Dumbfounded.

I just remembered this rather strange and funny thing that I forgot to put in my previous post, that I had every intention of doing..
You see I was flicking through the channels last week and I on the Danish channel they had this like game show/money grabbing show thing.. I don't really know what to call it.. but it was one of those shows where you call up and usually answer a question or solve a puzzle and win money for your efforts.. they have many of them on the channels here.
Anyways so as I flick onto the Danish channel.. I see a BABY.. yes a human baby.. suspended over little packets of candy and money.. it is a large area.. and then in the corner of the screen there is the 2,4,5,6,8 keys of a telephone.. set out as they would be on the phone.. and then you have the caller talking to the host and then the button pressing begins.. and this person is pressing the buttons to make the baby move and then they press 5 to go down down down so that the baby can grab stuffs. The baby of course grabbed the colourful packets of candy instead of the money but I was left looking at the screen going WTF?? o_O Did I really just see that happen?
I mean seriously.. why would anyone suspend a baby in the air for a freaken silly little game show! Just crazy. Dumbfounded.

Weekends.

Weekends seem to go by way too quickly.. it seems that they come and then they go all in the blink of an eye! Totally not cool.. but in saying that I did have a pretty good weekend.. the weather wasn't as nice as during the week but it was still good.. the odd spot of rain but nothing to complain about. It was nice enough to be able to enjoy a BBQ on Saturday.. I just love BBQ! I only wish I was better with the tongs! and I totally just wrote thongs then.. now that would be a little worrying.. BBQ-ing with thongs! But anyways.. the foodage was good goood gooood! I look forward to having BBQ's on a regular basis.. mmm just the thought of it makes my mouth water!! We had some damn good foodage thats for sure.

That pretty much sums up the saturday, or well before the BBQ we went and did foodage shopping and had a little looksie around town.. nothing exciting.. so the highlight really was the BBQ! Oh actually Emma and I raced Poo! in Mario Kart and wow does she SUCK! I thought I was bad.. she makes me look like a total pro! and I am so far from it! so Poo! you need to get some serious practice in kiddo!! coz you was Terrible!! so much for kicking our butts!! hahaha

Come Sunday.. we didn't do too much and then all of a sudden it was go go go and we were off to go shopping to buy stuffs.. no exciting stuffs for Jo though.. but then I wasn't really in the mood to be looking for stuffs for me.. I did find this one pair of real spunk shoes but sadly they were uncomfortable to all shyte! It made me feel like I was walking on the outside edge of my foot.. and that is just WRONG! And that is about as exciting as my Sunday gets.

Now lets move onto a couple of the little funny things that I saw over the weekend that make me giggle a little..
-_- First off while on a morning walk with the little Nemo, Emma and I saw this cute little squirrel running along the footpath and then I guess this persons backyard looked rather appealing coz it opted to jump/squeeze on through the white picket fence.. it kinda stopped 3/4 of the way through and had one leg, ass and tail hanging out for about 30seconds before pulling itself through fully. It was so funny and So cute! I just wanted to take it on home! but there is no way that I could have caught it and it would be mean to do such a thing!
-_- Then there was Nemo trying to walk up this steep concrete incline.. instead of taking the stairs which would of been much easier for him.. he opted to go beside the stairs and try and walk up and while walking up he was slipping backwards.. it was HIGHLY amusing! and not once did he decide to take one little step to the left and walk on the stairs.. ahh bless him! lol Nemo often does things that amuse me.. and piss me off too! Such is life.

Coffee...

Oopps.. we did it again! We forgot to turn the alarm off before leaving the house because once again we were up earlier than expected. I guess this time it is payback for all the hammering that they do at all odd hours. Ahhh just a little more payback I guess! Now if only I could do it to the real asshole wankers who deserve nothing good to happen to them! I really hate my neighbours! Not all of them however.. the little old lady below us is nice.

