I got up, watched some tv, and bummed around on the computer, going through my email.

I went and did some washing, so I've clean clothes to take back to work tomorrow.

I ordered some DVDs off Amazon, "MacGyver - The Complete First Season", "Neil Finn - Sessions at West 54th", and "Mac and Me".

I started watching the Hoodoo Gurus DVD that my drummer mate had lent me, it was pretty good. I might have to copy it.

I sat and ate cheese and crackers, nothing else edible in the place.

I hung the washing out, and then came back, and finished watching the DVD, and eating the cheese and crackers.

I had nothing left to drink in the place either, so I rode around to the bottle shop. I could have walked there, but it's a 15 minute walk away, which means 1/2 hour, plus the time in there, and having to carry the stuff back, it's all too hard.

Anyway, I rode around there, and since I was only going around the corner, I didn't bother to put all my proper gear on, just sneakers, and my helmet, to go with the shorts and tshirt I was already wearing (oh, and I did wear my gloves).

I parked up, jumped off my bike, and immediately some guy started chatting to me, which distracted me, and I left the key in my bike, which I didn't realise, until the guy who'd started chatting to me told me that I'd left my headlight on.

I grabbed the key out, chatted to him for a bit, continuing as I went into the bottle shop, worked out what I wanted, and bought it.

After that, I put the bottle in my bike, and got back on it.

I got the key out of my left pocket, and as I did so, the change from the bottle came out, and fell on the ground, on the left side of my bike.

I bent down to pick it up, and as I did so, I put my bare leg on the exhaust on the other side, and didn't realise for about a second, until I'd managed to give myself a pretty nasty burn (which I can still see, a month later) on my leg.

I rode home, and as I came into the street, I could smell smoke, and saw a huge plume of smoke going up in the air, from just behind my house.

I parked my bike, and went up behind the house to see if I could see the fire or whatever. I couldn't see over the fence to see where it was coming from, so I jumped up on the roof, and then I was able to see clearly.

Some idiot had a bonfire in the frontyard of their place, just behind my house. He was standing there watching it though, at least that's something.

I went back down, and noticed that some mail had arrived for me in the last week while I've not been here. I went into the house and got it, and then went back out to where I live.

I went through the mail, nothing exciting. There was another Dell brochure, that they spam me with every couple of weeks.

I looked through it again, at the laptops, and ummed and arred again about buying a laptop.

I watched some tv, and drank some alcohol.

I sat and watched "Seems Like Old Times", a movie with Chevy Chase in it, that the guy who looks after the TiVo images recommended to me a few weeks ago, that I bought at Jb HiFi before I went on my holiday.

I wanted to watch another DVD after that, but it was getting a bit late, so I just went and fixed the colour in my hair again, had a shower, and went to bed.
