didnt get around to posting… it’s been a busy few days.
on sunday it was sunny so i sat outside and had coffee and toast. yes, it’s winter. then i took a walk to a craft market and ended up in the botanic gardens. i took a bunch of pix which i’ll post later. when i first got there it was empty and i was wandering around pretty much by myself. very relaxing. course suddenly there were screaming kids & tourists. argh. i didnt realize how large the gardens were & ended up walking down past the vodafone arena to richmond and back. a nice long walk. then i met a friend @ the casino theatre so we could see charlie’s angels. a fun movie that made me want to look into taking martial arts (though im way to busy for that). after we made our way to their cigar bar (yeech) that happens to have a wonderful selection of vodka (yeah!). i’ve been meaning to check it out and it didnt disappoint. as i’m asking about their selection, one of the waiters brings over like 6 bottles of vodka & places them on the table next to me. heaven. did i mention they serve roasted almonds & choc covered coffee beans as snacks (free!)? heaven. it’s now my fav place as long as no one is smoking a cigar. after we watched the wimbledon final.
on tuesday i did a ‘trial’ at a juice bar. every food service place i’ve talked to is into this idea of a ‘trial’. they won’t just hire you. i liked the juice thing and hope that works out. of course after leaving i wandered across the street to this designer clothing shop and ended up buying a skirt they had in the window. a skirt which is amazing, my fav colors and fit me perfectly. and it’s a one of a kind. i had no business buying it but i did. cue the asshole song.
went out with a cute 22 year old wed nite. have another trial work thing early next week. it’s been getting colder and i’m not happy about that (say 40s in the evenings & high 50s day time). also realized that i only have a little bit over a week before school starts again. crap.
