Lucas was painting this morning, and was doing a picture of Amy WInehouse, but had ran out of fluorescent pink paint, so I said I'd try and track some down for him today. I knew there was an Art shop off Chapel Street, and since I needed to go to Chapel Street anyway to collect my work clothes from last night, I went to that one. I spent ages looking round and pretending to be creative enough to buy things from there. I then went into the CBD, and stopped off at...

It was supposed to be my day off today, but they are making a few changes to the burgers and so they wanted us to come in at 10 to try them, and make notes regarding the changes. Most of the changes I thought made them worse than before- the sesame seeds added to the tuna burger sounds like it would be nicer, but you couldn't really notice the difference, they have taken the sweet chilli sauce out of the fish burger and changed the tartare sauce so that it isn't ...

There is a Ben and Jerry's ice cream parlour over the road from the Chapel Street Hooked, and so on my way to work I had noticed they have a new flavour called couch potato- vanilla ice cream with caramel swirls and potato chips, which of course, being me, I had to try.

I didn't particularly want to go to Las Chicas in Balaclava with Samia, Valeria, Alice and Amanda, but felt obliged to because of it being Samia's moving out day.

Dinesh was in quite a jokey mood today at work, which was nice as usually he's a bit...

Not much exciting happened today, apart from I discovered a shop behind Coles that has the same sort of scoop and weigh nuts/ dried fruit/ sweets pick 'n' mix that Coles has, except a lot cheaper- banana chips are $8.90 per kg in Coles, and only $5 something from this place! I got some to eat on my way home back from work, plus some peanut butter pretzels and some chocolate-y liquorice sweets to try (both weren't particularly that great, but still it was exciti...
