At Craig's parents in Durras. Really lovely yesterday to play with kangaroos, walk on beach etcetera instead of being at pub. Lovely yet different and new.
Funniest moment was, it seemed, when referred to kangaroos and birds and "stuff one cannot tell what sex it is," also when 20 minutes later was running around house shouting "what is it that you cook in if it's not a frying pan??" in a hysterical voice. Was pot. Craig said english has improved greatly in 5 years. Hmm.
News story out re: diets of pregnant women, and how very dangerous is to consume soft cheese, cold meats but also lettuce, bean sprouts etcetera. Was thinking how bad everything is these days, and how aware we are of it and adapting lives accordingly. But really is weird then, in view of all precautions taken, how children these days are all so ill - with allergies, asthma, obesity and ADD. Back when own generation was being born women would freely drink, smoke, eat salami and brie sandwiches, keep cats and not use baby-seats in cars. Yet somehow - we are mostly fine (atleast physically). Also interesting that Generation X was never told how to say please and thank you, or taught table-manners. Atleast not all of us. This has caused some interesting social conflicts; now that Generation Y is grown up enough to interact with us. Or is just all inside own head?
Anyhow... fridge and washing machine sold, one more week inside empty flat then going to Mia's. Will update blog when there (on awful Kafka-style Apple machine).
To do list:
Clean fridge and washing machine
Pack
See optometrist
Shop for underwear at Target
Get group certificate
Get everyone's email at work
Buy Jenny's book
Spend time at pub with friends
