Making good use of the big TV
Russ is working at my house today, so we are making use of the big tv.
Makes seeing huge wbs diagrams much easier.
Home Alone
Well in 6 hours I will be. Tomorrow morning Laurel and Kahurangi fly out towards Pittsburgh. It’s going to be a long series of flights, thats the trouble with booking a flight using airpoints, they route you the most retarded routes. It’s even more retarded coming back, but they should have a lot fun while they are there and that’s the main thing.
So it will be just the pets and I for 3 week which the cat will be happy about as now Kahurangi is crawling his main obsession is trying to grab her. I’d imagine a few nights on the couch watching the rugby will be had, as well as more takeaways than is healthy being consumed.
Factually correct, but yet not that informative.
Yesterday on my way to meet Mason and Russ to work in the Newtown Library, I walked past one of the many Chinese restaurants in Newtown. It was closed and had a sign letting people know that.
Due to some reasons we will be closed until the 17th.
I was glad to know they weren’t closed for no reason, but I’m now curious what the reasons are.

“ Tickets for the concert cost $10 and are available from New Zealand Red Cross, Trade Aid, Real Groovy Records, Cuba Street, and Kwanzaa, The Afrikan Shop, Manners Street, Wellington. “

I don’t know Karate, but I know Karazy
And today was one of the more crazy days. I ended up jumping on a train and heading 1.10 hours north and then sitting in a cold machine room watching raid arrays build.
I actually do know some karate, but it’s been a long time.
A most kiwi breakfast
So I was meeting Russ at the library this morning, but It didn’t open until 10am. So I had a nice NZ breakfast, a steak and cheese pie and a double shot latte.
