I can choose between the following:
"Delicata Andrew" and "Satish Sehgal".
I think I like Delicata, it feels right plus it's a female-sounding name.
Had a nice relaxed weekend. Friday night G and I caught up on the sleep we'd missed out on the previous night (see previous post), then Saturday morning we went to the mall. G got two CDs and we had brunch there. We went to the ATMs before having brunch and there was a queue for the two of my bank's ATMs but one guy left the one ATM and said something to the guy in front of me, who when I asked what was wrong (because he wasn't going to that ATM and he was next in the queue) said that the ATM had swallowed the other chap's card. "no big deal, if it's swallowed it, it's in the machine now and shouldn't cause trouble with my card" I reckoned, so I went to use the ATM. Tried to put my card in, it didn't go in, instead it spat the other chap's card out! Credit card too, so I took it and looked around for the guy but he was gone. G and I had a nice trek to find the nearest BRANCH of that bank, cos strangely they don't have one in the mall (silly, really). Felt really strange to be walking around with someone else's credit card in my pocket!!
Went to G's parents for a bit while he did washing, then went out with sis and "her" G and my G for supper to celebrate her birthday. Had a lekker supper and stayed over. Came home Sunday morning and just relaxed. Not often do we get a chance to just BLOB. Sit lazily on the couch, or lie in bed and blob. So we did that. Went to the shop first, got the vital groceries, but then had a nap afterwards - LOVELY! Read and blobbed, G tried to fix his record player but the elastic has broken. We were going to "copy" LPs onto the computer to put on CDs in case the LPs get scratched or the record player (mom's) breaks. We'll have to kidnap mom's record player for a bit.
Back at work now. Still haven't had a chance to try out the DMC cross stitch program that I got from W/S :D Can't wait! Gotta do a waterchange too, and iron some clothes. Eish gotta go to the laundry today. This is a very boring part of this blogpost :P
Back work. It's cold and I have allergies and the state of being cold and sneezy is exacerbated by the fact that the painters have hbbm's windows open and are painting with varnish - cold and stinky. LOL. Today is still "new" so it's gonna be a loooooonnnnnnnnnnnnng day.

Thoughtful...
Seems I'm most likely to blog when I am thinking a lot. I guess that is what blogs are about hey?
Was going through my cellphone phonebook, and saw someone's name in it. It's strange how a person can embody the concept of 'could have been'. We could have been great friends, we seemed to get on very well, or at least that's what I thought. She was just 'biding her time', "letting" me keep her company because it (to her) must have seemed to make me happy, regardless of whether she actually enjoyed it. That knowledge somehow completely nulls any enjoyment I actually got from her company.
Ok the stuff above I typed a while ago, but saved it as a draft.
Last night the asshole neighbours were playing music very loudly. I couldn't sleep. At 1:30am I logged onto the computer, downloaded antivirus and antispyware updates and ran those. I went to the lounge and tried to sleep on the couch at about 3am. I managed to doze off til about 4am. The lounge is the only place where their music doesn't penetrate as much, cos their front door/lounge is right by our bedroom window, and the kitchen/computer room gets the noise coming through their rooms through our kitchen. Earlier I'd gone outside enraged and went around to see where the noise was coming from and the fuckers had their lights off and their door WIDE OPEN so that the whole fucking city could enjoy their music. After sleeping on the couch for a while, I went back to bed but they were still playing music and talking very loudly. I fell asleep (passed out) at 4:30, and here I am at work now half-dead at 11am after getting up at 7. Thank you, FUCKERS, for 2,5 hours of sleep!!!!!!!!!!
I just phoned the rental agency, spoke to the woman there. She said she'd get hold of them. I also told her about the lovely couple upstairs who get drunk and then argue and fight and throw things around.
FUCK YOU ALL! BASTARDS!!! 4:30 in the morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I feel like I'm an undead. I'm so irritated already this week, this just TOPS IT OFF!!
Hbbm's gone out for meetings and hopefully to enjoy some golf, if the weather holds. Hold thumbs that the weather holds, I don't feel up for much work today. This morning I was having my breakfast oats and coffee at my desk, so he calls me to type up an email for him, IN THE MIDDLE of my eating. He KNOWS I was eating, he even commented on the fact that it looked like kid's/baby's cereal (mush). But it doesn't matter, the email can't WAIT 3minutes!
I'm so tired of this place. Just when I thought things were going to be good and I'd have something worthwhile to do, it gets snatched away from me. I thought I was hbbm's PA, and I asked the accountant to confirm it (cos the job title is printed on my payslip), and she informed me that the bosses decided my job title is 'admin assistant'. What the fuck is an admin assistant???? Dogsbody? That's like even less of a job title than receptionist!!! How the hell will that look on my CV? "I have 4.5 years experience as a receptionist and x years as a ... well... um... I did PA duties but officially I was admin assistant..." Gosh, it's not allowed that someone actually feels proud and motivated in their job? "Heavens no! I mean, imagine, her actually liking her work? No, that's not on, by jove, she'll get a big head and think she's important and meaningful and appreciated *gasp*. Only us head honchos can get job satisfaction, you know. Along with our fat pay! Hehehe, go us!!!"
So anyway, I'm admin assistant, doing PA duties. It's so petty. I hate it. Just let me do work, and acknowledge it and allow me headroom to ENJOY IT and grow into it and feel motivated. To quote a graffiti: *fuckshitup!*
What is news. I miss my budgie. My fish (the congo tetras) are randy and lay eggs all the time.
I feel like a zombie. I want to curl up in bed and just sleep. It's cold and rainy too, so that is making me want to cuddle up too.
*yaaaaaaaaaaawnnnnnnnnnnnnns*

When's payday?
Tomorrow. But as soon as my pay comes in, it goes straight out. I still owe my sis so much anyway, that whatever's left accumulates to be transferred to her = nothing left.
I'm irritated and I don't know why.
It's hot. I'm tired.
I hate weekends which don't let you relax. I hate ironing.
The fishtank is clean. The dishes are done, the flat is vacuumed. I'm not hungry, it's hot.
I'm tired of not earning money enough to HAVE any left. Medical aid "helps" but I have to submit things that I've already paid for and they sometimes don't cover those things and then it's paid for by me only.
I don't like shitty doctors. I don't like stupid people who don't give a shit about other people. Correction: I hate people like that.
I would like a budgie here but don't have the energy to even decide because there's always stuff to be done. I wish Warpony's first half was finished. I wish those damn cross-stitch company people hadn't fucked up and that I'd received the kits ages ago.
I want to sleep late and not go anywhere. For a month at least. I'm annoyed because my Indian truck t-shirt was messed up in the wash. Mom must have washed it with the rest of the clothes (in a hot wash) and the rubbery print on it melted and smudged in some places, and all over the front collar and stuff. It should have been handwashed, which is what I always do but it must have somehow crept into the wash with the other clothes. I can't go back to India to buy another one.
Friday was a write-off at work. The ITs and people helping them were there the entire day, sorting our machines out and working on the server/network. We now have domain profiles which is SO DAMN SLOW when you have to restart. There wasn't any way for the receptionist to get to the faxes that came in to the faxserver box, and hbbm was flitting around frazzled because the emails didn't work either. He tends to get in a tizzy very quickly about things like that. It's tiring because you have to placate him because there is NOTHING that you can do to FIX what is wrong because they're busy with it. Agh!
It's Monday tomorrow. Yuck.
Our adsl line is being subsidised, which is EXCELLENT! Saves us a bit of $ but that gets absorbed into other costs like electricity, groceries.
I'm still irritated. It's annoying when things just HAVE to be difficult. Like... agh I dunno, can't think of anything. When things HOOK on other things and prevent you getting them loose while you're busy doing something. Urrrrhhh!!
*sigh*
I hate that retard in the block of flats next door to us, he played LOUD bloody music this morning at 9:15. A SUNDAY MORNING, you SHIT! Fuck you!
I can't think of anything to write. I know this is a complainy whiny post but so what. I felt like saying it and I have so that's that. At least I don't phone you (reader) and rant on and on at you about it :P
Things we want to buy one day: stove/oven. Combo washmachine/tumbledryer. Couches. Those are the big things. Not fun things, necessary things. Can't think about "fun" things to buy now. Or spending money on things that aren't necessary.
I hate cockroaches and wish they'd all die now. I'm tired of spraying the hell out of them and them still running and hiding somewhere. I hate the way they peek out from under the drying rack and I can't spray them cos then I'd be poisoning us. Then they run around under the edge of the sink and I can't get them there either cos they disappear. And I may be hard-hearted but I don't like it when cats try to be cutesy and pushy and try to rub against you when you obviously don't feel like it. I don't want to encourage them, because any moment that we might slip up and leave the door/window open they'd get in and maybe eat stuff in the kitchen or kill my fish (or bird, when we get one).
It's 21:00 already. Time for bed to wake up early tomorrow. Oh and Tuesday morning I'm playing receptionist-dumbass again for the morning because the new lady is going to see someone at the college about studies etc etc blabla. At least hbbm is away but I have plenty of work to do before he comes back.
I wish my hair would grow quickly so that I don't have to fuss with these clips.
That's all for now, I think.

