The weekend was quiet again. Yes, there is still a bit of a cold war over here. It's not him. It's me. I don't usually hold onto things for this long but I guess I'm just at my wit's end and am feeling a bit lost. My emotions are going the proverbial "all over the shop" at the moment, so I'm just trying to play it cool.We didn't end up seeing a movie on Friday night again. Yes, we are starting to develop a bad habit of just staying at home, as soon as the boys had moved down to ...
It's been a very trying day... mostly because I've been unable to concentrate on anything properly...On the up side, I found a note in my letterbox telling me that a parcel was waiting for me at the Post Office... which was handy because I also needed to send a parcel.I love parcels...Oh, and I increased my Fringe Show ticket count by one... young Master Josh Thomas...Unconscious Mutterings 366...
My mother is a psychopath...Or sociopath... or whatever we're calling it these days.She has had way too much fun (way more than $6 worth in fact) with the Target teddies we bought yesterday...At random times over the past two days I've gotten random picture messages from her which display something of a serial killer vibe towards the teddies...The comments in italics are the messages she sent me along with the photos...It all started so well...All safely buckled up for the ride home..."When she said did I want to come home with her, she never mentioned the ironing!" ...
It's been a funny old day...Everything started off reasonably normally, except for the fact that Ma and I took separate cars down for the second week in a row (and next week will make three weeks in a row), since she was headed straight off from the supermarket to go and get her hair did.That and the fact that I forgot my wallet and my belt and my car stereo fascia first thing this morning... I was doing real well there...And I think I've mentioned before that I don't like Stocktaking Days at the supermarket... it's that combination ...
Something snapped just off Rundle Street on the way to breakfast on Australia Day... and yes, that sausage is exactly what you think it is... although I didn't notice it until I looked at the pic later.And it's actually a fitting symbol for today...I had a highly unexpected encounter at lunch... unexpected not only because of the swiftness of it, but the fact that the other party would normally be way out of my league. And while it didn't have the outcome I would have liked, it was still a pleasant, if strange, way to spend half of ...
For today's Random Hotness we have the spectacularly buzzcutted and stunningly green-eyed Louisiana model, Daniel Edward Miller...I mean seriously, look at those eyes! Stunning! Current Mood: ...
Something from the Melbourne file... sunset over the Yarra...I don't really have a lot to say... today was kinda weird... like a Monday, but not...I woke up with a headache this morning, I kinda hope it was more about a lack of sleep rather than, you know, the fact that I essentially gassed myself for four hours last night. That's what happens when you don't turn the stove off properly. Thank goodness the door was open.So, yeah... that's about it really...Current Mood: ...
Well, it's been a funny old Australia Day really...I decided to sleep in this morning, which was nice... and then lay in bed for a while fiddling with my iPhone (which sounds kinda dirty, but really wasn't)... it was weird though, being a Tuesday and all, being able to lie in bed and not have to rush around.Eventually I rolled out of bed and got myself ready to face the day, then ended up watching an episode of Dollhouse while waiting for Ma to come down so we could start our plans for the day.Sadly I also discovered ...
I think that the easiest way to classify Up in the Air is to say that it's equally what you'd expect and also not what you'd expect...And, as I commented to Ma afterwards, George Clooney joins that club of actors who are kinda always themselves in movies...which isn't to say that his performance isn't excellent, but the essential Clooneyness does shine through... maybe to the advantage of the character.It's a great movie though... even if it does take a little while to warm up... I kinda felt that it wasn't until the scene with the trio of ...
Since July 2009 (When I first bought the Glenorchy property), the Australian
Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) have been upgrading the line from Serviceton
(VIC/SA Border). It wasn't until November that they finally arrived at
Glenorchy. At the beginning of January the Ballast train had arrived and
was being station in the siding at Glenorchy.

For the first time in like 5 years, I actually don't feel an incredible urge to update my blog. Things have been a bit beige to say the least. I am having trouble reconnecting with Sam. I think a part of me has detached, which is more serious than I initially thought.The week flew by last week, even though work had been slow, so I found myself doing things like researching and putting together my new dream PC and chatting with friends in general. Sammy and I went out to Sporties on Thursday night to catch up, which was ...
It's been a weird day... I had two days off (you know, commonly called the weekend), then back to work today... then tomorrow is a public holiday... then back to work on Wednesday... weird I tells ya!And even though I essentially did nothing all day, the time still seemed to fly (mostly)... so who knows what the hell is going on there...Unconscious Mutterings...
I've "exposed my apartment" twice before... and while the general layout doesn't change at all, the details do... picture here, picture there, random tchotchkas shuffle around...Although what's strange, even to me, is that even though I put 28 litres of stuff in a box yesterday (which is now loitering under my head), when I put the reduced amounts of stuff back in place last night, the shelves are all still full essentially. Which pretty much tells me that they were seriously overstuffed before I started.I'm so not designed to do the minimalism thing though... I'd go nuts...But ...
