Well, that was the WORST CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR PERIOD EVER!!!!!
Firstly, our family CANCELLED Christmas as my mother and sister were both struck down with some hideous nausea/explosive diarrhoea-ish virus (they STILL have the runs!). We decided to postpone gift-giving, etc. until they both feel better. Hello, it's like, ten days later, and I still haven't got my presents. I've already been warned that this year there is no high-tech gadget, travel voucher, and European leather finery, but still! Me likey the presents! Then New Year's was dull as ever, made worse by the fact that South-East Queensland is like, totally cyclonic at the moment. I was meant to be enjoying a nice respite at my beach house, and instead get blown away by gale-force winds and sheeting rain, etc. I have NO tan to speak of, people. So finally I'm home, and what do I do tonight? PLAY SCRABBLE WITH MY FATHER!!! We drank a six-pack of VB (we both chortled at how déclassé we were) and a bottle of wine, so we were both quite tiddly and it was quite fun in a weird way, but still! Argh. I didn't even win! I hope the next few months really make up for this lacklustre fortnight. |
