Some people might have had concerns about adding tuna to rice with soy sauce, they may have had further concerns about my decision to add some left-over sweet mustard pickles. To them I say "oh go away". ;)
Funny how it takes me 20 minutes to cook and prepare the rice and probably only about 5 minutes to eat it. That leaves me plenty of other time to be quite bored.
Today was quite uninteresting, I rang Susan and Jules several times to enquire if they wanted a visitor, but I didn't get any response all day long. That did however give me the opportunity to get the last of my Xmas shopping done and be back here by about 2:30 pm. I bought a CD "Gate-Crasher" of British house Techno which seems not too bad. I also uploaded my last weeks worth of diary entries and not much else. I went over to the lab at about 8:00 pm just to tidy some stuff up and put a reaction in the fridge which I hope will crystallize. Tomorrow will be my last real day at work, and I figure I will spend it getting my part of the lab nice and tidy for when I come back.
I also ran into Heather and Jules W whilst walking down Garema Place near the Round-a-bout and had a good chat with them. Whilst we were talking, Peter M passed by and joined in. Heather and Jules are apparently going bush-walking in Tasmania for Xmas and NYE. Personally I'd like to be in civilization, even if it is to watch it crumble. *g* I also ran into Emma W and had a quick chat with her also, and she had presumably what is a new boy-friend on her arm.
Just chatting to Soba on ICQ.

1:50 am - Ok, way past bed-time yet again, tomorrow will be cleaning and trying to write these darn Xmas cards so that they have a chance of arriving before then.
