things...

It's been too long. I'm alive and well despite my moving company having gone into liquidation. My stuff, thankfully, is still at sea and should arrive in Durban on Tuesday, which means it will only take about another fortnight before I actually get to sit on my couch and cook with my pans and cut with my knives and add colours to my outfits besides black, black, black and red. Actually, some more red would be nice. I am very sick of my clothes, with the exception of my 'John Allison' skirt. It's still just lovely!
Anyway, this weekend I have hired a car - it's a snazzy little Daihatsu. I was meant to have borrowed Michelle's car, but her parents, who have the keys, are busy tonight and I have to get home and get back to School tomorrow for the engagement program, so I need to be mobile! Anyway, it's also Priscilla's birthday so I'm taking her out for Indian in Greenside (where I went for the fantastic deli lunch a month or so ago!).
I NEED to get a car soon. I'm trying to work something out so that that can happen in the next couple of weeks. eish.
Anyway, I should be about ready to leave. I have a whole pile of marking that the students handed in today - so I have a fun weekend ahead if nothing else! They handed in at 5pm and I've already found one case of plagiarism! Students. blah.
But, my new flat is just lovely! The space is wonderful and the light just divine! So on balance, things are good.