It's 1-FUCKING-AM!
I am at my computer.
You are playing your FUCKING music so FUCKING loud that I am FULLY awake! You're also all talking SO FUCKING LOUDLY I feel as though I'm at the party MYSELF, despite having been IN BED!
FUCK YOU!!
Don't know if it'll help even a tiny fucking bit but, come Monday morning, I will be phoning the landlords and complaining. About YOU, and about the pointless FUCKS upstairs.

It... is... HOT
Today the temperature outside was 41C. I didn't go outside at all, not only because I was on switchboard duty.
And it's still hot now. Apparently today's discomfort index was 45C!!
S (in USA) tried phoning the cross-stitch company I'd ordered GI and GS from... couldn't get through, he tried to email them, phoned them again and their mailbox is full. J his wife checked with people on her stitching forums and apparently the people who own that online shop are old and might be sickly. Anyway, the gist of it: we have to get the credit card company to refund us and follow it up with the site. Damn! I just want my kits :(
So now I'm looking online for them again.
I'm having a good time (so far) at work, I now have my own (hand-me-down) pc which although only a 256mb ram, 40gb hd, 751MHz processor, old one, is decent enough. The front USB ports aren't connected and there's a not-working floppy drive (also not connected). Problem with the back USB ports is they're on the same "block" as the keyboard and mouse plugs, and it's loose. So if I fiddle with a USB thing, the keyboard stops working and I have to restart. Bummer. Anyway, not often I'd need a flashstick I reckon.
According to secret sources we are probably getting a new TV. Source: G. CAN'T WAIT! Ok nothing much is on TV, but still! According to a friend of ours, the Simpsons is on EVERY DAY on Mnet open-time...!!!!! WE'RE MISSING THE SIMPSONS!??!?!
Oh and: the Simpsons movie? Definitely wanna see that! Saw Night at the Museum last week, it was EXCELLENT! Very sweet, funny, exciting movie hehe!
Still sad about Honey being put down. I so vividly remember the day we got her. Her breeders came from a long way away, and we met them at our Gran's place. Chose her from 2 they'd brought (they'd delivered all the others on the way). She was restless in the car on the way home, and finally found a spot and settled down in the footwell by my feet! Aww so cute! I remember it all hehe. That was over 16 years ago.
After this payday, my finances should be back on track... I'll be broke straight away after being paid cos it's paying things, but once that's done and I've got through the lean month to the following payday, I should be back to normal. YEAH!!!!!!!!! Ok still paying off to Sis, but that's ok. I should be a few hundred R wealthier after we get the money back from the credit card co.
*yawn* this week has been quite long. The days go quicker now cos I'm busier but it's more fun! I'm actually going to enjoy getting hbbm's office into ORDER!!!!! Untidiness! Pff!!!!! He's quite enjoying how it's working: he dictates an email, I type it, send it, print it, stick it in a file. Done! Hehe I like that too. So quite an up in the job-satisfaction level!
I hate cockroaches - we have quite a lot in the kitchen. Less than when we just moved in, but still. Only medium, small and tiny ones. The MASSIVE mofos probably can't get into the place and besides: they have a LOVELY portuguese restaurant to patronise!
Ooh, it's been a while since I did something on my blog... ok will do it tomorrow >;)

Erm
I'm back in the land of the living... this has been one WONKY mutha week hehe!
Ok went back on Thursday after being off sick on Tues and Wed, felt GHASTLY but survived, and Friday I had a very very sore tummy. Still felt a bit weak. Phoned "my" doc that morning (he'd said I should phone him if it wasn't right by Friday), left a msg. Phoned again in the afternoon, still no reply. So I phoned G's doctor's office, made an appointment with a doctor there. Had to arrange with the ppl at work for someone to take my place at the switchboard (!) because the receptionist had gone to register for part-time studies. Honestly I've done so much switchboard duty this 3-day week! Anyway, JUST as I'm like leaving, she comes back. Thank heavens... but anyway so I got to leave late because she has to like nag/ask me questions about "how do I" which is like DUH because surely she's had SOME computer training/anything. ANYWAY.
So we drive in a hurry but slowly cos of the shitty traffic to the doctor. I missed the appointment (the doctor'd left already!) but got to see another doctor after a wait. It was very strange cos the doctor had the window wide open and the electric fan on FULL power. It was rather windy in his office. Weird. Anyway, after going hmm and hmm a bit, he guessed it was probably constipation ("want to take a bet?") so I had an x-ray and saw him again and it was. Sigmoid colon. So damn sore, such a simple thing hehe. Anyway got some sachets of stuff to drink and the following morning my tummy wasn't sore anymore!
Oh yay, Monday morning I'm doing switchboard duty for however long because the receptionist is going to register because she didn't get to Friday. YAY!!
Tuesday the ITs are supposed to come and sort my computer setup out. I'm using the company's laptop and I don't want to do ANYthing on it like surft/msn.
This blog post is a little "deurmekaar" but that's how my mind is at the moment. It's like catching up after being away for a week hehe!
I've been tidying my stuff, going through my stuff, I have a whole STACK of things to sort through right next to me. I'm going to have to bring another bookshelf from home, and possibly buy some "inbox trays" hehe. I need to make shelves for this stuff: cords, manuals, chargers, etc etc LOL!
ANYWAY... bleh don't feel like sorting it all out now hehe. It's weekend.
Oh AND ABOUT WEEKEND!
These retard dumbass mofos in this block of flats (and the next door one) don't understand NIGHT TIME. They slam doors, talk/shout loudly (specially when walking past our bedroom window), at all hours of the night (morning). The people upstairs from us, omg! Domestic fights! And the previous night, it sounded like one of them was stuck trying to get out of an Oros-man suit... making squeaking thudding sounds all around the room above us! SERIOUSLY WEIRD! And then at like 9:30 this morning (sunday) someone next door to us decides to hammer a nail into the wall. WEIRD PEOPLE!
Ok anyway, I'm gonna try get stuck into at least SOME things here, so that when I'm back at work tomorrow I have at least achieved something.. OH DAMN, I have to do a waterchange!!!! Ok ciao Romano!!

