Lotsa things - best update in a while.
Wednesday, June 11th, 2003 11:51 am(No I don't have a mouth ulcer, or at least it's gone now anyway.)
My 5 year anniversary with Sigi today! Wai! Usually I organise everything, but this time Z's going to do it, so what and where we're going tonight is a total mystery to me. I have been seen to be bouncing with excitement and anticipation. I've got to wait hours before I know what's going to happen.
The last while has been spent with me trying to find a present for Z. Aside from the fact that guys are in general hard for me to buy presents for, Z is _the_ hardest one of all. He either has it all, doesn't want it, or it's too high a price range. I freely admitted defeat several times and begged him to tell me what he wanted. As a testament to how hard he is to buy for, not even he knew what he wanted. After coming home from the city Monday night with my feet sore and strains of "you're so sweet" in my ears, I admitted defeat once again. Lo! Behold! He actually thought of something this time. You know those canvas/hessian-like backpack things? He wanted one of those with lots of pockets in which he could put his tools when motorbiking on weekends. My Quest thus was fufilled. So his present is now that and the biggest jar of passionfruit "Roc" candy, the kind with the red heart and purple outside. Before you say anything, no, the jar is not a good enough present, it's a supplemental gift only, thereby neccessitating my getting a different present.
Oh, and it was my parents 36th wedding anniversary yesterday.
I saw Evil Helen and Trevor in the city on Monday. They helped me try to find something for Z, and while it was unsuccessful, it was still extremely appreciated. That and my missing Grace's 21st the other day made me realise just how much I've let my social life slump. I work so much that when I have anytime off, I love spending it at home. Maybe I can sacrifice one night a month to socialness though ;p I'll have to make it to another friend's birthday party that's coming up at the very least.
I have been very annoyed at a manager at work for a while, which I see I haven't mentioned before. Last night may have annouced the end of my frustrations, as it was their shift and I actually had a good night in which I left feeling happy. Not that I don't leave feeling happy other times, just that in general I've left feeling frustrated and annoyed when this manager has had a shift on the same night as I. No more! :D If the situation does revert, I've made my mind up to have a talk to them about it, despite my fears that it'll just get worse if I do.
It's my 5 yr anniversary. Such a good fact I had to mention it twice ;)
Y'all have a good day now, I have enough happiness to share out for those with little.
