My feet should be so happy...

...that I seem to enjoy shopping a little too much.
2 new pairs of shoes within 2 weeks of my return to Sydney (despite buying a whole load of stuff on my 4 week long break)




Sway

This song reminds me of Singstar sessions on the PS2...which then reminds me of Jojo and Glor, who bought me one of the Singstar games.



Bic Runga - Sway

Don't stray, don't ever go away
I should be much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes, when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you, pull me out in time
Don't let me drown, let me down
I say it's all because of you
And here I go, losing my control
I'm practicing your name so I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right, to look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time to tell you why
I say it's infinitely true

[CHORUS:]
Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way, yeah I need to know
All about you

And there's no cure, and no way to be sure
Why everything's turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired - I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it all turns sour
Come sweeten every afternoon

[CHORUS TWICE]

It's all because of you
It's all because of you

Now it all turns sour, come sweeten every afternoon
It's time to tell you why, I say it's infinitely true

[CHORUS TWICE]

It's all because of you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you

Mussels and beer

Back from dinner and drinks at the Belgian Beer cafe with a couple of colleagues and the secondees from the US and UK offices. Almost walked into oncoming traffic as I mistakenly assumed the road was one-way when I was trying to get to a cab. Anyway, the cab ride was $72 and I don't think I can claim that as I haven't really been working too much overtime these few days. Ah well....will need to bring the others back to try the mussel pots (half price on Wed nights!) as well as the array of beers...

Thought my skin was looking a bit tired so slapped on a mask (Origins mask for problem skin...one of the three which I bought at duty free). It's a bit menthol-ish so my eyes are feeling very erm...refreshed. Hopefully it helps my skin look less tired and sluggish! Or maybe should just drink more water and eat lotsa fruit. Hahaha.

So now I have to sit here and wait for the mask to set before rinsing it off.

Hmm. Tempted to put a DVD on but I think I would just kill myself....3 hours of sleep last night almost did me in today. So maybe I should try to sleep a little more tonight.

And crap. There's a meeting at 8.30 AM tomorrow! Argh. SO much for more sleep...

Word of the Day

Hmm. At work now but I am so bloody tired I can't function properly....time for a break.

Dictionary.com Word of the Day - vituperate: to overwhelm with wordy abuse.
Nothing like a random MSN conversation to end the night off...

We Need A Thing says (1:36 AM):

We Need A Thing says (1:36 AM):

We Need A Thing says (1:37 AM):

We Need A Thing says (1:37 AM):

D o r e e n says (1:37 AM):

D o r e e n says (1:37 AM):

We Need A Thing says (1:39 AM):

We Need A Thing says (1:39 AM):

We Need A Thing says (1:39 AM):

Random late night post

I will definitely suffer for this tomorrow...I can't sleep!

Actually I was in bed trying to get some zzzzz...but somehow managed to cough myself awake. Dragged myself out of bed to look for my lozenges and as a result I can't get back to sleep :(

Probably doesn't help that I don't actually turn the PC off so it's just convenient to get back online.
Well, since I'm here I'll post links to photo albums on facebook (for those who aren't on facebook). Actually I don't think anyone would really care but doesn't matter....just trying to kill some time :)