Once again it is a beautiful day.. I am rather enjoying all this nice weather, it is just a shame that I can't really do anything more with it. Once again Emma went with me for the morning walk.. which makes it so much more enjoyable, however on the stretch which she wasn't on coz.. well she was on the train on the way to work.. anyways Nemo and I were walking and on the home stretch when swipey cat struck! I have mentioned this cat before, he hides under bushes and cars and takes a swipe at you as you walk past.. and this time he got Nemo's paw and gave him a heck of a fright and he jumped and did this little yelp.. which is probably what I would of sounded like if I was a dog. It was so very funny that I very nearly peed in my pants and the next 10mins to walk home was so hard! But thankfully I managed to make it home with no leakage! *jumps for joy!*

About swipey cat... Emma and I discovered the other day that swipey cat was in fact a different cat to sitty cat. There is this cat who sits on a porch and is ginger and Emma and I have wondered for a fair few months now if he is swipey cat, because we had never seen another ginger cat in the parts then we figured that it was the same cat... but then we were walking in the glorious sun and we saw sitty cat.. who wasn't actually sitting at the time and then just after we passed him.. we saw swipey cat running across the road.. probably to take cover and wait for some poor unsuspecting soul to swipe at.. like Nemo!

Nothing exciting happened on the lunchtime pee pee walk.. which was rather sad.. it was like everyone had run and hit as soon as they knew I was coming out with Nemo. Nothing fun was to be seen. Nothing at all was to be seen actually. Maybe aliens have invaded? Anyways its so nice out there it doesn't bother me all that much.. actually I did see one thing that I thought was strange.. the peoples who clean the stairwells for the buildings were out in full force and there was this one lady who was standing at the door and smoking while the others were cleaning and I was left thinking WTF? Lets just clean the place and leave it smelling like smoke! *shakes head*

Oh and has anyone else ever noticed how coffee with milk is a different colour to coffee with milk and sugar? or is that just me? or is that just this pot of coffee?
hmm I wonder....

Nippy Nemo!

Nemo finally got to go for his swim and boy did he have some fun! It was a beautiful day and it was so nice to get out of the house and do something out of the ordinary. It was a warmish day.. around 14degrees I think it was and by the time we got to the waterhole we were hot and stuffed.. it was about a 90minute walk I do believe.. but it was well worth it to see Nemo all happy and jumping around in the water, splashing, barking and chasing sticks.. when he first went in and out he went to come back and there wasn't a stick so he just latched onto the rope that we had him on.. it was ever so cute! It was almost like he wasn't able to come back in if he didn't have something in his gobhole as it happened a couple of times. It was a heck of a lot of fun anyways.. but I need to buy some gloves coz I got granny fingers from handling the wet rope. Which is NOT cool! Here are a few pics for you to have a gander at...
Click the links for the others... YaY! Swim Time!, Rope!, ♪♪Well, shake it up baby, now!♪♪, Stick! and lastly I just had to do this one coz it its so very funny.. as he isn't actually nipping my knee! Nippy Nemo!

After the swim, Emma's mum came and picked us up and Emma was all happy about getting to go for a ride in the car and then we get home and Nemo is no longer happy coz in the bath he does go. But once he was al done he was all nice smelling.. it was great! Nemo then went back to being the little sad sack and I told him he had no right.. which made Emma laugh. We watched the movie '27 Dresses' and it was rather funny.. I rather enjoyed it.. Emma might have enjoyed it more if she hadn't been playing games on the computer while it was playing. I think the funniest line ever would have to be this one..
Jane: I feel like I just found out my favorite love song was written about a sandwich.
It made me laugh a fair bit. All in all I thought it was a good movie and think everyone should see it. Ahh I just love kicking back and watching flicks. Fun Fun FUN!

Sunday Emma started to feel a bit sickly.. the dreaded sore throat and all that so we opted to try and take it easy as much as we could. Emma was relaxing in the bath when her mum calls and asks why aren't we around there to help her finish off the meringue, vanilla cream stuff and berry concoction.. so we quickly headed off around there and it was another beautiful day. We even got to wear our sunnies! Yes it was THAT nice! Sunday was pretty much a day of nothing and sunshine. Perfect really.

