Ouch :(
Get to Christchurch in the middle of the night and 'low and behold discover that I can't hardly walk without lots of pain and wanting to spew and not looking forward to what I assumed would be crappy hotel beds. On this point I was unfortunately not disappointed and the bed I found myself spending the night in was indeed soft, soggy and in no way ( Read more... ) -
The Odyssey Begins
Right this moment I am supposed to be getting ready to go off to New Zealand and getting ready to pack my stuff I am totally ambivalent about going. I feel like I need a holiday but holidays in foreign countries (regardless of how close or similar in culture they may be) tend to involve a lot of stuffing around. Airport transfers, manhandling ( Read more... ) -
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire.... no hang on it's just shaking to pieces in front of us.
It's late. Again. And it's noisy. Again. And I'm tired. Again.
Like sands through an hourglass... this is the soundtrack to my life :|
Really really tired.... and feeling really rather... oh what's the word I'm looking for... PISSED OFF!!! Yes I think that's about it at this point The roadworks are still going and we're so sick of the ( Read more... ) -
Epic fail... here I come.
I had written something angsty about struggling with my current assignment but someone who shall remain nameless closed my browser before I hit the publish butter and all was lost. Never mind it was just a critical apprication of Homer's The Odyssey in 500 words or less - I swear I've accidentally enrolled at the Reader's Digest University or ( Read more... ) -

Today I got sent a 'friend request' from someone I don't actually know. Normally this is a no brainer... there's the 'ignore' button... CLICK!
But this friend request came from a relative. A relative I've never met and am unlikely to meet in the foreseeable future given that this person lives in Canada-da and I'm all the way down here in Aus- ( Read more... ) -
I think someone is going through my trash....
Okay so I just did this weird little 'What colour are you?" Facebook bit of stuff and nonsense test cos... well I'm in front of the computer and have this OCD like compulsion to fill in these damn things when they're put in front of me. There was only a few questions - below - and then it spat out saying that I am 'green'.... which I am definitely ( Read more... ) -
I've been too fucking busy... or vise versa ;)
Haven't been putting much down of late... probably because I'm a bit overwhelmed with the complete cluster fuck that is going on around me at the moment.... house... uni... family... it's all too much I tell you! Something's going to blow!
The house is in a general state of chaos and has been for over 12 weeks now. This extension is going to be ( Read more... ) -
Sadness....
Three days ago, a sixteen year old girl who lived around the corner from us committed suicide ( Read more... ) -
Would you like lies with that?
I had a very proud moment as a parent on the weekend. The Small Child is studying space at school this semester (space and insects, not sure of the correlation but ours is not to wonder why) so I've acquired two seasons of a documentary series called The Universe.
We've watched the episodes on The Sun, Black Holes, Mars, The End of the Earth, ( Read more... )
