Random Blither and Stuff
Blargh, I just spent 5 minutes assuring an automated voice that all those credit card charges really were me. I hung up on the first call because I assumed that you would get an actual person calling you if they were actually concerned about odd transactions. Silly me!
Anyway, I have had a pretty productive day today! I have sorted the litter tray, bought groceries, taken things down to the basement, vacuumed, done laundry, emailed my mother, booked a flight to Athens, and booked buses and hotels for trips to Greece and New Zealand (hence the phone call from the credit card company).
And now I'mma watch Dancing on Ice.

Which Goddess lurks in your soul? Athena You are a wise one, my dear! Athena is the Greek Goddess of wisdom, disciplined war, philosophy and knowledge. She is a selective Goddess, as she only inhabits those of your high intelligence and keenness to learn great things. You’re usually not seen without a book in your hand or your eyes glued to the internet (which is, after all, the great information highway!). This should not suggest that you don’t enjoy people, as your cleverness and sharp wit are usually in full force when in a social situation, to everyone’s delight. |

Heh. A cat, in a small box. And it allowed the person to take a photograph. I'm impressed :)
Oooh, how is Dancing on Ice going?
no subject
She was giving me The Look, though. She's not dead keen on having her picture taken.
Dancing on Ice was good, apart from the fact that Dr Hilary got through again, and he's rubbish.

Heh. YOu'll need all the sunshine before you come into NZ in winter. *shudders*
LOL at Angel. My girl does it as well you get the look of "hurry up or your camera is dead." It is still a very cute picture.
Ugh. Popularity contest huh.

I must look at Greek Island accommodation too. Have you booked your Athens hotel already? That's another thing I need to sort out - all my between tours accom!
no subject
Is your travel agent looking at accommodation for you, or shall I see if I can find a place in Athens for us?
no subject

Seriously, a weekend trip to see something different in Wellington that is not "toruisty." What would you recommend hon?
no subject
Still, Summer City is on at the moment, which is all free events, and usually quite good. It would depend on what weekend one would be here, the Festival of Circus is on from the 3-10 of March and there's some Waitangi Day stuff going on, both of those are at Waitangi Park, but of course the Sevens is coming up soon too. Newtown Street Fair is always fun.
And to be honest, just having a nice day, wandering about Oriental Parade or heading to art galleries and any theatre productions that are on is good times. Going to a supermarket to get picnic food and just eating it somewhere with a nice view, or wandering around Cuba Street and looking at fun things...
Lots of stuff!

Sorry Deb for hijacking your entry! Oh question--have you tried out the flat white explanation?
no subject
No, I haven't really been out for coffee since then. Will give it a go, though.
no subject
Goodluck with the explanation hon.
no subject
I haven't made it to Greece yet, even though it's waaaay up my list of places I want to go, so I'm really looking forward to it.
I expect there will be pic-spam galore!
Is that a line fom a story? It's ringing "Read aloud" bells in my head.
no subject
Mine too! I suppose it comes with the territory of being a Classics major.
But of course (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Cat_Likes_To_Hide_In_Boxes). One of my favourite children's books.
no subject
I didn't major in it, but I always loved Classics. Well, the art and architecture side and the history, but the politics bored me to tears.
Lynley Dodd is so great. :o)