It is yet another beautiful day today (YaY! Summer is coming!!) and this morning Emma actually came with me on the morning walk.. which is a nice treat. This week Emma is starting work later than usual so we are getting up a little later than usual, except this morning we both woke up before the alarm so we got up and got ready and off we toddled together on a little walk. It said that it was 8degrees but I think it lied! but in saying that it was still nice. Then I arrive home after leaving Emma to catch her train to hear the alarm going off that Emma had forgotten to turn off coz well I guess she didn't think about it coz we left the house before it actually went off. Sorry neighbours!! but in saying that.. Paysback's a bitch! LOL That will teach them for all those nights where we have had to listen to them sing karaoke!
Torture to my ears!!

Undies!

RAWR! Ok so I go down to do my washing and today it is yet another freaken thing to get up my goat! This time instead of me just having to touch somebody else fucking lint that has been left in the dryer.. I am also going to fucking have to touch somebody else washing that has been left in the dryer! totally not cool! and its UNDIES! and yes I know they are washed but that is still really freaken gross! and they are white undies with skiddies!! yes even though they are washed. I am so NOT impressed. How freaken hard is it to do washing and take it with you? I so wish we had a place to put our own washer set.
*sigh* I am really starting to hate washing day.

Today is a nice day so I am going to try and not let it get to me too much.. and it is Friday! & Friday's are great.. coz its the weekend and then one can do fun stuff.. like take Nemo swimming! Its clear skies tomorrow so that is the plan.. and I think Nemo is in need of some FUN as he is so up and down this week.. in more ways than one.. up and down in the normal way of moddiness and also in the up and down of falliness! lol

Last night Emma and I were sitting on the couch with little Nemo and his ass was pretty close to the edge of the couch and so Emma goes to me.. "He is going to fall off there if he isn't careful" or well something to that effect anyways.. it was last night and I no remember so well. Anyways so just as she finished saying it he decides its that time where he needs to scratch and that of course put him just over the edge of no return, I look at him and he has this look of shear terror in his eyes as he is trying so VERY hard to stop himself from actually falling. Emma then came to the rescue and grabbed him before he actually fell off.. but I just couldn't get the image of his face and eyes out of my head and laughed so hard that I cried. I know I know I shouldn't laugh and maybe I wouldn't have laughed so hard if he had of actually fallen but Emma was a superhero and saved him. *gives Emma a pat on the back, a cape and some undies to wear on the outside of her pants!*

Three's a...

...DISASTER!

So Nemo and I are oout on his lunch time pee pee walkies.. minding our own business but looking around and taking in the surrounding crazies. There is this one woman who is walking so fast.. and its not a comfortable fast.. it was a really awkward fast and it looked like she was gonna hurt herself.. but thats not the disaster that I am gonna be talking about.. we manage to get past her.. safely.. we don't actually come close to being hurt at all during this.. but if we were then it would of been from the fast walking woman. Anyways moving right along from her and onto the disaster.. we are near the hospital.. walking, walking, Nemo sniffing, sniffing, walking, walking and then there is all this noise coming from behind us.. and me being curious.. coz really one should be curious about anything and everything.. ok back to the story at hand..

The noise was a bunch of kids on a bike.. yes you read correctly there were a bunch of kids on a single bike.. by bunch I mean 3.. 3 girls on a bike trying to ride off into the sunset.. ok so there was no sunset but they were trying to ride off.. instead they all came a tumbling down when the girl who was doing all the peddle and steering work couldn't keep her speed up and hit the curb. I had to laugh a little. So there they all are.. on the ground laughing and complaining that they are hurt.. but obviously not hurt enough to all jump back on and try again. Now that was just as funny to watch them all pile back onto the bike and try again.. the peddler got on first and steadied the bike and the one who sits on the seat got on and got comfy while the one who was going to be sitting on the back.. took hold of the back tray.. I don't really know what to call it.. and anyways she gave a little push to help the peddler get things going before jumping on the back and just as she did that the peddler couldn't keep control once again and they crashed into the curb and fell over again.. the one of the back managed to jump off in the nick of time however but the one who was on the seat really had no chance of anything and ended up hurting herself.. next thing I hear are cries and I squint my eyes and look over and there she is holding her knee.. I guess she scraped it or whatever.. I shook my head and continued on my merry way.

