Hey, Tuesday. Pig 'n a Poke!

[katysam]

Oh, boy. I've only got 22 minutes to get my Tuesday Pig 'n a Poke post in. The timestamp totally says 11:38pm. I call that a win!

• Went to the first Melbourne Storm game of the NRL season last night. It was hotter than hell in the stadium and I swear the game went for about four hours.
  (Un-exaggerated translation: Probably only a muggy 35°c in the stadium and the game was the usual 80 minutes long.)
  EDIT: Final Score Melbourne Storm 32 New Zealand Warriors 18.
  
  
• I bought a new camera on the weekend. My old Kodak Compact died last week so I got a teeny tiny little Olympus to replace it. It's kind of awesome because I can just throw it in my bag.
  
  
  
  Wouldn't you know it. The clearest picture is the one where I'm pulling the stupid face.
  
  
  Please pretend this photo isn't blurry.
  
  
  My Storm Tattoo. It's on my right shoulder so I can't really see it. This was the first time I've seen it properly. That second 'E' there is a bit dodgy o_O So is the 'R'! Yikes ;)
  And seriously! How many freckles do I have on my shoulder???
  
  
  Saturday night I met Mum, Dad, my sister, brother-in-law, niece and nephew at The Pancake Parlour for dinner. This is a photo of what was my dinner - 'Breast of Chicken with hollandaise sauce.' (The creamy coloured ball is the sauce. No, I did not have ice-cream on my chicken!)
  Disclaimer: Dinner may taste better than it looks.
  
  
  Before dinner Mum, Dad, my sister, brother-in-law, niece and nephew went to Melbourne Zoo to see the Choir of Hardknocks perform. My mum bought me home a tiger :)
  
  
  The dude on the left is Matty Geyer, the oldest player on the Melbourne Storm team. The dude on the right is Cooper Cronk, the player with the BEST name in the history of Melbourne Storm EVER!
  
  
  
• Two more days of work and then an extra long weekend. FTW! One thing I've discovered at my new job is ... it's hard work, working for a living. I knew I had it easy for the previous three years but this past three weeks have been a real eye opener. I rarely get time to do more than refresh my flist once or twice a day, let alone post. I feel so out of touch. Fancy working cutting into my internet time. It's just not right.
  
  
• munibunny is probably relaxing on the beach right about now on her mini-vacation. *is jealous* Is there room on that beach for me? I renewed my passport the other day and I'm fully prepared to use it :D
  
  
• And in a few days bobbinrob leaves for her Excellent Adventure in California and Florida. Jared and Jim and Steve, Oh My! *is jealous*
  
  
• Hi to everyone on my flist studying hard at Uni or School. You get days off school soon! \O/ Hang in there.
  
  
• I finally posted Batch #2 of my Goonies icons. Only 46 more to go. Thank goodness for the long weekend.
  
  
• It's bed time.
