hey, next door neighbour!

stop watering your goddamn plants! IT JUST RAINED! we are in a ten year drought so put the fucking hose away RIGHT NOW BEFORE I REPORT YOU.

i had a meeting today at work for about an hour to discuss our new knowledge management system that we have. i don't know why, but i told the story about the people that had hacked into the epilepsy foundation website and caused people to have seizures. then i laughed. and then there was silence. with a few murmurs of how horrible that must have been.

wrong crowd!

i've taken on a new part time role at work. the days are zipping by, i have a lot of shit on my desk and a lot of irritating questions, but i'm finally using my brain again. it feels fucking fantastic. although, it also feels a little obscene getting so much enjoyment out of work now because i've hated it for such a long time. i have no idea how long this will last, but i'm not staring at the clock all day, and i don't hate myself as much for staying there.

happy days!

i went to a new physio yesterday for my back. he poked my abs (okay, my gut) and told me i had a lot of work to do! a little humiliating, but understandable. he said my treatment so far had been too passive and we were going to start an aggressive program to build up my strength. i'm a little nervous, but i think that's generally good, i tend to respond better to someone that has authority rather than attempting to be my friend. i don't know what that says about me.

this cracks me up; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06ZsftPImew

i'm changing teams at work and being put back with a girl that i have had several ugly run ins with when we were in the same team several years ago. she's a worthless, psychotic bigot and i can't fucking stand her. goddamnit.

i need a new job. a well paying job. please? anyone?

my back hurts. fuck getting old!

ohhhh, that's right. i fucking HATE my job.

ok, so. we're leaving tonight. SAAAAAD.

anna & i hated canada. we had a series of shitty things happen to us between new york and niagara, then toronto to vancouver. plus, everything was more expensive and there was far less available. so we changed our flight to LA and came here a day earlier.

i didn't get a pair of designer shoes. i found a pair - gorgeous black manolo's with a super cute red flower on them - but they were $750 and i had expected the canadian shopping to be WAY BETTER, so i didn't want to blow that much if there was much more shopping in canada to be done. which there WASN'T, but whatever.

fucking canada! i am fucking bitter, let me tell you.

anyway. i'm excited to see scott when we go home, but everything else kind of sucks.

bye!

said goodbye to scizz this morning. sad. it's only for 3 weeks, not even close to the times when we were saying goodbye for an unknown number of months. still... i miss him. i even miss "AAHHHH QUIT!"

anyway. now i'm in new york. i love the city so far. it's exciting. our apartment is nice and big, and we're across the road from a place that does laundry and delivers it folded to our door. fucking awesome! i almost want to move here for that alone.

we went to time square today. they had a hersheys store oppositee an m&m world. brilliant.

no more work until june. fuck yeeeeeeah.

we leave on saturday. my clothes are all over the place, none actually in my suitcase. i have made a list, but it's not quite coming together. scott has pretty much packed however. i wish i were that organised.

i have a crazy day today, which includes driving all over melbourne and taking scott to work in horrifying traffic. but i don't have to go to work. NO WORK. i am fucking giddy!

and i am going to shoppppppppp until my brain explodes when i hit the US.
