Another busy weekend....
I always mean to write in this more often, but lately I've been too busy actually LIVING to get around to it, you know? but then you forget how you felt when things happened, which is why you're keeping the journal in the first place!
So. Thursday you would not believe it - my wallet disappeared somewhere between starbucks and work. I haven't decided yet whether someone stole it out of my bag, whether it fell out, or WHAT, because I have been super, extra, outrageously careful. Mum and I decided that it was cursed, and when you think about it, I should have totally gotten rid of it after the second loss-and-return. I figured 3rd time this has happened, I'm totally unlikely to have it returned!
So. Personalised starbucks with $40 on it
$40 gift card for myers gone! all my various cards and my student id and my NEW LISENCE THAT I ONLY JUST RENEWED WITH A HALF DECENT PHOTO. Sigh. I've replaced that and the new photo is awful!
Anyway. I went and bought a new one in the sales from Oroton - $195 down to $135 - I figure if the last one really was cursed, then oroton aren't the kind of company that would stand for that kind of things from their goods, LOL, so maybe it will be ok. It's also cream, so it doesn't match the interior of my bag - which is perfect - I think I used to assume that my wallet was in there, since it was the same colour as the inner lining of the bag - when in reality it wasn't!
The whole 'losing my wallet for the 3rd time in as many months' thing is really getting old, so I hope this is the last time for the next 50 odd years! if ever! It was so humiliating, my credit ran out and I couldn't get home with no money, so I had to call my sister using 1800 REVERSE (reverse charges number) on a payphone! I haven't had to do that since I was about 13 years old, LOL.
Luckily, Anna was coming into the city anyway, so she gave me some money to get home.
Then Friday we had a work meeting and I told my boss that I may be going overseas for my internship!!! She was really gracious about everything, so I was really really relieved.
Saturday I went for lunch with W at Parramatta, we had Oporto's chicken burgers next to the river. It was really quite nice. I wast hinking, since he had to get a flight today (sunday) I would have lunch, and leave him to pack and relax on saturday night, but in the end, I spent over 12 hours with him, chatting and shopping and eating and such. I had a really lovely time, even though I was massively tired this morning.
Then today, Sunday, I had coffee with mum quickly at Randwick, and then Anna collected me for barefoot lawnbowls at Clovelly. It was awesome! such good weather... the girls and their boys showed up, and so did some of Anna's friends, and W came after the go-karting party he went to this morning, having won first prize, hehe! Anyway, Celia and I bbqed, and then everyone ate and drank beer and bowled and it was heaps of fun! I better start saving now for my retirement - I'm so going to join a bowling club! It was crazy, we saw a wild rabbit too!
Then we went on to the Clovelly Hotel and had dinner, and then Anna drove me back home, after having a quick coffee at coogee beach.
When we got back, Willum [who didn't seem to have eating much last night, and was kind of lethargic all day] didn't seem any better, so we took him to the 24 hour emergency vet in Crowsnest. They decided they'd like to keep him in under observation last night, so that they can feed him up and make sure he's hydrated. I'm really worried about him, and more than that, I really, really miss him - he usually clomps around his cage or sits on my feet, near my chair... I just miss him, even though it's only one night. I guess that's why I'm writing this - I'm really tired but I just can't sleep!
Anyway, we should get a call early tomorrow from the specialist rabbit vet who'll tell us what might be wrong with him.
I should probably go and try to sleep - he's going to be calling us at 8:00am! eek!
lots of love,
Rosie

That sucks about your purse. Luckily I have not had that happen to me yet - neither lost nor stolen, but I can imagine how horrible it would be and how lost it would make you feel. The worst part is probably replacing your ID, and bank cards and everything.
As for the rest of the post - you are one busy woman.. I feel tired just reading it!
