Such a lot going on
This weekend was great! Friday evening we had my sis+herG and M+J over. We had butterchicken (a mild curry dish), just chatted and had a nice time. That afternoon we'd unpacked a lot of stuff just to get the lounge+kitchen area tidy. It was so cool - at one stage, during Synd, I sat back in the lounge and the place looked so lovely. So like our home! :D
Saturday morning we slept late. Priorities!
We went shopping on Saturday afternoon, got a few hardwarestore things, ideas for colourschemes, etc, and that evening we went to Banana Jam for a farewell for X and J... they're both going overseas for 6 months and 1 year respectively. Yum supper and a good time with everyone!
Sunday we slept late again... priorities, priorities!
Went to the mall to take my ring away - the centre stone is loose under the claws (probably from being resized). It feels terrible not having it now, every now and then I go "omg, where did I leave it!?!?!?" heheheh!
After dropping it off we headed off to find a mall a bit further out of town. We drove straight past it not realising the entrance wasn't on the side we thought it was. But we got there in the end. They were having a wedding expo but unfortunately all the shops in the mall close at 3pm so the expo people were already packing up. There weren't many ideas there that we haven't already thought of. We already have our ideas for the decor and stuff, we just have to draw the things or design templates/mock-ups. It's SO damn exciting! We have the colours chosen, I have a paint-sample and a bit of raffia which have the right colours.
It is SO EXCITING! I really am so thrilled and excited about it all. It's way early to be planning the wedding things, but rather earlier than later. I have an appointment with a dressmaker next Saturday - she made my matric dance dress.
Eeek!
Last night I stitched. Warpony is nearing completion. This week I want to focus on him and try to finish him. Then I'll get stuck into Heremia. I have a feeling Heremia's gonna be a blast! But Warpony comes first! Aargh, now I wish I was at home stitching... it's so sunny in our new place. Oooh, today they're coming to install the ADSL line and transfer our phone number. Then I'll be able to take pics of our place and post them here. And I'll be able to upload pics of Warpony!
GAHHHHHHHHH I wish I was at home instead! I could be doing so much stuff... not sitting at work blabla bla bla blaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!! Maybe one day I can be a stay-at-home Kit... I can keep the house tidy and stuff, and most importantly: I can stitch! *sigh* tis just a dream :D

I guess I'm a zombie now?
This just killed me (I just don't handle suspense very well...)
THE REDHEAD
A man is dining in a fancy restaurant and there is a gorgeous redhead
sitting at the next table.
He has been checking her out since he sat down, but lacks the nerve to
talk with her.
Suddenly she sneezes, and her glass eye comes flying out of its socket
toward the man.
He reflexively reaches out, grabs it out of the air and hands it back.
"Oh my, I am so sorry," the woman says as she pops her eye back in
place. "Let me buy your dinner to make it up to you," she says.
They enjoy a wonderful dinner together and afterwards they go to the
theatre followed by drinks.
They talk, they laugh, she shares her deepest dreams and he shares his.
She listens.
After paying for everything, she asks him if he would like to come to
her place for a nightcap and stay for breakfast.
They had a wonderful, wonderful time.
The next morning, she cooks a gourmet meal with all the trimmings.
The guy is amazed. Everything had been SO incredible!
"You know," he said, "you are the perfect woman. Are you this nice to
every guy you meet? "
"No," she replies. . . ."

SCROLL DOWN!!!

Wait for it. .

The suspense is killing you, isn't it?

She says: "No…it’s because you just happened to catch my eye."
(Oh shut up, and just forward it!)

