Wristbands

For years now I have had permanent attachments on my wrists and yesterday one came off. After a while they tend to wear away, especially since I play with them, and the one on my right wrist fell off in my hand last night at work so I had to chuck it in the bin. It's so strange having nothing there! On my left wrist I have two of those rubber bands you get from companies or organisations, one of which is from Greening Australia [it used to say "I'm Greening Australia" but it's almost worn off], the other is from the Breast Cancer society, and the other is a the Falls Festival ticket wristband I've had on since possibly NYE 2005-06. My friend Jessi started the tradition when she tied a bit of light brown leather around my wrist one time when I was staying over at her house. I love having them there. I need to get something else to replace the one I've lost. It's on my to-do list.

I also want to get another mp3 player, preferably a Sony Walkman like the one I have misplaced. If I find the one I have, I'll see how much it'll cost to get fixed as I'd just get the same one because I know and love the design. I'm not into iPods so I won't even go there, despite trialling the iPod Touch a while ago. One is going to cost around $100 and I don't think I should be spending such money right now, especially since I won't be earning much before I head away. Drat that by they way. I have been given more "on call" shifts, which sucks, but I can't do anything about it. I just have to wait and see.

Back on-line at last

This whole daylight savings thing is really messing with me. It feels later than it really is and I'm more tired because of it. It might also be because I haven't been doing much this Easter holiday. I have homework to do, and I always watch some TV series, but not much outdoor activities, which I might have to correct. I will try and get into the routine of going for a walk every day or something. I don't want to waste my life.

The internet is finally working again. Yorick changed the modems so that might have something to do with it. I've missed the internet. It has been a bit of a curse but I'm addicted! I need my fix. I might have to wean myself off some of the games I play. I also need to drink a heap more water, as per usual. That's a bit off topic but there you go.

I bought an iPod Touch today for $244 from Big W. I named her Pixie Pod. I have got an armband case on the way via eBay so I can go running with it. I have always wanted to live near a beach so I can go running on it but I might have to start here on the road and do a loop around the oval. That will have to do. I can wear sunnies if I'm that self-conscious, which I am, but it will be good to get in that routine, especially in Winter aka Autumn.

Yorick and I haven't been too great lately. We barely talk, especially since the weekend. I wanted to get his attention at Gordo's farewell party and he got annoyed at me. Since then we been quiet. It's weird. I like us happy and smiley. Hopefully it gets back to normal soon. I miss getting all excited when he comes home and I run down the stairs yelling our combined name: Tate, short for Taters. I say "Tayyyyyte!" and run down to him and we kiss and hug and talk about our days. Not so much lately though. Sad face.

It's getting cold now so I might jump into bed shortly and start sleeping. I like being back on-line :D
