Thursday Post 312

 Good afternoon! Firstly, today I've been hard @ work plodding 3321 steps and secondly, TWFT topic's "Praying According To God's Will." Anyways, events for today?

• Lol, you'd reckon after I'd exhausted myself with the two-hour physio session @ the NAB yesterday I'd be entitled to an awesome night's sleep, right? Only my stupid bladder nudged me awake around 2am and again around 3:30am to use the pot! :P
• At 5:18pm I've played one game of ZBejeweled lasting 5:22. Now, lemme finish one more game lasting between six and seven minutes, and I promise to willingly hit the sack tonight. XD
• Nature called again the third time around 7am; after a third pot :P trip I spent the ten minutes till 7am beginning a mostly silent chat to Percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance I need to get through today with, giving PIG mum all the pleasure, all the satisfaction and just suffering for her whenever she decided that only she can be happy and/or satisfied. It doesn't sound very fair, but she's taught me through her actions, if not through her words, that it's enough she's happy and/or satisfied, and I guess whenever that happens, I've just got to grit my teeth and endure. >< *sigh* 

• Sleeping happily for one more hour, I used the pot :P again when dearest dad considerately walked silently along the hallway and unpopped the lock leading into the garage. Shortly afterwards, he came to kiss me bye and retuck me into bed before leaving for his hard day's work.
• Now @ 6:05pm I've played one more game of Bejeweled lasting 6:55. That's today's quotas satisfied, and now I willingly hit the sack tonight. XD Actually, I further promise not to play again until toms, because I've also played one more memorable game lasting 7:33! But just briefly now:
• Tina arrived ten minutes late today (traffic).
• During and after breakfast, I happily read for one hour, reaching pg. 225 @ 8:50am and finishing pg. 250 @ 9:22am.
• After doing a stinky unspeakable, Tina tootled me off to Sunnybank Hills Shoppingtown for my shopping trip!
• After using the loo for one tinkle first, we bought sth from The Reject Shop. Amazingly, it wasn't @ the end wall! I also chose an adorable anniversary card for the parents~
• Next, we bought groceries from Woolies. As we were walking towards Woolies, someone goes, "Hey, Emily!" I turn my head left towards the sound and there's Caitlin, manning the self-serve checkouts! Era waves back and I call, "Please don't go on lunchbreak yet; we'll come through once we've picked up some groceries!" She replies, "I'll be here!"
• After grabbing groceries Tina scanned them through the self-serve checkout while I took a quick rest sitting on the counter thing beside the self-serve checkout and had a quick chat to Caitlin~
• Next, we catch the lift onto level four and buy more groceries from Coles before finally checking out the new place PIG mum had suggested I buy her and dearest dad a small cake from? Unfortunately, that attempt was met with failure: firstly, everything was just left out in the open and there weren't any cakes! Rather, there was like apple danishes, croissants, etc.
• Hence we headed back downstairs to New York Baguette. I sat on the bench outside the bakery while Tina first went to put the groceries into her car and then went inside to ask where the cakes were.
• Turns out they're @ the very back, inside some glass cabinet! All the cakes were way too expensive but Tina saw chocolate eclairs that were $7.50 each and I bought one each for the parents.
• Shopping down, Tina tootled us back to Woka Warrigal. After she'd visited the bathroom and eaten two small packets of plain crisps, she walked with me inside Woka Woka. Leaning against the counter I thought I ordered the teriyaki chicken ried rice lunch special.
• Taking a seat, suddenly Thomas, Daph and their male friend enter too! Daph comes over for a hug, also asking how am I after that scary traffic incident that befell Hannah and I like two months ago? I sheepishly confessed that I'd honestly thought oh sh*t I'm gonna die. XD
• This time Nick didn't say "Miss?" to get Tina's attention; he actually walked past our table and told Tina, "You're food's ready,"!
• Back home, the Lungs had arrived! By the time I'd used the loo for one tinkle and headed out to the gobbling :P table, Pastor Chris had already rearranged the table to easily fit all four of us! (One @ each side)
• Lol, I must've accidentally ordered the teriyaki chicken with rice, not the teriyaki chicken fried rice. XD Didn't matter~ Since mother wasn't around, I didn't eat the icky capsicums nor the unpleasant mushrooms. XD Over lunch, Pastor Chris told me that his small group will do Bible study from Ezra again tonight and Pastor Grace shared about how she's doing a podcast soon!
• They left around 2pm; I walked them out, elbow bumped them both and then returned to the gobbling :P table to finish my lunch. XD
• After writing the anniversary card, I took a nice hot shower - I washed and rinsed my own hair today. I also softly, slowly but most hatefully sang 20% of my shorter second-favourite song out aloud, opening both eyes for all the important numbers. Actually, since Tina kindly stayed and held the showerhead over my back to keep me warm after I called her back to please gimme some facewash, I was actually all done after 10% but happily leaned fully against the side rail and watered myself for another tinkle before calling Tina back.
• After I flipped the nice hot water off, I got dried, had another tinkle while Tina went to find me some clothes; dunno what she was doing when I was washing my hair XD and then got creamed. When Tina rekitted me, I had one more tinkle when she was helping with Erf's sock and one last one when I was drying inside both ears with a tissue.
• Back outside, I turned the computer on and asked Tina to please go clean the bathroom.
• After she left I let PIG mum nab half my arvo tea, the yummy sausage bun.
• Arvo tea was washed down with one mug of Chinese tea, after which I smuggled my mobile into the loo and played Farm Heroes for the full five tinkles. XD
• Toms: presuming PIG mum'll help me up; can't remember what time's my NAB physio session? Mr. Jig-Air has said I'll be plodding the treadmill toms.
• Will come home, shower and have lunch before seeing Aunty Ann for a comfy massage. I'm looking forward to her firm ministrations; bet PIG mum's simply DYING to yap unceasingly @ her.
• Will prolly haveta let her gleefully force poor Ela to feed me some fruit for arvo tea, but hey.
• Can I watch Nine's 6pm news toms night before wolfing down dinner, using the loo for one tinkle and then crashing onto the couch to watch the Broncos play? May haveta skip dinner for that ... *siggh*
• Anyways, hopefully bbl else wishing everyone a smashing end to the week toms!
  Cheers,
  Em. ^^
