As You Wish Nick

Hello!

Well I just had a lovely 4 day weekend. Back at work today with a terrible cold. Go figure.

Anyway my weekend was lovely (as mentioned in the previous line). I went plant shopping on Friday and bought some strawberry plants and a Chatham Island forget-me-not for myself. And additionally I bought a fly trap for Darren. It is such a cool wee plant. On Friday night Darren fed it three flies he caught, it takes a few days to digest them, so we're expecting it to open up again any day now.

I also bought an aquarium in the weekend. There are two reasons for this:

1) I have wanted one ever since I was 10.
2) It was reduced from $109 -> $79.95 -> $50 at Mitre 10 so I took that as a sign.

It's just a wee one to start with (13.2 litres), and when I move into my new place I'm going to set it up and buy fish for it then. I can't really set it up at this flat as in my room the pump is a bit too noisey for me to sleep with. Well actually the pump is silent but the bubbles are noisey. But when I move I'll be able to set it up in the living room.

What other news? None really. My Auntie has just bought the house next door to Mum and Dad's but she won't live there for a couple of years.

John Cleese last night was interesting. It was really quite a personal type show, just him telling stories from his life, and his last trip to NZ. His daughter was involved in it, I couldn't believe she was only Amy's age!

Hey People
I hope everyone is good.
I just saw Kate at the MacMillan Brown library. She seems good. I am reading 2001 News Advertisers at the moment. They have a really long continuing educ section that mega pisses me off.

Wow! Camilla is only 21.

Thats amazing. She looked so much older. Like in her 30s. Weird.

It must be because she is so tall.

Mindy said...

Oh yeah Nick she was probably your dream woman actually. She was seriously tall for a chick. Great figure, long legs, revealing outfits. Funny and clever and rich. The whole package.

Mindy said...

Are there no girls at your work Adam? That's sad.

Although at least you have a potplant. Did it flirt with you?

Mindy said...

Adam updated his site yay!

Adam, what did you end up eating? I simply can't wait till your next post to find out.

Mindy said...

Ah Adam you're brilliant! Suspense! That was the word I was looking for. My mind went completely blank as I was writing that comment, all I could think of was tension and anxiety but neither of those really expressed my true feelings, which are indeed feelings of suspense.

Can't you just tell me now? Pulease? You could whisper it to me!

Mindy said...

I didn't hear you!!! NOT FAIR!!! Can you whisper louder next time. The suspense is killing me!!

Mindy said...

Oh you would be surprised by my ability to be excited about suposedly mundane things.
