Paragraphs? No, not here…

Posted on November 30, 2007. Filed under: Life |

This post is going to be in bullet form here and there, because I don’t have the brainpower to string together lots of coherent sentences.
# It just took me three goes to spell “Sentences” correctly…
# I’ve been going flat out for 12 solid hours, and now that I’ve stopped, I just want to sleep. And [...]

Bird brained

Posted on November 29, 2007. Filed under: Blah Blah, Funny |

I got quite a fright this afternoon!
At the office I’m temping at, the front wall of the building has large windows that span the length of the wall. There’s a little brick ledge on both sides, outside and in.
With about 15 minutes left in the day, I just happened to look out the window and [...]

I am wanted!

Posted on November 28, 2007. Filed under: Blah Blah, Life |

I went to work again today, and cleared up more of the backlog… just keeping to myself, and trying to get as much done as I could. The other temp and I have taken to chatting to each other during our breaks, and after work by our cars, and discussing the possibility of being offered [...]

New job. Not witty.

Posted on November 27, 2007. Filed under: Life |

I tried to think of something witty for my title to tell you that I started my contract job today, but I couldn’t think of anything. Eight hours of staring at invoices and a computer screen will do that to you, I guess.
I’m very proud of myself. I got on the highway by myself, and drove [...]

Give peas a chance!

Posted on November 26, 2007. Filed under: Blah Blah, Family, Funny |

I hate peas. It’s a well-known fact. I would rather starve than eat peas, I hate them that much. Apparently I loved them when I was a baby… but I can’t picture it.
Much to Mum’s chargrin, to this day I refuse to eat peas – unless they’re served with mashed potato and I can bury [...]

New set of wheels! (aka Matt’s Mouth #5)

Posted on November 25, 2007. Filed under: Life, Matt's Mouth |

I’m looking at replacing my car next year. Right now I have a tiny 2 door Daihatsu Charade. She’s been a good car… but she needs a new engine soon and she’s very temperamental. I haven’t been driving much since I’ve taken time off work, and whenever I start the car to go somewhere, it runs rough as [...]

Australia decides

Posted on November 24, 2007. Filed under: Life |

I’m very late with my post today, it’s not quite 11pm, and had it not been for NaBloPoMo, I probably wouldn’t have bothered.
But, I have just been a part of, and just witnessed, history taking place.
The Australian federal election was held today – the first federal election that I have been able to vote in.
Then [...]

HAPPY Friday!

Posted on November 23, 2007. Filed under: Life |

I got some great news today – I have a job! WOOHOO!
I’m still waiting to get the address and the specific details, but it’s in a suburb about 10 minutes away, and I’ll be there for two weeks doing data entry, creditor queries and writing cheques. Two weeks isn’t very long, I know, but I [...]

The tale of Chicken

Posted on November 22, 2007. Filed under: Family, Life, Rants |

I forget the main thing I was going to write about today… so I guess it can’t have been that important!
We got some good news though, as we had expected. The infection on Dad’s hand is either a fungal infection, or a germ. Still gross, but a lot better than the c-word.
I was hoping to [...]

Gym happy!

Posted on November 21, 2007. Filed under: Life |

I finished my 12 week gym challenge last week. I’d had my final weight recorded, but not my measurements.
I got measured tonight, and… *drumroll*
in 12 weeks, I lost 22.7cm – that’s 8.9 inches. I’ve already forgotten the exact measurements for all body parts, but I can tell you that I lost 6cm off both my [...]