:D
The past two days have been hectic. Ok the past week has been hectic - we've been packing and moving stuff and now finally we're IN!!! We took the day off yesterday and we were up about 7am. Quick pack everything rush rush move Dude, and we didn't get a chance to spray the washmachine (we did open it in the new place and there isn't any sign of an infestation). Rush pack box move shift and then the movers came at 9:30. They were done by about 11:30 or so. They really worked hard, managing to bundle the bed upstairs (scratching themselves against a piece of wood with nails sticking out - it's sposed to have another piece of wood hammered into it with a tapestry in between).
They were done, so we went back to the dump to get the fishtank evacuated. It was quite a procedure, but we managed it in 2 trips. Basically as soon as we got there we started to set it up. It took AGES but it's done. I put them in very late at night cos it took that long. One of the female congos didn't make it though - she died during the night :(
Dude LOVES the new place. I love it too. I am just so impatient for everything to be packed away and put in the right place. And then I want to stitch! Warpony has a place to go now!
Ok, now, about Tuesday! I phoned the jewellery shop at about 16:00 to check whether the ring had arrived and YAY it had! So I said we'd come that evening. We RUSHED out of the flat at 18:20. I phoned from the car and asked the lady whether they could wait for us - they close at 18:45. I said we were 5 max 10 mins away and she said "ok I'll wait"... so we got there at 18:46. They were both shocked that we managed to get there so quickly hehe but we RAN through the mall to the shop. Got it. It fits. It is BEAUTIFUL! It is JUST RIGHT! I love it.
That was Tuesday evening. Yesterday we weren't at work... so today was the first time the ppl at work had seen it. I showed it to a colleague who then promptly went around the entire office telling everyone! Felt SO shy but the fuss is over now LOL!
I'm SO impatient to go home and unpack! We didn't actually unpack much at all yesterday because our focus was singularly on the fishtank - we can sleep on the floor but they can't so that was the thing we had to do. YAY I can't believe it! We're OUT of the dump!!!!!!!!!!!
I am going to take pics of the place once everything's unpacked. But, unfortunately, we will not have internet for 6 to 8 weeks so I will only be able to post the pics once we are back online. That is the trouble with a monopoly such as helkom. LING!!!!!!!!!!
Latazzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!

News and overexcitement
We met up with the owners of the new place on Saturday... basically went through the place, asked questions, checked stuff out... got the keys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Basically all day yesterday we moved stuff. We have a few things left in the junkroom to move out... tonight we're gonna start packing things like clothes in the cupboards (except for clothes for tomorrow and Wednesday!)... crockery and cutlery... odds and ends. We have to get packets to put the fish while we transport them. We've got a moving company, they're gonna come at 8:30 to move stuff. We're gonna get up earlier than that though, to evacuate Dude to the new place and then open the washingmachine, microwave and fridge-back to spray the cockroaches. So we will have had to take all the crockery+food+everything out and empty the kitchen before then. G's gonna sand down the kitchen table and paint it either tonight or tomorrow... we're gonna use it as a fishtank table because it's very strong and the shelves below the tabletop can hold the fishfood and equipment and Dude's stuff.
We're gonna have to move the fishtank last on Wednesday... it's gonna be a timeconsuming process. I just hope G'll get the whole day off!
I CAN'T WAIT. The new place is so lovely! I've already staked out a sunnyspot and put a table there ready to stitch! The violet is already by the kitchen window. I've already put a stool in front of the bedroom window to sit and enjoy the view.
We've found lovely barstools to put at the kitchen counter, and also we've got our eyes on a lounge-suite which is both comfy and affordable. It's gonna be SO EXCITING! Wow! I will have to take photos and stuff once we've moved in. It's so quiet. The garden is cute! The yesterday, today & tomorrow plant is in full bloom. There's a jasmine plant... wow!
The wedding arrangments HAHAHAHA it sounds so nuts to type that... it's only November next year but I'm already getting all ideas, which I think is a good idea since time will go so quickly. I've decided on a colour-scheme, have an idea for flowers, got a dress-design in my mind's eye, it's all so exciting and the whole thing is a little daunting because it's such a big thing and lots to organise but I'm sure it'll be a damn fine blast!!!!!!!!!
In other news: DOOSTYD IS OVER!!! Some poor bastard has taken the place! Can't believe it but anyway, at least we NEVER have to do doostyd EVER again!!!!!!!

EXCITEMENT
Tomorrow we are meeting up with the owners of the new place, just to do an inventory and make a list of anything that needs fixing/replacing. On Tuesday, G's gonna go to the guy's office and collect the keys. We're gonna start moving stuff that afternoon (after work - fuck doostyd!)

