Pilates

Forgot to bring the Iphone to the pilates class. Apart from the Nazi instructor it was ok. Lots of leg exercises by doing lunges on the pilates machine.  NOt sure it is my "cup of tea" but I think I will try again soon.

Dentist today (wow HH your life is so exciting!!!!) and no new fillings!!!! :) Me happy. 

I need to buy a new phone card to I can "ET phone home".

I have also decided to start saying stupid quotes all the time, specifically where it doesn't make sense. Today is "Hope is not a strategy" and it doesn't make senses to say that here.

Monday - I hope this isn't a sign of what the week will look like

Monday morning started ok. Well as ok as it can start when you have to go up at 6.50am... we returned the car and didn't get any discount for getting a 3 door car after ordering a 5 door car. Muppets!!!

Work was "Issues, issues & Issues". May be because I have to run an issues meeting at the moment. 

Lunch was at the new lunch place we found last week, and I had Bibimbap...(Nope, I don't know how to spell it). So nice.

ON the way home MW and argued because I was ten minutes late...can you imagine how often I would be angry if I did that to him. He has apologized now so he did get dinner :)

I need to start looking at the Swedish women in Sydney funds...as I am the CFO (ok, it is called treasurer but CFO sounds better). I could think of other things that are more fun.

Might squeeze in some wii!!!!!!!!

Tomorrow, I am going to try Pilates for the first time. I'll tell you more tomorrow evening.

I got 192m

But then failed badly...

an update and I'm googling

Hellooooo,

AT the moment there is a lot of Internet stuff. Marre and I are trying to order the dresses we may wear to Lina's wedding. If they look good IRL.

I have also spent most evening trying to find the grey waistcoat that Lisa Butcher (from "what not to wear") wore in the episode with sportswomen. Can't find it and want it!!!!

This week:
Well, Monday was Yoga. Today was dinner at home and Internet
Wednesday: On my own. MW is out listening to customer research for the new ad. Maybe I will try and beat My brother's skijumping record: 366m and a single jump was 192m. Amazing
Thursday: Going out to a new restaurant in the city called Rockpool bar & Grill
Friday: relaxing and not going out drinking as
Saturday: Driving to Hunter Valley with Henrik and Petra. Wine tasting and cheese eating
Sunday: back to Sydney 

that is it for tonight!

Mw a tennis pro

Can you beleive it. He is a pro now and my skill level is 0.

Sweden vs Australia

Golden gaytime vs 88:an

Ok, gaytime may be a funnier name but nothing beats 88:an. And I
thought for a minute it was the same icecream.
Sweden: 1
Australia: 0

Swedish meatballs for dinner

Saturday and we are home. Yep, I think we are getting old. Cooked some Swedish meatballs after MW asked for it.  

Now at 10pm I realise why we are home. Some stupid football game that MW wants to watch. So, I am left to use the computer for the evening.

Today we have not done much, slept for a long time, breakfast at Laneway (as the previous photo), went to the gym and done the weekly food shop.

Tomorrow I get to go to Chatswood to do some proper shopping, thinking a black pair of work shoes (as the last pair I bought wasn't really work shoes), a book and maybe something else.

At the gym

A little strech before the body pump. Mw is doing spin.

Breakfast at laneway

Forgot to tell you about my new age!

You calculate what that is!!!

Champion but

Still not as good as my last record at 340m

Sunday chores

Sunday: rained this morning when we woke up. Off to Coles for this week's grocery shop and then time for food making!!! Quiche (again) this week. I am so lucky that MW doesn't require different food every week.

Read an interesting article in the newspaper. Relationships last longer if you have the same education (or similar level I think it was) and the same religion, or as close as possible. Atheists, Buddhists and Christians are the best combinations. No surprises here. And it finished with saying that men are more annoying that women (based on that more women request divorces I think). I totally agree with that...even if I must say that women (read: me) are pretty annoying too.

Wii time now. Need to get my technique perfect so I can start my new ski jumping career,

My new shoes

Ivy Again

I went out for a little drink today after work, again!!! I think this will worry my mum, but I am not becoming a member of AA. Chris Harvey came into town so Georgina, Dan and I went to the Ivy for a quick catch up.

After that I was suppose to walk down to MW's office and meet him for dinner. Managed to by a lovely pair of shoes on the way. Photo will be uploaded in a minute.

Marcus - I think I know the trick (not that it was a trick) so I will this weekend try and get at least 350m!!!!! Or More...but I need to see if the online help is correct as it wasn't any brain surgery tips.

Tired

Another day at work.....

Went for a nice lunch at Sky phoenix and had Yum Cha with Henrik, Petra and some friends of theirs.

Didn't go to the gym...building up a layer of fat...not good. But as I got home I went on the Wii and my age today was -4 years. That is good.

And I am trying to beat my brother;s ski jumping record which is 340m. BUt I don't think it is possible in one jump (Victor told me it was in a single jump)...I think he means in "one go" which is 2 jumps. My record then is 344m but I don't seem to be able to get that again. Got 336m today. More practice required.

another day

So, life is back to normal....from being so not normal going to the Logies :)

After work today I went to the Ivy for a few drinks. Now home with MW.

Sleep well.

Today

wake up call at 6.30am...fell asleep again. up at 7.10am and checked-out of the hotel by 7.40am. Driver waiting outside (some star treatment) and took us to the airport. 11am and in the office!

After the very long dinner (It didn't finish until after 23.00) we headed to the bar for a few more. By this time MW was already drunk. Bumped into Michael which was fun. I was now ready for the after party. Our host took us to the channel 9 after party and after 2 check points and stamps we were in (still got one of the stamps on my wrist...). More drinks, some food (yeah and we actually had more food..it is like the belly monster doesn't know when to say no). MW was now not able to have a conversation and the eyes were just half open. Before we left I had a little chat to Carson (from queer eye for the straight guy). My celebrity moment!

It was fun, but you know what. It isn't so fabulous to be a celebrity. They had to queue up to walk the red carpet (and so did we) and that makes it a little less amazing. 

Will upload some more photos tomorrow, like my photo of Jennifer Hawkins as she was queueing up with us (ok, not really with us but very close to us)

Make a bet!

This guy lost every single bet he made......didn't get a single logies correct.

Loo break, let me back in

Please

Awards time (logies)

Us on the red carpet!!!

Benji is just behind us but you can't see him.

Time to go!

Off to Melbourne

Bags are packed and it is time to go. Flying to Melbourne at 1pm today so there may be a little time to look in the Melbourne shops and see how I can spend Kevin Rudd's $900 (on Australian brands of course).  I've got so much stuff with me (going straight to work on Monday so all work stuff is with me as well) and I am still hoping on just clearing with hand luggage....

Yesterday was another of those days in the office. It isn't bad but I'm not doing the stuff that I like, but it is a good team so I shouldn't complain. 

I'll upload some Melbourne photos when I am there and see if I can snap any celebrities (not that the Iphone and dark rooms go well together).
