Becstarr : Big out, big in

Went out dancing for Anna's birthday on Friday (yay IM) and spent most of the rest of the w/e sleeping it off at home and in the garden. Sleeping lots rather than pushing on appears to have made an incredible difference - who knew? I wish I'd discovered this years ago!

YL - working nights has messed up my sleep

Argh. While working 4 nights in ED was interesting ... 2 days later I am still screwed up from adjusting my clock. I think I am just going to have to bite the bullet and coffee myself through the day today.

Also my bindi from Anna's birthday party made me extra cute!

Becstarr : Sleeping in Spanish

After last night's late game finish, slept in this morning and got to work late, but feeling great! The game has reminded me how great the Gladiator soundtrack is.

Still working hard at Spanish. This morning learnt that a toilet is called "el inodoro"... which is actually quite funny.

Anna : Tired

Awesome boxing session on Wednesday (Paul brought torso sized pads and for the last round we paired up and then put our shoulders together and PUSHED!) and an early start on Thursday let me feeling pretty tired. My boss caught me having a big old yawn and commented that I looked exhausted. By 10.30 I had come down with chronic presentee-ism and decided that I might as well go home sick and catch some "ZZZ"s. Three hour nap and then a follow up 10 hours has left me feeling only vaguely human.

Let's hear it for Friday!

Becstarr : Holiday farts

Slept in until 7:14am, thereby missing the early morning Spongebob Squarepants Movie that Joel entertained our young guests with. Farewelled the Craigs and was farted on in return (Ruby: "You're a palm tree, Bec! *climb climb* Goodbye! I farted on you!"). It was a very silly morning.

The rest of the day was far more cruisy, and included a GIANT MANGO for afternoon tea. P.S: GNC Glebe (aka Russells) is closing!! No!!!

Anna : Where did the weekend go ...

That's what happens when you build up to something too much, it flies by and you feel kind of deflated afterwards. A Saturday afternoon looking at fishes and penguins and seals (oh my!) was pleasant, soothing and somewhat educational. Sunday was spent ripping apart camera memory cards in the hope of salvaging them (failed :( ) and spending last Christmas's gift vouchers. And sleeping, there was a good 8 hours of sleeping.

Anna : Searing Stress Shoulders

Exceptionally long day (6.30 start, 30 minutes on the rowing machine, complete with first rowing blister in 8 years, work, work, work, 16 laps of the pool and then over the bridge for film meeting with the Peach Production girls, back home and into bed around 11.30) followed by fitful and disturbed sleep.

Highlight of my night? A nightmare about a box of scorpion spiders stinging and biting my hands. What's a scorpion spider? Trust me, you don't want to know.

Kit - weekend and counting down

Tried terribly hard not to think about work over the weekend. Climbed in the Blue Mountains on Saturday, struggled up a grade 20 complaining the whole way. Slept 12hr straight - getting worried that I've managed to do that 2 weekends in a row. Finished HP7 for the 2nd time, now re-reading from number 2. Packed for holiday, bag feels "too empty".

Anna : Wasted Weekend?

Worked all day Saturday to make back time before I leave my job, extensive napping on Sunday while GUG's happened in the next room. But there was Saturday night, spent chatting and (not) drinking at Leon's house ... kudos for a good impromptu party Mr. L.
