chance to try and win heaps of prizes. We Met Claire and then Tim's french boss Laurent and his girlfriend Emma and headed to the domain to hear the symphony.Tim's friends had been there all afternoon saving a spot. Unfortunately, it was raining as we went in and we got a little damp around the edges, thankfully it cleared before the performance started and also, Tim's friends had brought blankets to sit upon. So we nestled in. Tim launched in telling laurant how I spoke french, which of course put me on the spot. Laurent's English is excellent and I really don't like talking in front of people who speak english so well, because I feel inferior, which i am. Anyway, when I did start talking to him he was raving about how I had no accent (bullshit) and that I spoke perfect french. (also bullshit) but let him believe it if he wants to. He was saying that usually when people tell him they know people who speak french it involves very slow, poorly pronounced and pidgin french. Luckily we didn't talk for too long hey?Anyway, Symphony was pretty impressive, during the Planets, they were projecting solar system images onto the domain roof. Very Pretty and during the 1812 overture they set off fireworks and had cannons that shot sparks in time with the drums. Very croud pleasing.I found it a little low brow that they closed with the star wars theme...Anyway, from the symphony, we headed to Karaoke, where upon arrival we realised that the room was absolutely packed.There were 26 of us all together, and the room was not very big.But a fantastic time was had by all and much alcohol was consumed by most (not me)It amazing how much you sing, even when you don't have the microphone and half the time don't know the words.I looked out for Pearl Jam songs, but couldn't find any.So Then, headed home.and thus ends my weekendThis week I'm not working and so the slow monotony contiues. Wednesday is big Day Out and if I'm lucky, Dom arrives on Thursday.that would be really good as I'm working neither thursday nor friday and unlikey that I would be working on monday either.so yeahnought to do.boring etc.
