My fingers hurt

Well, I'm putting all my eggs in the Apple basket.  I went with the cheapest prepaid phone option in hopes that the new iPhone will be coming out within the next few weeks in both the US and over here so I can get the latest and greatest.  And after having this:
for just 2 days, I'm slightly regretting that decision.  Typing on the old style number pad hurts, auto correct is horrible and to top it all off, they even got rid of the game Snakes (or whatever it was called).  Here's hoping that the rumors of a June release date are correct.  I can already feel the arthritis kicking in.

Pretty low key weekend.  Went to a bbq (no shrimp, seriously, I thought that was a necessity for all bbq's here) in Bondi.  The weather was great, but it is definitely starting to get cold at night (and by cold, I mean upper 50s).  Yesterday was all about buying furniture.  I still don't have a confirmed lease, but the realtor said he could guarantee I'd be in this Friday, though I'm skeptical since he originally told me I could get in this past Friday.  That better happen because I have to move out Sunday.  Buying furniture was interesting as well because I still haven't been approved for a credit card either.  Thankfully one store was able to sell me a mattress when I applied for their credit card.  If it doesn't come through hopefully the other one will.  The furniture store was nice enough to take a 10% deposit to lock the furniture in for me and then I can pay once I get some local credit.  So best case scenario I have a bed, mattress and couch this weekend.  Worst case is just a mattress for two weeks (all assuming I have an apartment to put them in).  Here's hoping...
