…It’s good to see that Westfield has got the true meaning of Christmas nailed down…

I’d almost consider wandering down there at 3am on friday morning, just to see who on earth would be up and shopping at that time…..but I don’t think I will.

Today I was thwarted, on many fronts.
To start with I headed off to the computer fair to see if I could pick up that $40 second hand motherboard with a PIII 533 in it that I saw last week, or failing that, something similar to upgrade Caitlin’s computer with.
But there was nothing! There were only a couple of very sparsely populated second hand tables, and didn’t really have anything worth buying – although I strongly considered spending a couple of hundred on a complete used system instead, but fortunately willpower won out, and I left empty handed.
Well, empty except for the inevitable egg and bacon roll that is…

So, having failed at that task, I instead headed off to the mall to see if I could finish off….or start….my Christmas shopping, but was again thwarted at every turn. I’d had plenty of ideas last night when we wandered around the Canberra Centre, but unfortunately nothing I thought of could be found in Belconnen – even though the stores I’d seen them in were also in the mall.
Along the way I wandered in to Dymocks, and accidently wandered out with Shadowmarch – which I hadn’t intended to buy yet, but that’s what I get for walking in to a bookshop with money in my wallet…heh

I guess I’m going to have to head in to Civic tomorrow – so for today, I think I’ll go work on some music.
