Boots and Cookies

I'll keep this short because I have a sudden urge to watch "The Matrix", and the final hours of the weekend are quickly approaching. This week, I

  • Succeeded in making a web demo of a data analytic piolot project actually do something using my amazing (*cough) C# skills,
  • Was given even more work to do as a result,
  • Went to a geeky Symbian Foundaton party with James,
  • Became addicted to Scribblenauts (a new Nintendo DS game),
  • Bought two beautiful new pairs of boots from the Clarks Factory store for £45 (one pair of Gortex/brown leather winter boots with leaves on them, on pair of nicer brown leather low-heeled work boots),
  • Made white-chocolate macadamia nuts cookies with hazelnuts instead of macadamia nuts because the grocery store selection here is a bit slim,
  • Presented these cookies to my friend Aliki as a birthday gift at her Halloween party last night,
  • Spent two hours getting to the aforementioned party when it should have only taken an hour because we missed our train; spent two hours on night buses getting home because TFL are liars and there is NOT a 1:30am train from Charing Cross.


I love bullet points. They make it look like I put some real effort into this post!

Love always,
Melanie
