All the pretty circles

Gee. Look at all those pretty circles!

Just another day in loverly Sydney. As you would probably most be aware, things have not settled down much at the beaches. Pretty surreal.

Arghity-argh. I have been a bit sick this weekend. Some sort of head cold type deal.

After having dealt for a week without cards, it was rather fun to swan about card enabled again (credit card, etc, that is). I went Chrissy shopping for the fam. The situation had been made a bit dire after I ate my mother's christmas present during the week. I will have to try to survive another week without eating the damn replacement version otherwise it will be just silly. The head cold also made me a bit delirious, and the present for my sister is the sort of thing that people look at and go, "...my word ... they are so big!!! .. And a really interesting red colour... different...". Meanwhile, my present for my Dad has also raised some eyebrows. It is a book called "The Wisdom Paradox: How your mind can grow stronger as you brain grows older". Really - it does look interesting. But some friends have commented that it may be rude. Hmmm. It is not meant to be!!
