Far out, neglected.

I don’t know what has happened, but I seem to have somehow started neglecting my blog and have fallen into a fortnightly update cycle.  I am going to improve on this. To the update:

Last weekend I went to Amy‘s 21st and into town on Friday night, played paintball and saw Ice Age 2 on Saturday and went to the food festival on Sunday. All of the above were a lot of fun. 🙂 What? You want more details? Oh, alright then.

Amy’s 21st was a bbq with good food and great people and some interesting stories. Town was fun, with some good pool and some dancing, all on one bottle of bundaberg.

Paintball involved me getting shot a lot and shooting lots of people. Possibly the most fun I’ve had playing paintball. I think I got shot at least 12 times. This was mostly due to my cavalier atitude to ducking and hiding. I was in a charge and shoot mood and was enjoying the running and jumping. Went to Macdonalds straight afterwards all covered in paint and looking feral. Then home for a shower and on to Ice Age 2, which was great. This was followed by a visit to coffee culture where I had a banana buzz smoothie with a shot of espresso, which was kind of a mixture of items on the menu, but tasted great. Then I went to Borders, and as always, was sucked in and walked out with 4 books. – 3 cookbooks and Stardust by Neil Gaiman which I have now finished and really enjoyed. Then to Amy’s place for tea and then home to recover from the weekend thus far which also included making and consuming lots of smoothies.

On Sunday I went to church and then went round to the Pink Palace and dragged Mark and Dave to the food festival, which we all thoroughly enjoyed. We did almost have to be rolled home though. $15 entry fee and then more free samples than we could eat of everything. I might put up some photos of the seminar I did there if I get them off Dave. – Done. Some food festival photos in photo album. Click thumbnails to take you there.

Seminar Warming my hands.

Then home for fantastic homemade by Mike pizza and smoothies, which I did somehow manage to fit in. Then watched The Italian Job on DVD.

Ok, so that was one weekend…

I think the previous weekend was one of general relaxation, but that is probably because I am tired… Please remind me if I did something significant.

In other news, I had a job interview at work today with a view to me changing departments. Lots of probing questions. Work in general is busy this week, which is great. I like being busy. This is partially because it is a short week. I’m on holiday from Friday till Anzac day, which I’m looking forward to. Plans for the break are currently sketchy. I do plan to go to Queenstown for a few days and Warbirds over Wanaka. Who with is somewhat unorganised at the moment.

Now past bedtime. I’m off to sleep. Apologies if I’ve missed something, and feel free to let me know.
