The Day That Was - June 28th, 2010

So, here is my day in review. Hold on to your seats:
I awoke around 8am, and dozed through 'til 9ish. I listen to National Radio. Not sure who was filling in on Nine To Noon - she wasn't as good as Kathryn Ryan. I got up and made a cup of tea (Twining's English Breakfast, 6/10. I'll buy Dilmah next time) and some porridge. I added some canned apricots, which really cranked breakfast up a gear. They were Watties, and were far superior to Home Brand. Especially in that they actually resembled apricots, not some orange mush. I spent an hour or so on the internet, reading blogs, checking facebook etc. Internet, I give you a 4/10 today - nothing amazing.
My flatmate Matt got up and we chatted. I finished a mix-CD I made for my friend Harriet. It was probably one of the best I've made (good songs, nice design: 9/10). Matt and I walked in to town, and had lunch at Krishna Cafe. I really love this place, and their $5 Lunch is pretty unbeatable: 10/10. We went to Galaxy Records (great store), and the Salvation Army Store (which has been reviewed elsewhere). We walked home and I dropped off the CD. Matt is cool - we're friends, but I don't know if I've 'hung out' with him as much as I'd like. Man-date with Matt: 9/10 (he didn't put out).
When we got home, I read most of the Camp A Low Hum '07 zine (wish I was there/10), and did some crochet. I'm kind of making something, but I'm not sure if I'll stick with it. I had a shave, and it was top quality (9/10). I also made some stickers to put around town, and cycled to the library on my way to work.
New carpet was being laid ('dynamic', 7/10), and I had no idea what I wanted to read. After a fair bit of aimless wandering, I borrowed The Scornful Moon by Maurice Gee, You Are Now Entering The Human Heart by Janet Frame (I'd not read either author - I fail as a New Zealander), and Elephants on Acid by Alex Boese (it's about bizarre scientific experiments. I started reading it at work, it's very good). I owed the library $5, which was a bit of a let down.
Work was super quiet. No seniors on Senior Monday ($6 tickets - how could they resist?!). Time went fairly quick though, and well, a 4 hour shift is always pretty easy: 7/10. I stopped by Pak N' Save and got some Scottish baps (end of the day price reduction, $1.49), before heading back to the library to park my bike. I wandered around the central city and put up some stickers I'd made. They're white with typewritten messages such as 'you are beautiful', 'dream dream dream', and 'you look great today'. They're small, and mainly out of the way, and will hopefully be rewarding to observers. A fun exercise: 8/10.
I came home and had a shower. It seemed to run out of hot water about 2/3rds of the way through, mostly ruining an otherwise promising shower: 4/10. I ate an apple for supper - Royal Gala, my favourite variety: 7/10.
Then I started writing this. Did you enjoy it? It feels a touch excessive, though I did find I felt motivated to do stuff. 8/10 (woah, 'meta')