News updates!
Here's Warpony, circa yesterday before I stitched a bit more!
.JPG)
We saw Transformers last night... It was more fun than I expected (I loved (old) Bumblebee, I want a car like that hehe)... some parts were rather lame but it was enjoyable enough :D
In other news: the ring is away to be resized. It is the 2nd last in the whole country, they only made 12 of its design. Wow! Now after choosing it and everything and trying it on, I feel weird cos it's so valuable and I am of course getting jittery like "will it actually suit me?" and stuff... but I reckon once it's the right size and I put it on, it'll be awesome. It really is beautiful. A ring to last a lifetime!
I got hold of the owners of our new place to organise when we will get the keys to it, to start moving our stuff. We're gonna get the keys on Tuesday, start moving stuff (all the stuff that we alone can move - clothes, boxes, crockery etc etc etc, basically anything we can fit in G's car). I've taken Wednesday off and G will take half day Wednesday. We're gonna get a moving co in to move all the furniture. It's not a lot - bed, 2 desks, 2 chests of drawers, 2 wardrobes, 3 couches... ). Then, from Wednesday we will be LIVING there!!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!
I REALLY CAN'T WAIT!
Saturday we're having Synd as per normal - the farewell for X is NEXT Saturday. We're gonna have Synd on Friday next week, at our NEW PLACE! EEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKK :D
I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've had this page open
waiting to come up with something to blog... it's been since about 9am. Nothing's come to mind.
They're getting the ring in from upcountry, it'll be arriving on Thursday so we're gonna check it out on the weekend. I'm SO EXCITED!!
Saturday we're going to X&L's party - X's gonna be in Sweden for 6 months. Might have Synd on the Friday. Saturday morning we're gonna have doostyd, then we're gonna go to the shop to check out the ring!!!
Next week we move. The actual date isn't confirmed (I'm waiting for the owner guy to reply to my email with a date that we can get the keys and start moving). There are 11 days til we've OFFICIALLY moved in... but it's likely that we'll be able to move in before the actual month-end. Can't wait. Need to take a leave day to move everything.
I CAN'T WAIT to be OUT of the DUMP! Everything is so fucking moldy and my allergies are hell. The wash-machine has cockroaches IN IT... we're gonna have to open it up to kill/spray/something drastic to get rid of them. They're probably in the microwave and fridge too. HATE that fucking place with all its fucking problems! Today (as I type this) they're at the flat putting in built-in cupboards. No, they COULDN'T wait 10 days. Fuckers. So G's wasting an entire day there.
I will not clean the place. We're going to be out of there next week sometime, they can HAVE a dirty basin/unvacuumed floor/unwashed floor/unclean sink etc etc etc. Fuck them. Not MY problem if the 'new tenants' aren't happy. *I* don't give a shit. Not doing chores gives me more time to stitch! I was stitching yesterday afternoon right til about 10pm. Warpony looks gorgeous (as usual hehe).
WANNA STITCH!! WANNA MOVE!! WANNA GO GET THE RING!! etc etc etc...
EEEEEEEEEK!!!!!!!
We have a LOT of planning to do before November next year - yes, we kinda decided on a date! :D And I've sorta got an idea for a colour theme :D

WTF?!?!?!??!
Today was D-DAY.. Doos-day. Fuckday basically... they came to put in the built-in cupboards... and made a fucking mess. The smell at the flat was so bad the inside of the CAR smelled all gluey from the fumes clinging to G's CLOTHES!
So anyway, they basically arrived at 10:00 and only LEFT at 18:30. Not 17:00... no, apparently they were to work til 18:00. They used the bedroom as a fucking woodworkshop, so there was sawdust EVERYwhere. And they didn't even put the furniture back where it originally was. So WE had to clean up. FOR THE NEW TENANTS. The NEW tenants don't get allergies from the fumes... or raw sinuses from the smell and dust, the NEW tenants don't have to be interrupted with INSTALLATIONS which IMPROVE this DUMP for THEM, the NEW tenants don't have to sit til 18:30 with WORKMEN in their BEDROOM, oh no, WE have to endure it. FUCK YOU PHI. I don't mind saying it over and over. FUCK YOU PHI.
Fuckers!
Oh but what's funny is that they drilled a hole right through the wall through the loo-roll holder brick!
*sigh* FUCK YOU PHI
*sigh*
Dude is high now I guess. Poor thing, I dunno how he survived such toxic fumes. Bastards.
What else is there to blog. Nothing I guess. I'm tired. I'm so tired. Powerlessness tires you out. Is there any payback? Will there be any payback for this SHIT? Bastards getting what is due to them? Mrs Um Green, fuck you, you old crone!

