What I'm hearing:: I Need a Hero from Shrek



Firstly, I have forgotten February, March and April Birthday hellos!

So here goes:

February - Bree and Nikki, hope you girls had happy birthdays, you already got my birthday wishes over at the Haven! Phoebe Hannah, my baby cousin - 13! You're not allowed to grow up yet. And on the 22nd, Eryn, Zoey and Cath's mum! (oh yeah and Chris... but who's counting there?)

March - There's quite a few here, (in no particular order) my uncle Pete, Cherie, her ex Marty (who I haven't seen in months) and this really stupid irritating chick I used to be friends with.

April - Dad, Aunt Ab,Ryan's cousin Emma and stepdad Ronnie... and me! April is busy.

So as for busy April... what?

My last weekend looked something like this:

Thursday: Go to Jay's.. LAN IT UP watch about 6 hours of the Nat Geo channel (I love pay TV), sleep at about 3am.

Friday: Wake up at 10, watch another few hours of Nat Geo, get out of bed at 3, pack up and go to Adays. Observe the Commonwealth Village where Jay worked briefly by driving past at about 80km/h. Struggle to keep Jay in our sights with the absolutely pissing rain the whole way up the eastern freeway. LAN IT UP AT ADAYS

Saturday: Wake up late, have an awesome breakfast thanks to Aday's wonderful, hot, geeky girl Pseudonym. MORE LANNING, including WINNING A QUAKE 3 COMPETITION! OMG! Wo0T! Saturday night, discover that the cat had pissed on our bed. Fuck around till 1am finding something else to keep warm with, retire to panelvan for remarkably comfortable sleep without freezing. (Must be the alcohol that makes sleep in the van hard)

Sunday: Wake up... LAN MORE! Pack up around lunchtime, and head back. Drop things off at various people's houses, and then head off to Ryan's aunt & uncles for a late lunch. Watch 11 children run around screaming looking for easter eggs, all 150 of them. Leave, then head to Monbulk, get to Belgrave and discover the ONLY ROAD through to Monbulk has been closed off. (Apparently a 60 year old lady had a head on and went down the embankment RIP lady) Fuck around more, decide to go around via Olinda... travel up the hill the entire way in 3rd gear with the delightful smell of roasting brakes. Finally arrive at mums, scab chocolate, have egg & bacon sandwiches and listen to the boys admiring various cars. Leave there, and head back via Lilydale. Once back there, we had to arrange blankets for our bed and finally go to sleep... what a lovely sleep in that was till 12.

Monday (yesterday): Finally get up and bugger around for a while, then decide to ring a few people, and go meet Ryan's dad for coffee. Enjoy (?) the most abysmal chicken pie (with canned peas in it) I have ever had the (dis)pleasure of eating. Realise that we haven't seen his grandparents in quite some time, visit them, have a coffee and observe the lame bird that keeps comign to the house for scraps of cheese. Be reminded that it is his cousin's birthday and go aroudn to say happy birthday. Recieve and SOS SMS from Jamie saying he's broken his computer, head up there to fix it. Ryan also wants to buy this snare drum Jamie has and so we looked at that as well. Get back in time to realise we've missed dinner, and drive around for another half an hour deciding what we don't want to eat and ending up with Hungry Jack's and Bundy. Settle into bed early to watch Wayne's World (IT HAS MEAT LOAF IN IT - betchya didn't know that) and a fe Stargate Atlantis eps.

PHEW! Busy weekend huh? This must be my longest entry ever! And then the next two weekends, my party, more LANNING the Nickelback concert, and yet more LANNING thrown in, not to mention Meg's arrival from Townsville, another public holiday (ANZAC Day) my blog should be full of exciting rambles!

Happy Easter everyone, I'm off to eat more chocolate.