Just as I am about to turn the corner and get onto the home stretch I hear the noisy girls again and it seems they had managed to get into the flow of things and off they rode.. I can just imagine that they would of found several more curbs and came a crashing down. It really was a rather interesting sight and you have to wonder if it would of been faster walking.. I think walking would have been less work also.. but hey kids will be kids.. and by kids I mean teenagers.
Well thats all I got.. and now its raining.

Never a dull moment!

Where do I start? Hmm lets see.. maybe with the fact that Nemo very kindly decided that it was about time that he fart-me-in-the-face! Yes that is right.. this morning Nemo very kindly farted me in the face.. and it wasn't even a silent one.. it was a loudish one and it stunk so very badly. If you are wondering what my face was doing near his ass in the first place.. let me tell you it was coz I was being nice and giving him cuddles on the couch.. you see we have a corner couch and Nemo has the shorter spot all to himself and I was laying on the longer spot watching tele and Nemo was curled up at where my head is.. which he often likes to do. So there we are cute as buttons in the early morning when all of a sudden I hear the pppp coming from little Nemo's ass and then within seconds the stench that was nose hair burning hit my nose and then Nemo sniffed his ass and jumped off the couch and went to his room. Yes it was that bad that even Nemo ran for the hills! Ok maybe not the hills but you get my drift. So very gross. No more cuddles for him today!

Moving onto a little more about Nemo.. yesterday after work Emma was playing.. you guessed it... Mario Kart! and she is really getting into the game and Nemo is sitting just under her and then you hear this TWHACK! as Emma hits Nemo right on the noggin as she was trying to do a jump or a wheelie.. I am not sure what she was doing as I wasn't paying that much attention.. so Nemo gets twhacked and doesnät really care at all as he was too busy watching me eat foodage.. which I didn't share with him so maybe the fart in the face this morning was payback?
Hmmm, never a dull moment with Nems!

Lets move on a little to Mario Kart and I just want it to be known that I hate and I mean HATE Rainbow Road with a passion!! If I never had to do that race again for as long as I live them I would be happy.. but sadly I do have to do it so that I can unlock stuff. I really hate it though. Really-Hate-It! But other than that I am still enjoying it.. even though it is the only thing that Emma wants to do when she gets home from work!! I just wish I could race more peoples! Coz that is always a bit more fun don't ya thinko? Anyways, now its time for breaky..

Sleepy Nemo

Nemo has been a little on t he sleepy side lately.. I guess old age is really kicking in. Yesterday I managed to get ready to go out.. shoes and jacket and grab keys and his chain all the while calling out to him and he wouldn't come.. so I decided to go looking for him and hello there he was sleeping under the bed in the office.. then I touched him to wake him up and it startled him a little and he was about to start growling and carrying on and then she saw his chain and got all excited about going for a walk.
O happy days!


Then this morning when I went to let him out of the office he didn't budge so I just left him and didn't go and wake him up.. didn't see the point of upsetting him first thing this morning.. that usually happens at breakfast time! lol anyways a few minutes after I had opened the door and was standing talking to Emma, he decided to wake up and join us.. very casually.. and then he whacked his ass on the bathroom bin.. which was funny.

Then after his walk this morning.. he is usually all bouncy and wants to play for like a whole 5mins but this morning he was not in the mood to play and he came in.. I dried off his paws and he ran off to bed. It was sleep time. & sleep is what he did until it was breakfast.. not once did he get up or anything.. then he growled and ate breakfast and is now back in bed. Sleeping.

Vista. Lets talk about vista. So we have had the new computer for a few weeks and I am watching the space on my hard drive swindle away even though I am deleting this so I decide to moan to Emma about it and she mentions something about the system restore feature so I go and have a little looskie around online and see whats being said about things.. and low and behold many people are annoyed with how stupid it works.. you have to do a disk clean up and then clean up the system restore in the more options section. I did this and it gave me back 80GB. Now to me that is just stupid. If it creates a new restore point then it should automatically delete the previous one instead of just using more and more of your space. Stupid. There are many stupid things about vista but aero looks pretty so thats the main thing. Maybe vista was designed after a blond... looks pretty but completely stupid. LOL ok maybe I shouldn't be so harsh but damn that was good.. it made me laugh.. and I guess thats the main thing coz who else is gonna make me laugh? *smile*