Trrrrrrrrrrring
Kinder Egg, according to the Wisdom of Kit:
"Pull it open and then open the one half and play with the toy and forget the chocolate... and then finish the toy assembly and find the chocolate again and go mmmmmmmmmm"
hehe totally off topic I guess but anyway, what WAS the topic?
Well, on Friday I was "windowshopping" online for bling... teehee calling it that makes it seem less OMG IT'S A RING...................... AN ENGAGEMENT RING GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH like yeah... it's like. Special, not like OMGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH "engagement ring" sounds so clichéd. But ANYway...
so I was looking online and some of them are SO GROSS... totally wrestlers' belts or something you might find in a computer game "collect all the jewels and amulets" CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE COLLECTED ALL 5/5. ON TO THE NEXT LEVEL *tring tring tring ping ping ping*...
So anyway, I found something that I really like, so we went to see if we could find it in the mall nearby. The branch there didn't have it. This afternoon we went to another mall. I'd phoned beforehand to find out whether they have it, and the lady said their area manager was coming in the afternoon and she'd ask her to bring it. But when we got there apparently the area manager hadn't been able to make it. So either they're gonna arrange for her to bring it to us at home after work (I doubt it'd be possible though) or we can go check it out next weekend.
Here's a pic... it's so prettyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :D

So anyway, I found something that I really like, so we went to see if we could find it in the mall nearby. The branch there didn't have it. This afternoon we went to another mall. I'd phoned beforehand to find out whether they have it, and the lady said their area manager was coming in the afternoon and she'd ask her to bring it. But when we got there apparently the area manager hadn't been able to make it. So either they're gonna arrange for her to bring it to us at home after work (I doubt it'd be possible though) or we can go check it out next weekend.
Here's a pic... it's so prettyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :D

