Dear Diary,
Today started with Nick giving Winston a bit of stick about being brushed-off by Alena. bwahahaha... I know I shouldn't... but it makes me crack up! Note to future self: scribble this bit out before giving anyone a copy.
I managed to put a straight face on and check in with Winston, just to make sure he wasn't too upset. He said he was fine and that he should have known better but she just looked so beautiful sitting there that he kinda forgot himself. Aw, can't laugh at that.
Kira was the first to give Jon's leaving gift a whirl. I should have guessed that a geek would leave us one of these. How cool!
The girls bonded over a late breakfast.
Kira got a bit put out when Alena jumped up and helped with the cleaning. She said it was her job and that no one could do it just exactly right. So, yeah, we still got a bit of work to do on this issue I guess.
We all headed out for a trip, well, more of a visit. I needed some plants that only grew around Mr and Mrs Landgraabs place so they invited us over for the day. I hope everyone behaves!
Kira just wouldn't leave the cleaning issue alone.
Alena stopped her from talking...
... and told her she'd rather they were all friends! Nicely done!
Winston chatted to Malcolm for a while, who was a bit too busy trolling goodness knows what to have much of a conversation.
Pearl and Nick chatted away while working out.
Alena found something interesting to look at on the internet.
Later on I found Winston critiquing his latest painting. I didn't even know the Landgraabs had an easel!
Arianna passed out.
I knew everyone was getting pretty tired but the plants I needed had only just become available so I sprinted away, hoping everyone was going to stay awake until I got back.
Arianna passed out... again.
I got a bit side-tracked with some dig sites. They are a bit like a Christmas present, you never know what's in them. Something fabulous or something you've already got!
Nick nearly cracked his jaw with that one.
Then passed out.
Aaaannnd Arianna again.
Guess who's next.
Yep, Kira. Mr Landgraab had just come downstairs to say hello, some greeting!
Nick again.
Pearl's turn. These plants better be worth it, 'cos the dig sites were rubbish.
Everyone was pretty zonked out by the time we got home. Although I did notice Alena glancing at Winston. Maybe she's changed her mind, just a little, about him? Maybe.
Anyway... I've got some grafting and stuff to do, and I don't like my chances of getting a bed tonight so I'll write more tomorrow. Or later as I think it's already tomorrow now.
Matt.
