Sleepy time today

Have you ever had one of those weeks where you keep meaning to catch up on sleep, but on each successive day you still manage to go to bed later and later. That has been happening to me this week. I have been busy with part time work at an art gallery. Which is good because I can look around the place in my spare time. I have also been working hard at my studies and losing FIFA 2006 (world cup edition) to my brother and the computer.

Still I have had time to hit Brunswick St and Smith St in Fitzroy and escort Makiko on expedition to find fabrics for her crafty creations. Putting off a few things I should probably get round to this month. At the top of the list is going to the dentist and doing my tax return.

I have just finished a good book about this guy experiencing the tough love of rigourous martial arts training in Japan. It is by Robert Twigger and is called 'Angry White Pyjamias'.

Makiko and I were pretty disappointed today because we had great weather this Monday to go to a sculpture park and art gallery set in 8 hectares of bushland. It was suppose to get up to around 17C. Unfortunately the place was closed on Mondays. It had some works of Yoshitomo Nara who Makiko and I really like. Oh well maybe I can squeeze it in later in the month.

I am hoping to get my application for a graduate position at the National Library of Australia this month.

I have heard interesting things from the Federated Republic of Micronesia courtesy of my mate Judy. She is over their doing health surveys on tiny tropical islands. Or at least that is my image of it. Lucky she can eat cheap bananas. In Australia (for those readers from overseas.) the banana prices here are extortinate because a cyclone knocked out most of our main suppliers crops in Queensland. I have heard they should be back at cheaper prices in around September.

Music wise I have just bought Thom Yorke's solo album Eraser. Which is okay but to be honest lately I have mostly been listening to 60s soul classics. So upbeat and generally happy, apart from 'sitting on the dock of the bay'.

My mate Chris is living an interesting life over in Korea. He has just bought a bass which will kick ass because Chris plays bass like a madman.

I am also trying to finish my homework which is a large set of understandable but time consuming exercises using Microsoft Access. The databases I really want to get a hang of though are DBtextworks.

That is all.
