Drive my girlfriend to work, maybe nap for a while, waste a large portion of the day, prepare to make dinner, pick up my girlfriend from work, make dinner, eat dinner, drink, sleep.

My only full day off in a while, no way I'm doing anything big :P

Congrats on your anniversary!!! Hope you do something special.

Today, I'm working from 7am - 7pm. Doing the same tomorrow as well. Heaps of pay for it... but the money ain't worth the time I could be spending with my better half.

Hopefully getting some hours up of driving with my Dad today, need to get 120 hours before october next year so i can go for my Ps.

The joys of being a 16 year old, no girlfriend to drive to and from work, no house to clean, no wife to fight with.... Life is great.

Woke up at 10am, breakfast, headed for the gym.
Did 90 mins there and now I'm home to shower and perhaps put some highlights in my hair.
Might see who I can find to beat playing pool, since we have a billiard table at home, and generally waste my day sitting here.

I should vacuum the car as well...

I have been wanting a home made hamburger all week, and generally I make a point of eating meat on Good Friday, just cause I hate being told I can't have any, : but some grilled fish with a caesar salad sounds good. Too bad I'll get stuck with salmon rissoles tonight. :

I use it as an excuse to get fish and chips and eat them on the beach.
A win-win!

Slayed a couple of virgins whilst eating a big juicy steak. Currently reciting the bible backwards.
Will nip out this afternoon and turn a few crusifixes upside down.
