Woke up really early this morning, it wasn't even 7am yet, I fell back to sleep, and didn't wake up again until 9.20am. Crap.

Got up, got ready.

D'oh, was reminded of the fact that I needed to buy milk, since it ran out yesterday. I put the dregs of the carton on my cereals, it wasn't even enough to wet it.

Trying to eat dry plain puffed wheat is like trying to eat polystyrene I think, you can't hardly chew it. When it's wet it's ok, since it goes a bit soggy, but dry was just useless.

I took for work about 9.50am, got on the freeway, got fuel.

About 14ks north of the the service station there was a speed trp, this one was a bit strange, the guy was just on the grass, facing south, they're usually in the breakdown phone areas, or the u turn bays, not just on the grass.

I was going a bit quick, so I tapped my brake when I saw him, but he didn't do anything.

I kept going. About 5 ks south of the Newcastle on ramp, on the southbound side, there was another one.

The rest of the trip was uneventful.

I got to work, did a stack of coding.

The guy who's taken over the website stuff (that I got dumped with) came round to thank me for helping him out, no worries.

Someone else came round to ask about photos that used be on the website, so I spoke to him for a minute, someone else heard me talking about stuff missing from the website, so then they came over to ask about stuff they thought was missing. Gees.

Then there was also a chick there who wanted her pc setup so she could access the development interface of the website, so I had to go and set her computer up.

I came back, and decided to go for lunch, since it's now almost 1pm.

I went upstairs to see if the guys were there, but they must have already gone to lunch.

I went out, and down the road. I went past the court house, and there was a cop waiting to cross the road. The lights changed for a walk as I got close, and we crossed the road.

I went slow, and let him get a bit in front of me, a kid riding a bike came past me, and then continued past the cop, and crossed the road without looking around.

Let's see, the kid's riding on the footpath, fairly quickly, not wearing a helmet, and dangerously rides onto the road but the cop just ignores him. Typical.

I went past a men's clothes shop that had some really hideous shirts in the window, were 25% off, now they're out of the window, on a rack that says 50% off. I went in and had a look, there are some shockers, then I checked the prices, that was even more of a shocker, $70 for these shirts! I assume the 50% means they're $35, but even that is far too much, when I can get shirts like this for about $10 elsewhere.

I kept going down the road, I got a couple of pies from the bakery in the mall, and sat outside and ate them.

There's a Lowes shop there, and we keep joking about the Tshirts they've got with "Lowes" printed across the front, like somebody's going to where it like it's a terrific brand, as opposed to it saying "Cheapass".

It even came up in conversation last night, and got better, someone said to where one, with a bad hawaiian shirt over the top.

I went across to have a look, the ones we've seen are white with Lowes written in black on them, but I'm not a big fan of white tshirts, I'm a grub, and always spill things on myself, I can get away with it on dark shirts.

I looked, and noticed they had some yellowy white ones, and black ones at the back with Lowes in white on them.

I went around to the other side of the rack, and looked at the bad shirts, there was one that wasn't too bad, but it was $20, too much for a joke shirt, I kept looking, and spotted a really bad one, black with shapes on it, for only $4! I grabbed that, and a black Lowes shirt, and went in and bought them.

The woman at the counter commented on the really bad shirt being a bargain (but not that it was really bad), it was hard to keep a straight face.

I paid, and was on my way. Not bad, $8 something for 2 shirts, and now I've got clean clothes to wear to work tomorrow.

I noticed this woman looking at me as I went up the road, when I looked at her, she started coming towards me, and I think I spotted a name tag, uh oh, not getting caught by some charity person, I made my donation, leave me alone, and I dived into the newsagent.

I got a drink from the fridge, paid, made sure it was clear, and continued on my way back to the office.
