The year that was

Well, it has been a year since I started blogging. One whole year. And this will be my 99th post. I'm ok with that. I was always a cent short of the dollar, so 99 posts is kinda appropriate.

homelife
Well in the past year I moved. And moved. And moved. And moved again. Yes folks, thats FOUR moves. Just for one fecking job. I hope that this is my last move, until I go back to Queensland that is.

career
I can only think of the saying 'I used to think I wanted a career, turns out I only wanted a paycheck'. That is all this job is at the moment for me. I have the potential to go far where I am at the moment, but I will never grow emotionally in Sydeny, so I'm already looking to head back to Queensland.

relationships
the best casual sex I've ever had in my life. But on a more serious note... I got nothing.

friends
Made quite a few :). Though mostly through blogging :(. I have quite a few real people friends, but only a few that I see outside of work with any frequency.

odd instances and randomness
quite a few spring to mind, like when I got crabs.

technologically
still trying to figure out how to link and post pictures. Seriously, has someone put out a 'blogspot for dummies' yet? or is it still being edited. I can do all of it, I just don't have the inclination to sit down and read instructions.
But I did get broadband.

biggest purchase
CLANCY. I heart my gay car. Pics still pending.

best aquisition
my cats. Technically I already had a cat this time last year, but she was still all new and kittenish.

fridges owned
4

finances
are something I'd rather not worry about. So I don't. Big numbers are better right? Maybe not on the credit card bills though...

*SIGH*

I have returned from the land of sunshine and happy relaxation. Otherwise known as Queensland.

I have returned from the place of randomness, where I can hug anybody on a whim, and where being flicked with fishwater after a biiig night out seems normal. And by this I mean college.

I get to my street, and the person who is supposed to be looking after my cats is crossing the road. Cue a wave. Keep driving. I get home, walk in the door, and immediately remember why it was I kept SR around.

The house stinks, its like I've been slapped in the face by the smell. The litter tray hasn't been cleaned in about 5 days (thats a very conservative estimate), there is vomit in the hallway, cat hair all over the bathroom, urine in the KITCHEN sink (*ewww... where's my bleach*). Boots hasn't been given any medication, and their food looked old. Seriously, it is dry food and it looked old. Not to mention the fact that they had been fed the wrong food, so for the next three days I will have to endure the stench as one cat's digestive system returns to normal. And the back door was unlocked.

I call her. She claims she hasn't been there for three days (litter tray tells me 5), and that seeing as I am now home she's not coming in. Then hangs up on me. Not a wise move. I let her know, way more agressively than I should have, the conditions that the cats were left in, and that she will never make it working with animals if she will let them get to that point.

So fresh from my holidays I have to clean all of this up, get all of the mail since last Wednesday, head to the post office and pick up my *new* braodband modem, and set that up too.
Being tired, stressed and angry, I re-aquaint myself with my BOBs, head for a shower and get into my jammies. Ready for a night of blogging.

I decide to go to KFC for dinner, and just toss on my new jacket and do drive through. The guy at the window was TEH HOTNESS!!! OMG. And there I was, sitting in this sexy new jacket, with pajama bottoms, and my car in reverse (cuz I'd aimed at the wrong bit of the window and had to back Clancy up), and I swear he noticed it all. Some things will never change.

Part of me prays that he thought I was having a dinner break from being a clown.

Banalism

So I never really understood where Steph got ‘banality’ from. But now I do. BLOODY ANALism

So I am officially on holidays. Yay for me. I am pumped. This time tomorrow I’ll be in Queensland. WOO

___________________________________________
Heres the banalism
I like to write lists, when I have lots to do, and cant really forget anything, especially when I’m going on holidays. I think it stems from the fact my mum used to write lists of what to pack when we went on holidays. So we didn’t forget anything.

Weird trivia bits
I always forget to put pajamas on my list. But I always remember, and they always end up there, on the bottom of the list, and I cross it out just after I write it on there.
I always put my list on the list too, so that when I’m packing to return, I know I wont forget anything.