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
Yes, another post titled AAAAAAAAAAH! (or something similar)
LOCOROCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hehe why am I nuts today...
Well loads of stuff has happened the past *week*... only a week. We flew to Durban last Saturday. EEEEEEeeeeeeeeekkk... so exciting and we got to the airport and checked in - "window seat or aisle seat?" "(eeeek! :D) window please!!!"... and we end up sitting in like the only row withOUT a window. Friggin' of course, roll eyes everyone. Hehehe... but anyway, we got to Durban, it's so cool! Collected our hire-car which was about as powerful as a lawnmower. Brand new citigolf, with 30km on the clock, and superweak. We trundled out of the airport, got lost, and went around again back into the airport and out again to get onto the PROPER national road :D
Hurtled along (hey, the car was trying its best I'll have you know ;) ) through to the place we were staying. Cute place, bigger than we'd intended but they'd already had a booking for their smaller place so they moved us to this one which was still available and gave it at basically the same price as the smaller place.
AAHHH it was so nice to be on holiday. No deadlines/times to be places, getting up early (at least to be somewhere at a specific time - like work), anything. Could stay up late and sit around and have a mug of tea just whenever. Strange thing about Durban: the sun comes up REALLY early, but then it goes down super-early too. So it's pitchdark and only 6pm. And then it feels like you've been awake until 3am cos it's been dark for ages and it's only 8pm hehe. Something to get used to obviously, because everyone around there is up and about at 6am!
Heheheheheheheheheh!!!!!!!!
The weather there "sucked" according to G's family and everyone that we spoke to there, but it was still 10C warmer than at home, so no comparison! It rained and was windy and everything, but I prefer that ANY time to the damp chills of the dump(flat) we're in now.
We checked out the big mall there (Gateway), went to the beach a few times, went out to lunch and to a farm (petting farm) with G's aunt+uncle+cousin and his grandparents, went to supper at G's aunt+uncle and cousins... went to the casino & gambled a little bit (it's really not as exciting as it's made out to be LOL). Went to see the Simpsons movie! SPIDER PIG FTW! Went to see the Umgeni River Bird Park (SO COOL) and Ushaka Seaworld (but they closed early so we basically had a 5min run around the aquarium trying to see everything before they closed for some or other reason). It was so cool learning our way around everywhere, checking out where to go on the map and invariably getting there via a totally different route.
All in all a FABULOUS time! We flew back and got a window seat this time, the view was spectacular - once again I am amazed at the size of the land and just how high up we are in the plane... it's eery. Clear skies all the way til I think the edge of the Western Cape... and then the clouds started... growing thicker until it was solid. And then coming in to land, we broke through the clouds over False Bay and it was GORGEOUS! Greeny blue water with patches of shadow from the clouds. Gorgeous!
Got back on Saturday. Took P out for lunch (after fetching Dude + G's car from his Dad's place after getting picked up at the airport by G's dad... ), he'd been flat-sitting, doing DOOSTYD for us... ((((Oh, on Friday, while we were having lunch at the Casino, rental-asses phoned me looking for G, they want to put in built-in-cupboards... can they come on the 20th... ARSEHOLES! SURELY YOU CAN FUCKING WAIT 10 FUCKING DAYS?? Retards!))))
Can't WAIT... we're gonna be out of the place in 17 days (more likely to be fewer days though!)
And in other news: It was G and my 1st year anniversary yesterday! We've been together for 1 year! :D Love you, my Squishy!
G had arranged "secrets" for yesterday... he's been driving me nuts with curiosity and impatience, I've been dying to find out what they are... and yesterday I did!
He gave me a sparkly shiny little paper bag with three wrapped parcels. They had a particular order to them... so I opened the first box. It was quite heavy, and a nice rectangular shape. The kinda shape you get with boxes that contain such things as a 'user manual' hehehhehehehe. It was that kinda box! It was a PSP box!!!!!!!!!!
MAN it's so cute! So funky shiny small little big colourful (the screen is bright), LOVELy little thing!
Then onto the next parcel. Smaller... lighter. Carefully unwrapped it, and it's LOCOROCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO ADORABLE! Waited ages (ok only 2hrs 20mins but I was so excited it felt like years) for the PSP to charge, and it was about 11pm when it was done and then we loaded the stuff on it and put Locoroco in it and WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Hehe, Locoroco is too cute for words!
And the 3rd parcel? Well, that's still a bit of a secret.... all will be revealed soon!

Aaahsum!!!!!
Everything's awesome this week. It's AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH (I'm listening to the Chembros' new album and I LOVE IT! a FUNKy song just started as I am typing... hence the interruption)... aaaaaaaaa...
Things have broken through and improved! It's so cool.
The receptionistRETARD has left. I overheard her on Monday afternoon telling someone that she'd be in late the next day cos she had an appointment. Then she left early, saying she had an appointment. She didn't pitch the next day. It was her last day, but she didn't pitch because (silly silly bosses) she'd been paid on payday along with the rest of us. So basically she stole that day's pay from them. What an absolute bitch. I still hope someone drives over her some day.
Anyway, the new girl who is just temping is very sweet. A very quiet girl, very polite and very small hehe. Such a pleasure (in her own right, not just in contrast to The Lady) to work with.
Sis got transferred back to the library she used to work part-time at before. She's permanent there now, which is very cool cos she loved it there and couldn't stand the library she was moved to and made permanent (a very boring, dull place). So things are good there now. Hopefully everything else will fall into step too.
I CAN'T WAIT: We are off on a week's holiday tomorrow. We fly at 13:40 or so. I CAN'T WAIT! I've already packed most of my stuff, just gotta unpack my work bag and take some things from it in my other bag. CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!
There are 28 days until we MOVE OUT! It's so exciting too! I have this extreme wish that after work we could go home to the new place not the current dump. Too exciting! I'm so impatient to just MOVE and start enjoying the new place. To enjoy the sunlight, to sleep late (no flat viewing shit), to enjoy the carpeted bedrooms/staircase, to enjoy the spacious kitchen, to enjoy the little garden, to enjoy the modern bathroom, AAAAAAAAAH I CAN'T WAIT!!!!
Hehehe, I must seem like the most impatient person right now but I just am so excited about it.
Needless to say I haven't been stitching much lately... poor 'Pony. Well, when we get back from the holiday, there will be 3 weeks left so maybe I will stitch then. that last week we will be packing everything finally and moving it all so I guess I'll only have 2 weeks to stitch. Ah well, we'll see.
TODAY IS FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The new CDs I bought ROCK!!!! Absolute Garbage (the remix disk is COOL), Suede (it kinda has been sidelined by the ... ) CHEMICAL BROTHERS! Man oh man I'm enjoying this album!!!!!!!!! Also got the Cardigans' First Band on the Moon. Hey... haven't I blogged about this already? AYYYYYYYYYYYY I dunno... well if I have, I'M STILL GLAD I GOT THE ALBUMS!!
*turns ipod up a bit louder*
I probably won't blog again til we're back from the holiday, so til then HAVE A BLAST!!

