And so the madhouse is alive once more. How do four people manage to create so much havoc and make so much noise and give so many headaches? It begins with the frantic cleaning - the house is already spotless that extra cleaning only makes it seem disturbingly eerily clean. Then the cooking. Then more cleaning. Then the music topped with the ( Read more... )

Our Christmas afternoon at work was a little bit of a flop. We had it at 3 thinking everyone would just eat and be merry and then go home around 430 or five. People were back at work by 345. Where's your bludging spirit? And there was ONE bottle of champagne between TWELVE of us. You do the maths ( Read more... )

I have all my results back now so uni is officially over and I dont have to go back next year. (Although I do want to ( Read more... )

I'm really disturbed by what's taking place in cronulla these days. It's just wrong. Such a hatred for difference - it's always joked about but I never thought it was so malicious and menacing. What's all this "our beach","our women" business? How dare people claim ownership over something like land - things like beaches and suburbs which belong to ( Read more... )

It's friday again. Hmmm. What happened this week? Not a lot. It seems to have dragged on and on (and on and on). But this time next week - outta here for 3 glorious weeks of .... (?)

On Friday night Andrew and I went to the Different Drummer with Jo Packer and Mike and Jo's friend Tristan who is quite nice actually, and Andrew crawford came as well as did Dani.

I had my "shopping day" yesterday - ie the day off work we are each given to go do our christmas shopping. It was wonderfully blissful. Mum took a day off work as well and we spent the whole day in hedonistic indulgence - slept in, watched so much tv (Huey's cooking adventures - twice!- murder she wrote, GMA, a dvd of mother and son...and more!)

It's been two years since I saw the whitlams so I was really excited on saturday night when Leeanne, Emma and I saw them at the Metro and it was so good. They've got beautiful visuals now to go with their music - one particular one from Tropfest which I took to be about homosexuality, and a great one which was a view from a car going down King ( Read more... )

Work xmas party last night. Fun. Night coming back in flashes. Mini Golf. Dancing. Free alcohol. James from German class. Bernadette. Wierd Madison girls. Pamela with a tattoo. I don't remember what time I left. I don't remember getting a taxi home or getting into the house or changing into my pyjamas. Yet I did all these things. Owww. Am feeling ( Read more... )

Friday was a nice end to a really awful week. There was pizza and paella and hamburgers and chocolate crackle things ( Read more... )
