Busted!

I hurt like heck today after a bloody hard gym session last night. And to top it off, my trainer busted me in the supermarket looking at fresh pasta sauce - then lurked in the shadows while I got my vogels bread! LOL! For those of you overseas who aren't expat Kiwis, Vogels is the most asesome wholegrain bread. I like the 12 grain one, which I never seem to tire of - the mixed grain did my head in after a month, and I stumbled on the 12 grain quite by accident (i.e. grabbed the wrong loaf at the supermarket, got home, incinerated it in the toasted and since then it's all I buy). In other news, my iPod is back from hospital. It now has a shiny new screen, courtesy of a five year extended warranty I took out at purchase. A warning for those of you with a 30GB or 60GB video iPod (circa 2005) - your screen will crap out, with lovely horizontal rows of pixels dying across your screen. The bad news is that it's taken all night to copy all my 12,000 songs back onto it. Epic time fail.

Swimming lessons are going well - I love Swimsation swim school :-) I first learnt to swim with Hilton Brown (yes, THE Hilton Brown) back in primary school and from memory I got pretty good at it, but then got to teenagerhood and all of a sudden swimming wasn't cool. I should have kept at it - I wasn't cool either - so swimming and I could have been good outcast nerdy friends. Ah well!

I'm off to Wellington next week and have discovered Freyberg Pool at Oriental Bay, hopping distance from the accommodation. The gym situation looks a little grim, but there will be plenty of walking done so I think I can probably take four days off the weights and bike with the usual big improvements showing next week.

Time to pack my bags and head for bed - have a great day tomorrow everyone!
