Treck No. 2
Since today was a Saturday, and Saturday is the day of general slobbishness for the unemployed, I took my slothy butt out for a walk to Morrissons.
Looks like a bit of a treck, but it actually only took me 20 minutes (have to admit, I was a little disappointed since I wanted a proper, long and rejuvenating - ha! - stroll). However, I did lengthen the treck up and down the isles trying to find some Soy Sauce. I thought about asking one of the shop floor people, but they all looked younger than me and far too stressed for their age, so I thought I'd carry on my quest alone. Eventually I found it with the noodles, and, after grabbing a tasty-looking loaf of granary bread, some cereal, too many carrots and some sesame oil, I trecked home again. I actually saw some interesting places that I'd like to go exploring, but they're not the kind of places you'd really go alone. Unless you're asking someone to stalk you and bury you later in the bushes.
To add to the continuing saga of the house, I gave up being scared of the mouldering washing machine and decided to wash my clothes today. This would have been fine and dandy if the washing machine actually spun your clothes. However, it doesn't seem to have a spin cycle, and it doesn't really seem to do much whirly stuff during the cycle you set it on, so, consequentially, I have some very soggy clothes that aren't going to be dry for about a week. But hey, that's ok, because that's when I'll be doing my next lot of washing :)
I have to show this off:
This was my rather tasty salad I had for dinner yesterday. Just looking at the picture makes me want to have salad again. THAT is how good that salad was.
In fish news, Kai seems to have injured himself somehow (he has a scrape on his back). I got a bit worried that it was something more serious, since he looked a bit under the weather compared to Pips (but hey, Pips is always hyper, so it can't be hard to look knackered next to him), but I'm keeping an eye on it, and as long as it doesn't get infected, he'll be back to his old self soon. Both fishes seem to be deciding to finally live up to their names (they're Comets) and seem to enjoy zooming about their tank now, which is very funny to watch.
