Of kitty litter and wisdom teeth...

I've been at Dad's place in Fairbairn for ages now. Here's the update.

First and foremost - kitty litter is gross. True, life would be much grosser without it, but kitty litter is nonetheless - gross. And it gets grosser the longer you leave it, and the lower it's ratio to kitty "deposits" becomes!

Fortunately - Xbox 360 rox and rox hard! Dad's tv turns out to be HD capable, and 50" of xbox 360 is pretty mega! :D I've built up a decent collection of games and accessories and the box is an able replacement for my beloved old Dreamcast. I have 8 games : Pro Evo 6, Ghost Recon 1, Project Gotham Racing, Dead or Alive 4, Viva Pinata, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Phantasy Star Universe and Gears of War. I also have 3 controllers with rechargeable batteries for all.

I have to constrain my purchasing for the moment though as my finances have been perilously precarious over the last week! $1750 is about what it would have cost me without health insurance to have all my wisdom teeth removed! Even with health insurance I am still out of pocket over a grand at the moment but Medibank and Medicare should replenish my wallet a decent proportion of that this week. Having my wisdom teeth out hasn't been completely awful. Fortunately I don't have too much pain, but my face is all swollen on the left hand side where the doctor evidently had a little trouble 'encouraging' the tooth out... Oh well.

Dad and Jo will be back from their European sojourn in only another week or so. There's lots more to say but maybe I will say it later, if ever. Customs got back to me and my security was approved so the move over there is on, but not before Asian Cup in Thailand, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Indonesia next month! Should be groovy.

Too bad about this shitty cold Canberra weather.
