It can only go up from here..

Sometimes the only good thing you can say about a week is that it is over...

In the past week:
  • Our Playstation 3 died (and Sony wants $300 to fix it)
  • Our fridge died (so we have the fridge from the spare house on SB's parents' property)
  • SB was rear-ended by some douche with bald tires and no warrant of fitness (and the police don't care, so now we're waiting on insurance)
  • My car has now decided that it feels like having a seizure as I'm driving along (so needs to be booked into the mechanics)
  • Organised a games night and had a ton of people flake at the last minute, leaving us with an excess of food
Ok, so maybe not the world's worst week, but still a pretty crappy one. I'd like to say that we still had our health but SB has been sniffly all day and I'm still super-run down from being sick and not taking enough time off. After reading some articles today on how to keep relationships solid I decided to perk us both up by planning a surprise date. We had Moroccan for dinner and watched Boy at the movies. Made us both crack up - being kiwi kids in the eighties was a somewhat universal experience and we both know families like this one. Definitely a good pick!

  1. I hear Boy is awesome, really must get around to seeing it!

    Let me chime in. Have been sick. Got rearended too, luckily by a real estate agent who gave T her card and actually got onto her insurance fairly quickly. Went to Lone Star for a birthday celebration and everyone's meals were SO big - there was so much wastage. (We let early - hope someone took the leftovers home). And work was crap this week, but thankfully the week is over.
