murty can has maxibon?

welcome to another blog viewing. today i will be addressing some more random crap that goes on in my life, i hope you enjoy it!

over the last week, i have had many late nights. so two things happen when i have late nights. i go to bed later and still have to wake up at the same time (less sleep). and maxibon runs.
maxibon runs are much similar to a ‘maccas run’, except rather then going to mcdonalds, i go to bp (australian petrol station). and rather then getting a big mac and fries, i get a maxibon! if you are confused about the term maxibon, please allow me to explain.
a maxibon in a nutshell is an icecream, much similar to ‘magnums’ or ‘gold gaytimes’ or ‘bubble o bills’; except there is a twist! this is what wikipedia says about them:

quote:
maxibon is a type of ice cream sandwich made by nestlé. basically it consists of a block of ice cream with small lumps of chocolate held deep within a choc-coated and a biscuit end. rather than a stick or a wafer, the person holds the maxibon by two slabs of edible cookie dough. a standard maxibon weighs 100 g and has a volume of about 150 ml. blocks are shipped into thin plastic bags that may be easily ripped off with both hands.

so esentially, you get all the goodness of a standard icecream, except with “edible cookie dough” and without the hassle of a pop-stick! what more could you want from an icecream! anyways, so i have had several maxibons over the last week and they have so been worth it. plus the drive to bp and back is always fun.

this last weekend just gone was a moderately full-on weekend. for me, my weekends start at 5:31pm on friday afternoon. so friday afternoon i had the absolute pleasure of escorting my lovely partner around tanunda for the street parade. unfortunately there was no pleasure in the actual parade so i had to take up “checking out” my beautiful girlfriend. then we prepared a barbecue and enjoyed other company at her place.
saturday consisted of attending happylan. happylan is a communal gathering of nerds and versing each other at computer games. through out the day i made several trips to my other halves abode and enjoyed her company. i also attended my good friend, tom schroeter’s, 21st birthday party. that was a delight. went back to happylan and went to bed at a ridiculous hour.
played the drums at church and listened to a great talk by steve wilschke. attended the happylan admins barbecue breakup and spent the rest of the day at home.
(then finished the day off with a maxibon run at 11 o’clock sunday night.)

i hope you have wasted some valuable time of your life, time you will never get back.

love murty!
