Good things:

+ shopping trip! bought for Xmas stocking: amazing dull pink David Jones store brand lipgloss
+ also bought: Essie Matte About You nailpolish topcoat, which is terribly overpriced in Canberra >:(
+ meeting with ortho elective supervisor today; he is lovely and is encouraging me to take a long weekend off to go to Sydney, which means...
+ ...ARMAGEDDON. Christian Kane! David Hewlett! (& leaping upon ryokophoenix with gusto)
+ saw Julie & Julia last night, loved it TO PIECES
+ made delicious char kway teow for dinner, undeterred by heathen siblings who have problems with prawns +/or tofu puffs +/or lap cheong +/or baby bok choy (grrr)

Not so good things:

- AUGH YULETIDE MELTDOWN TIME AUGH AUGH SO MUCH TO WRITE AND SO FEW WORDS APPEARING IN BRAIN
