Things I love Thursday!

  • Steam Train Saturday! - The Boyfriend surprised me (well, I've known for awhile because he couldn't keep it a secret) by buying us tickets for a day trip on a heritage steam train to the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba. We go this Saturday, and I'm so excited! I even bought a dress to wear, and I'll be rocking a crazy 50's-ish housewife feel. The Boyfriend has a nice shirt and tie to wear, so basically we're going to have an awesome day and look frigging awesome doing it.

  • Stargate: SG1 - Oh, I'm such a science-fiction nerd. Over the last almost three years The Boyfriend and I have been working our way through the seasons, and are currently up to the 9th season. I'm so sad that there is only one more season after this! Not fair! I love SG1 so much, and it's so good whenever we can afford to pick up a new season. I guess it's just onto Stargate: Atlantis after we finish SG1!

  • Talking with various other people from work, and finding out they wish I was working full time - it feels very good to be needed/wanted around the place.

  • Francesca Lia Block - I know lots of people have been raving about her for aeons, but I just discovered this amazing author recently. I borrowed three of her books from my public library, read them all in one day and then put another four on hold. My favourite so far has been Wasteland - the tragic tale of a love between siblings that is so deep that it transcends all boundaries. I haven't read a book that moved me so deeply in a long, long time. And, it is like that with all of her work for me. I'm so happy I finally decided to read her books.

  • Have I mentioned Stargate: SG1 yet? Man, oh man, I love this show. I'm watching it right now.

Other happiness gems: pictures of crazy yoga poses performed in beautiful surroundings; Pleasure State lingerie; The Boyfriend bringing home a bacon and egg muffin for me after his night shifts; silly statement t-shirts; 2 for $30 singlets from Jay Jays in assorted colours of the rainbow; feeling comfortable wearing things that aren't black; buying cute baby books for a workmate who is going on maternity leave; being invited on girls nights; accidentally singing Taylor Swift songs in front of the customers at the fitting rooms; yoga DVD's endorsed by Alan Rickman; Oh, and did I mention Stargate: SG1?

Until next time, xo.
