A quick home time blog! - because Phil isn't on her email, and i have no one to tell that there is only 25 minutes till the weekend! YAY!
Weekend here we come!
4:44 pm
How NUTTY is this Horoscope!
CAPRICORN (Dec 22–Jan 19): There’s a sense of unimportance about the day that feels contrary to how much you have to do. It may seem like you are putting out fires and dealing with one crisis after another. It’s enough to make you crazy. You won’t go crazy, however, for your perspective is a bit warped and ultimately don’t think what’s happening now is important enough to send you off the deep end
4:36 pm
FRIDAY AT LAST!
There is nothing better than knowing that you have two days of relaxation ahead of you! No work, No Clients, no nothing!!!
I have already had a crazy start to the day... I came in to work first thing in the morning, so as i could get a few things out of the way, then divert the phones and head for the airport! Dad got there before me unfortunately... didn't realise it was such a crap to get to the airport from Balmain... I guess i am kinda spoilt living so close!(and not under any flight paths!)
I dropped him at home, and set him up with a coffee, and the cricket... and then belted back to work! and here i sit!!!
in four hours, i leave here... hopefully! - and head to The X, to get lee, then home to see dad... was thinking maybe we will go to Yens for dinner... a cheap little restaurant, with great food!
So far the plan for the weekend is this!
Friday night - dinner at Yens,
Saturday Morning - breakfast, and maybe a trip to paddies! Lunch somewhere!
Saturday afternoon - Lee to the accountant while Dad and i head out to Balmoral to see Jim and the Kids.
Saturday Night - Dad at the Mackellars, and Sparks and Lee catching up on stuff to be done!
Sunday Morning - To the Gallery? and lunch somewhere nice!
Saturday Afternoon - Drinks with Seer!
Sunday Night - Cook up at home!
Monday Morning... depressingly back at work!
Its going to be one hell of a weekend! I am really looking forward to it!
now all i need is someone to BRING IT ON!!!

Then four more weekends, then we will be in Bali!
I know... enough about Bali... its getting boring for all those that have to hear about it but can't do it!
Its going to be a busy few months i think!
My blogging action is poor... will come back when i have more to say!
Thought of the day!
Lee and i had an argument about nutty people last night, and we disagreed on an aquaintence... After talking to Jessie, i see that personality flaws dont neccesarily make someone Carzy (in the true sense of the word) - Though their behaviour can seem uncontrolled and viod of any social skill! - and that there are personality flaws that are far worse that emotional instability. Its easy to group together people that you dont understand, and/or dont like.
Jessie helped me clarify the difference. I guess because crazy is a term so loosly used, it can be misinterpreted, and misused. However we also discussed behaviour that is crazy, yet not based on Phycological malfunction and agreed that Malicious behaviour which is done sainly, Is a far uglier and more unpleasant trait than emotional instability, and out weighs any emotional disorder when it comes to undesirable behaviour.
We came to the conclusion that of two people, one emotionally unstable, and one who is malicious, the malicious is far more of a worry than the unstable. its also agreed that its personality traits like malice especially under the guise of stupidity shows people at thier ugliest. Just thoughts, will think more on this!

One down, four to go!
On my way home from work last night, i took a few photo's of the trip between Balmain and Kings X!
Some of them turned out to be interesting, and some just very Sydney... thought i would blog tem for the hell!
See below!
Glebe Bridge
Up Into the City
Coopers and Lybrand
Centrepoint
Coke Sign in the Cross
We had a yummy Vietnamese for dinner last night, and then settled in to watch some TV. All the lights dimmed, the phone and TV went dead, and then shebang... all Power down in Alexandria... So we cuddled under a blanket on the couch! (No Heater!) and ate maltesers!! praying that it would come on before Sopranos... and to our amazement!! it came on about 5 mins before... !!!
so we watched and then headed to bed!
I think i got out of the wrong side of the bed (even though there is only one side!) this morning! I got dressed, and then proceeded to throw my whole cup of coffee over myself... so i went and got dressed again!! I am hoping this is not a sign of the day ahead!
Dad is coming on Friday! which is very very very exciting... i am looking forward to hanging out with him for a bit! Dad and I used to have dinner in Sydney in a little Japanese Noodle house right up in the City... I am looking forward to doing it again!
Another day god damn it! Here's hoping it goes quickly... at least while i am in the office!

Monday again.... surprise surprise!!!
On Friday i didn't got home from work till about 6.30... and then We went and saw full throttle with Jason and Rick!! It was a lot of fun, and managed to pull us all out of our grumpy moods!
On Saturday morning we got up and had a coffee, and then started on Lee's dreds... Gina came and helped for a good chunk of the day!
Sparks stupidly decided she would put a foil in her hair while she was doing lee's hair, and then got a bit side tracked.. resulting in a chemical cut!! well done sparks.. you have only been growing that hair for a year or so!!!!
pretty depressing really... not the end of the world though.. but my hair dresser will be a bit annoyed!
On Saturday night we settled in and read some Harry!!! and then followed it up with finishing the book last night!!
Sunday was really nice... the sun shone... we went out and had breakfast with some friends of lee's
and then went shopping... we got Jessie a little treat from a clothing warehouse around the corner from our house...
we bought a bin from hardware house (whinge to come!), dropped the boys in for a bath, and got the house under control!!
SIRIUS....................................Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
Gripe time... ( to be read to the rythym of hammer time - MC hammer!.... Just kidding!)
Every council i have lived in has provided bins for your rubbish! Where i live now they don't! Therefore bin stealing is rife! The council has also decided that they are going to fine people for leaving rubbish out - Lee said she read somewhere that the fine is $700 - ... not sure if they could do that! its a pretty hefty damn fine! so that along with the Tosser advertisements are putting a lot of pressure on people putting out their rubbish to make sure its in a bin.
After having my bin pinched, i decided that i wasn't going to buy a new bin every week so i started putting out my rubbish, carefully packaged.. (most of the time!) out at our back gate in the lane behind our house. Yesterday we walked out and found that the rubbish that we had put out the night before had yellow tape all around it - kinda like police tape, and the tape said.. Illegal Material - Under Investigation!! - We hurried out to buy another bin, to try and avoid the fine, but tell me this...... If you live in inner Sydney/Redfern/waterloo, and people keep pinching your bins.. How the hell are you supposed to avoid these fines, without spending $1040 per year on Bins! There is something stupid about the way the world is becoming... the councils are making people accountable for their rubbish - Fine, no problems here, but when they make is more difficult by depriving the poorer inner southern suburbs of Sydney of council supplied bins, that most other councils provide, and threaten $700 fines for not complying with their rules, how the hell are you supposed to keep out of trouble, when junkies and other such un-community conscious residents decide that your bin, would be better placed serving them! What is this world coming to!!!
Was that a whinge or what!
I guess i had better start working on what i am paid for! Here's hoping this week is a breeze!
