back in Melb!

Well subject says it all, so I may as well not continue with this poast, which would be half tempting as I'm dog-tired, like I knew I would be.
The flight was .. long? I kinda didn't expect any different there. :( But I had a Beatles/ABBA/Anne Murray/a few other singles marathon on my Iriver which kept me amused for most of the flight, and as always, food is the other highlight!
I had the stupidest cab driver back here. Because he was like most of the other idiot Melb cab drivers, he followed his GPS which took him the long way which cost me like 49 bucks instead of 20 or whatever it usually is. But I was too tired to fight but gee I'm angry; especially because he thought I was telling him he was dishonest when my exact words were "I believve your GPS has taken us the long way"; learn english, *sigh* i felt like I was back in Dubai.
But when I was on the plane I felt sad; I mean part of me didn't want to leave, but it seemed like I only really got into the holiday before i left; what with that wog of the first week and dad having to work every day of last week. I even found myself attracted to dubai in a way I hadn't been before.
Dad and I did go on the cruise Monday night along the marina. we were disappointed it didn't go into the gulf like it normally does but they said it was too choppy.
Salix is bringing Joy back in about an hour from now as they only have one car; ah well; so can't wait to see her! :)
Right, hadn't meant to write that much. I'm going to try and stay awake today but who knows how successful I'll be.

staying awake all day; fail!

Well, Salix did bring Joy back and boy was she excited to see me; but I am so greatful as she was obviously very well looked after. I was def excited to see her too though; sounds weird but I forgot her exact height and how soft she was!
I felt like a complete bitch because I told them I was so tired and without actually saying the words, I think they thought I was kicking them out; well I did go back to bed but I feel bad none-the-less. We're going to catch up soon anyway.
Hopefully I should be fine after tonight anyway; don't see any reason why I shouldn't. I slept til about 4.30; then I went to take Joy out and wondered what I could do to stay awake but i feel reasonably OK now. I don't have a lot of food here but got some meat out and one potatoe; will go shopping tomorrow; I love to have food in the house!
I was about to get my acer out and have a game of monopoly but don't know if I feel like it.
I wonder if I'll understand neighbours tonight; didn't end up downloading any episodes while away. ah well; should pick it up, hopefully! And it'd be interesting to see biggest Loser again. Lol

OMG! :)

Current consumption: cadbury bunny (that Mum bought me before I left ;) I did have a lovely dinner (chop, sausage and last potatoe in house) though despite the lack of food here.
( neighbours banter )

I'm actually feeling OK now. That little sleep to get over the worst of it probably helped then tonight I can go to bed as normal!
