a bit cloudy

i don't know how, but i managed to pull myself out of bed yesterday at 8.15am to drag on my uniform and get to the university. i'd gotten home really late after the kid, his shag and i discovered absolutely magnificent belgian waffles.

on the way to the bus i stopped by cafeneto for coffee and sunshine. i bussed through to herzeliya, and plodded on to the university. the place is looking great, the new computer science building is really impressive and even on a friday morning there were plenty of students milling around.

i got my papers within five minutes, and spent the next half an hour checking the place out and saying hi. i slogged back into the city center and bought myself chains for my dog-tags, then bussed back home.

my tags look good, but i need to figure out how to give them a border so they won't make as much noise or cut into my chest. i'm thinking of using silicone glue, but aside from having to acquire some, it's not clear how to do it to get the effect i want :S

switching to summer clothing, i went shopping with the kid and then we sat down at cafeneto. i was waiting for sunshine, who got off an hour late, and the kid and i spent that hour therapeutically telling really amusing childhood stories.

when we got back, spot joined us and we did a basic clean of the apartment. during which our neighbour knocked on the door to ask if we wanted to take her coffee table before she threw it away.

so after two months of being annoyed about not having one, we have a really styling one completing our lounge. awesome!

we spent the afternoon watching how i met your mom, lock, stock and two smoking barrels (the kid hadn't seen it, but he still hasn't because he passed out after not being able to deal with the english), the princess bride, and, because we had to laugh about fred savage, an episode of the wonder years.

i fell asleep to my celebrity deathmatch collection, and was woken up by spot just as his birthday came in.

the two of us went to the lincoln with magist for a couple of hours. i was still half asleep when we got there, and the shot and beer didn't improve my situation. the pool was okay, but it's been really long since we last played :/

we walked to the lizard - they were already closed and the mongoose had gone home, and then took a taxi home.
