Listening to: Eisbrecher
The girls have left already. No idea how long the younger one is staying with her sister, but she’s on summer holidays now so it doesn’t matter. Lucky thing.
So, I have no distractions from the work that needs doing. *Sigh*. But first a cup of coffee and some of my music for a [...]

Mood: Starting to feel stressed
I’ve just discovered I have to write a report to go along with my presentation in just over a week and lead a discussion in the forum. Crap. As if I haven’t got enough to do with the group project.
Cold is better. Glad to got rid of the annoying tickle in [...]
I survived the teenage invasion. Took to my bedroom and watched a DVD – a movie about Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. Bill Gates came across as a real bastard. Pity he stole Apple’s concepts. I remember when we first got an Apple Mac at work – it was like a revolution after the boring [...]

Mood: tired but restless
Listening to: teenagers
I’m unsettled. I always am when there are people here – my daughter’s party. This house isn’t big enough that I can lock myself away in a corner of the house and not hear it all. It’s a tiny house so wherever I am I’m surrounded by noise and aware [...]
Sick

I’m home, sick. I have a ghastly headcold – coughing, sniffing and my head feels stuffed. The sun shines but the day’s been wasted. I spent all morning in bed.
Alas, when I thought of things to write about I couldn’t access the site.
My daughter is looking forward to Xmas but I dread it – as [...]
Kinda disappointed

Mood: Did I say I was disappointed?
Listening to: Foo Fighters on TV
Well, after all the hype and buildup I must say I’m quite disappointed at the lineup for Big Day Out 2006. I expected a big name for the second announcement as to who would be playing. Ok, Mudvayne’s ok but is that it? I’ve [...]
Random thoughts

In a strange mood today. I have things to do, but can’t find the motivation. I’ve looked at work I should be doing half-heartedly, but mostly mucked around and started reading Dan Brown’s Deception Point which I was given for my birthday. It’s ok – not rivetting, and I’m not really interested in the politics [...]
Not a bad birthday

Mood: Slightly blotto
Listening to: TV garbage
considering I had to work.
I’ve had a bit to drink – 2 bottles of beer and about 3? glasses of wine. I’m slightly inebriated and seem to have problems finding the right keys.
My brother came by today, which was nice. He took away a table, a chest and [...]
Pretty breezy day at work

Helped out with organising the sweepstakes for the Melbourne cup. Naturally I didn’t get the winning one. I never do. Even if I’d been able to choose the horse I wouldn’t have won. I would never have picked the stupidly made-up name Makybe Diva – couldn’t even pronounce it. It’s not often that the favourite [...]
