My Star Wars edition of Empire hasn’t arrived yet – this is killing me!

Footy

Footy Tonight

I can’t believe it. Finally get Dad okay with coming to the footy and what happens – this morning there is a letter in the Sun about two (out of 40,000 people mind you) yobs at Colonial Stadium. Of course Dad latches on to this as the end of the world. How maddening. I have never seen anything like this at the footy and today of all days the stupid rag that specialises in sensationalism decides to run a letter. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

Anyway, once they get here and see it is all okay it will be a good night, until then I only hope he behaves himself so mum can at least enjoy her first member’s game.

We have lift off.

We have lift off.

May 11 – all hands on deck. Rae is obligated to pay rental on her current place until it is leased again. Here’s hoping, we have until the 14th.

Here We Go

Here We Go

I’m gonna be a Westie. The agents called Rae last night and we have the house – wow! That was so quick, just over 24 hours. The amazing thing is that the agent said we can move in tomorrow – which would give the current tenant one day to get out. We saw the stuff she had in there and it’s going to take her longer than 24 hours to pack and move.

So, not sure when it will be, will know when later this afternoon. Rae has to break her lease so we are hoping she can do this sooner rather than later. May be a busy week or two ahead. I’m paid up until June 1 and I’m sure Veronica will be very flexible. She’s a great gal.

Combining Rae’s and my ‘stuff’ will be interesting – the house will have two DVD players, three televisions, two stereos, two queen size beds (although one will go to Rae’s mum), over 100 movies on DVD, about 600 CD’s – no shortage of entertainment, which is a good thing ’cause money is going to be tight for a while. There are two parks – one through the back fence (thankfully there is a gate) and one directly across the road. I don’t know the area that well so discovering the delights of Newport will no doubt be fun for a while.

Exciting times ahead, stay tuned.

Here I go. Leaving work a few minutes early to head home and under the doona. Wondering when we will hear about Johnston St

Cold

Cold

I have a cold. A proper cold. Doctor says it’s viral so I can’t do anything about. Grrrrrrrrr. It’s okay as long as I don’t need to breath.
