Hmm birthday Wednesday. My daughter’s guitar teacher has a birthday the following day. I must say he is cute, but he’s a lot younger – hell most people are, it seems. She told him it was my birthday and asked him to guess my age, as most people get it wrong. He first guessed 31 [...]

So my Saturday evening starts

Mood: cruisy
Listening to: german rock
I haven’t yet made dinner – might cook myself some pork. I’m currently reviewing a few old tapes and making one up for the long drive north in January (well, may as well while I think of it). I don’t have a CD player in my car.
I’ve just scanned a few [...]

Mood: relaxed
Listening to: Richie Havens
I went to buy tickets for Big Day Out yesterday. At over 200 I didn’t want to withdraw from my account, since I have a few bills to pay, so decided to use the credit card. Get this – the store that sells the tickets don’t accept credit any more! WTF? [...]
Slept in

Mood: Relaxed
Listening to: Oomph
God, it was nice. Weird dreams and I’d wake briefly to look at the time and think yeah I should get up soon and sleep another hour. When I did get up I still felt groggy.
So I’ve had a nice lazy day. Browsed the net, checking emails. It’s fine with my friend [...]

Ha. My daughter just informed me that tickets are now on sale for Big Day Out. So I’ve been ordered to purchase a ticket and one for me as well. Last year (or rather, January this year!) we went along and it was great. I wasn’t really into System of a Down, but knew the [...]

Mood: reflective
I was kind of tetchy yesterday. I got angry at work and lost my temper briefly. Not a good sign. And after today’s email I just need a day off work – a mental health day, if you like. Just a day to myself to reflect, to think, to sort, to relax and look [...]
Surprise visit

My brother turned up about 1.30. He’d tried to get through on the phone but of course I was on here earlier! 15 minutes after he got here I had to pick daughter up so left him to it. He’d packed his car with more boxes of stuff. I think he’s taken some of mine [...]
Browsing the web

Mood: muddled
Listening to: Eisbrecher
I was just visiting this site – no intention to update. Didn’t have anything to update. But now I’m here I may as well. But it will be random as thoughts emerge.
I should be doing other things, especially considering I have to go out again soon.
My daughter is with friends, took her [...]

Bro decided not to drop by, which was good. Daughter got dropped off by her father in her ‘new’ car! He bought her a cheap little Subaru Justy to learn to drive on. She wanted a manual, rather than automatic, so she’s happy. I hope it’s reliable – it’s a little jerky while driving.
So took [...]
The return of people
Posted in home on 9 October, 2005 | Leave a Comment »
I’ve had the house to myself which has been brilliant for working, but a little lonely.
My brother had planned to return today to take away some more of his stuff. I’m hoping he’ll leave it for sunnier weather as it’s still wet and cold and not the nicest of times to try and sort through [...]
