If you
live in the northern hemisphere you'd
probably think it's odd... but it is
springtime in Australia. I know a lot of
people hate the cold. Well... I think pretty
much everyone I know hates it. I don't. Not
that much. There were days during winter
when the weather was just too nasty, but I'd
prefer the colder season than the warmer
ones.
Springtime isn't so bad. But probably by
December it wouldn't be so pleasant for me
because that is when the weather becomes too
hot.
But
one thing I don't like about springtime are
the flies. I know it's a lot worse during
summer, but for some reason as soon as the
cold season is over flies manage to find
their way into the kitchen. My guess is that
during winter they sleep in little secret
spots in and around the building. Probably
inside those stinking shoes in the staff
locker room. Ewww! I just wish they'd stay
out. They're really annoying!!!
I'm
reading a new book at work. It's
The Peloponnesian War by Donald Kagan. I
don't really have a lot of spare time in the
kitchen, but if it is a bit quiet then I try
to read a few pages because it's really
relaxing. I enjoy reading non-fiction books,
especially the ones about significant events
in history. And I like the way the book was
written because it's laid out as a story
rather than a boring high school textbook.
It's about the war between the Spartan
League and the Athenian Empire. Sort've like
the movie
Troy... but the plot is a lot thicker
and most importantly it did happen.
I
also received a replacement kit from
Barcelona. Remember
last time I had to send back my FCB kit
because they misspelled my name. Well, they
sorted it out and they also sent me an
"Away" kit which is really cool! :)
I'm
still full from yesterday's lunch. I had a
rump with lots of chips and lots of mushroom
sauce. I know it's not very healthy, but
once in a while isn't bad... and yesterday
was that once in a while. Hehehe!
