Allo!
So, what's happening?
My car died. It's been resurrected since, but I'm very, very lucky that it only cost me around $200 to fix, including the towing charge from Brighton to my mechanic in Somerville.
Apparently there's a chance that the head gasket might warp in the future, which would cost over $1000 to repair. My mechanic is gobsmacked that I was able to make it as far as I did without frying the engine... I got to within walking distance from work, which was handy, really (I say this retrospectively, at the time I was CHEESED, especially as Stu was in Sydney, so could only save me from afar).
I keep waking up at around 4-5 am, inexplicably. I'm not feeling too tired during the day, nor am I falling in to bed exhausted, but I feel robbed.
I've been playing squash about once a week with my little brother John - so much fun! But he's like, mega-champion of the squash world, and I am ultra amateur, so his patience is something to behold. I'd love to play more often, but Stu's reluctant to take out a membership, and John only has so many days to spare. Anyone down my way wanna play?
We've changed just about everything to do with the wedding - we'll eventually elaborate on that on the other dormant blog.
Still doing well at work, winning awards, getting bonuses and receiving compliments. Hurrah! Sometimes though I feel that it's too good to be true, and I'll be back in an admin role, or worse, unemployed again... but then I guess that's why I make an effort - once bitten, twice shy, all that.
I'm the same old weight as usual. It goes down, 'my time' comes along, it goes up, I work out really hard, it goes down, I have seventeen birthdays in a week, it goes up, I play squash, it goes down. I'm going to see a counsellor, to make sure that I can maintain my enthusiasm, and learn to say no to grandmas who insist I must have cake.
That's all - smooch!

I'll play squash with you. Even though I'm the ultra-ultra amatuer, it seems like something that will get the heart rate up!
Yay Martie! Are you around the mid Bayside region? I'm in the very deep south of said land - is there a court in between? I should do some research!
Yep. Smack bang in the middle of said land.
But willing to travel.
GSOH, etc, etc!
I know of a couple around this area and a bit beyond if you need some help.
Fabbo, great!
I'll try and email you.
