Week ending 30-Nov

Thanksgiving was of course this week and it was very sad to not be able to celebrate in the usual way! No turkey for me but I did manage to get away from the office for dinner and had a relatively American-ish meal in honor of the day: a burger and a beer. Not your typical Thanksgiving food but it did the job as well as it could. Friday night was our firmwide end of the year/holiday party. It was at the overseas passenger terminal which is down on the harbor right across from the opera house. It was a pretty cool spot actually and after torrential downpours all day the weather actually let up a bit and we had a nice night. Otherwise another pretty chilled out weekend. Sunday was a gorgeous day (the first weekend day that was nice in a couple weeks) and I had been thinking about going and taking a surfing lesson but I ended up having to go to work for a few hours which kind of killed that plan. Maybe I’ll get out there next weekend.

Now its time for the second installment of “A day in the life of Jesse, Australia-style.” I put up a few photos a couple months back of our apartment before we got furniture but now that we’ve been furnished for a good two months I decided its time to take a few more photos of our place when it’s not completely bare. Follow the link for the photos (and descriptions).
