ah, yes. back from the long weekend feeling refreshed and well-rested. by midday i’ll be feeling like i never had a weekend.
saturday we went to the opera. “lucia di lammemoor” is the one we saw and it was very good. the Brit loved the fact that it took place in Scotland but yet everyone was named lucia, edgardo, and raimondo. we were the youngest ones there as expected and all the oldies were in full grouch mode, complaining about every little thing – the lights, the seat numbers, the time, etc , etc. i wonder if i’ll get like that when i’m old. can’t wait.
sunday we went to the Imax to see “watchmen.” being a movie based on a comic book, i fully expected the crowd to be on the dorky side and i was not disappointed! the brit, the kiwi and i got there an hour early, secured a place in the queue and proceeded to play with our nintendos. we looked like tecchie nerds but we were not even close to the other geeks surrounding us. the kiwi swore he saw two or three cute ones but i told him that he can’t count us. the movie was okay. very violent and lots of unnecessary blood and guts.
monday we were ultimate lazy lumps and did nothing. hey wait, i actually did chores! i did two loads of laundry and some dishes! i made sure the brit recognised my achievements. i even worked out. i’m so good. but for the parts in between, we stayed in and watched TV, played Wii and ate food. lovely.
vegan life is going well. i’m actually feeling very good and quite healthy. i may actually try to maintain some aspects of it after easter since i’m feeling so good. i’m dying for a piece of cheese though. i almost bought soy cheese at the supermarket but couldn’t bring myself to try it. sounds gross. loaded up on fake hot dogs and tofu though.
have i mentioned that i have the best husband in the world? i was such a grouchy pants yesterday but he still cooked me a lovely breakfast. he so deserves the vacuum i’m getting him for his annivesary gift. seriously, that’s what he wants. first the iron for christmas, now this. nothing says i love you like a dyson handheld vacuum. oh yeah, if you talk to the Brit, don’t tell him. i mentioned that i would get it for him (he excitedly said “do you want me to send you the link??!!” - i felt like friggin’ santa claus) but i think maybe he’s forgotten.
Twin you make me laugh! Your Brit wants a vacuum? Can we trade Hubbies? Mine wants tools…..maybe we can trade for a weekend…you know try it out!
Good girl working out…..I am on to week 2. Pray for me! HA HA HA
yes, let’s do hubby swap for a day. however, you will need to come to australia. since we are twins, they may not notice the difference!
ok, sounds good, when do we trade?
anytime! when can you come here? if you wait until the end of the month, the Brit will come with a new vacuum.
ok, I can wait til the end of the month….your paying for the trade, right? I am broke…
yep. i’ll get the Brit to start busking at the train station to raise money. it’ll be good. he says i need to have more than one girlfriend in australia.
