11:33pm: Yes indeed! And I think Mum's right, oil heaters really do stop moisture from forming, which is a damn good thing because as I might have mentioned before I've been having trouble with that, like when I wake up in the morning there's so much moisture on the inside of my windows you could get a glass of water from it! It's also having an unfortunate effect of causing mould to appear in my pantry. Gross.

The only downside, I don't think this heater I got has a timer on it and I don't think I should leave it on all night...although maybe it'll work with the timer switch thing...

Also it's meant to have four little wheels, I didn't notice until I got it home that there's only three. I'm having to jack it up using an old glasses case. I got it from the Target at Macquarie Mall (it was ice skating day today :O), so I dunno. I guess I could go to the Target at the Warringah Mall and return it or at least ask for fourth wheel LOL.

Anyway! I have exciting news from the big bro, my parents timing was awesome, he and my sister-in-law, Eri had their baby, it's a boy! They've called him John after Dad (and Dad's grandfather, I think). Which is interesting, because I'm not sure if John can be transliterated into Japanes, I guess he could be 'Jon'. Scratches head.

In other news, ice skating went well! Although I think I'm not used to harder ice, I got them sharpened last week and while I did move better today, it was still a bit scratchy. In the summer the ice is softer because of the sun (or maybe because the ice rink was old? They've renovated) and the blade seems to dig in better. Also they are playing ice hockey there now and if I remember right, ice hockey players prefer harder ice. Dang, don't know what this means for me.

What else? Well tomorrow is the play! So I get the day off work tomorrow, nice :O). I'm planning to go to the gym because I totally slacked off on that this week! Aside from that the day is pretty much free until 3:30 when I go to my Aunt and Uncle's place to get ready to head off. The play starts at 5pm in the city and afterwards we'll go out to dinner. I'm looking forward to it.

That's pretty much all I have to say for now...I'm going to try and catch up on my Positive Notes because I've totally slacked off and need to catch up on three months worth of them! o.O I hope I can!

For now though I bid you all goodnight!

I Got Game!

11:18pm: Yes indeed! This evening I went over to Uncle Sam, Aunt Jo and Cousin Mack's with my Simpsons DVDs and ready to play Scrabble!

As it happened we didn't end up playing Scrabble because Mack had a friend over for the night, so we had to play a game that was more of interest to them, which turned out to be a game that I can no longer remember the name of...Oh dear. It's like an Aussie version of Monopoly where you're a sheep farmer and them aim of the game is to get five irrigated paddocks full of sheep. Unfortunately, it didn't go all that well for me, I ended up with no sheep at all! Like Monopoly it took a lot of time to play. Mack and his friend played as a team and we almost declared the game done because it looked like they were going to win, but Mack's friend wanted the satisfaction of actually winning, so we continued...for a lot longer, because they kept missing out on the right spot (you could only buy or sell sheep when you landed on a square called "Stock Sale") and Aunt Jo almost stole the win! But alas she kept getting taxed...just like real life, LOL.

Meanwhile, Uncle Sam kept missing turns because it kept landing on "Go to town" - which I guess is the "Jail" equivalent. As for me...like I said not very good luck I kept going into drought or not able to buy any sheep and losing my sheep etc. etc.

Anyway, I'll have to go back some other time for the Scrabble!

On my way home I popped into this amazingly decorated house near Jo, Sam and Mack's place. I went to the same house last year with my parental's actually, but even with some of the same decorations it was still a sight to be seen. I took video which I haven't uploaded yet, but when I do I'll let you all have a look-see.

And I'm feeling quite sleepy so I'll wrap this up here...may I get around to Memes, some day!

Goodnight all!
