Which is a much celebrated day in Aus with lots of chocolate giving O_o
So yes, more chocolate ofr easter than I've had in years...! Bad skin here we come!

Phrases only used to convince random unknowledgables of how amazing the product is. Except to the more... literate individual, it's rather hilarious.

"The chinese I Ching "The beginning of everything." "

Erm... NO! The I Ching, is the BOOK OF CHANGES! It has NOTHING to do with magnetism or magnetic metals, it's a book of symbols! 

Even the birthstones were off; december is not turqoise! It's Onyx, Ruby or I think Zircon, not turqoise...

"We trade in your gold, but not your silver. I'm not sure why but I think it has to do with the chemicals, that silver has too much chemicals in it to be reused, I think that's as close as I'll get in explaining it in lame terms."

I was SO hoping I had misheard her say that, but Bexx heard it too. lame. Yep, very lame. but I do believe hse meant LAYMEN terms. But no, by all means remark on how hard my accent is... x_X

Regardless, I managed to sit through the bullshit even did the good deed to buy something ("It will be custom made especially for you! Is it okay if you have it before hte weeks out?" Fastest delivery ever? Or od I sense some utter bullshit there?)

SO yes... it was an interesting evening... At least there was food and the people attending were nice... except the weird saleslady...
 

"I want you to just play around with all the rings."

"It comes off much easier if it's stiff."  

It was a challenging night, the boys were not helping...

Did some laundry because the wet towel smell was getting in the way of my NaNo muses, so soon the flooding of the washing machine will be nothing but a distant memory once I go and attack the bathroom floor with a bleach like substance. *channels Daniel* Werewolves need not complain of the smell of bleach because I will beat them with it.
Still need to do a few more loads of laundry before that though...

As for NaNo, I'm slooowly creeping back up on the word count. Almost ALMOST at 8K now... need 10K by the end of the day. I can bloody well do this! *puts on srs bizniz face*

Unless I do decide ot make idnner in which case I shall have to postpone my hardcore writing until later this evening after my darling husband roommate comes home from work.

The saga continues in edit2:

We went to see the ponies... I had hopes of riding Trev and Emma but Trevor is too fat to wear tack and since I felt bad for Bexx standing around watching I figured I'd give her a lesson on William, but then it started to rain and just sorta never stopped anymore.

So mght get some riding done later on in the week since Bexx has a full week of work ahead of her... Hopefully we'll get some pictures taken then...

Aaaand am already behind LOTS on my NaNo was supposed to write tonight but meh... will spend most of tomorrow writing probably. Might need to find myself some junkfood first though somewhere in this odd little town. Which reminds me I need to do some financing and moving around of moneys... and I still owe money t oa friend...

Note to self; do finances...

The flight was uneventful... had a wee bit of turbulance over europe but that was all... and the guy sitting next to me climbed oer my chair (stepping on the armrests and everything) everytime i tried to sleep. Becuase I'd refused to sleep at what was 2pm inthe afternoon for me as the plane said i should...

I tried to NaNo... did some NaNo... but since the muses crappd out when i opened my laptop I wasted most of the batteries on playing pokemon... aaaand i got about 1300 words on the laptop which won't live ofr me just yet... and a whole page of long hand but lack of elbow room kinda buggered me over on both accounts.

Aaand thne i arrived at Kualal Lumpur hihc was ridiculously easy to navigate... thanks to the lovely plus shaped construction of it...so I wandered around wanted to buy these awesome looking ramen at an actual ramen shop but they didn't speak english very well at all so I didn't know if they would accept either of my types of mickey mouse moneys... plus i had no idea what the hell they were all chucking in there and the concept of vegetarianism seemed ot puzzle them most of all... so I thanked them ofr the info and continued on... lacking ramen noodles sadly... I shall try again on my return flight.

Then got back on the plane which all went a lot quicker than at Amsterdam because much less phobia I'd bring a bomb to Perth than to Kuala Lumpur apparently... wherei  had ot unpack everything at schiphol I could leave everything in the bag at KL and no one cared... boarded wit ha whole lot of poms all coming from england and a bunch of asians so I was about the only dutch person left... aaand flew ot Perth whih was more uneventful.. ended upwatcing the kiddy movies of the inflight entertainment set because I'd seen all the others just baout. Can recommend Jack and Jill for those curious, it was actually kinda good but it's a girly sorta movie but not overly so... just niiice movie..

Got to Perth I figured I'd be quick try ot beat them all got stuck in the aisle at ifrst then when i was out made up ofr the loss by speedhicking past the tiny tiny asian people and the short chubby poms. Got fairly quickly ot thep assport check breezed through that headed ot the carrousels of baggage claim and spend 40 minutes waiting for the conveyer belt to evne start moving and spewing bags. There went my headstart. There was another flight arriving at the same time so the queue to customs was getting fucking EPIC. It took me another 30 minutes or so for my bag ot finally get to me.

Then into the queue for customs, i brought strawberry sugar water for Bexx which needed hcecking when they saw i was a horse trainer they wanted to see my horse equipment... i'd oly brought my spurs but since thye were used they needed treatment whihc would cost 30 dollars hiwle i can buy new ones for the same price os I told them to just chuck them... too bad, 'tis a shame because they were nice but oh well.. shit happens.

Found bexx fairly quickly because Perth is a tiny airport... her brother gave us a ride home, I dragged my stuff into my room got the tour "And this is your room it smells of wet carpet."  and that WAS the tour of the place... =P

Then i walked around a bit to stretch my legs while not killing my knees and Bexx did some laundry and then we headed off to the ponies! And I met Trev and WIll and Emma and the shitty litle pony who hasn't got a name i think and Baby the shetland
and i ended up riding Will.. how was... amusing, sooo amusing haha. And everyone came to see him trot because OMG! he was trotting! 

Had a talk about him and the other horse,s helped Bexx walk him around a bit but he'd already worked pretty hard and scared Bexx by trying to toss me... Ended up staying there until almost 9pm.. at hiwhc point we realized we didn't have much food so bought out the gasstation with junkfood... and while Iwas supposed ot og to bed early to seriously beat jetlag we ended up chatting nad talking until like 4am... then wnet ot bed where I fought wit hsheets and pillows (or lackthereof) and awoke at 10:30... but my body was in denial and went "nuuu!" and slept on until 11:40 or so... and now I'm here!

It took me 20 minutes ot make my sandwich(which is defrosting painfully slowly) and 2 minutes ot break into Bexx' laptop... xD

Oh and it RAINED! Yesterday and again today! I picked hte coldest bloody day to arrive at it was only 24 degrees and today it looks grey and dreary...! D8
I brought rain wiht me!

No cut, I'm lazy, deal with it. And i do think I beat jetlag... buahahaha!
 

Five hours till I fly....! 

Here's to hoping no planes will drop fro the sky for hte next week or so!

Mood: One part mortified. One part stupidly excited. One part sad.
