tales from an ordinary world

1999-12-15

We wandered around Chadstone for a while, the first time I've been there in...hmm...ages. Shopping centres just don't do it for me these days, and Chadstone's almost large enough to be its own suburb now. There were a few nice shops in the new area, like another Made In Japan shop, with plenty of completely random objects to drool over, even if you can't really imagine yourself doing anything with them. And another instance (if that's the word) of a tea shop I'd been to in Brunswick St a few years ago and quite enjoyed browsing in...

I'll be Mavisless for a week while her parents visit for her graduation and then go off for a short holiday. This is probably good, because maybe I've been having too much of a good thing over the past few weeks. Not in a bad way, of course, just...I should really let things settle down to a more normal pace, I guess.

Anyway. I really ought to catch up on...stuff. I dunno. Finish that Christmas shopping and so on. And I haven't seen Terry in ages, even though he lives about 5 minutes walk away. We saw more of each other when we lived suburbs apart. Friendships are weird like that...
