Saturday Morning

We ate lunch in Glenferrie Road. It is a very Saturday morning thing to do. Go further afield, though, just not eating in our own neighbourhood all the time. (If I said spice of life, would you vomit? You know, a cliché vomit, not a nausea vomit) Lovely Hawthorn. My dad used to teach there at Swinburne Uni. I practically went to school there, Smithton is just up the road a bit. I used to walk down this way to my father’s off, some days. So, it is very familiar to me. I consider it is the area in which I grew up. So going there is nice for me, and interesting to me to. I like it.

Glenferrie Road shops didn’t look all that different, I guess that is a good thing, if it is anything, the property developers haven’t fucked it up yet. Swinburne Uni looked different, though, when we both had a look in passing. Sam and I both went to Swinburne uni.

After we’d eaten, we bought a solar pond pump at Bunnings in Hawthorn. It is an industrial kind of looking Bunnings squeezed into an industrial suburban shopping street frontage, it is more vertical than your standard Bunnings centre.

We saw Dante as we drove into Bunnings and he gave us his car spot. Fancy that. Dante? That bitter old bitch. Still, nice of her, I guess.

We came home and setup the solar panel on the roof. However, ultimately, it would prove not to be powerful enough. Not enough sun at our place, either, too many trees. Still, it was a nice idea, but pretty quickly it became landfill. So, making an attempt to save the planet, we inadvertently added to the waste. Some days, that is what happens, I guess. 

Oh, you were on line and now you're gone.......So sorry about last Sunday nights stuff up and that you had to go out to the airport my lovely. I now know to come down Victoria St when coming from Mum's to your place......Hope you and Sam have been cuddling up with Buddy in this miserable weather – LouLou 

We ate stir fried veggies for dinner.
