Canada is an Indian word meaning 'Big Village'

I had a great day at work today. I was looking forward to it this morning cos I like the ASP.net project I am working on now, and I knew what I was going to do etc. etc. and then I got there and remembered three of the guys at work were going to a Microsoft Connect course (plus one on annual leave, and one on bereavement leave) so it would be quieter. Although with David there it's never completely quiet. Anyway today I had a caramel cafe macchiato from esquires and it was yum. So yum that I was really excited about work all afternoon and stayed till 5.45, and only went home then cos I didn't really want to walk home in the cold and dark, and besides I was cooking tea. So I cooked vegetarian lasagne and it was yum! Then I came up here to pack, paint my nails, read my book etc. Oh and Brendon rang so that was nice too. Even though I'm not normally a phone person. Did I mention I started work at 8am this morning.
Oh and the heel snapped off my shoe at lunch-time today! This was a tragic occurrence.

I had two weird dreams last night.
1) Dean and I were studying a map and we both agreed 'yeah that's where the titanic sunk' and then got a digger to dig up a bit of sea bed there and then found this coin and it was gold and silver, and we sold it for $100,000 and got to keep $50,000 each. Of course the digger was free.

2)Lisa was telling me I had to break up with Karthik because she'd stopped liking him and now hated him, cos she'd spent all afternoon with him and he kept saying that he didn't mind to any of our decisions like 'where should we eat' and 'what shop should we go to next'.

So both of those were just so truly bizarre! I was glad after the second one that I woke up and it wasn't true, but the first one.. well $50,000 would have been nice :)

Grad ball tomorrow in chch! Exciting but I hope my plane isn't delayed, that I don't miss it, etc. etc. - I arrive in chch at 7.20 and have to get all ready and to ball by 8 ish... Will be interesting. But when I'm there I am sure I will have a great time seeing Charlotte, Matt, Carl, his girl, Mindy and Darren etc..

And Saturday I am having lunch with the gps in Irwell, and seeing Joy, then going to a 21st, after which I'm staying at Lisa's, flying back to Auckland Sunday lunchtime, then having a massage by Cecile :) Which I am sure I'll need by then. Ooh how exciting. I might even meet Bastiaan! maybe.

Me again, just wanted to say hey and I've got a blog now too! And also it's really weird because now you talk about all these people in your posts and I have no idea who they are! But I'm sure they're great and eventually I'll get my head around who everyone is.

And how much coffee had you had before you wrote that post? It's even more disjointed than some of the ones you wrote last year :)

I prefer the word 'random' to disjointed. Yes, only one macchiato.
Maybe I'm inhaling caffeine from the other coffee drinkers who surround me.