Oh yay, Monday morning I'm doing switchboard duty for however long because the receptionist is going to register because she didn't get to Friday. YAY!!
Tuesday the ITs are supposed to come and sort my computer setup out. I'm using the company's laptop and I don't want to do ANYthing on it like surft/msn.
This blog post is a little "deurmekaar" but that's how my mind is at the moment. It's like catching up after being away for a week hehe!
I've been tidying my stuff, going through my stuff, I have a whole STACK of things to sort through right next to me. I'm going to have to bring another bookshelf from home, and possibly buy some "inbox trays" hehe. I need to make shelves for this stuff: cords, manuals, chargers, etc etc LOL!
ANYWAY... bleh don't feel like sorting it all out now hehe. It's weekend.
Oh AND ABOUT WEEKEND!
These retard dumbass mofos in this block of flats (and the next door one) don't understand NIGHT TIME. They slam doors, talk/shout loudly (specially when walking past our bedroom window), at all hours of the night (morning). The people upstairs from us, omg! Domestic fights! And the previous night, it sounded like one of them was stuck trying to get out of an Oros-man suit... making squeaking thudding sounds all around the room above us! SERIOUSLY WEIRD! And then at like 9:30 this morning (sunday) someone next door to us decides to hammer a nail into the wall. WEIRD PEOPLE!
Ok anyway, I'm gonna try get stuck into at least SOME things here, so that when I'm back at work tomorrow I have at least achieved something.. OH DAMN, I have to do a waterchange!!!! Ok ciao Romano!!

Day 3 of being unwell
My tummy has stayed sore, and I have had headaches on and off... had eyeball pain most of the time. Haven't slept well, feeling very restless.
Phoned in to work today, got through to the accountant doing switchboard duty - that meant the receptionist was - dare I say it - LATE?! Omg that's... UNACCEPTABLE?!?! Whatever! She was late the first day I got there, she came about 15 mins late... reason? Taxis. Pfff!! That'll never hold anything for the bosses *sniggers* I've done my time being LATE because of METROFUCKINGFAIL and being crapped on for something that was beyond my bloody control............
Ok I'm breathing...........................
*breathes*
spent most of the day in bed, dozing fitfully as the maintenance guys sawed through burglar bars and drilled through stone etc. Ok they probably weren't doing that, but they were making a helluva lot of noise working on the vacant flat next door. I've been enjoying paint smell as they've taken off the burglar bars and repainted them.
Went to the doc, the doc says it might be a VERY mild case of tummy flu (which would be so mild I wouldn't puke), or IBS or something. So I have tabs to make me better :) Back to work tomorrow if I'm up for it. If not, it's back to the doc to get a doctor's certificate. I guess.
Mom and sis took our oldie dog to the vet today, to be put to sleep. Poor old stinky. Apparently she was having a good day and was all alert and bright. It's good that way, cos then her last day wasn't an uncomfortable, unhappy one. They had a 15:30 appointment but had to wait cos the vet was out with a horse with colic. They had a good wait though, a peaceful one cos Honey was alert and interested in her surroundings and when sis went around the corner to buy some cooldrink, she wanted to follow her. Sis waited in the waiting room, mom went in but came out before the vet did his thing. I agree with mom: I couldn't stand to see a dead Honey.
RIP doggiedog...

The Telkon guy came on Friday to install the phone line and the adsl stuff... and I tried to set it all up and it DIDN'T work. When G came home from work, he tried to sort it out - still didn't work. Tried dial up, and it worked but terribly slowly.
Went this morning and bought a phone, it's now charged and ready hehe.
Went to Synd and got sis to switch the router there off (it's got my username and password set up) so that we could try the net when we got home, and VOILA!! It's worked! Strangest bloody thing ever... but anway. Bloody glad that we don't have to phone Telkon and get someone to come out and sort it out blablabla.

Cheers for now!

