Up in Brisbane, met _Indigo_ and kye for the first time. Both surprised me ( I forgot the rule of the internet the camera can deceive... One was shorter than I thought she would be the other taller, life is full of little surprises. Very grateful to Damnation_game and Lelaina (who also surprised me on that front too, she's shorter than I imagined), but so... Read More
Hello! I'm supposed to be reading 'Slaughter House Five' for bookclub... I'm also reading Dorothy Parker's 'El Dorado'. It's sad. Luckily this photo is not sad. Not sad at all!
Just had a long day and its not getting better. I hate dialup, I hate the fact my computer's crap, I hate the fact that I have something that means I will inevitiably slip up in my structure (when I write), and this is the worst medium for me, really. Because I writing stuff down, its late. All I could hear this morning through the... Read More
Twice I've had to sit through the soul-destroying/stomach churning/brain cell reducing trailer for the Bratz movie. It's almost worth it just to read the reviews of the poor bastards who had to sit through the entire thing.
Yeah, I was once called a hypocrite cos I had said something but a guest visiting the place I was renting did the oposite. That got to me cos I was being held responcible for someone elces actions.
Yeah, I used to work at a video store and every Wednesday the Onion would be dropped off and some people didn't know what it was and would get really offended by the headlines. It was nice to have it around when I got bored, too.
Damn well dont say a thing,i dont want to be responaible for your book related demise my friend.Indeed i have heard there is a reprive myself,thats about as much as i know of the new book.
Scuse my ignorance but are they intending to make a film of every book ?
Less than 9 hours and counting...
Caught up with Charles because the SOB decided to move from Ringwood back to the city. Basically Adam and I hauled all his crap (and it was a lot of crap) back to an apartment block along Swanston. The man is a pat rack.
Oh yeah MissShell, tell that housemate of yours, she really manage to surprise me,... Read More
Wow, counting down? Crazy people and their countdowns.
You're right, she does raise interesting points, but they are always colored with her own personal bias. It's annoying and frustrating. She calls sexism on everything, even when it has nothing to do with being sexist, it's just that the target happens to be female. Everything is about being a girl. Everything is about being a fucking feminazi and being the victim. The victim?! For someone who decries the lack of equality around here you'd think she'd point out the ways in which women are strong more often and not point out all the wrongs done to them ALL the time. If you want a person to be equal to another then prove they deserve it. Yep, I'm a bitch and I don't care. Not everyone is equal to me because some people really are low. So if you don't want women, as a whole, to be seen as such, prove they are better than that. And she comes back with such useless little insults when she can't think of anything to defend herself with anymore. The real gold with her is watching her respond to people in the comments, not just her articles that are so slanted they're like a seesaw caught with a four hundred pound women on one end and a fifty pound little boy on the other.
Most people in my the Human Services industry have not had any formal training. Funnily enough though, they do have all the "right" policies in place (most of the time), they just arnt adhered to.
There are some fantastic theories in this sector too, that have ways in which to support those in need through the process of change to get them to where they want/need to be rather than using old theories which are about, getting funding for 6 months, helping those in need for a while, the funding bodies then see that problem as "fixed" which leads to the decision that the funding is no longer required to be renewed. Service closes. One big draining circle.
The workers hold so much responcibility and power in the way this system is run... but yeah, most are patronising and demanding rather than client focused.
Doing the draft play reading tomorrow, currently up, slaving over script, changing any last minute real fuck ups, but since it's late will probably miss a couple anyway.
Also need to get the damn thing printed before it starts.
Of absolutely no importance, but just a comment, sat through a My Chemical Romance clip that was on Rage this morning, just because I bitch about... Read More
I didnt even bother to go to the second. It was a strength recognition and building course, damn it. I hate knowing that people are not doing their jobs adequately - particularly in an area in which I am trained. Its so frustrating.
Mmmm gels. Sorry, I'm kind of a lighting whore. Never did much in theatre, but it's one of my loves in film. My brain may just be on the fritz, it does that a lot, but FOH?
I'm almost better......but not quite enough to party too hard. Just as a side note, Joe isn't coming. He took me for coffee tonight, was a good catch up this time...and i stayed sober
Looking forward to seeing you mora night....I'm going about 830 & its bourke st not swanston...but i'll text you after i finish work....see you soon

How could one stupid fucking little thing lead to my mum basically disowning my uncle (even if he is a dick), why put so much effort into hating someone?
Look the man is a tool, but that's all. I couldn't... Read More
being disowned over a Toyota Camry .. ouch thats harsh... and yeah why let stuff fester .. just walk away and invest nothing into the relationship ( couch potato style )
you coming up for ball?.. if so i will organize a booking for that beggars chicken i told you about.. ahh i need a drooling icon!
I ttl missed a part of what you left on my blog, cos it didnt automatically go onto the next line with no spaces and it got cut off ....so, what the hell were you on about? lol. And the "You have a crush?" thing? Huh?
I'm bored, bored, bored, bored, bored...well you get the general gist don't you?
All my friends have piked again but this time, fuck it I'm going out, even though I have to walk half an hour to a bloody station, I'm going out tonight. FUCK IT.
Oh yeah The third season of BSG has a fantastic cliff hanger. Love it, Been rereading Carpe Jugulam and... Read More
So very, very true about both people being awful liars and the lies catching up to you. Not to mention, if you're going to lie at least be more creative about it. I'm more willing to forgive a lie if it's a good story. And why do so many people need affirmation of their hotness/coolness/whatever around here anyway? It's like without validation they don't exist. What they don't realize is that validation does not now, nor will it ever, mean anything. Either you find meaning in yourself by yourself or you don't find it at all. Affirmation, validation, and meaning found solely by the praise of others is both false and fleeting. Also, it's rather sad and pathetic. But that's possibly me being judgmental again.
You do have a point about the acquaintance/stranger versus friend factor. Sadly, there are certain acquaintances who are rather good friends with actual friends of mine so that puts them sort of in the friend category by proxy. The consequences are the same so they end up in the same grouping....
And now my kitten is demanding my attention and moreso I think my cuddling so off to bed with me it is! 'Night doll.
Long time, no update.
Anyway admitted on line I found someone cute, unfortunately it happened to be in a place where a couple of people knew who I was talking about, and that certain someone decided to tell her (well there goes my 1% chance ).
Anyway things
Had the best sashumi I've ever eaten at Shira Nui (which... Read More
I pretty much just don't really check at this point unless I'm REALLY bored and too lazy to go wander. Which is pretty damn lazy. Mostly right now I pop on, check comments and my back and forth messages with one of my friends here and then go read.
*purr* You're such a tease.
I'm generally too hesitant to add anyone around here since so much of the site is super cliquey but I was here thinking "Hello, acquiring adorable and often funny guys is required" and thus the request was sent. I'm far more amusing face to face but spades more witty in text, go figure.
I didnt even bother to go to the second.

How you been keeping? Behaving yourself I hope!
