Weekend in review
Today, I am happy.
That, in itself, means little, to be honest, but it's the culmination of a lot of worries. I love my job, I love my Katy, I love my apartment. Touch wood, things will continue on this merry way *touches wood*.
I had a nice weekend. Lots of yummy spicy food, waaaay too much pig, lots of money spent.
I bought a VCR (which raised my blood pressure – SCART leads are evil, so are NTL boxes) and a little HI-FI for the bedroom. Yesterday, Katy and I went to The Pier and other swanky shops on Fitzroy street for stuff to add a bit of colour to the apartment. Got some nice cushions for the couch and the rocking chair. I seriously need to go back to the open-air market in the city center because I'm drooling over the batik fabric throws. I'm seriously going to spend some money there next pay. It has beautiful stuff, but as Katy says, we need to unpack and place all the schwag we have in boxes before we get more.
I'll be posting pictures of the apartment as soon as things get settled.
Hmmmm, pig.
Katy and I have been eating a lot of pig in the past little while. This makes us happy. Hmmmm, pig. We had Katy's mom's curry last night. Hmmmmmm, curry. And she made this dish with cabbage and carrots and chilies. Hmmmmm, chilies.
We came to Leicester this weekend to drop off some things and pick up a staggering amount of stuff to bring home. Katy's parents are driving us back to Cambs today, so we're going to have a day out and about in town. They also wanted to have a peek at the apartment with all my furniture in it. We're off soon, so more later.
What to do…
What do you do when someone is in such a good mood, because he spent the weekend having wild monkey sex, and wants to tell you all about it, but you just want to beat the shit out of him?
Bleargh
Gah. Second roommate came back from her trip. That means that both her and her BF are back at the apartment. I was enjoying the silence. It’s not that I don’t like her, but I’m having more and more trouble enduring her annoying laugh and kitschy style.
