'Olympics this, Olympics that. Sometimes I think the Olympics were sent to test us'
I'm really tired. I just got home after getting off the bus from Brisbane. I was incredibly grateful for my foresight in thinking of getting a discman for the trip. I'm also grateful that WOW Sight and Sound sells excellent discmans for $50.
Brisbane is ace. There's no other way of putting it. Mark's house is tres fancy, and I'm foreshadowing that I'll be visiting/living there every other week when I have the time.
After all this time, I actually had a taste of what it's like to be a Uni bum.
Basically it consists of wandering around aimlessly through Brisbane and such, and having fun!
...I am so full. Today I managed to plow my way through a large Hungry Jacks Double-whopper meal, a regular Cold Rock Lemon, Mango and boysenberry shake, and a large KFC Zinger Burger Combo.
and a thing of noodles from Noodle City.
So full.
Anyhow. We arrived in Brisbane about 21:30, and then played Halo for a couple hours. Mark had never played it on Legendary before [gasp!], only on easy.
So, me being me, I treated him to the hilarious insanity of Assault on Control Room on Legendary.
Around then, Lydia showed up, and promptly tackle-hugged the 4'5" inflatable penguin I got Mark and his brothers for their swingin' bachelor pad. She talked with us for a while, grabbed something for her sis and went back home again.
The details are vague, but I remember him cracking open Halo 2 and playing it on easy for the first couple of levels. [Laughably easy. Running around and slapping people to death easy], and blowing stuff up.
I went to bed around 2:30, and woke up around 11.
We wandered around town after watching a couple episodes of Family Guy . I bought Lydia her 18th present from an AG we found, and I had a wee shufti to see what job prospects there were there. The assistant manager was really helpful and such.
What else? Ah yes, we missed our train by 5 seconds and as such, we were 15 minutes behind. So in the end, we got to Indooroopily, I gave Lydia her pressie while she was at work, and we then had to sprint to Mark's place, only to figure out that I missed my train, lol.
Luckily Matt, Mark's brother, was on hand, and he kindly dropped me off at the bus terminal at Roma St Station.
I sign in and wait for my bus to come, so I go downstairs to grab something to eat, only to find the very hot, and short, Linette working at the KFC. So we talked for a while, inbetween customers, and these two American guys show up.
They ask for a Cricket Box each, which [for those not in the know] contains 4 600ml drinks, 20 pieces of chicken, large chips, potato and gravy and coleslaw.
lol, their reasoning being, 'we're really hungry now and besides, we can eat the rest over the next few days.'
After they ordered, I realised the time and waved to Linette. In between grabbing drinks, she said, 'wait up, I'll give you my number,' something I completely forgot to do.
While she was writing her mobile number down on a napkin for me, I happened to see the expressions on the two American guy's faces, they were completely gobsmacked. I said 'thanks gorgeous, I'll give you a call.' She said, 'I'll see you around, tell me when you come down again!'
All completely innocuous to us, but to those guys it must have looked as though I had just picked her up, lol.
All very flattering, but I've known Linette for a couple of years now, and both Deyve and I have played the silly game typical of six year olds, 'Linetter hugged me more! Nyeh!'
lol
So after all this, I go upstairs and head for my bus, only to see Naomi, an AG workmate, standing, waiting for a later bus. Completely surprising.
In Toowoomba you can go for fifteen minutes without seeing anyone you know, if you're lucky. Mark said to me that while in Brisbane, he hasn't seen a single soul he knows.
lol, and then we walk down from the food court in Indooroopily, straight past Jeorge's parents.
Completely nuts.
Anyhow, I'm tired, I wished I stayed overnight, but I have work tomorrow.
..I wanted to go to the pool party...
G'night.