A long post... catching up
Ok it's 10th Jan now, I've been posting everything into a wordpad document which I'm going to copy and paste now. I'll add stuff in another post if I feel like it LOL
Ok, what all has been going on since I last posted properly...
After flat-sitting for about 2 months, finally someone took G's flat. In those flat-sitting hours which were from 17:30 to 19:30 every weekday and from 9:00 to 11:00 every Saturday (almost like detention but at home), I got a lot done on Warpy. I'm nearly finished the first half, his face, which seems the more time-consuming half because it's all blending and different colours. The other half, his neck, is mostly shades of white. With hand-prints. And a feather. I'm so amped to get the face-half done! Wanted to finish it before the end of 2006 (that's LAST YEAR already!), but that was *rather* optimistic.
With 2 weeks til the end of the year and no place to go, G heard of a place through his previous/at-the-time rental agency, and we went to see it. I have blogged about it already, and am going to post pics too. We decided to take the place with (for now) a 6 months lease, in case it turned out to be dreadful and we wanted to move asap. So in the 2nd last week of the year, we got the keys (it'd been vacant) and moved G's stuff to the new flat. Was a mission carrying boxes and boxes down 3 flights of stairs; my legs felt so rubbery after that! Luckily there wasn't much that we ourselves couldn't move, all that was left was the bed, cupboard, drawers, 2 bookshelves, a desk, 3 couches, a tv-cabinet, a kitchen countertable and a bar fridge.
G's gran was down from Jhb for Xmas, and we had Xmas lunch at his parents' place. Was lovely - a delicious lunch and all smiles. Got cool gifts too! G's gran also told us she was going to pay for a removal van to transport our stuff, rather than us battle with it. Ah, grandparents! Organised that and got them to take G's furniture, and my wardrobe, bookshelf, desk and drawers. The rest of the stuff was small stuff or full of non-vital stuff and not particularly useful to us in the new place (stuff I'd need to sort through at some stage - procrastination!!).
We'd had Xmas eve celebrations at my place, basically gift-opening and stuff, and then we'd had a 2nd Xmas lunch on 26th Dec. M and J came too. More DELICIOUS food and fun!
Ok so then we'd finally moved everything in to the new place but we were sans bed and, since the fridge is a bar fridge and we were going to get a bigger (proper) one soon, we didn't plug the fridge in. So we were all but moved in.
Went between my place and the flat to move stuff and basically everything is here now.
Went shopping a few days later, and bought a big bed and a big fridge. It was to be delivered the Friday. We stayed over at my place the Thurs night, and left home quite early to be there when the stuff was delivered. We waited the whole day. G phoned at about 16:30, and heard that the Town deliveries only go out at 16:00. Nice, after waiting the entire day! We waited some more. He phoned a few more times. We sat outside in the warm evening air as it approached 19:00. "They'll be here at about 20:15", according to the person on the phone. We waited some more. And more. It was going on for 22:00. We were staying over at my place again that night, and decided to leave then. I was basically packing my bag when G announced "guess who's arrived". At 22:05, our fridge and bed were delivered. If they'd come 5 mins later, we'd have left already. The "excuse" for coming so late? "there were roadblocks". Sure, *that's* credible… but only if the delivery note didn't say that the items were checked out at 17:48 for delivery! So basically, when G phoned the first time, they hadn't even bloodywell sent it off yet. Nice one.
Thinking now, about what else to blog about. The neighbours... or now (thankfully) EX-neighbours. Lovely people. The days that we'd been delivering things and packing stuff in the flat, we had heard kids shrieking and going on like mad. All day long. Not a WHISPER of a "shhh" from either of their parents. They would bounce a massive (about the size of a basketball) inflatable tennis ball ALL AROUND THE ENTIRE BLOCK OF FLATS! Around and around and around! For hours on end. If they weren't doing that, they were running around the entire building, running past/under our bedroom window which is on the same side of the building as their porch/balcony-thing. Oh yes, and G's car is parked just across from our bedroom window, and it's on a raised level so it's about 1.5m higher than the ground by the building. The kids would bounce their ball against the little wall/edge of the raised bit G's car is parked on, and it'd inevitably bounce up, and it bashed his car's grille and I heard it bounce off the bonnet at least once! That's just the kids. They'd also throw a toy helicopter or something up in the air and watch it crash down onto the bricks. Over and over again. Mesmerising entertainment. And that'd go on ALL DAY. Well past 8pm, which was MY bedtime when I was a kid. Or at least Mom would come and tell my sis and me to quieten down, "it's late and time to settle down now". Nope, these people had no concept of "other people".
That was clearly visible when they were packing. It seemed, WONDERFULLY, that they were moving out. They had a little bakkie parked in one of the bays and were loading stuff on it when someone in one of the other flats arrived with stuff to be delivered. A wash machine and a couch. The man of this lovely neighbour-animals group STORMED across and started shouting at the driver of the little truck to "use your fucking brains a little! how the fuck am I supposed to get out here? What the fuck are you thinking? Fucksakes man! How the fuck are we to get out? What the fuck!!". Totally unreasonable. For one thing, he was still busy PACKING, so no URGENT need to get past, for another thing, the truck wouldn't have been there longer than about 5-10 mins, and another... HE COULD HAVE MOVED SO ASSHOLE COULDA GOT PAST!!! Hardly as if he was stuck... but assholes like that just overreact completely.
A bit later, when we were sitting outside enjoying the evening air and warmth, he walked past us after going out to buy something and muttered to us "enjoy your stay here, you're going to have fun staying here!". Almost seemed like a threat. BUT...
THEY'VE MOVED OUT!!!!
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's peaceful now, no screaming shrieking banging shit! YAYYYYYYYY! It's awesome now. I think if they hadn't moved out I would have gone nuts very soon. It's hard to live with inconsiderate bastards like that. Imagine: this man stands outside and shouts into the house to his wife... charming. Swears at his kids. Lovely. But anyway, not our concern anymore - YAYYYYYYY!!!
Yesterday, G's parents came to my place to fetch the fishtank and bring it carefully to the flat. It was a MISSION to catch all the fish, one of the black neons somehow went UNDER the undergravel filter plate and hid in the muck with 2 of the kuhli loaches. Little sods! I had to dig up all the gravel that was on top of the filterplate and lift it up, dislodging all fish poo and muck in the process, and try to catch them despite not being able to see much in the murk. Lucky I got them quite easily. Easier, in fact, than catching all the others ABOVE the gravel! For being such a little bugger, that black neon got to enjoy the ride to town in the kuhli loach bag *see previous post about kuhli loaches* All the other fish were separated according to species, except for him! I also had to separate the male and female congos cos they're just too big and skittish to fit into one bag.
Drove to town, offloaded the tank & equipment & brats, and G's parents had a look around the flat while they were here. They also love the place. We're having a flat warming tomorrow evening so they'll see the tank now that it's set up. Everyone will see the place! So exciting.
Ooh I haven't blogged about NY's yet! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok after saving that post yesterday and coming back to it today (6th Jan 2007), we’re waiting for 19:00. The flat-warming is tonight! So exciting! It’s gonna be great to see everyone together.
The fish are completely at home, no problems whatsoever. I’m dying to get a bird, maybe a canary or something like that, but it’d be quite lonely during the day. And birds’ sounds carry. Although (pleasantly) surprising in this place, neighbours’ sounds don’t carry so much. There are a few people who have little dogs here but you NEVER hear them, except when they’re going through the stairwell area on their way (excitedly) for a walk. Good, that, not having much noise (specially after those un-neighbours!). Sometimes we hear junky music coming from the flats opposite, which are above a restaurant, but that’s for about an hour hehe, so it’s tolerable. Just means that we close the windows/door when we’re playing music here, cos their music just clashes with ours. Yes, it IS that loud to interfere, but not if the windows/door are closed!!
It’s 18:10, I’m hungry. Mustn’t get tempted to start on the cheese puffs………………….
I’m starting to get anxious about the GI&GS order… I haven’t had any email replies (emailed twice) and still haven’t had an email confirming that they’ve been shipped. The transaction has gone through… but it’s a month later and still nothing. The moment we get our internet connection (after posting this LOL), I’m going to yahoo-phone them, to try to find out what’s going on.
My hifi is very frustrating. Its CD player lens keeps going off focus/blind/cannot read the CD. So you put a CD in it, and sometimes it plays, other times it reads how many songs there are and the playing time, but doesn’t manage to find the start of track one nor any other tracks. Sometimes it cannot even read the tracklisting or running time and spins the CD superfast and then throws it down again into the tray still spinning – CHARMING!! Time to get it serviced, AGAIN! It’s been a problem with this hifi since I got it, basically. I dunno, maybe a temperamental hifi, generally LOL.
Ok I think I’ll save this now, see if there’s anything that still needs preparation for nownow. Don’t think there’s anything. Would be nice if Fe and Te were coming, but sadly they’re all a plane-trip away now!! Miss you guys, see you soon!
Ok signing off for now, will add more to this later... Oh wait! I didn’t blog about NY’s! It was at W&S’s place, a bring ‘n braai. Basically the whole Anti-Social Society was there, as well as (obviously) W&S, and also X and L. Had a lekker time, chilling and chatting and joking and talking shit and having a ball, and having nice nice drinks. Mmmm nachtmusik and cinzano and something else. OMG did that have a sting in the tail! All the “power” sank to the bottom so you had a super-whammy when you got to the end of the drink! I felt RATHER wonky!! Got to witness the eye-toy, wasn’t up to playing with it though cos I think I might have wobbled a bit too much! Saw in the new year watching the countdowns on TV and well, each channel we tuned into had theirs when we tuned to them, so they were almost staggered hehe! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!..... ummm… HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE!!..... oh ey, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!! ….. YAY HAPPY NEW YEAR…. Ermm…….
Ok signing off for real now, to be continued….
And I’m back. It’s now Monday 8th January 2007. The party was WONDERFUL! Thanks everyone for coming and making it such a special evening!! Caught up with everyone, at first we were all in the lounge and then the guys all basically ended up outside and the girls indoors still, then more people went outside, then I kinda rounded everyone up and everyone was outside. It was actually quite warm in the lounge and it was refreshingly cool outside. As the night settled in, it got colder and it was nice and warm indoors again, but by then people were starting to leave... time is abstract hehe, it was already later than it seemed!
Friday was B & N’s flatwarming/farewell/birthday party/get-together. Went to their place for snacks and chatting. N is leaving for UAE to work there. 2 months there, 1 month back... or something to that effect. I’m sure that’s going to be very trying at times, but they’re staying positive about it. Luckily “in this day and age” there are so many ways to communicate hehe!
Yesterday (Sunday), we went to my place and took Sis out for lunch with us to a lovely little restaurant/art gallery, Tibetan Teahouse. I had Thukpa Soup, VERY yum! Then G and I went to his parents’ place, to fetch *the curtains*! Friday we’d bought one curtain, to divide in half and put in the lounge cos those two windows are a bit small to warrant a curtain each. So on Saturday, G’s mom took the curtain and divided it and made it into two curtains for us! It was already ready very early on Sunday, hehe! Sounds like she’d worked overnight or something but apparently this curtain had a very simple construction which made it quick to do. We had supper at their place, and as soon as we got home we put the curtains up. They look STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today was a rather mellow day for me. G went to work and I stayed at home, being still on leave. I washed up, vacuumed, washed my hair, read about [theories about the universe] and dozed a bit in the little sunny spot in the bedroom. Ended up going to nap properly in bed, it was so nice!
My list of things to do is something like this:
Study for my learners, and do the test, and go about doing driving lessons to get my drivers license
Stitch
Read
Ok it doesn’t sound like very much to do, like un-goallike, but that’s all that I feel like setting for myself at this point because on Monday, my new job starts, and I want to see how that affects my life first. Hopefully not too much. I think it will cut out my blogging/surfing/MSNing though, because at the ‘meeting’ the bosses and I had, they mentioned they were getting an IT co to assess our computers and needs, and they’re going to restrict which computers have access to the internet, most of them only being able to email. Basically I think they’re going to replace all the computer stuff. Which is a bloody godsend! First up I hope (although it will no longer be my problem) the (to quote many previous posts) FUCKING FAX PROGRAM!!!!!! OMG that HAS TO GO!! But I think I’ll be getting a decent PC, if not a new one. And hopefully I’ll get internet, being a secretary to HBBM and maybe needing to do online bookings/etc for him. Etc. I’ll see what happens. Anyway, yeah, I might not be able to MSN anymore during working hours, which is crappy but I reckon I’ll be busy enough with work hehe!
I’m getting amped for our internet connection to be installed here now, to post this stuff, and to catch up on my usual surfing! Dying to know what’s been happening on the pond, and I want to check my emails properly too... and also (of course) chat!!!
Ok I’ll save this for now... nothing much to post, I’ll start blabla’ing about nonsense in a min if I don’t stop!
Cheers for now, peeps!

