Green eyed monsters
Why should it bother me that I am not the sort of person people fall for, when I have the worlds best guy at home every night waiting for me? Why should I be jealous of friends I have who become the object of everybody’s affection? I know it probably annoys them more that they attract this attention, than it annoys me who doesn’t. Even I have been known to flirt with these people, despite not being that way inclined. Eh I don’t know, and now I am out of time. What a pointless entry, I shouldn’t even post it. It sounds so shallow without all the thoughts behind it…
ohohohohohoh
Well we signed all the mortgage documents last night, the loan offer, the terms and conditions etc, now we just have to wait, and pack of course, which we are being VERY slack about. So far we are up to 5 boxes done, 2 of books, 2 of videos and 1 of cds, pathetic huh? I have been really sick again recently, although I have still been at work for the most part. I think the other night was due to a bad reaction to the spices on what I had for dinner, so I am not overly concerned about that. I am going to go see another doctor at some point, probably my mum’s one, she swears her doctor is the best and won’t think I am a hypochondriac. And she will come with me Work is driving me up the wall, I am sick of people. SICK TO DEATH OF THEM. And I have to be here til about 6:30 – 7:00ish tonight, waiting for someone to turn up for a meeting, his plane lands at 5:15, I hope it is on time and traffic doesn’t hold him up too much! I felt so terrible the other night when I was sick, I felt all ugly inside, so I got Mark to straighten my hair for me so I at least felt semi pretty on the outside. I was in such a droopy mood that night, very sooky, being sick does that to me. I also am pathetic when it comes to a lot of other things, but don’t feel like beating myself up too much at the moment, so I shan’t go into it. Oh yeah, before anyone ELSE mentions it… I. AM. NOT. PREGNANT!
Sick and tired of being sick and tired… AGAIN!
I am not at work today, I have had horrible stomach pains for the last few days, and this morning I woke up all dizzy and then I was sick. I called my brother and told him to pass the word around work that I won’t be in, I am really not happy about being sick again. And I am so BORED with the Olympics and there is NOTHING else on TV! We went to see my friend Katie last night, she has just gotten out of hospital after having an operation on her heart, and numerous blood transfusions. The poor thing, she is the one who got married recently to an English guy, and he is working in Sydney at the moment for 6 weeks at a time so she has been all alone. I promised we will come to see her every week until she goes back to work, to keep her company. She cannot go back to work for at least a month, and possibly might have to stay home until Christmas as her work has had an outbreak of meningacoccal (no idea how you spell that, will be interesting to see if the spell check knows what I am trying to write) recently and they are worried that it could be fatal for someone in her current condition. We took her some flowers and chocolates and sat around talking about absolutely nothing for a few hours, it was fun. Mark changed some blown light globes for her as she has to climb on tables etc to reach the fittings,a nd her husband has told her in no uncertain terms that she is not to be doing that at the moment! I can’t remember the last time I updated, did I mention he was working with us now too? Bro needed another hand on deck for night shift, so he got the gig. They are working day shift at the moment though, so I see them quite a bit. It isn’t TOO awkward, we do our best. Mark’s car is STILL in being fixed, been almost 3 weeks now, and it doesn’t look like we will get it back anytime soon. Our mortgage papers have arrived at the solicitor, we are going to see him on Tuesday to sign them all. I am so tired. My stomach hurts. Bah. I hate being sick, blah blah, whinge whinge etc. Going to star aimlessly into the cupboard and wish it held something I can eat. PS Spell check thinks it should be either Monongahela or mononuclear, er no.
Random Thoughts
I figure people are getting sick of leaving comments on old entries whent hey want to reply to comments I have left for them, so I am posting an entry. I don’t have anything to say though, so maybe I should do some work? I have no motivation though. I have to go to a photo shoot this afternoon that I don’t want to go to. I insisted on going though, because I don’t trust them to get it right without me there, even though they have done it a hundred times, the time I don’t go they will put the wrong products on the wrong rails and we will have to reshoot, I just know it. Oh crap, I forgot to order a metal hose… BRB Heh I now remembered about 10 things I forgot and made the sales guys change the picking slip each time, I am evil. Ah well, that is what Friday the 13th is for. I am so tired. I slept a lot last night, and pretty deeply, but I haven’t recovered from the bad nights sleep the rest of the week. And now the news. I said right from the start when baby Montana was kidnapped from the Deer Park shopping centre that she was probably better off with the kidnappers than her parents, afterall, what sane minded Australian calls the child freaking MONTANA? And I used to live in Deer Park. People said I was terrible for saying such a thing, and how could bad parents make such an impassioned plea for her return? Well now it turns out the guy has 7 other kids to two other women, none of whom knew about each other. They are claiming it is all bullshit and they are all trouble makers, but we shall see. Oh yeah, and don’t forget the drug peddling charges, and the conspiracy for major drug trafficking with the infamous Melbourne underworld drug pimps… Everyone still think the baby should be brought up in her existing environment? And don’t give me some shit about the mother not knowing about her husbands drug connections, on some level, they always know… Hmm what else irritated me on the news last night… I forget. *yawns* Kitty is coming over tomorrow night for board games and TISMy goodness, yay! Oh yeah, I finally got the photos off my camera, must remember to upload them tomorrow night, boobs and tism are good. I am so sick of dealing with printers, I am sick of redoing artwork because they didn’t tell me what they need correctly the first time. I am really dreading getting our price list printed in China, so I am pushing as hard as I can for them to get it done locally, so we can control the process, see the proofs and just generally have some peace of mind! Not to mention supporting Aussie businesses rather than exploiting the sub standard working conditions of an over populated country! /rant 6 weeks to the day til we get the keys for our new abode. My boss has agreed to me having time off, which is great. Mark is going to ask today about his, it will be a nice change to not be trying to fit everything in over 2 days, but to have 6 days to settle in before I have to come back to work. Well I have written enough drivel for one day. Take care, have a great weekend!
yay
I just realised I never told everyone that we have got our house, everything has gone through correctly and we are just waiting on the mortgage papers to sign our lives away! We are going to have another look through tomorrow, so i will take my camera for some extra photos!
Thinking positive
A weekend of rollercoastering emotions. I got angry at mark on Friday night because he refused to get excited about our loan being approved, he just seemed like he didn’t care at all. I understood when he didn’t want to make a big deal out of it while we were still waiting to find out, but he didn’t change once we knew. I ended up yelling at him, even though I felt bad while I was doing it, then he got upset cos I was yelling at him and blah blah blah. We sorted it out over some fattening burgers and a few alcoholic beverages We went to a Sunday market yesterday, and bought some computer games and DVD’s etc, a mini splurge in aid of our long term goal of filling the house with things we can do instead of going out and spending money! We were going to go visit S (who was back in town for a funeral) afterwards, but on our way out of the market, we got into a bit of a bother when 2 cars had an accident, and one of them careened off into our car as a result. Over 2.5 hours later we finally got home again, minus Mark’s car, which is now once again in for repairs that aren’t his fault. We mist out on seeing S, which really was the most sucky part of the equation. We went to a housewarming on Saturday night, we had an absolute ball, I love hanging out with people as weird as we are Anywho, here are some pics of the house
He is a lot more positive and cheerful about it now, he even allowed me to make some “what if we do this…” type statements at some point heh
I win.
We sang stupid songs all night and talked about the pros and cons of milking a horny dog, and the benefits vs drawbacks of the person performing the act being emotionally involved… don’t ask!
In case anyone is interested, it isn’t final STILL, but we are getting close, so I am thinking positive and sharing these!
