10:35pm: Yes, my big brother and his girlfriend have arrived here in Australia. I was a bit worried actually because usually he flies with Jetstar and there was a bruhaha with them yesterday when their computer system broke down and 13 flights ended up being cancelled. Although maybe that was only for Australian flights - still one would think there'd be a knock-on affect, but as it turned out, he didn't fly with them this time. I didn't ask who he went with...maybe Japan Airlines?
Anywho! It was good to see him! He's looking well plus he seems to be going really well with his job - unlike the little bro and I who are both unemployed at present - he's full-time and has a secretary (well, OK there's a secretary in the area where he works, so its not his personal secretary). Sigh, people keep suggesting to me that I should leave the Sydney area to find a job, but I'm not very good at making new friends and I like being around family. All the same though...I may have to move actually if the Government gets its way, there's been a bit a reshuffle in the Cabinet and now the complete asshole of an Immigration Minister is the Social Services Minister. I'm sure if it was up to our government they'd be no social services at all, or if they are you have to be reaaaally screwed to get them.
But I digress, I went over to my parents house to see the big bro arrive and went via the swimwear shop, but first of all I found that the on-special stuff was $50 not $20 and they didn't have much of a selection in my size! I guess I'm a more common size now so it gets sold before the swimsuits can go on sale. However! While browsing the net at my parents place - helps me stay quiet which is a good idea since my big bro says I talk too much, LOL - I found a pair of almost exactly the same swimmers on E-bay! They have a different back, but they've still got the nice sweetheart neckline and the black and white stripey bits. Alas they're like twice as expensive as the ones I got at Aldi last year, but I'm going to hope that means they'll last longer. Or perhaps I should cycle my swimmers more - I do have some sporty green and black ones...
Anyway, I'm sure you all have no interest in what swimmers I wear and I do have all those Sunday Stealing memes to catch up on...
( So let's start on that )
Phew! Well, better wrap this up since I do have to get to bed, I need to ring up the laser treatment place tomorrow morning and see about getting my upper lip and chin done...oh and my eyebrows waxed too, just in time for Christmas. :OP
For now, I bid you all goodnight!
