So, here I am, in the study, staying awake! Yup, no falling back asleep for me! I'm going to sit here with my coffee and look at jobs until 9am, when I will start getting dressed and head over to the gym to meet vivienne_aster by 9:30 for a work-out. Because I am disciplined, yesiree.

Yawn.

The past few days have been pleasant apart from what I now think was a bout of hayfever yesterday. Sunday I went to the cinema and saw Enchanted which was a lot of fun, I wasn't going to bother with it as I thought it was just another Disney romantic comedy, but then heard good things about it from vox_diabolica and jpom40 and mc_shamo wanted to see it, so I decided to give it a go. I'm glad I did, it was good value. We went Gold Class at Crown, which was awesomely awesome. The cheese platter was great, my coke came in a glass and mc_shamo called me short because the seats were so big and comfy my feet didn't touch the ground.

Monday I worked in the morning, then saw my psych in the evening. He commented that I seemed much more relaxed and vibrant, this can only be a good thing!

Tuesday I went to the Queen Vic Markets with vivienne_aster and after i'd done the boring fruit and veggie shopping we had fun poking about, looking at clothes and leather stuff and watches. I only bought one top, and it was off the $5 rack, this is pretty good for me at the moment. Due to being a miser all last year, and quite frugal for a few years before that, I had gotten to the point where if I didn't buy new clothes and accessories the ones I had were going to disintergrate. I think I've spent about $300 since Christmas, which is a lot for me. Still, I've bought jeans, sandals, two casual tops, one nice top, a leather wallet, a red leather handbag (which is my current favourite thing), socks, gym shorts and tracksuit pants. My parents also gave me a new set of runners. Hopefully all this means I won't need to buy anything for a while! (Except a skirt, if I can find a mid length skirt that is not full of ugly and would be suitable for work as well as casual wear my wardrobe will be complete!)

Yesterday I spent feeling headachey, generally achey and sleepy :-( I think it may have been hayfever and possibly over-doing it at the gym the night before (I think we stayed for 2&1/2 hours all up). still I feel much better today!

Wish I could hide at home today instead of going out in the heat, but my Dad asked me to have lunch with him in the city. It's been a very long time since he wanted to just see me on my own without my brother, and I don't think I'm allowed to resent being lumped in with my brother all the time if I turn down my first opportunity to see my father on my own that I've had for a year or so, am I?

Besides, afterwards I can go to the lovely air-conditioned DFO at Spencer st and look at skirts...