Another beautiful day today.. the sun is shining.. its a toasty warm 5.4degrees! LOL It is meant to start raining tonight though and tomorrow.. but thats ok.. I don't mind rain on the week days.. its the weekends that I want it to be fine and dandy so that we can go and do fun things. Speaking of fun things.. I saw this little clip of Tegan yesterday and it made me laugh so much.. Tegan is so funny! If you wanna check it out yourself then just click here! and that is all. Over and out for today.. time to go and play a little Mario Kart me thinks!

#23

Ok so here we go.. first up some background..
The way the laundry system used to work was that you wrote your name down in a slot to book times so that you can do your laundry.. which comes in handy when you get an unclean washer.. you then know who to blame but alas that system wasn't working for the owners so they decided to spend some money and have a board made up and give everyone their own lock and key.. which now means you can only book one space at a time.. which totally screws me up for the week that I need two spots to deal with sheets etc and you have no idea who was in the spot before you unless you go and memorise the board everyday.. as usual the washer is gross and most of the time people don't clean the lint out of the dryer so I then have to touch other peoples lint.. so gross. The new system sucks but I have said that before.

But these things are not the nature of this ramble.. the nature of this ramble is a newcomer who has decided for the past few weeks that they are going to take the spot directly after mine no matter where I put my time up.. I am as regular as clockwork and every 3rd week I need 2 spots.. well last week once again lock #23 was there directly after me.. which totally screwed me up so when I finished my 7-10am time slot I then picked the 1-5 time slot to be able to finish everything off.. so at 12pm I decide just to check if the person had actually used the room.. and low and behold no they had not.. which pissed me off coz it would of meant that I could of had all my washing over and done with in one clean swoop instead of having to have a 3 hour break and fuck around for the day.. anyways I left it be and took Nemo for his walk and then when I returned it was about 12:40 and only 20mins left of the 10-1 time slot and the key was there and there would of been no way that the person would of had time to do anything so I grabbed the key to get stuck into my washing again.. and that is when I noticed that they had once again put there freaken little lock in the time slot AFTER mine!! Which pissed me off and made me even more paranoid.. so when my time had finished for the day I changed my time to Monday mainly to check to see if that blasted #23 would do it again as Monday is not a day I would usually pick and sure enough.. yesterday morning when I go and check there is #23 parked right in the slot after the one I had done so this time I moved it to a time slot on my usual Friday and picked the 10-1 which already had the spots after taken by other peoples. I really feel like writing a note to #23 and telling them where to effing go but I have no idea who they are.. as that number isn't on the list of names showing who is what number. I really don't like feeling like I am being fucked with and that is exactly what it feels like.. its been going on for weeks.. WEEKS gawd dang it! I hope whoever it is stops soon coz I think it might send me over the freaken adge.. which will mean that Emma will tan my ass coz I shouldn't let these things get to me.. but I just can't help it!

Birds!

Ok well I still suck at Mario Kart and I manage to blow myself up a lot! and Emma is still much better.. but thats ok coz I still managed to unlock stuff that she didn't unlock and that so ROCKS! hahaha
Emma is currently playing online with one of her mates who also has a Wii and Mario Kart game.. which is pretty cool coz then you don't get split screens coz you aint using the same screen! Nifty! So Poo! you have to get Mario Kart and then we can play too! Only downfall is you don't get all the extra cars you normally would.. but thats ok I guess.. you get to play against friends all over the world and that is fun!

I have to say I think the funniest thing ever on Mario Kart is when you get hit with the lightening and it makes you go small and the music changes as if it is made by something so small and your vehicle sounds like a mozzy or bee or something of the sort.. I find it amusing anyways.

