Today started at 5am with me being woken up by Chris’s alarm which plays Brian Adams’ “Summer of 69” really fucking loud. After it played out and then came on 6 times in a row, I started to wonder why it wasn’t being shut off and got up and did it myself. I then went back to sleep before waking up at 8am to get ready and go play golf with Chris and Chom.
We played at Skye Public Golf course. It was in reasonably good condition, but was probably the shortest course I’ve ever played at. A 185m par 4 is very short. And I put a drive on a par 4 on the green. Unfortunately I then ended up 4 putting and getting a bogey. The story of my day, really.
Chris won with 41, I played like a warmed up pile of dog shit, and still got 43 and Chom got 49, but neither Chom nor I were using our own clubs….. Well thats my excuse anyway.
After golf I said my goodbyes to Chom and Chris and headed back to Melbourne. I picked up Jana from her apartment and we went out for lunch and a drink in St Kilda. I was planning on going to the gym as Jana is nearly always asleep until about 4pm, but being as she was up and I had spent very little time with her over the weekend, I was very pleased to be able to hang out. After lunch we drove to Docklands and walked into the city for a coffee and for Jana to look for some ridiculously overpriced designer jeans.
She found the ones she wanted and we then walked down to Southbank to meet Trent. We had a few beers together and then walked into the city to go to Dumplings Plus, which has freakin awesome dumplings and was very well priced. Damn I love the food and drink prices in Melbourne.
Jana then had to run some errands in the hire car, so Me and Trent went to Madam Brussels for a drink, and then to Carlton Club. Trent dashed off to catch a train back to Ballarat and I met up with Nassima for a drink in Port Melbourne. Nassima has had some housemate issues recently and I understand how that can put a major downer on other facets of ones life. After a few beers Jeremy and Jana joined us as Nassima attempted to convince Jeremy that he should get an iPhone. He was not terribly thrilled by this, as Jeremy has a phone that sends sms and makes phone calls and that is all he wants. He does not need a phone that you can shake and it chooses a Melbourne restaurant for you….
After the bar staff at the Local noisily started moving the outdoor chairs and tables around us, we decided it was probably a good time to make our exit. I said my goodbyes to Jeremy and Nassima. Both of which I am unlikely to see before the big trip overseas. Jana and I headed home where she attempted to study and I tried in vain to get all my crap back into my suitcase.
