Catch a falling star

This weekend i have done pretty much naff all, other than sit in the sun and study. Oh, and watch an inordinate amount of the TV series Bones, which is very very good. The incredible things they can find out from bone shards, some dirt and some bacteria! Went for another walk down to the horse sanctuary and back, and saw a huuuuuuge rat running across the road! With the evil little leggies and the long swooshy tail and the beady soulless eyes....*shudders*. Managed to glimpe a couple of shooting stars last night despite the heavy cloud cover :) Apparently the visibilty was much better on the coast, and i doubt Norwich saw anything at all with that amount of light pollution!
Work is still slow as ever, and the boredom is slowly mounting. I dont think it helps much that its not long til mine and Naidel's backpacking trip. I am getting all excitable, which always makes time go slower! Dad is taking me shopping for backpacking equiptment this weekend as he's buying it for my birthday :) I already have a few bits and peices for the trip - so far i have sun lotion, deoderant, toothbrush and flannel. a good start methinks. I'm still working out and walking as much as poss, tho not walking a lot today as i am wearing high heels which are, quite frankly, murdering my feet! Gimme the comfort of my walking boots anyday!!! Guen and Ixian are packing their little suitcases ready for the trip, and Gerald is hording packets of mini-cheddars just in case there arent any on the continent.I had to throw away my favourite Tigger mug yesterday :( It got chipped somehow (methinks someone dropped it...no names will be mentioned...grr). I do however, have a very stylish Tigger mug and bowl set for work :) I decided to give this Special K diet thing a try in a bid to get fit for the trip, so me and Sammy can often be seen with our faces in our bowls at 9 am in the morning :)*yawn* I wish today was over so i can go home and nap...i mean...write my assignment and go to the gym...
