Business and Birthdays
Today’s been a little “all over the place”. I woke up at 9:30am (trust me, that’s early folks), and by 10:30 I was out of the house. I went around to a local Indian restaurant and spoke to the owner (whom I’d spoken to briefly last night at dinner) about getting a website up for them. He seems pretty keen, but they’re going on a week’s holiday soon and are currently out of money, so he’s going to contact me when they get back about kicking it all off.
I also went to a little nerdy shop (sells American candies, soft drink, trading cards, etc.) and offered them a website as well. The owner’s wife said he was going to be doing the website, but if he doesn’t have the time or the energy to do it while also running the business, they would be happy to support me as a local business getting off my feet, so that was really lovely.
The rest of the day has been cleaning up the yard for someone’s 21st birthday party next Saturday (I’m not sure who, do you?) and just generally getting things tidy. I haven’t helped much simply because … I can’t. I’ll help Mum paint the new laundry wall when she gets home. Speaking of the party, things are coming together – I have my auntie making my cake, my dad’s cousin doing the DJing, and friends coming from Melbourne, which will be great. The one thing I’m most looking forward to is seeing my sister and her boyfriend – I love them both so much and have missed them heaps, since the last time I saw them was November.
I need to get an outfit situated!!! I might have to go shopping on the Friday before (since that’s Pay Day) and get Michael to buy me a nice top or something. I have nice jeans, but I want a pretty top to go with them. I was thinking a dress, but I don’t normally wear dresses so I thought it best to just wear what I would normally wear. Michael has also, after many problems and emailing back and forth with the seller, bought me a phone off eBay. We originally bought and paid for a pink LG KF600, but the seller was out of stock (don’t ask why they had an option up to buy it if they didn’t have it in stock – I have no idea), but I settled on a pink LG KS360 (more photos, the last two are the colour I’m getting), which is very different, but just as nice. And since I usually text rather than call anyway, it’s probably more ideal for me. But I really needed a new phone since I’m starting up this busniess – my Motorola Razr V3 just doesn’t cut it any more.
Anyway, I think that’s enough rambling from me today, otherwise I’ll have nothing to write tomorrow!
