Jelly
Its funny how you can feel as miserable as you never knew possible, and the smallest gesture is enough to get you through your day. Let me explain...
I got some really bad (AWFUL) news today at work. Yes, I do work on public holidays, at 7:30 am. But that wasn't the bad news. My last remaining Grandparent passed away this morning. I was feeling all shite and trying to ignore what I was feeling (never crossed my mind to leave work - had to get everything organised for the guys looking after my stuff for the next couple of days). Anyhoo, at morning tea the guy of my current dreams is wandering around, busy as a blue arsed blowfly, and he takes some time to come in and sit down with everyone. The thing is he dropped in to tell me he'd returned a book that I'd lent him, and he ended up sitting next to me and we were discussing the lunch everyone was having to celebrate Chinese New Year tomorrow, and what was in the BigW catalogue. It was a teeny weeny conversation, but seeing as we never really get to talk, it made me feel a bit better.
***Have you ever noticed that if you read a book after a guy you're interested in, it smells really really nice. I wish this guy had read the book I'd lent him.***

So much to say...
I was walking past a church the other day and there was sign out the front that said 'Faith is a journey, not a destination'. And I thought 'yeah'. Then I walked past another church, about 250m further down, and there was a sign taped to the door that said 'alarm has been activated'. Maybe they have a different kind of faith there.
Dumbness moment #64,028 "Plant is the new black"
I had a discussion the other day at work about the new black.
I was looking through a catologue and they had these bikini's in there. They were brown, but because of the reflection on the paper, it looked like an odd kind of aubergine/eggplant colour. And they had another label there, saying 'the new black' and an arrow pointing to the top.
I could swear the top was brown, but this catologue was telling me it was plant. What the hell colour is called 'plant'? I thought it was short for aubergine/eggplant. Turns out I had misread the catologue label, and the label was bikini pant. No L. Oops.
That discussion went on for about 6 minutes before I realised my mistake.
And finally...
Random thought #164
To dream of a black midget stealing sex toys whilst staying in a hotel, means that indeed, you should have had sex the night before.

I'm Checking In...
Every time I get stressed and/or tired I get that tune in my head... you know, its from the Simpsons, about the Betty Ford Clinic. (Iiiiii'm Checkin In).
This weekend has been awful. Everything has gone wrong. I've been second guessing everything I've done in the past six months. No, I take that back, since May. Since I moved down here. I dont know If I've done something seriously wrong at work, or if someone else has come in on a weekend to mate some dogs and not made sure the boy is locked away. I guess I'll find out soon enough. I'll get raked over the coals on Monday, flayed alive, and dipped in rancid vinegar.
The bitch is moving out too. Couldn't handle me trying to get her to pay her bills and help clean up. I must say I'm glad, and can't wait for it to happen, but its all happened on a shit weekend. She's had milk in the fridge that went off before new years. I noticed it the other day because it had seperated. Apparently its too much to get her to throw it out. And dont even get me started on the fortnight old chicken. That I put in the fridge. Three hours after it was cooked.
So the problems at work, coupled with the shit at home, is making me go insane. And I'm taking it all out on everybody else.
Pass me the booze.

Viva le bargain hunting
I decided recently that I needed a new dvd player, based on the fact that my old one was no longer turning on. Seems reasonable to me. I had also decided that an air conditioning unit would be of great advantage this summer.
So yesterday afternoon I went to the Good Guys (retailers who sell electrical appliances, less for cash). I managed to pick up an LG DVD player for $90. My flatmate had bought the exact same model, for cash, two days previously, for $99. I managed top pick up a portable evaporative cooler for $90, down from $99.
I then decided I had enough money left in my wallet to try to pick up an mp3 player. So I went into another store, that had a larger range of mp3 players. Standing at the counter I was talking to the guy, counted my money in front of him, and said that was all I had. He checked how much
he could discount a few different types of mp3 player to. It was $5 more than I had, so he let me put some of the cost on the card. I managed to get a Sony 512MB mp3 palyer (valued at $180), for $140.
The joy of having breasts.

Correction
The last post read
"Happy New Year Everybody. Its 44 C here. Waaay to hot to be near a piece of machinery in a poorly ventilated area."
It was actually about 48, both inside the house and out. The air con was doing sweet FA, except using a hell of a lot of electricity, and the motor on my fan burnt out. One of the girls at work had her thermometer acutally blow out the top AFTER 50C.
