another diversion from study

yes, i should be working on my studies for meeting with prof.s on thursday, but i figure, if i do all the things that could possibly distract, there'll be nothing left to distract me ;)

so, pretty much awesome weekend (and did get some study done, oddly enough)

thursday, despite car accident and medical for new job, was well ressurrected by an about perfect evening out. saw 'rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead' at the court theatre, then to dinner at the dux. all was mmmmm, including luuk's stories of worse car accidents that cheered me up, along with the woman in the wheelchair at the medical: i really don't have it all that bad.

friday, ordinary in many ways: prep for navs study next week, morning at untouched world, books, coffee, books, coffee with evans, then to work. work was alright, except i let it run overtime which i never do. i'm a little behind my game this week. not eating well or sleeping at reasonable hour may account for some of this... hm. evening was a combination of origami, frozen yoghurt and... shall we call it 'deconstructed movies' - lots of wee bits of movies, never a whole one. and several pisstakes.

saturday started about as well as they do: big breakfast (despite not finishing all my rasberries, a strange twist) at untouched world and excellent (on par) coffee care of my lovely sister. then went to '8 below' - a film about antarctica and huskies - which was better than expected but not really worth writing home about (altho, it made it to my blog...). afternoon was easily filled with brighton, photos, lunch, sumner, photos, and then trying to recover photos from questionable memory card. my hero ;)
went to see 'spoonface steilburg' at the court theatre (at least it think that was the title) with hannah the actress. dropped her home and had awesome conversation. considering moving into the spare room in their flat. decided i'll be a better friend. more supportive, less... cynical. in fact, in general, less cynical might be a good idea.
then to lindsey and rich's for the last foggy minutes of the rugby, where the worst team won on the day. but at least we didn't have to watch it. could be a conspiracy in fact: the canes won and the one-eyed cantabs knew it was coming, ordered fog (from the manufacturers at wellington airport) to hide it.

if i have any cantabrian subscribers then i'm getting loads of replies.. watch this space

went dancing afterward, which was loads of fun. Got less creeped out than usual by dodgy guys and enjoyed watching a possibly dodgy guy get 'violated' by a probably-pissed girl. sucked at pool as much as usual, possibly more so as somewhat... distracted.

sunday morning walked to church, which is something i really enjoy, then after church had scrummy lunch at lindsey and rich's. ian bought their playstation 2 (which i think my parents are already beginning to resent) and borrowed games (which may well be returned sooner than planned). then spent afternoon studying and doing next navs study, nice and cozy and warm ;)

luuk came for dinner (which i ate all of - only four days! wondered how long that would last...) then we went to visit his mate in hospital and got a fantastic description of how to insert a catheter - i love medical stuff - tho the boys may have enjoyed it less... also watched a wee bit of pirates of the carribean, teased mark as much as was naturally required, and luuk took 27 minutes to do a sudoku. got a wee bit more study done at home before i burned out.

today was blah: training for new job for the morning then attempted to lift my spirits with a wander through borders - got cookbook of soups, very exciting, and second 'lion boy' book! so excited. will be my reward for preparing for thursday. had lunch with andrea which was great - and planned to do something on the weekend. don't see enough of her but sounds a bit like her job is sabotaging her existence... anyone want to offer one of the most brilliant people i know a full time, well paid job? she'll make anything worth reading.

afternoon at work was uneventful. last day at bamford school, then picked up mum and am about to eat dinner and study... until the double gray's anatomy episode is on. there are limits to my conscientiousness.

surprise surprise
