I’m backkkkkkkkkkkkk from the ski weekend away at Mt Buller!

I think I pulled up rather well for the number of times I stacked it. Goodness knows how, but by Sunday morning, I actually managed to make it down an intermediate ski run without killing myself!

Waking up Monday morning my legs and arms were surprisingly fine, however all the muscles in my abdomen still hurt and every time I cough (which is every five seconds thanks to the disgusting cold that’s been haunting me for the better part of the last month) my entire stomach/abdomen aches!

Despite the general achiness that comes from my first attempts at skiing… I’ve decided I actually like snow. And skiing. And snow men. And fondue. And chocolate fondue fountains! I can’t wait to do it all again sometime!

June was busy. As well as moving house, we went to see Karnivool play at the Forum (which was an awesome show) & caught up with several friends for random drink & dinner dates.The realisation? I actually have a social life these days! I really love having more to look forward to than just work and uni.

I get the feeling July is going to be just as crazy as June was. The next big thing I have coming up? I’m heading up to Mt Buller with some friends from work this weekend! I’M GOING TO THE SNOW and I am RIDICUOSLY EXCITED about it. I’ve never seen snow before! I’ve decided I may even attempt the whole ‘skiing’ thing, although I could have a probem as I hear one actually needs coordination to be able to do so! :)

This week has been ridiculously hectic with work and moving. I’m absolutely wrecked. Hence I’m being lazy and am not writing up a proper entry. I’m giving you a list. :)

• Condensing 2 households’ worth of things into 1 workable household is not as easy as it sounds. It could very easily be classed as painful. Two fridges, two washing machines, two giant TVs, two couches, two cats, 6 beds, 7 computers… you get the picture. We now have soooooooo much ‘stuff.’
• I fail at timing. Our home phone won’t be connected until sometime tomorrow (hopefully) & goodness knows how long it’ll take with the internet company. I’m glad I have a wireless USB stick… without it, I’d be going crazy. I really am an internet addict.
• D has an absolutely lovely view of someone’s bedroom from his window. This particular someone is an old man who likes to get changed in front of his open window.
• My cat totally owned K’s cat in the house domination stakes. Chewbacca embodies the very definition of psycho. Keiko is rather shy. It’ll be interesting to see how they get along over the next few days. Both of them have never met any other cats before…
• So happy I can finally eat proper meals again, a week of eating crap for lunch and dinner because the kitchen was in disarray is now taking its toll. I’m paying for it in the form of a weakened immune system and the world’s most annoying cold.
• I really really hate cleaning.
• The next time I move, it’ll be to England.

I was typing up an entry a few moments ago, and I realised there were people I was mentioning you’d have NO IDEA about whatsoever considering I’ve been ‘blogging’ so sporadically these days. Hence, I made a new page. Located here, it’s a list of people featuring in the soapbox saga that is my life. Ya’know. To avoid confusion. :)
