Was a great day today @ Zen Garage. BBQ, hot cars, great people, but right now… quality couch time with Mia :)

Morning Mia.

Mia’s sporting a pink collar again (pink skulls of-course!).

The Max!

It’s taken a while, but Christina has Max back, and he’s SO AWESOME!!!!! I caught up with Max (hehe) a week ago now, he’s MASSIVE and the same old Max I remember, like a dog! Love love love him. Miss him heaps and heaps.

Keke Mia. Bit chubbers ATM.

So cute.

Bedroom eyes :)

Pretty flowers are pretty.

Amazing view.

Uncle Toshi showing us some amazing footage of a Sake Brewery in Japan. The man has an amazing eye!

“Happiness” – Sake cups. Pressies for Nana from Japan.

The birdies, safely at Nanami’s.

Helped Nanami transport a couple of birdies today. Her relo’s are over from Japan and her Mum’s taking them all for a trip to Tassie so Nana’s put her hand up to look after the birds.

Her Mum’s place is amazing, there’s so much to look at, everywhere (so much stuff has gone in, probably nothing much has gone out!) my eyes failed to settle on any one thing!

I got to meet her amazing Uncle Toshi too who’s an EMI award winning Director (check out “Dream Window” here), he shared some footage of a job he’s working on for a Sake Brewery in Japan. Think snow, so heavy that the footage looks black and white. Lovingly framed, can’t wait to see the final results!

Max & Mia.

Since late last year I’ve noticed Max getting more and more demanding to the point of destroying stuff in the house, meowing a lot, pissing on things he’s not meant to, he even shat in the middle of my office (knowing that’s where I spend a lot of my time!!!).

He needs a LOT of love as he’s the sookiest most affectionate cat I’ve ever met. I’m hardly home at all these days so I’ve been pushing Christina to take him (being single right now I can’t help but feel like cat man too with 2 cats!), problem is, she’s got a dog! She’ll be moving out in August and can take Max then, but she’s been looking for someone to take him off me until then. The first friend fell through a few months ago, but some new friends have decided to take him on and yesterday I said goodbye.

Super sad :( Mia’s been following me around the house everywhere, she’s being all vocal now too, and hearing that Max has been hiding behind the bed of the new owners place all night and this morning too makes me feel rotten :(

Dave came around to pick up the tank this morning. It was really smelling up the entire house, so gross!

I was expecting the wooden floorboards under the tank to be totally destroyed by the salt, but hey check it out! It’s totally fine! :) Now to find something exciting to sit in the tanks place.

It’s over.

Thursday night Carmen and Alan came over to tear down my very neglected saltwater tank. Now that I work at Zen Garage I’ve just got no time for tank maintenance.

Tearing it down was a HUGE job and it’s amazing how rapidly things deteriorate when things are going bad (tank crash they call it). Carmen has taken all the fish and corals, gear too. What a mess… free 6ft tank with stand and lights if anyone wants it! I just want it gone!

Positives: The house is super quiet now, damn the tank pumps were loud. I should save thousands/year on electricity too.
