Da di da...

Wow... it's been more than a month since I last posted... that's to show that not much has happened. Just the last weekend has been a bit 'busier'. On tuesday the TV died. The other LCD tv is fine, just the 'old' CRT tv, which we had for about 6 years, decided to die. So, we weren't basked in the glow of the TV for dinner for 4 days, then Saturday, yesterday, me and mum went to try and get a TV we saw in the ads. 51cm, 20", for $199 at K-Mart. We went to 3 different places to start with, one was closed, then we went to Bing Lee, then Retravision, then finally K-Mart, for Teac's 51cm model, discounted. It's flat screen too. It looks smaller than the other 51cm tv, because of the black bezel, but it's nice and sharp... Anyways, I installed the TV, and then spent some time to muck around, before I left for a friend's birthday party. He turned 30, and I didn't know him that well, but it was his younger sis who set up the party. I did a count at one point, there was around 60 people at the party, and I probably only knew about 10. And it went from 7pm till 12 or something, but I left around 11:30 because most (80%) were already gone by then. Met up with the other camp people (birthday boy was from camp as well) and had a good chat for a while. Then I called up (organised before) my bro, and then he picked me up and we went over to their place. Their parents are overseas, and bro-in-law had 2 friends over and they were playing Fifa 2006 on the Xbox 360. I was too tired to play, so I watched them till they stopped about 3am, and then went to sleep. Woke up about noon today, and bummed around their house, played a couple games of pool, some xbox, and tried to watch TW satellite, but something was wrong with their satellite box, it freezes... should get it fixed. Back to work tomorrow. Another day another dollar.