Thinking now, about what else to blog about. The neighbours... or now (thankfully) EX-neighbours. Lovely people. The days that we'd been delivering things and packing stuff in the flat, we had heard kids shrieking and going on like mad. All day long. Not a WHISPER of a "shhh" from either of their parents. They would bounce a massive (about the size of a basketball) inflatable tennis ball ALL AROUND THE ENTIRE BLOCK OF FLATS! Around and around and around! For hours on end. If they weren't doing that, they were running around the entire building, running past/under our bedroom window which is on the same side of the building as their porch/balcony-thing. Oh yes, and G's car is parked just across from our bedroom window, and it's on a raised level so it's about 1.5m higher than the ground by the building. The kids would bounce their ball against the little wall/edge of the raised bit G's car is parked on, and it'd inevitably bounce up, and it bashed his car's grille and I heard it bounce off the bonnet at least once! That's just the kids. They'd also throw a toy helicopter or something up in the air and watch it crash down onto the bricks. Over and over again. Mesmerising entertainment. And that'd go on ALL DAY. Well past 8pm, which was MY bedtime when I was a kid. Or at least Mom would come and tell my sis and me to quieten down, "it's late and time to settle down now". Nope, these people had no concept of "other people".
That was clearly visible when they were packing. It seemed, WONDERFULLY, that they were moving out. They had a little bakkie parked in one of the bays and were loading stuff on it when someone in one of the other flats arrived with stuff to be delivered. A wash machine and a couch. The man of this lovely neighbour-animals group STORMED across and started shouting at the driver of the little truck to "use your fucking brains a little! how the fuck am I supposed to get out here? What the fuck are you thinking? Fucksakes man! How the fuck are we to get out? What the fuck!!". Totally unreasonable. For one thing, he was still busy PACKING, so no URGENT need to get past, for another thing, the truck wouldn't have been there longer than about 5-10 mins, and another... HE COULD HAVE MOVED SO ASSHOLE COULDA GOT PAST!!! Hardly as if he was stuck... but assholes like that just overreact completely.
A bit later, when we were sitting outside enjoying the evening air and warmth, he walked past us after going out to buy something and muttered to us "enjoy your stay here, you're going to have fun staying here!". Almost seemed like a threat. BUT...
THEY'VE MOVED OUT!!!!
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's peaceful now, no screaming shrieking banging shit! YAYYYYYYYY! It's awesome now. I think if they hadn't moved out I would have gone nuts very soon. It's hard to live with inconsiderate bastards like that. Imagine: this man stands outside and shouts into the house to his wife... charming. Swears at his kids. Lovely. But anyway, not our concern anymore - YAYYYYYYY!!!
Yesterday, G's parents came to my place to fetch the fishtank and bring it carefully to the flat. It was a MISSION to catch all the fish, one of the black neons somehow went UNDER the undergravel filter plate and hid in the muck with 2 of the kuhli loaches. Little sods! I had to dig up all the gravel that was on top of the filterplate and lift it up, dislodging all fish poo and muck in the process, and try to catch them despite not being able to see much in the murk. Lucky I got them quite easily. Easier, in fact, than catching all the others ABOVE the gravel! For being such a little bugger, that black neon got to enjoy the ride to town in the kuhli loach bag *see previous post about kuhli loaches* All the other fish were separated according to species, except for him! I also had to separate the male and female congos cos they're just too big and skittish to fit into one bag.
Drove to town, offloaded the tank & equipment & brats, and G's parents had a look around the flat while they were here. They also love the place. We're having a flat warming tomorrow evening so they'll see the tank now that it's set up. Everyone will see the place! So exciting.
Ooh I haven't blogged about NY's yet! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok after saving that post yesterday and coming back to it today (6th Jan 2007), we’re waiting for 19:00. The flat-warming is tonight! So exciting! It’s gonna be great to see everyone together.
The fish are completely at home, no problems whatsoever. I’m dying to get a bird, maybe a canary or something like that, but it’d be quite lonely during the day. And birds’ sounds carry. Although (pleasantly) surprising in this place, neighbours’ sounds don’t carry so much. There are a few people who have little dogs here but you NEVER hear them, except when they’re going through the stairwell area on their way (excitedly) for a walk. Good, that, not having much noise (specially after those un-neighbours!). Sometimes we hear junky music coming from the flats opposite, which are above a restaurant, but that’s for about an hour hehe, so it’s tolerable. Just means that we close the windows/door when we’re playing music here, cos their music just clashes with ours. Yes, it IS that loud to interfere, but not if the windows/door are closed!!
It’s 18:10, I’m hungry. Mustn’t get tempted to start on the cheese puffs………………….
I’m starting to get anxious about the GI&GS order… I haven’t had any email replies (emailed twice) and still haven’t had an email confirming that they’ve been shipped. The transaction has gone through… but it’s a month later and still nothing. The moment we get our internet connection (after posting this LOL), I’m going to yahoo-phone them, to try to find out what’s going on.
My hifi is very frustrating. Its CD player lens keeps going off focus/blind/cannot read the CD. So you put a CD in it, and sometimes it plays, other times it reads how many songs there are and the playing time, but doesn’t manage to find the start of track one nor any other tracks. Sometimes it cannot even read the tracklisting or running time and spins the CD superfast and then throws it down again into the tray still spinning – CHARMING!! Time to get it serviced, AGAIN! It’s been a problem with this hifi since I got it, basically. I dunno, maybe a temperamental hifi, generally LOL.
Ok I think I’ll save this now, see if there’s anything that still needs preparation for nownow. Don’t think there’s anything. Would be nice if Fe and Te were coming, but sadly they’re all a plane-trip away now!! Miss you guys, see you soon!
Ok signing off for now, will add more to this later... Oh wait! I didn’t blog about NY’s! It was at W&S’s place, a bring ‘n braai. Basically the whole Anti-Social Society was there, as well as (obviously) W&S, and also X and L. Had a lekker time, chilling and chatting and joking and talking shit and having a ball, and having nice nice drinks. Mmmm nachtmusik and cinzano and something else. OMG did that have a sting in the tail! All the “power” sank to the bottom so you had a super-whammy when you got to the end of the drink! I felt RATHER wonky!! Got to witness the eye-toy, wasn’t up to playing with it though cos I think I might have wobbled a bit too much! Saw in the new year watching the countdowns on TV and well, each channel we tuned into had theirs when we tuned to them, so they were almost staggered hehe! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!..... ummm… HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE!!..... oh ey, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!! ….. YAY HAPPY NEW YEAR…. Ermm…….
Ok signing off for real now, to be continued….
And I’m back. It’s now Monday 8th January 2007. The party was WONDERFUL! Thanks everyone for coming and making it such a special evening!! Caught up with everyone, at first we were all in the lounge and then the guys all basically ended up outside and the girls indoors still, then more people went outside, then I kinda rounded everyone up and everyone was outside. It was actually quite warm in the lounge and it was refreshingly cool outside. As the night settled in, it got colder and it was nice and warm indoors again, but by then people were starting to leave... time is abstract hehe, it was already later than it seemed!
Friday was B & N’s flatwarming/farewell/birthday party/get-together. Went to their place for snacks and chatting. N is leaving for UAE to work there. 2 months there, 1 month back... or something to that effect. I’m sure that’s going to be very trying at times, but they’re staying positive about it. Luckily “in this day and age” there are so many ways to communicate hehe!
Yesterday (Sunday), we went to my place and took Sis out for lunch with us to a lovely little restaurant/art gallery, Tibetan Teahouse. I had Thukpa Soup, VERY yum! Then G and I went to his parents’ place, to fetch *the curtains*! Friday we’d bought one curtain, to divide in half and put in the lounge cos those two windows are a bit small to warrant a curtain each. So on Saturday, G’s mom took the curtain and divided it and made it into two curtains for us! It was already ready very early on Sunday, hehe! Sounds like she’d worked overnight or something but apparently this curtain had a very simple construction which made it quick to do. We had supper at their place, and as soon as we got home we put the curtains up. They look STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today was a rather mellow day for me. G went to work and I stayed at home, being still on leave. I washed up, vacuumed, washed my hair, read about [theories about the universe] and dozed a bit in the little sunny spot in the bedroom. Ended up going to nap properly in bed, it was so nice!
My list of things to do is something like this:
Study for my learners, and do the test, and go about doing driving lessons to get my drivers license
Stitch
Read
Ok it doesn’t sound like very much to do, like un-goallike, but that’s all that I feel like setting for myself at this point because on Monday, my new job starts, and I want to see how that affects my life first. Hopefully not too much. I think it will cut out my blogging/surfing/MSNing though, because at the ‘meeting’ the bosses and I had, they mentioned they were getting an IT co to assess our computers and needs, and they’re going to restrict which computers have access to the internet, most of them only being able to email. Basically I think they’re going to replace all the computer stuff. Which is a bloody godsend! First up I hope (although it will no longer be my problem) the (to quote many previous posts) FUCKING FAX PROGRAM!!!!!! OMG that HAS TO GO!! But I think I’ll be getting a decent PC, if not a new one. And hopefully I’ll get internet, being a secretary to HBBM and maybe needing to do online bookings/etc for him. Etc. I’ll see what happens. Anyway, yeah, I might not be able to MSN anymore during working hours, which is crappy but I reckon I’ll be busy enough with work hehe!
I’m getting amped for our internet connection to be installed here now, to post this stuff, and to catch up on my usual surfing! Dying to know what’s been happening on the pond, and I want to check my emails properly too... and also (of course) chat!!!
Ok I’ll save this for now... nothing much to post, I’ll start blabla’ing about nonsense in a min if I don’t stop!
Cheers for now, peeps!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEK
Ok today I'm excited.
We checked out the place yesterday evening, and it's a very cute old-style building. It's pink. It's got quaint small-paned windows. Creaky wooden floors. It's very big, quite cute, really, in a big, old way. The parking bay is across from the front windows.
I've made a list of things that they need to fix up, like there's a broken tile on the side of the bath, the basin is cracked and yucky, there's a UK-style wall plug (what's WITH that?), the light switches are a bit fidgety, the cupboard in the 2nd bedroom doesn't close properly, but most of all, the windows are a bit dodgy. They (to me) look like they'd rain in, and would not be the most stable/strong windows. Also, their burglar bars are basically THICK chicken-wire, which is just NOT FUNNY. So I'd want them to fix those things up then I'd wanna stay there for ages. Also, strangely, there is no phone fitting. Is that because they CAN'T put a phone in? If so, then we can't get internet = shit.
Best of all, the place is VACANT, so maybe we can move our stuff asap! That would be nice. His place has been taken, so if we can move our stuff before the end of the year, that's perfect. We're gonna go to the agents at lunch time.
Stuff we'd need to get for the place: curtains! A double bed. A proper-size fridge. A stove/oven. Couches. PLANTS!! I guess I'm all excited and want to make it a home asap!
I'm also amped because I'm making serious headway with Warpy. He's looking STUNNING!!!! Apparently the office is closing early today so I'm going to have hours more to stitch!!!!! (with treats and music, of course!)
Yes, the office closing is another exciting thing. It's one of the bosses' birthday today, so we're having pizza for lunch. At 12:30. And apparently we're going home after that!
I'm bored now. My ipod is charging - bummer. Lunch is in half an hour then we are going home!!!!
YIPPEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
Will post a pic of Warpy as soon as I can. YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

