Long Weekend

Another long weekend over. My job currently means that I have managed to miss every public holiday this year. The union guy at work keeps telling me to bail up the lawyer about this but it's just more of an annoyance than anything.

We all got together for a roast again on Sunday, at Hannah's house. I managed to pull off a pretty sucessful roast for eight people. We drank lots of wine and played Triv, kind of. It reminded me about our roast evenings in Wellington, which I miss. It used to be me, Alek, Rico, Mark (who was, of course, vegetarian at the time...), Lucy, Meredith, Rosie and always one other (Mikey or Bis or the random neighbour). Always a good time. And always ending with Alek and I arguing over whether he was allowed to pick at the carcass. It's revolting to watch. Anyway.

Monday I hung out with my parents which was nice. Dad and Imogen made dinner, which apparently required a day of stress for all. I'm getting things all ready to move house in a fortnight. I can't wait. Everything is falling into place house-wise. Mum and Dad both like it. Mum's even having my couches recovered. Geeky and yet exciting.
