I had a great night last night. After work I picked up a friend of mine from her house, and we went to a pizza place in the city. We had a yummy pizza with eggplant, semi-dried tomato, capsicum, bocconcini (and other stuff I can’t remember), and chatted. The main course was followed by a coffee and baklava. Mmmm syrupy.
After dinner we were wondering what to do, so we went for a bit of a walk, although the end of town we were in wasn’t terribly scenic. So we decided to go back to the car and go for a drive. We ended up down at the beach, where it was blowing a gale, and walked down the jetty. It was nice standing at the end of the jetty, watching the waves crash into it. Given that it was so windy, there were actually semi-decent (by Adelaide beach standards) waves, and there were some people in the water trying to make the most of them.
I didn’t have a jacket with me, so in the end I was a party pooper because I was getting a bit cold. We wandered back to the car and went back to her place for a little while. I got to see her cats, which I hadn’t seen since they were tiny kittens. She thinks one of them is huge now, but actually he’s nothing compared with my cats! She has a boy and a girl, and the boy is a lot bigger, but still small on the cat scale. When she comes to my house, I’LL show her a cat!
Her partner has been teaching himself card tricks, and he showed me a few. I was really impressed! I got home a little after 10, and mucked around on the computer for a while before going to bed. A very nice evening indeed.

Yaya: Yes, it was very nice indeed!
Nicole: The beach was great - windy, but the sea was tempestuous and looked pretty cool. I hope you’re feeling better.
Dawn: What do Americans call capsicum - is it peppers? Like red and green peppers? Bocconcini is a type of cheese.