Accumulated excitement
Lots going on... we didn't take boxes away this weekend, probably will do that this week.
Tomorrow is "The Lady's last day". I can't wait! They have a temp in to learn from the lady, she'll be standing in but I dunno for how long.
Friday was payday. I checked my bank balance and noticed something 'extra' was deposited. I played it safe and didn't go nuts with the money on the weekend. I wanted to see what it was - what amount was on my payslip. It IS a bonus. It sorts out ALL of my debt so now I'm FREE from any debts! FINALLY!
WOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
G and I went out on Saturday, had lunch, got a few groceries, I bought a popcorn making machine (a cute thing which uses hot air to pop the corn, it's SO CUTE!!!!!!). Also bought 3 CDs. Suede's 'greatest hits' "Singles", The Chemical Brothers "We Are The Night" and The Cardigans' "The First Band On The Moon". YEEEEEEHAAAAAA!!!! Love them!!!! Didn't realise that the Cardigans had more albums, I thought they only had 3. There are about 3 others, but they don't seem available in SA... Amazon ;);););)
I CAN'T WAIT for Saturday. A week-long holiday in Durban! A plane trip (wheeeeeeeeeee), and a nice self-catering place and just a WEEK OFF! It's taken forEVER for this week to come, and now it's ONLY JUST not here yet. Not long to go!
There are 32 days until we MOVE OUT of the dump. I still cannot believe they installed a 2nd hand basin. It's unbelievable. Regardless... we are moving out. We will have a SUNNY little place with a cute little garden. I CAN'T WAIT.
I guess this blog-post could be summarised as "I CAN'T WAIT!!!" hehe.
I'm so impatient to get things done now. I want to pack for the holiday. I want to pack to move. I actually wish we were moving first, but still, I'm just glad things are going to happen. Also, I want to stitch! Got working on Warpy again, I'm making good progress with him except for the fact that I have such long breaks between stitching! He's looking great. Hopefully I can finish him before we move into the new place. Ok yeah, unlikely but I can try ;)
YEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

