It seems like it's going to rain. I think summer may officially be over. The wind kicks up around 3pm and the temperature drops. Hopefully it will clear the traffic with a loss of all the tourists, not that I have to rush off to anywhere. Rush out of bed for a little stretch, coffee and a quick call to someone from home. Traffic doesn't really phase me anymore.

go from red to black and suddenly every where I look, black. what's with that?

is thinking swimming might be on the agenda today.

is going for a little cheeky wine!

So last week after I became a Lady of Leisure, Aliki gave me shit for not keeping up the blog. I'm off to a good start. Took me a week to update. HAHAHA. Well I guess that is what happens when you have nothing but time on your hands and you realize that you do, in fact, have more to do now then you did before. All these things that you let slide because "you were too busy with work" no excuse now. So I say hello again to yoga, blogging, sightseeing, taxes for two countries (blech!), sorting out my British citzenship once and for all, phone calls and eating at more regular intervals and more reasonable hours. goodbye dinner at 10pm. Planning trips for the Easter vacation and the week after, looking for a new place to live in case they sell our place and the move is unavoidable. Phew I'm tired just writing it all. Maybe I should take a siesta? Oooo lucky me. I guess I can pass out here on the lounger on the patio since I am well sunscreened up. Stay young wear sunscreen, really, wear sunscreen here. The sun is crazy strong.

I have to go to Physio at 5:30 but when I get back I will have a cheeky glass of wine (my stylist taught me that) on the patio before I make dinner. A little BBQ chicken with salad and peut-être un peu plus de vin! Double cheeky!

My heart is broken and mended in the same day,
I cry, I yell, I smile and I die,
Three to one,
It's hard to survive when the odds are against you,
I still win.

Sam vs. McChicken (the McChicken won!)

Got up this morning a little late, recovering from Gabrielle's party last night. I love sangria! Had a coffee and a toasted tomato sandwich. Showered and read a few chapters of Long Way Round. Gavin called so I went with Greg to Deus to meet him, hung out there for a bit and then decided to ride to Crown St. for a coffee. Riding along Paramatta Rd, enjoying the day and WHAM, I get beaned with a McChicken - ya that's right, A &*#! MCCHICKEN. I actually had no idea what it was when it hit me, but Gav was behind and looked up from his GPS just in time to see it and the wrapper bouncing off me. OMG I got hit with a McChicken. I cannot stop laughing. Must stop laughing, stomach hurts from too much laughing. :D