Frantic Festive Season
Been stitching a lot on Warpy, it's coming along fantastically, I'm still hoping to finish the half before the end of the year. It might not happen but I'm still gonna try.
G's place has been taken, so this evening we're going to look at a flat in another part of town. At least for a 3 months contract to look for a better place, but hopefully it'll be LOVELY and the real thing! Can't wait to go look.
Sis got a car! So exciting! A 1600 automatic Citigolf. Not sure what year it is but it's not brand new. It looks good though. Have yet to see/experience it in action, hopefully will get to soon! Dammit I MUST get my learners soon and then drivers, I want my *own* car!
I hope GI & GS arrive soon, I'm really getting overexcited impatient about them! I CAN'T WAIT!
I also can't wait for tomorrow to come, actually for it to be this time tomorrow, cos then it's just an hour and 35mins til HOLIDAYS. But still a day to go. I'm amped about Xmas eve at my place, Xmas lunch at G's parents, 2nd Xmas lunch at my place and then NY's party near W's place! YEAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! It's PARTY TIME!!
Strange how updown things are LOL! Could be due to sugar ;) I've been sipping a Just Juice so maybe that's why.
Got a physio appointment on Sat, 3rd one, my muscles are fine now but it's just to fully relax them. I seem to have a rather tense "rigid" back, I guess my muscles are stringy and tight. At least that pain has gone!
Nothing else much to write about here, am busy trying to read Thud by Terry Pratchett.
Oh god, that's something to blog about: the temp like stinky-ass food! She goes out and buys stuff that stinks like all fucking hell! And this was 11 in the morning! Fish and chips! Holy fuck but did I feel nauseaus!
Anyway, it's 15:30 now, I'm so impatient for today to END!!!!!!!!

Happy times, sad times
It's nearing the holidays, there are only 5 days (including today) til then. Then I'm on leave for 3 weeks. I need the break.
Christmas is coming! Going to have Xmas eve at my place, Xmas lunch at G's parents' place and then a 2nd Xmas lunch on 26th at my place. Cos Mom and sis are going to be at aunt+uncle and I'm going to be at G's parents, and it'd seem lousy having a no one home Xmas, so we're just having it a day later.
That's in a week's time. Xmas!
Then New Years', but I don't know what plans have been/are being made.
Mom has finally come to the realisation that Honey (our 16 year old Flabrador) is old and unhappy. But only because Honey's basically incontinent now. Sometime this week she's going to be put to sleep. I don't know how I feel about this. Despite having been upset how old and unhappy she's been, it's still sad. But I almost feel detached and unemotional. Not sure. Not nice. I won't be there, at the time. Is that a good thing? A bad thing? I don't know. I don't do these things well. Not with the pet hen, not with the budgies, not with dad, I just don't.
GI and GS should arrive soon. I haven't got a reply to my email yet.
We might have found a nice place, but it's not certain yet.
I dunno.

Bla
this is a very very bla day.
We didn't get that place. Some cow got their MOMMY-dearest to do a deposit in the morning, thereby basically *ensuring* she got it. Which is shit because she would have seen it AFTER us and the agent KNEW that we were interested. Shit-heads.
Felt decidedly bla anyway, despite this. So G and I went out for lunch. I went a bit late because I'd been in a meeting with bosses. They were talking to me about my new job etc and stuff. Found out about my pay increase which isn't that much but anything will do.
Got to the coffee shop only at about 13:10, and G was there already. Ordered a cappuccino and a salmon and cream cheese toasted sarmie, G ordered a coffee and an egg-burger. We waited for about half an hour, and THEN only got our coffees. Our food was delayed so we had to take it away. Thankfully the lady was very nice about it and we didn't have to pay for the food. But still. So I got to have my sarmie an hour later and a microwave-turn later so it wasn't as nice as it would have been.
That seems to be the gist of today, really. Everything so bla. Can't find any nice places online, anywhere.
Looking forward to Friday, I hope I survive that long!!
Can't wait to just go home and chill. Want to stitch. Concentrate on something like that. Therapy. Accomplishment - making it look more and more like a picture, even if it is slow.
I'm very annoyed that I haven't received any email from the Xstitch kit people. Yes, they SAY on their site that their replies to emails aren't really snappy, but still. If they've already "made payment" which they do only when it's being shipped, surely I should have had an email? Dunno. I'm so fed up.
Can this year be OVER already?!?!?!?!