We're nearing the end
Not in a bad way hehe. Kinda nearing the home-straight.
We had pizza last night. Pretty much huddled in bed all evening, the weather was incredible with insane rain and an awesome thunderstorm hehe. It was amazing.
We move out in 35 days.
Today is payday.
There are just 2 working days til this "lady" leaves. She hasn't been so intolerable today.
There are only 7 days left til we go on holiday.
We have our flights, car and accommodation booked. We are ready to ROCK next Saturday! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!
It feels like this evening's gonna be a DVDs and popcorn kinda evening. Sitting snuggled with a blanket, watching movies. It's a pity we can't put the TV in the bedroom cos then we could let Dude hang out/watch with us hehe.
We're gonna drop off some more boxes this weekend, maybe also some clothes (probably summer clothes) that we aren't going to use over the next while.
OH MAN it's just started to hail and it's FREEZING all of a sudden! THIS WEATHER IS NUTS!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Help
I'm going crazy. I'm losing my mind. Everything's going wrong and I just want time out to regain my footing. I am falling down hard and I need to just stop and find my feet, find solid ground. I need time out.
I just want to stop. This ride is going too fast, I want to get off and wait for it to finish. I want 31 August to come and go. I want it to be September already. I want to be free of this POISON rental agency, I want to be able to sleep at night and not be woken up by people shitting or pissing upstairs. Or going up or down the stairs, or slamming the security gate or slamming their door. I can't sleep. I am so exhausted. I just want peace. I want to recover. It's worse and worse, it's all accumulating and going septic.
There is no stability at work too. You think you can go home after work and relax but you can't. You can't, because other people play music so loudly that your head pounds and the floor vibrates. That's the minute you get home. Can't relax after that, can't even go to the loo or take a nap cos it's flat-viewing. There is no peace. Once flat viewing's over it's late, it's night, it's bedtime and they're making noise. They just don't stop. There is no end to it.
Now on top of that, I'm at work. I have a cunt bitch receptionist bastard bloody woman. She hums, and then when I ask her to stop she won't. She hums extra and then puts her phone mp3 player on and clicks her fingers too. So I ask her again louder and more angrily to damn well stop so she's all fucking angry at me. Bitch. That was yesterday. Today, the same thing.
She's leaving Tuesday. Fucking thank the fucking lord. But that's not completely free of stress. They haven't started to interview anyone. They haven't even asked the accountant to put an ad out for a new receptionist. The typist who's been here 30+ years says they're probably going to make me stand in. Fucking no way.
I'll resign. I am NOT happy being told I'm going to be a PA and then being slapped in the face and told no I'm an "admin assistant". Now, EVERY FUCKING THING this woman wants to do, I have to stand in for her. She's late? Fuck me, I'm switchboard. She's going out this afternoon, leaving at 15:30 to go to a CHURCH FUNCTION at 18:00. *I* have to stand in for her. A CHURCH function?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I am so tired. Fuck them with their shitty personnel management. I'm not a PA? So you can pay me less? Thanks. I'll remember that when you ask me to stand in as receptionist. Will you pay me both her salary and mine? Fuck you, you should have been doing that since she fucking started - worthless, useless piece of shit that she is.
This month coming is going to be EXHAUSTING. I'm already breaking now.
We're arguing now. I am sad. I don't want to. We are arguing and it's hurting the most because right now we need each other the most. I just want time out. I am fighting to stay me, but I'm not managing. I just want time out... I don't mean it. I don't want to be angry... I want time to recover and love again. I never stopped. I would never stop.

