The proposal is over!

I handed in the Evil Proposal Thursday last week and Jody and I did in fact get facials to celebrate and also for the hell of it. We hen caught a Sydney ferry to Manly and walked on the sand, then ate hot chips (fries) and tomato sauce (ketchup). Some friends came over for dinner (we have been doing a LOT of entertaining lately in an effort to introduce our friends to Jody) and drank champage (fake sparkling white at least) followed by copius amounts of red wine.

Saturday Jody and I went bouldering, which was awesome, with delphine my friend I haven't seen in ages who has transformed from skinny waif into boulder chick 3000 in the past two years, and then back home for a quick meal of stir fried kangaroo and then out to a(nother) meal with Kev and Mikl and us two , then off to Mardi Gras. We bought crates, and through some clever seat stealing by Jody got a brilliant vantage point to watch the parade from.

Sunday we went climbing, Blue Mountains. Back down this hill Sunday night and dinner with my friend Lesley who moved to Canberra but was in Sydney for the day, and some other mutual friends who live nearby. More champage and red wine.

Taday I have started RESEARCHING and its great. Its also my mums birthday, so I baked a cake last night and will deliver this with some flowers this evening. If Jody comes with she will get to experience OUT WEST. I have adequately warned her (not). She'll be OK (if she decides to come).

Congrats on finishing up your proposal, Ness!

We went bouldering at Carter Rock, however, I was really engrossed in nature. Despite the wind, it was a gorgeous day.

No worries re: Carnivale - Ben Hawkins has a similiarty to my ex - the one O introduced mistakenly introduced himself too.

Never was one for a facial per se, but I did get a face massage - oh that was nice!!!

btw, Boer is hot in 80* weather.

Oh and good on ya' for your other sock. I am making a helluva mess with the "love child blanket" I started for O. It seems every now and then a loop is missed and somehow pulled, ergo a gap. Lovely, huh?