It feels like Friday
Today (and basically every day this week so far) has felt like a Friday. I think because it's quiet and I'm bored, and cos it's sunny outside and it feels like something big is happening soon - which it is. Office lunch, holidays. Moving place! That is going to be so exciting! Might have found a RATHER nice place quite nearby to G's current place. It's quite posh, it's got a lift, security gate/electronic gate and everything! Very nice. Probably going to go see it tomorrow, if all goes well.
G's starting the packing process. He's gotta be out by the end of the year. He doesn't have that much stuff but it'll still need packing. It's fascinating to see his stuff, particularly old photos! So cute!!!!
I'm so bored now, nothing to do. I'm sitting listening to my ipod and sending faxes right now, as well as blogging and blobbing on the Pond. NEARLY completely done with my Xmas shopping....................................
I'm so eagerly awaiting the arrival of GS and GI... the payment's been made, but I haven't had an email saying that it's being shipped. I have emailed to ask about it and am waiting for a reply... EEEEEEEEEK so exciting!!!!
Sis passed all her subject for this year/semester/study unit! YAY 'BONE!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!
What else do I have to blog about? Well, it's now been 4 months since G and I went on our first date!!!!!!! HAPPY 4 MONTHS, G-MAN!!!
AH SHIT MAN! My ipod battery just died! And there's still 50mins to go til hometime!!!!!!
Anyway! Now there are 38mins to go.
I'm bored again.
ZzzzzZZZzz. There are so many things I WANT to be doing but can't cos I'm stuck at work. It's so annoying!

Today is Thursday
It's one of those lovely drizzly days, not cold and not windy.
I love this kind of weather. Ideally I want to be in bed with hot chocolate... dozing and taking it easy.
I'm so bored. I was about to type "intensely bored" but how can boredom be intense, if it were intense it wouldn't be boredom it'd be an experience.
My eyelids feel nice and heavy now, it is after all approx 12:30. And today is a no-lunch day so BLEHHHHHH. I have to stay awake through that too!
My fish are all fine now. The 3 lone neons in the little tank are skittish but that's to be expected since they're used to lots of other fish being around them. If they look healthy enough I'm going to put them in the main tank. Only worry is whether they're just a tiny bit under-healthy and if they'd pass that on to the others. I REALLY need to do a waterchange this weekend, cos now the tank is full it has to be cleaned more regularly (once a week).

I love this kind of weather. Ideally I want to be in bed with hot chocolate... dozing and taking it easy.
I'm so bored. I was about to type "intensely bored" but how can boredom be intense, if it were intense it wouldn't be boredom it'd be an experience.
My eyelids feel nice and heavy now, it is after all approx 12:30. And today is a no-lunch day so BLEHHHHHH. I have to stay awake through that too!
My fish are all fine now. The 3 lone neons in the little tank are skittish but that's to be expected since they're used to lots of other fish being around them. If they look healthy enough I'm going to put them in the main tank. Only worry is whether they're just a tiny bit under-healthy and if they'd pass that on to the others. I REALLY need to do a waterchange this weekend, cos now the tank is full it has to be cleaned more regularly (once a week).

Weekend wexperiences
Went shopping on Saturday morning, finished all my Xmas shopping except for 3 people. The centre was quite busy. Popped in at G's parents' place for a bit and got talked at by their parrot. Even got to scratch his neck!
Had a rather mellow Syndicate, just chilled and chatted and had pizza.
Sunday mom, sis and I were supposed to go for a drive in memory-acknowledgement of dad's birthday, but the weather was unpleasant so we couldn't. It was extremely windy and hiking/going to a look out place on a mountain wouldn't have been fun.
Dumped the black neons into the main tank, so all that're left in the little tank are the 3 neons (the 4th one died) and the kuhli loach. This time I had the energy to catch the black neons but I don't catch the kuhli loach unless there's a maximum of 10cm of water hehe. Otherwise it's impossible. The black neons settled in nicely.
Was horrified to find a packet of freeze-dried tubifex worms (fish food) had been infested by weevils. Dumped it all into the tank and the fish ate a lot of the worms! I just hope they ate the weevils too.
Supper last night was RATHER STRANGE. Mom brought crayfish and 'hotnotsvis' home with her from her holiday, and it was rather gross to see the whole fish and whole crayfish defrosting in the sink. The fish had its fins, eyes, everything. It was RATHER gross. And crayfish are just creepy anyway. Mom cooked the fish whole, so it was rather gross seeing the fish with EVERYTHING, cooked. Cooked eyes? *pukes* Mom shelled the crayfish after cooking them, but yuck, it was so ugh. And then I got to taste the crayfish a bit later, I took only a small forkful cos it REALLY DIDN'T APPEAL. Took a sniff and then took a taste: it tastes like the smell of a stinky dirty fishtank *puke puke puke puke puke!* GROSS MAN it's so gross!!!!
I so badly wish I could just go cuddle up in bed. I feel so tired and sleepy, I just want to doze and sleep and curl up and snuggle. The office closes in 14 working days' time (including the 2nd half of today and the first half of the day of our office lunch when we have to come work).
Ahhh to sleep, sleep sleep and away!
*yawns*
I think I have other news but I forgot. If I remember I will post it.
OOOH wait yes, I remember!
G put an order through for Golden Ice and Gentle Strength! I'm gonna transfer the $ back to him once they've taken it off his credit card. It's so exciting! Lemme try find a pic to paste! Ok no, I'll post pics from home.
YAY I CAN'T WAIT!!!! Can't wait yay yay yay! Still got a lot to finish on Warpy, but I'm sure it won't take THAT long. Done most of his head, still got a bit on his face to do, and then his whole neck! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Memories
Smelled something or was reminded of a smell from years ago:
It reminds me of (a) cold, miserable, rainy day at school... frozenly walking in the corridors, past the office area with staff room. The smells of coffee or tea, and biscuits. The hint of warmth, comfort on soft couches, the warmth of proper clothes. Not for us, such comfort. That's the only word I can think of, to describe it: "comfort".
Freezing in my uniform, in skirt and shirt, with stockings which don't keep the cold out. Nothing keeps the cold from going up your skirt. Wearing a jersey and blazer, which do nothing to keep your body warm. No chairs even, at breaktime. And cold water to drink, no warm drink. No food to be heated, just pre-packed sandwiches. Nothing to warm you up from the inside. Chilled to the bone. Blotchy, pale, blue skin. Frozen.