And now
We were doing detention Thursday evening, and the inspector dude appears out of nowhere to come measure the basin.
He says he's insisted they replace the damn thing, not just re-enamel it - "you'll get a call probably tomorrow to cancel the re-enamelling" - he's going to try find a basin that fits.
At about 18:30 they phoned G and said they "won't be needing access to the flat tomorrow". THANK YOU, "people", for messing us around!
When are they going to be doing this basin-replacement?? I hope it takes that guy 20 years to find a suitable basin!
It is now Saturday morning, and we were doing our detention. It was about 10, and I was brushing my teeth. I heard voices in the flat and when I came out the bathroom, there were three guys in the bedroom - the inspector dude and two others. Measuring the wall. The rental arsefuckers want to put in built-in cupboards. "They aren't going to do that while we're still here are they?!?!" I snap. "No, they'll (probably) wait til you've gone" says the inspector dude. "They'd bloodywell better wait!" says G.
What the hell? What next?? I mean, why aren't we informed beforehand that that guy is going to pop up out of nowhere and intrude?? No, we never know. Ok we don't *mind* that guy cos at least he's not on the rental arsefuckers' side, but STILL, damn it! We'd like to know when he'll strike next!
Last night we went out to the Waterfront to meet up with a Uni-mate of G's, he and his fiance are back in town from Canada. We couldn't find them in the restaurant at first but eventually found them. Right faaaaaaaaar into the restaurant (as far away from the "live artist" as possible I think! That guy was FAR too loud and FAR too "into things" HAHAHA... he had music-video DJ moves down pat).
Had a wonderful time with them and some other mates of G's friend (and sis+sis's G)... had YUM supper and just chatted and enjoyed ourselves. Hearing stories of what life is like in Canada - apparently people leave their cars running while they pop into the shops so that the car doesn't freeze up hehehe! I hope they can come visit again soon :)
I CAN'T WAIT FOR 4 AUGUST!!!! G and I are going to Durban for a week!!!! Car hire is a bitch (so tricky!!!) and we still have to find out about accommodation, but I CAN'T WAIT TO FLY AGAIN!!!!! :D :D :D :D
Little Dude is TOO CUTE. He was fiddling with his waterbowl last weekend, so we put a small bowl with a tiny bit of water into his cage. He had SUCH FUN splashing around - he bathed longer than any other budgie I've ever known. Not afraid of the bowl, not hesitant at all, he basically just jumped straight in.
Apparently kittens and balls of wool go together. Well, a budgie and a piece of string = a lot of entertainment! He managed to pull the whole piece of string into his cage and wind it around his perches.
I CAN'T WAIT TO MOVE INTO THE NEW PLACE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I'm going to put a barstool in front of all the windows, so that I can sit and stare at the view. It hasn't got a STUNNING view but it at least allows you to see the sea/city. This flat/dump we're in has a view of a brick wall+G's car, and the undercover parking+flats next door and about 1"x1" of the mountain. Sucks. It's very depressing. It also gets NO sunlight except for between 15:10 and 15:20 and any sunlight that happens to reflect of someone's window in the next door flat. LOVELY. The NEW place... BOTH the upstairs and downstairs have windows that face north - SUNLIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't wait to get home in the evening, and sit in the garden with a can of coke. That's gonna ROCK!!!!
Ok - back to stitching, I'm working on Warpy some more. G got news that the work that had a deadline for NEXT Tuesday has to be in THIS Tuesday. Warpony here I come! *evil grin*
He says he's insisted they replace the damn thing, not just re-enamel it - "you'll get a call probably tomorrow to cancel the re-enamelling" - he's going to try find a basin that fits.
At about 18:30 they phoned G and said they "won't be needing access to the flat tomorrow". THANK YOU, "people", for messing us around!
When are they going to be doing this basin-replacement?? I hope it takes that guy 20 years to find a suitable basin!
It is now Saturday morning, and we were doing our detention. It was about 10, and I was brushing my teeth. I heard voices in the flat and when I came out the bathroom, there were three guys in the bedroom - the inspector dude and two others. Measuring the wall. The rental arsefuckers want to put in built-in cupboards. "They aren't going to do that while we're still here are they?!?!" I snap. "No, they'll (probably) wait til you've gone" says the inspector dude. "They'd bloodywell better wait!" says G.
What the hell? What next?? I mean, why aren't we informed beforehand that that guy is going to pop up out of nowhere and intrude?? No, we never know. Ok we don't *mind* that guy cos at least he's not on the rental arsefuckers' side, but STILL, damn it! We'd like to know when he'll strike next!
Last night we went out to the Waterfront to meet up with a Uni-mate of G's, he and his fiance are back in town from Canada. We couldn't find them in the restaurant at first but eventually found them. Right faaaaaaaaar into the restaurant (as far away from the "live artist" as possible I think! That guy was FAR too loud and FAR too "into things" HAHAHA... he had music-video DJ moves down pat).

WTF
Yes, once more I am forced to blog with a negative tone.
Yesterday evening, while we were doing our flat-viewing detention, someone pulls up just outside our door - a maintenance guy.
"I'm here to check whether the basin and the cistern are the same colour"
WHAT EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
So this morning, G gets a call from the rental arseholes saying they want to re-enamel the basin (which has been broken for the past 6 years according to the inspector guy), will anyone be home during the day today. G told them that we'll be home between 17:30 and 19:30.
They bloodywell CAN NOT come work on the place while we're there. Not during the day, not between 17:30 and 19:30. Not on a Saturday morning between 9:00 and 11:00! It's bad enough that we are sitting through flat-viewing, because we have stuff to do during that time and their coming to fix things would prevent us from doing those things. G carries on working when he gets home (since we have an internet connection he works a lot of overtime), and I have stuff to do around the flat like PACKING and washing up and washing clothes and ironing etc etc! They can honestly go to hell in a handbasket!
I am SERIOUSLY reaching the end of my sanity-tether. I'm FED up with THEIR fucking drunkard tenants, I'm sick of having interrupted sleep because of their fucking drunkards and wankers and bastards who despite our complaints they have done nothing about. I'm seriously getting beyond pissed off. My frustration is converting itself to aggression and anger.
FUCK YOU PHI! FUCK YOU!
