yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Long story short, in the last couple of months I've started collecting vintage cameras.
Tuesday at work, I got a call on my cell - "We're just wondering when you're going to be picking up your cameras?"I'm completely surprised, because I put in three absentee bids on three seperate bulk lots of cameras at an auction the week before and hadn't ( Read more... ) -
like rolling thunder chasing the wind
I have Toto's Africa stuck on continuous loop on my iPod at the moment in all it's cheesy 80's ballady goodness. I blame Chuck, because while I listen all I can picture singing it is Jeffster ( Read more... ) -

The fact that I'm the only one having a performance appraisal with both the team leader and the boss is something to worry about, isn't it?
It's in half an hour and I'm kinda shitting myself a bit. -
ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
This morning has started awesome - I cut my finger open tying my shoelaces, couldn't find any scissors to cut a plaster (found some in the end though), as I was walking out the door the rain started and since I am wearing Chucks my feet are drenched because I don't worry about things like hemming trousers. Also, my team leader seems to be in one ( Read more... ) -
So. Very. Sleepy.
I was actually planning on doing more this year - girl crushes (which I may still do. Maybe), movies, tv, music. Then life happened and I just don't think I'm going to get the chance (unless hubby's addiction to xBox Live continues). But I've done this for the last 4 years and I can't stop now ( Read more... ) -
Thirty Days Meme - Days 20, 21, 22, 23 & 24
Si and I went and saw Avatar at the flicks the other night and were suitably blown away. What an awesome film to escape into. It's just a shame that we don't have a 3D theatre here in Dunedin, but even without the 3D it was astounding ( Read more... ) -
Thirty Days Meme - Day 16, 17, 18 & 19
Just got back from dinner at the Ale House and Zombieland at the flicks. Been trying to post this for two days now. So here it is, posting, now I'm going to bed.
Day 16 -- A song that makes you cry (or nearly)
Not make me cry, per se, but I do have two songs that move me. The first is Cat Stevens' Father And Son, because it's so wistful and ( Read more... ) -
Thirty Days Meme - Day 12, 13, 14 & 15
I'm behind again, thanks to a work walkout by me on Friday (which I'll post about when I have more time) and a couple of days spent up in Christchurch. I have pictures to post to.
Day 12 -- Whatever tickles your fancy

Thirty Days Meme - Day 8, 9, 10 & 11
I suck, but this week has kicked my ass. To the degree that at 11am this morning, after a bout of tears, I walked up to my Team Leader and told her I couldn't be at work today, and left.
Day 08 -- A photo that makes you angry/sad
I, as a rule, don't look at pictures that make me angry. But, I definitely have a few pictures that make me sad:

Thirty Days Meme - Day 7
Work was hellish today, which seems to be a trend lately, and it's only looking to get worse as the week progresses. Couldn't be arsed getting out of bed early to go to the pools, and when we went to the pools after work the lanes were really busy, so we left. We'll definitely be getting up early to swim tomorrow ( Read more... )
