Brown-out

Today we had a brown-out. Lucky i had just finished cooking my lunch when the power decided to go crazy. The lights were on half-power, some weren't working at all. My computer was on, but it didnt have enough power to keep the screen on. The microwave didnt work at all, neither did the stereo. The tv started going completely spastic and the same with the air con. It was kind of crazy.

And then i noticed that we had some people at the end of our street. They were from Victoria and they had this cool modern comby van that said 'wicked' down the side and across the front. They were airing out sheets, blankets and clothes, and they also had a mattress. According to our neighbour (who came over to talk about the power issues), they were on a big camping type trip and they were heading into the city tonight. .... maybe like the modern hippie???

And i downloaded 3 Goo Goo Dolls songs today as well. So I am happy about that. And it only took 27 seconds for each song! How good is that?

So I am reading Order of the Phoenix before i see the movie (which should be accomplished by saturday) and then i'm reading The Half Blood Prince before the next book comes out. So I should be finished that by next Friday. Or maybe Saturday, depending on what else I have to do.

And we had this tiny little sparrow bird today in our back garden. It was so cute and so tiny!

Anyway, hope y'all have a good day tomorrow. (I know part of my day will be good cos I get to drive to Roseville and back! So I am happy about that.)
