In an attempt to do nothing.
Sunday arvo involved me actively trying to do nothing. Which, I think on reflection worked out quite well. I think it now makes me think I must be the funnest person in the whole entire universe, alongside Jo because our active scheme of doing nothing was conjured up together over an hour or so.
So after a egg on toast feast (with other yummy things on top) with Jo, Mil, Tony and Carlos, Jo and I continued conjuring up our plan which consisted of:
1. DVD- “Love My Way” a TV series.
1a. A laptop (for watching DVD in abnormal places, see 2.)
2. The roof (Ryan’s side of the house)
3. Ambience (being roof, and cushions)
4. Take away vanilla malt milkshakes in tacky yellow and green paper cups that remind me of summer when I was a kid.
Once our ingredients were blended, despite the light, and the rather occasional disruption of the inner city flight path, the scheme played itself out just marvellously.
I think the malt in the milkshakes (although seemingly a small ingredient) was an incredibly important aspect to the afternoon. Malt adds a dash of excitement and old fashioned-ness. And…I must say, a vanilla milkshake without malt is mildly dismal (after knowing the goodness of malt).
Unfortunately, amidst the excitement we forgot to take a photo, for which reason we have decided to do it again soon.
