the happy medium

once i finish faffing about here, im gonna make a spinach and potato curry, sure i'll be the best house-girlfriend ever. i'm gonna even follow a recipe (well sort of cos im not going out shopping for bloody cardamon pods) so that will be my resolution covered too.

i bought a creme egg last night, i dont like them but i bet ill eat it. I bought it cos its got different packaging. Maybe i should post it to Fiona, she's a creme egg fiend!

I wish we lived by indiatown instead of chinatown, it would be much more jill-friendly.

didnt get job i went for on friday, but im not sure i mind. Its not a good idea to move to a new country and then have a job crisis. Telly smelly. Everyone does night shifts here, and i dont think i have that kind of dedication in me,

Marks off doing his temp job while i'm at home - he's working 10-4pm, i'm working 5pm til 10pm. So we see each other for about 8 minutes a day until 1030 at night for the next couple of weeks. Thats not very much considering we've spent the last 6 weeks in each others pockets.

oh i disovered something crap last week. bleedin Zovirax and all acyclivor containing products are prescription only. hello? that is the crappest rule ever. Still the pharmacist was nice, not like that time in Crete when Rachael went to get me Solpadeine and nearly got deported for daring to request a codeine-containing product. Stupid world inconsistencies.

"may your curries always be hot and tasty and that your lips always be so supple and coldsore free that you will never need the zovirax....."
its a traditional siberian blessing, i hope nothing was lost in the translation,
