ewwwww I found the grossest thing this morning. Someone put a bag of nuts on top of the fridge without putting them into a container first. Moths ate through the bag, and there was a LOT of squirmy white grossness to deal with this morning. They'd gotten into another plastic container full of nuts (don't know how they got in), and it was just ( Read more... )

Why is it there seem to be seagulls everywhere lately? I work in Newmarket (as in, not near a beach), and I often hear them outside. Today as I pulled out of the driveway at home one of them came zooming towards my car. I thought they only hung around at beaches and rubbish tips.

Have had a lovely week, but as usual I can't wait to sleep in on ( Read more... )

Have had a mad few weeks. Usually there is about one week per month where I'm super busy at work trying to get everything done. That's the week all of my data comes through from retailers. This month I have had new retailers come on board, which means setting up from scratch, which means busy Rachel! I'm just finishing off the last of my urgent ( Read more... )

I am so excited, I can't stop giggling like a mad fool! It might be due to extreme tiredness, but it might also be to do with the new cellphone I just got given!@#$!! My bosses just gave me the new Nokia N70 3G handset!!! It's only just arrived in New Zealand, and now we all have one each. I'm not talking a company phone either, it's mine to ( Read more... )

It has been a lovely long weekend :) On Saturday I went for a massage, which was really nice. It's been months since my last one, amazing how much tension builds up in that time. I was drifting off a bit while she was massaging, and it was weird because when she'd change the way or area she was massaging, my thoughts would change with it. One ( Read more... )

Two weeks ago my parents got a phone call from some very good friends of theirs, wanting to meet for dinner, they had some exciting news. Apparently they had gone to a website, and a popup had informed them that they were the winners of a cruise for four people in the Bahamas. w00t! All they had to do was pay their own airfare, listen to a 90min ( Read more... )

Yesterday I came out of Mitre 10 to find a hole in the bumper, approximately the size of a tow bar. Sadly I did not find a note attached to my windscreen. Does my car have bad ju-ju, or is it me? So I took it back to the panel beater (who I'd only just seen a week or so ago). He laughed at me. Then he told me it'd be around the $400 mark. To ( Read more... )

My boss just told me another funny story about his kids. He shaves his head once a week, and always has done, so his kids don't know him any differently. His oldest daughter said something about daddy being bald. So his youngest pipes up and says "no, he's got hair at the back, he's just got a big forehead ( Read more... )
