EEEEEEEE Madscot! Your parcel came! *snugs you madly* Took a bit, but that's because the address for some reason was #45 instead of #25 o.O OURS NOW, REGARDLESS. *pets da bear* ATM he's sitting on the battery charger and wearing a hat.

Pinky decided to throw another sick fit last night. This one was pretty damned bad - we honestly thought we were going to lose her. To the extent that I ended up at one point having to do a modified version of EAR to help her clear her lungs out. Took a lot of work to get at least some of the perpetual crap in her lungs out, then she kipped down with me while I dozed on and off, fussing over her.

So of course I went to sleep with an exhausted rat after a huge non-breathing fit, and woke up with a hyper rat who had clambered off the couch, wizzed under it, and eaten all the custard. And clawed the shit out of me.

For my part, I woke up with screaming allergies, but a cheeky pinky. So it's a win. So I picked her up and snugged back down under the couch, sneezing and honking and watching a couple eps of King of the Hill while she stuck her head in my clevage and bruxed madly

Tooled up and hit southland. No greenhouses at Aldi. Bastards. But I did pick up a shitton of meat. For those of you unaware, we have a vacuum sealer. We also have a standalone freezer. We also have a tasman meats nearby, so every 3-6 months (depending on consumage) I trot up to Tasman and get about 10-15kg of MEAAAAAT that is then parcelled down to dinner sized portions, sealed and frozen. ( If you have a Tasman near you btw, hit them up. Six gigantic heart shaped schnitzels for $10 atm). Also many, many tins of chopped and pureed tomatos. My arms hate me, but we have a full meat drawer and steak and hash browns for din dins, so fuck 'em.

Also picked up some much-needed baffies *strokes them* and grit my teeth and got some new bras. I farkin' hate bra shopping. It's bullshit expensive - due to the ridiculous disparity 'twixt chest and tit, I usually end up having to go to Bras n things or Myer because they're the only damned stores that have ones in my size (10/12 E) and they charge you out the clacker for them. (But at least I know I'm getting damned well $50 of material out of them. HA!) Also snagged some more housey odds n ends and plates for reception.

[livejournal.com profile] torasin is puttering about the house and fussing over Pinky. Neither of us got much sleep last night, and he's been feeling a bit off, so he took the day off work rather than end up sneezing all over the wedding guests on sat :P I do like having him home though *snuggles*

Tomorrow: Nails, hair, faffy shit, and find some hose. Going to ridiculously poncify about southland again with [livejournal.com profile] moonmip, and pick up a basket for my USB keys. And some sawhorses I saw at Aldi but couldn't bring home because I couldn't get a friggin' trolley due to no coinage on my person *shakes fist at locked trolley bays* And probably some more Kaiserdom for [livejournal.com profile] torasin if he likes the samples I brought home today - $4 a litre, and his beer forums do praise it, so I nabbed him a couple cans, and if he likes, shall fetch more tomorry *nods*

*putter puttery putter*

I wrote 45? Idiot me. Did the other parcel show us yet? Was shipping direct from the company?

Bra shopping is evil.

The bear looked like your handwriting on the addy, nothing else from the UK as of yet. But I'm viewing auspost with deep suspicion atm because they've been dodgy as fuck of late.

Damn. Was ordered on 21 April to ship directly to you (even got the house number right on this one). Will contact them tomorrow and see what's happening.

BRA SHOPPING HOW I HATE THEE. Seriously. It should not take me TWO FUCKING HOURS to find bras that fit me. I don't have that mother fucking time at all. Period.

Poor Pinky and poor allergies.

What's Kaiserdom? I'm always looking for a beer for the mister, but he tends to favor wheaty, summery beers.
