i'm feeling very awful today. i seem to piss everyone off. well, englishmen anyway. just at the exact time i need them. i must have been a total c*nt in a past life to have such bad karma.

i'm watching absolutely fabulous to try and cheer myself up.

some interesting slash funny slash spooky things happened yesterday and today.
first of all, yesterday as i was walking home from work and got to the corner of the street where the building goes all the way to the end, you know the one, well as i reached it, a young guy on a home made moped came speeding around the corner on the footpath. he didn't crash into me or anything like that, but we both looked at each other and as he passed me i thought fu*k mate, you‘re fu*king gorgeous. and he was. he had beautiful soft clear skin with lips and eyes and shaggy hair and jeans full of thighs and i may have even said it out loud as he passed.
so, i went around the corner and crossed the street, and who should appear riding past me but one gorgeous boy looking behind him staring at me. luckily there was no parked cars as he would have run into one as he was looking at me. not sure what it portends or anything, but i’d like to think he was thinking the same thing as i was. woof.

so today i was walking home from work and a guy on a bike passed me and as he was cycling along this huge obese (as i found out a few moments later) samoan woman came up to the intersection in her car, stopped, and then proceded to drive into the cyclist and knock him off his bike. i'm assuming she just didn't see him, but there was no sun shining in her eyes, and he was wearing a bright flouro green jacket so i'm a bit mistified as to why she ran him down. now he got back up quickly, and wasn't hurt thankfully, and proceded to remonstrate with her. as i past them i asked if he was ok and did he need a witness, but my input wasn't required.
i just don't get how some motorists fail to see what is outside their windscreens.

and also today walking home from the supermarket carrying my bags of delicious food, i girl passed me and said hello as she walked very close to me shoulder. i recognised her from the fresh vegies section, the milk section and the cash machine by the bank. her stare as she passed me was very intense. but it was the second time she walked past me and said hello that caused me a bit of consternation. how did she walk up behind me twice without me seeing her walk back after the first time. i'm spooked. but it was the stalking, minor in nature, that made me remember her.

does anyone else have a stalker?

new boy started at work today. rumour has it he's taking over my position. curious then that no one has told me, although everyone else seems to believe it as a certainty. we‘ll see what eventuates.
he seems like a nice enough guy. apparantly, or so i heard, he walked in off the street cold calling, i believe is the terminology, just at the right time as c*nt boy had just handed in his notice. the other rumour was that he had 16 years in the fibreglass industry. but talking to him today just proves that the boss will say anything to justify his decisions. it wasn’t 16 years in the fibreglass industry. it was 16 years reading power meters for the local electricity company. but i see where the confusion arose. :-p

new washing machine arrived yesterday. old washing machine is sitting out on the driveway. clean clothes!!!!!!

puppy and i are bonding really well. he wants to play with me and wants to nuzzle me and sleep in the crook of my arm or on my chest. and he is perfectly content to stay there for hours. and it's a nice feeling to have another entity want to cuddle.

muscle boy has shaggers back, but he says he slipped a disc doing manly things with boilers and heavy weights. pffft. my story is far more plausable.

my brother finally has got around to contacting me about going out to the farm [ 43º 32' 6.74“ S - 171º 56' 45.69” E ] to get some firewood. so we're going out there early saturday morning and hopefully be back in time to unload the wood and give me time enough to get to rugby on time. yay!! warmth.

maybe people are right. i know they‘re right.
i know my job sucks, well, not the physical job itself as i really like the work, but the people at work suck major big time.

so do i give up something i like because one part of it sucks? do i cut off my right hand if it offends me?

pros i can walk to work very easily early start means early finish every day is different from the last can work alone or with colleagues

cons low pay stress from unfair abuse stress from midget boss changing the goal posts

ahhhh, i’ll work it out



had a quick wee chat to doctor boy last night. he really is the nicest man.
