jolly good show

i was waiting for the bus to go through to taekwondo this morning (to say hi and complain about the non-functioning dvds they sold me last year), when i saw my brother drive past, so i called him and got him to stop and give me a ride.

his kid's just been kicked off summer camp for peeing on / in (not clear) the head of his group's trunk. i think that's most amusing, for many reasons.

nobody at taekwondo, so i went to the waterfront for great doughnuts and a quick hunting mission. then i bussed back, got ready, and dragged my nephew out of his shell and we went with my sister's boyfriend to the beach.

very cool afternoon, the wind was a bit annoying, but it is STUNNING muizenberg side. tried to boogeyboard, i'm not very good. i suck, actually. and i came out with seriously hurting inner-ears. after an hour or so we met up with my cousins, and the afternoon was chilling on the beach.

my sister's boyfriend and i dropped off my nephew (who made a real noise until we agreed to let him go), and then farked off to la med for too much beer, and awesome hamburgers. talked a lot, then he dropped me off at home and i went out shoe shopping with my mom.

i don't like shopping, but eventually we found a pair i can deal with. stopped for great coffee, and did quite a bit of ogling (there were some nice women about).

off to my aunt's best friend, who i haven't seen in many years, and had a very pleasant time wrestling their crazy dog while my mom tried on dresses for tomorrow. *just* got back now, about to begin speech-writing for tomorrow morning, and then it's off to bed!
