I stopped on the way to Anglesea at the Waurn Ponds plaza because I remembered they had a shirt I wanted in stock at their Target. Got a park 1 spot away from the entrance immediately. Bought 2 shirts without waiting in any lines. Walked right up to Donut King and got 2 cinnamon donuts, no line. Drove to Anglesea and got a park immediately in front of the shops.
That's the one which is the most popular drink in Japan or something right? I might grab one to try too. I think I remember someone saying they were underwhelming though.
I was contacted through LinkedIn by a recruiter asking if I'd be interested in becoming a full-time merman for a Queenscliff based company, but something about it seemed fishy.
I went to Costco on a rental scooter (not going near that carpark.. Costco weekend parkers are ALREADY bad enough) and every register had decent lines even 20 minutes after opening. Wasn't too painful though. Glad to have that done, was getting the last part of a xmas present. No more shopping required now, it's all leisure all the time!
Think I might pick up some of those Hard Solos on my way back from my drive today and give them a whirl later on. I hear they're pretty decent and taste just like regular Solo.
Fortune cookie says: "Rather than wonder who put bomp in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp, be the one who puts the ram in the rama lama ding dong. Lucky numbers are 13 11 66"
Someone recommended something from somewhere in Anglesea to me a while ago but I can't remember who, what or where. Maybe a pie? Or something sweet? It's frustrating. Thinking about going for a drive out that way today mostly to get a few hours of audiobook in but also just to be out and about.
FUCKOFF FRIDAY: "Boxing Day Sales" are meaningless when they start before Boxing Day. I've seen several big-name stores saying BOXING DAY SALES NOW ON.. it's not Boxing Day. Same thing happened with "Black Friday" sales.
I know it's kind of petty of me to be annoyed by this but if they're going to keep starting their 'X-Day' sales earlier and earlier to try and get a jump on getting customers before their competitors rather than actually competing on price, just scrap the concept entirely or call it a 'season' sale or something.
Slept and slept well! Feeling like a human being again today. Just under 3 hours to go until the bosses informally tell us we can finish up at lunch time like they do every year before xmas. Wondering if I want to go for a drive to buy some ludicrously loud summer and/or Hawaiian shirts to brighten up my wardrobe for the sunny season and also for the cruise. Not sure if Friday afternoon before Christmas or post-Boxing day week would be more hectic.
I have a bottle of wine I bought a few weeks ago which I was saving for.. well I dunno really.. just a sunny day I suppose. Now I'm thinking maybe I'll drink it tomorrow after I finish up for the year but I KINDA want to drink it now too.
I could always drink it now then go and get another tomorrow and drink that one too!
mmm I just ran out of dim sims the other night. I've been making a mix of kecap manis (thicc sweet soy sauce) and sweet chilli sauce for them when I steam them. Quite lovely.
Aww! Just came home to find this hanging from my door handle. The other doors on my floor have the same.
