Well well, my brother has disconnected my internet

Well he has a connection but my wireless is left hanging. Seems I'll need to find my own provider. So it was the router (sp?) that was broken, so he's waiting to get a new one. Of course it helps to answer me when I ask whether I need to get my own connection rather than ignoring me. Fun living at home isn't it? So currently I'm at the Morrin's checking email and such.

Annual Leave has started! woooohoooo!

Cardiology Christmas party wasn't too bad although I was worried it bored Phil to death. Which is quite possible considering all the jargon and in-jokes that were spoken. So Il Punto isn't too bad really, I wouldn't mind trying some pizzas there, real woodfire oven pizzas in Liverpool. I smelt like smoke coming back. So entree was antipasti: mussels, prawns, capsicums, salami, ham, mozzarella, olive tapenade, wood-fired bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Mains were garlic prawns spaghetti, and eyefillet with broccolini, mash with red wine jus. Dessert was pannacotta with strawberries (ooooh yea) and gelati with Italian nougat.

Went grocery shopping in Burwood today, and as I do every year, I am a sucker for cherries, 5kg, well currently 3.85kg at home. So Cat and Leach, feel free. Have lotsa prep work to do on Monday, seems I'm stuck doing all the vegetables for the Yabs party. So I've got kilos of taters, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, snow peas and green beans. And I need to buy some aluminium trays, really not bothered washing.

I picked up my car the other day, all shiny-like now. I had a Yaris courtesy car for the past week. Not bad, high driving position, not a fuel guzzler like the Audi, small, surprisingly roomy. I'm honestly leaning towards a Yaris. But of course, that depends if anyone will insure me. *sigh* Also $500 for excess paid via credit card, yikes, and ME hasn't sent me a bleeding bill yet, I need to pay before it gets overdue!!!

So it seems I am going to Emergency next year, time is uncertain but I am definitely going. Remind me to look up Emergency nursing, Ha! I'll need an internet connection first. So 3 weeks of Annual Leave, baby!! Now for everything I have to do in 3 weeks
