We had our work Christmas party on Friday night, now everyone's exchanging stories... mine aren't too bad - just something about me swearing too much, and my top falling down. Nothing I won't live down.
The weekend was good. Except I was very hung over from too much champagne. I started my extremist health kick. I nearly gave in twice, but came out of it with a lean beef burger from mcdonalds, instead of a big meal from KFC, and a packet of strawberries rather than a chocolate bar, yay! I'm so proud of myself.
I went for a run this morning, it was pretty cold out, but it's supposed to be 36 in the next few days.
Someone hit my car. It's the second time it's happened. That's because I work in such a crap area that no-one really cares about their cars. They park 1 centimetre away from you so it takes you 40 attempts to get out... but what do you do?
I might buy a bike for my work Chadstone present. it was an incentive for Sep, Oct and Nov. Our team made the goal budget, so we all get to go to Chaddie for a shopping spree. Not sure yet how much money we get, but should be a couple of hundred dollars... and you can only spend it on yourself. So I think I'll buy a bike.
James and I are quitting tennis to join our local YMCA gym. We can only afford one or the other, and seeing as tennis is only 1 hour a week, whereas gym is unlimited pool, classes and gym equipment, it makes more sense to us to do it.
Ok, better get stuck into my day... not too busy at the mo which is good.
Talk soon

Casual Friday
It's casual day at work today. But I dress casually everyday, so the only difference is, I put my hair in piggy tails, and wore rubber thongs.
What's on for the weekend... not much. Maybe a bit of christmas shopping, exercise, xbox playing, and that's about it. Have tennis tonight, which will be fun.
That's about all that's going on right now. I'm stoked that the week is over. I can't believe it's Christmas in 5 weeks.
See ya

That's it
I've sent in my final assignment for the year yay.
I'm not that confident about how I've gone this semester, I'm just glad to see the end of it.
Having a break should reinspire me for next year.
Anyway, I can't post any of my work, because my assignment was to send it off to try and get it published - and I break the rules if I publish it myself.
So we'll wait and see. If it gets rejected, I'll show you then.
I bought some new Nike Shoes and the Nike + iPod system that is like a pedometre and measures your distance, pace and time, giving you updates through your iPod while you're running. You can have playlists, and a power song that pushes you to run your hardest.
It's cool!
It took forever to set up though, I had to update iTunes which took forever because we're on dial-up until stupid Dodo can reconnect us after moving. I hate Dodo. Money hungry bastards. Obviously they have a hell of a lot of complaints and screw ups if the customer service line can't call you back for 24 hours.
So we're switching as soon as our contract ends.
Anyway, that took 2 hours for the first attempt, and 4 hours for the second attempt.
Then I had to update my iPod software which took another two hours. With lots of errors and searching message boards for answers as to why it doesn't register your internet connection.
Finally got it working. but yesterday I had a go at uploading it with the Nikeplus website, and had a heap of more errors to get around.
It's been frustrating, but hopefully worth it.
Enjoy the rest of your week

Happy November
One and a half weeks till Uni's over, yay! But still have lots to do on my two assignments.
The weekend after that we're going to Albury to relax and celebrate.
James and I are planning a holiday in January, and have decided to escape to Mt Kosciuszco for a week, it's cheaper than flying anywhere, and what we save on flights, we can spend on massages and mountain bike hiring and horse riding.
It's gunna be so much fun! I love the peace and tranquility of the mountains in the warmer months.
It means we'll spend Christmas in Albury and New Years in Melbourne.
There's not much else going on at the moment, but better get back to it.
