The pub itself is actually kinda nice. It's just the location within a mall that freaks me out. And yeah, I'm a snob.

aw crap. serves me right for not having an internet connection for a month - I live right next to Hyde Park (which looks to me like where you were..)

anyway looks like fun. ravens suck. how's it going? I have innernet now, I hear you can get it on computers these days.

thanks one more image and i'm done.
yeah christmas, i have mixed feels about thay holiday.

I just view it more or less the same way I view Valentines in that how good it is and in what way is entirely up to each individual person.

But specifically, the way I view Christmas is the way I buy gifts. I decide what I want for people before ever leaving the house to buy anything. Anytime I don't follow this rule is guaranteed to have me buy something for the sake of buying something, and those gifts almost always suck.

Despite it being socially expected to buy gifts, I always try to get things that the person will remember, that they would've always liked to buy themselves - like something they just never wanted to spoil themselves with or maybe even never realized they wanted (like last year where I bought Cosby tickets for my dad, someone who has listened to Cosby since he was a kid but never even considered seeing him live - and he loved it).

Anyway, it's to each their own, but I find that if you can change the reason why you're buying the gift to something beyond "just because its Christmas" then it usually ends up being something a lot more important.

Work things can be really tricky. On one hand it can be a little too highschool. Holding hands at lunch and waiting for the school bell...

But then you've got to ask yourself, if you're not going to meet someone at work, where do you meet them? A bar? So with work at least you have something in common...

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Toby says thanks, by the way. And so do I.

Thanks

I will admit that in my most desperate hours I also considered signing up for one of those dating websites, but one quick look and I was reminded of all the reasons that would be a very bad idea. I've had friends sign-up for them, and all they met were socially enept losers.

You're perfect match won't fit all the right check-boxes. They won't be profiled to within an inch of completely-unromantic.

"You like Chinese food and going to the beach? So do I!"

No shit, we ticked the same box. Who knew

The short answer is I really don't know. Good things come from differences, and cliches are generally cliches for a reason.

Have you tired using tubigrip underneath the tape?
I have allergies to everything (dishwashing detergent to soap to latex) Maybe supporting your ankles with tubigrip proir to strapping might help a little?

I used to do that back in the day when I played netball....

Then again, it might not work for you. Just a suggestion!

Rashes suck.

Especially with your bald ankles, very feminine indeed.

You have far more patience and determination than I, but then I've totally fallen out of what little fitness and exercise routine I had and so am completely undoing the good I once did.

But very nice ankles. A hit at the beach no doubt.

Oh, so do I. So do I.

They know that I'm not so I'm safe.

yes...yes he was.

we will be consuming large quantities of beer, and screaming rather loudly, come june/july next year

You STOLE some poor guys beer??? How can you live with yourself??

On another unrelated note, I must confess, I ate the cheese!

huzzah for thinkin'n'stuff!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like me when I played floor hockey. I haven't played in about a year, and would've started this week except the guy that runs the league is incompetant so no hockey until who knows when.

Good luck with hockey...

Well seeing as your moving into the city head to Northbridge and get a super cheap feed at the Hare Krishna restaurant.. Mmmmm tasty tasty stuff indeed!

I wish we could play Gunners at work. I think it would make things far more interesting.

Nice pickup! Pity no DVD. I found it here at an alt. record store. Check them, you might get lucky...

If I find the cuntwringers who stole the boards, consider yourself in on the avenging party. And it will be a PAR-TAY!
