- Ruthie and I saw our first 'roo a couple days ago. Technically, it was a wallaroo [or at least I think it was, since it was black], and there were three of them. Hoppity hop.
- Through Ruthie's charm, and courtesy of a slow day at the Victory dealership, I think I might have a free day-long test drive on a Victory one day soon.
- We've mostly learned the rules to driving on the left, including possibly figuring out Melbourne's stupid go-left-to-turn-right-in-the-middle-of-an-intersection rule [no, not like Jersey, where it actually wraps you around to a light].
- For as much as we lack the sports fanatic gene, we both can admit to actually kinda liking rugby and footy.
- I get to start a new job soon.
On the not-so-exciting list:
- The rental real estate market is f'n competitive. First off, they only have open houses for 15 minutes at a time, which is weird to me [although I can understand it from the agent's point of view, I guess]. So today, with that 15-minute window, two of the houses we checked out had about a dozen couples crammed in and wandering through.
- The house Ruthie thought she really wanted turned out to be a bit disappointing on the inside. Still put in an application, but we [or she] will try again Monday.
- It's rather shocking how much of a difference in price there is between the city and the suburbs. If I wasn't so opposed to commuting, we could have a sweet pad in the 'burbs.
- Apparently, unless you're rich, car shopping is depressing. Fingers crossed we have some returns on inquiries tomorrow for a private sale.
- I have to go back to work soon.