A bad day
We've seen all the messages that say that "This happened to a friend of a relative, so I know it's true." Well, this one combines all of them into one. Delving into virtually every hoax currently circulating, the anonymous author of this gem paints the picture of a very bad day!
Subject: I know this guy...
--------------------------------
Dear Friends,
I know this guy whose neighbor, a young man, was home recovering from having been served a rat in his bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken. So anyway, one day he went to sleep and when he awoke he was in his bathtub and it was full of ice and he was sore all over. When he got out of the tub he realized that HIS KIDNEYS HAD BEEN STOLEN and he saw a note on his Mirror that said "Call 911!" But he was afraid to use his phone because it was connected to his computer, and there was a virus on his computer that would destroy his hard drive if he opened an e-mail entitled "Join the crew!"
Now, this guy knew it wasn't a hoax because he himself was a computer programmer who was working on software to save us from Armageddon when the year 2000 rolls around. (By the way, it's a little known fact that the Y1K problem caused the Dark Ages!) His program will prevent a global disaster in which all the computers get together and distribute the $250.00 Neiman-Marcus cookie recipe under the leadership of Bill Gates. (It's true! I read it all last week in a mass e-mail from BILL GATES HIMSELF, who is also sending me a free Disney World vacation and $5,000 if I forward the e-mail to everyone I know!!! :)
Anyway, the poor man then tried to call 911 from a pay phone to report his missing kidneys, but reaching into the coin-return slot he got jabbed with an HIV-infected needle around which was wrapped a note that said, "Welcome to the world of AIDS."
Luckily he was only a few blocks from the hospital-the one where that little boy who is dying of cancer is, the one whose last wish is for everyone in the world to send him an e-mail and the American Cancer Society has agreed to pay him a nickel for every e-mail he receives.
I sent him two e-mails and one of them was a bunch of X's and O's in the shape of an angel (if you get it and forward it to 10 people, you will have good luck. But, send it to less than 10 people, and you will have BAD LUCK FOR SEVEN YEARS).
So anyway, the poor guy tried to drive himself to the hospital, but on the way he noticed another car driving along without its lights on. To be helpful, he flashed his lights at him and was promptly shot as part of a gang initiation.
So, forward this to all the friends who send you their junk mail and you will receive 4 green M&Ms. If you don't, the owner of Procter and Gamble will report you to his Satanist friends and you will have more bad luck, your wife will develop breast cancer from using the antiperspirant which clogged the pores under her arms, and the US government will put a tax on your emails forever!

I sent him two e-mails and one of them was a bunch of X's and O's in the shape of an angel (if you get it and forward it to 10 people, you will have good luck. But, send it to less than 10 people, and you will have BAD LUCK FOR SEVEN YEARS).
So anyway, the poor guy tried to drive himself to the hospital, but on the way he noticed another car driving along without its lights on. To be helpful, he flashed his lights at him and was promptly shot as part of a gang initiation.
So, forward this to all the friends who send you their junk mail and you will receive 4 green M&Ms. If you don't, the owner of Procter and Gamble will report you to his Satanist friends and you will have more bad luck, your wife will develop breast cancer from using the antiperspirant which clogged the pores under her arms, and the US government will put a tax on your emails forever!
The Ultimate Chain Letter - love this and HAD to post it again!
Hello, my name is Basmati Kasaar. I am suffering from rare and deadly diseases, poor scores on final exams, extreme virginity, fear of being kidnapped and executed by anal electrocution, and guilt for not forwarding out 50 billion f--king chain letters sent to me by people who actually believe that if you send them on, then that poor 6 year old girl in Arkansas with a breast on her forehead will be able to raise enough money to have it removed before her redneck parents sell her off to the traveling freak show.
Do you honestly believe that Bill Gates is going to give you and everyone you send 'his' email to $1000? How stupid are you? Ooooh, lookyhere! If I scroll down this page and make a wish, I'll get laid by every Playboy model in the magazine! What a bunch of bullshit.
So basically, this message is a big F--K YOU to all the people out there who have nothing better to do than to send me stupid chain mail forwards. Maybe the evil chain letter leprechauns will come into my apartment and sodomize me in my sleep for not continuing the chain, which was started by Jesus in 5 A.D. and was brought to this country by midget pilgrims on the Mayflower, and if it makes it to the year 2000, it'll be in the Guinness Book of World Records for longest continuous streak of blatant stupidity.
F--k them. If you're going to forward something, at least send me something mildly amusing. I've seen all the 'send this to 50 of your closest friends, and this poor, wretched excuse for a human being will somehow receive a nickel from some omniscient being' forwards about 90 times. I don't f--king care. Show a little intelligence and think about what you're actually contributing to by sending out forwards. Chances are it's your own unpopularity.
THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF CHAIN LETTERS:

**Chain Letter Type 1**
(scroll down)
Make a wish!!!
No, really, go on and make one!!!
Oh please, they'll never go out with you!!!
Wish something else!!!
Not that, you pervert!!
Is your finger getting tired yet?
STOP!!!! Wasn't that fun? :)
Hope you made a great wish :) Now, to make you feel guilty, here's what I'll do. First of all, if you don't send this to 5096 people in the next 5 seconds, you will be raped by a mad goat and thrown off a high building into a pile of manure. It's true! Because, THIS letter isn't like all of those fake ones, THIS one is TRUE!! Really!!! Here's how it goes:
Send this to 1 person: One person will be pissed off at you for sending them a stupid chain letter.
Send this to 2-5 people: 2-5 people will be pissed off at you for sending them a stupid chain letter.
Send this to 5-10 people: 5-10 people will be pissed off at you for sending them a stupid chain letter, and may form a plot on your life.
Send this to 10-20 people: 10-20 people will be pissed off at you for sending them a stupid chain letter and will napalm your house.
Thanks!!!! Good Luck!!!
**Chain Letter Type 2**
Hello, and thank you for reading this letter. You see, there is a starving little boy in Baklaliviatatlaglooshen who has no arms, no legs, no parents, and no goats. This little boy's life could be saved, because for every time you pass this on, a dollar will be donated to the Little Starving Legless Armless Goatless Boy from Baklaliviatatlaglooshen Fund. Oh, and remember, we have absolutely no way of counting the emails sent and this is all a complete load of bullshit. So go on, reach out. Send this to 5 people in the next 47 seconds. Oh, and a reminder - if you accidentally send this to 4 or 6 people, you will die instantly. Thanks again!!
**Chain Letter Type 3**
Hi there!! This chain letter has been in existence since 1897. This is absolutely incredible because there was no e-mail then and probably not as many sad pricks with nothing better to do. So this is how it works: Pass this on to 15,067 people in the next 7 minutes or something horrible will happen to you like:
Bizarre Horror Story #1: Miranda Pinsley was walking home from school on Saturday. She had recently received this letter and ignored it. She then tripped in a crack in the sidewalk, fell into the sewer, was gushed down a drainpipe in a flood of poopie, and went flying out over a waterfall. Not only did she smell nasty, she died. This Could Happen To You!!!
Bizarre Horror Story #2: Dexter Bip, a 13 year old boy, got a chain letter in his mail and ignored it. Later that day, he was hit by a car and so was his boyfriend (hey, some people swing that way). They both died and went to hell and were cursed to eat adorable kittens every day for eternity. This Could Happen To You Too!!!
Remember, you could end up just like Pinsley and Bip. Just send this letter to all of your loser friends, and everything will be okay.
**Chain Letter Type 4**
As if you care, here is a poem that I wrote. Send it to every one of your friends.
--Friends--
A friend is someone who is always at your side,
A friend is someone who likes you even though you stink of shit, and your breath smells like you've been eating catfood,
A friend is someone who likes you even though you're as ugly as a hat full of a--holes,
A friend is someone who cleans up for you after you've soiled yourself,
A friend is someone who stays with you all night while you cry about your sad, sad life,
A friend is someone who pretends they like you when they really think you should be raped by mad goats, then thrown to vicious dogs,
A friend is someone who scrubs your toilet, vacuums and then gets the check and leaves and doesn't speak much English... * no, sorry that's the cleaning lady,
A friend is not someone who sends you chain letters because he wants his wish of being rich to come true. Now pass this on! If you don't, you'll never have sex ever again.
**************************************
The point being? If you get some chain letter that's threatening to leave you shagless or luckless for the rest of your life, delete it. If it's funny, send it on. Don't piss people off by making them feel guilty about a leper in Botswana with no teeth, who's been tied to a dead elephant for 27 years, whose only saviour is the 5 cents per letter he'll receive if you forward this mail, otherwise you'll end up like Pamela. Right?
Now forward this to everyone you know, otherwise you'll find all your underwear missing tomorrow morning.
Do you honestly believe that Bill Gates is going to give you and everyone you send 'his' email to $1000? How stupid are you? Ooooh, lookyhere! If I scroll down this page and make a wish, I'll get laid by every Playboy model in the magazine! What a bunch of bullshit.
