... but sleep-ins must come a pretty close second! There's something wonderful about sleeping to the late hours of 08:56 before you open your eyes to greet the world. There's something even more soothing to the soul which involves rolling over and dozing for another hour after that before finally waking up and leisurely checking your email and booking a three day holiday.
To say that I've had a good day today would be fairly accurate if understated!
I woke up and checked my email. Responded to a email questionaire thingy and then booked a three day holiday to Launceston for Gene and I to enjoy mid-November. Having started to spend money a mere hour after I'd woken up, I discovered the urge to spend more money. Can you tell pay day was recent? Gene and I boldly (or stupidly) brave the new DFO complex that opened a just two days ago. We went, we shopped, we left a bag of shopping - paid for - at the shops. So guess where we're going tomorrow morning?
Having spent some money on clothes (mainly black tech clothes) I arrived home and felt a little bad about the shopping spree but decided to keep spending and fulfil a promise that I made to myself after Wednesday's induction at work of sponsoring a child. I figure that the $1.30 a day it works out to will be better spent on child sponsorship than me buying junk to snack on at the vending machine round the corner from my desk. Plan is the Commonwealth Games Goodwill Partner and it's how I heard of them. They mainly focus on kids and, most importantly for me, have no political or religious affiliations. Definitely check out their site, even if you're not interested in sponsoring a child. It's a great website and lots of fun to play in.
I'm just hanging about the house now, passing time... spending less money... Dad's coming over with Mum for dinner tonight and to drop off our new business cards which is very exciting. I love business cards. Especially after so many people asked for them during Fringe.
I would be heading out to Naomi's housewarming but our car's lights have decided to play funny buggers and I don't really want to drive without lights... Gene's at a bucks night as well so maybe if he's up for taxiing out there later... but who knows! For the record I'd like to say that I'm very sorry about the whole piking thing but know deep down that Naomi would prefer us to be alive than squished in the car.
On that note I'm going to try and call her again to let her know what's happening - or not happening.
Yay for sleep!