Today is a beaut day.. pretty typical really considering we wanted it to be nice yesterday and it wasn't and so today to just rub it right in it is fine and dandy.. we headed off early this morning to walk Nemo and Emma took a few nice pics.. Nemo was a pain in the ass to walk as he usually is these days and Emma took way too long at times taking pics.. but she did get to see one of her favourite birds.. which is always nice when you get to see something you like.. I however don't often get to see things that I like.. maybe that is coz I don't like enough things! lol

Ok so I mentioned birds yesterday and birds today.. so I thought I might tell you a little story about these birds who thought they owned the area that I had walk past everyday going to and from work.. anyways so this one day I am walking along to work and I see these little birds running around on this lawn area and I think "aww cute I wonder where their mummy is" and then WHAM!! out of nowhere this big bird comes flying at me all mad like I am going to eat its chicks! I get to work and tell people about it and the end of the day comes and I dread having to walk past them again.. and rightly so coz when I was walking back to the bus stop the same thing happened.. or well minus the part where I think aww cute.. I try to just walk by as quick as possible but sadly that wasn't fast enough and the bird tried to attack me again. It didn't connect at all which is lucky coz I don't think I would have come out so well. The next day I come prepared.. and bring BREAD! thinking this might just distract them enough for me to get past without having to run for my life.. but no.. this did not happen.. it just seemed to make them worse.. this went on for a good week before the mummy took the chicks away but they were still hanging around and I did see them from time to time. It was highly amusing at the time too.. birds really are interesting little creatures!

Mario Kart!

Bloody rain! Just because I decided yesterday that Emma and I would take a picnic lunch and head off to the waterhole so that Nemo could go for a little dip.. I looked at the forecast and it said fine with no mention of rain at all.. and this morning.. RAIN! Not Cool!

But some much more funkier news.. Emma and I picked up a new game for the Nintendo Wii... *drum role* Mario Kart! and we got a couple of steering wheels to make the fun even more FUN! It hurts my thumb a little the way you hold it but that would probably be coz I am odd.. so last night Emma and I raced a little and had a few drinks.. I know.. I know... drinking and driving is not cool.. but no-one got hurt.. promise! or well I did.. my thumb.. but that was all.. Emma played much longer than me.. coz I get bored easily of games and plus I suck.. or well I am good but I want to be better right away! This morning I played a little more but sadly I didn't unlock anything extra due to really sucking and not winning everything.. I will unlock it all eventually.. it is a heck of a lot of fun though.. doing the two player is fun aswell but I don't much like the whole split screen thing.. that is something I find ever so annoying.. maybe we should get a bigger television!! lol Mario Kart ROCKS!

I saw 2 pigeons fighting this morning while I was out walking Nemo.. I tried to get it on film but by the time I got my phone out and set it to record the little buggers had stopped fighting and one flew off.. I guess it was a good thing I stopped coz maybe one would of killed the other but I do wonder what they were fighting over and they make a rather loud thwacking sound.. it was a little bit interesting though. Birds are interesting creatures thats for sure.

Pet Peeve!

Don't you just hate it when you wake up feeling like you haven't slept at all? That is exactly how I feel this morning.. I feel like I have stayed up all night doing bullshit things to fill in the time.. when in fact I slept for most of the night.. yes I woke up several times and had a little trouble going back to sleep.. mind you I did have some rather disturbing dreams. I don't often remember my dreams but I go through stages.. sometimes I even have dreams that continue on from the night before.. I find those a little freaky.. just like I find the ones that you have over and over and over again freaky. So anyways this morning I feel like shit and just want to go to sleep.. but if I lay my head down I just know I wont actually fall asleep.. maybe I will be lucky enough to get an afternoon nap.. maybe I should chuck Finding Nemo on.. that always makes me nod off.. probably coz I have seen it sooo many times.. but hey its a great movie!

I like movies.. I like movies a lot! Thats the one thing I mainly miss about Australia.. every weekend Emma and I (and sometimes Amy) would wander on down to knox/southland/jam factory and watch a flick.. sometimes 2.. but sadly here going to the movies is less desirable and they don't have ChocTops!! Emma reminded me the other night that we are yet to see Horton Hears a Who.. hopefully it will be on DVD soon so that we can see it.. coz I don't want to go into Malmö.. coz well I always and I mean ALWAYS end up walking out all pissed off coz the whole experience was crapola.. so I would rather just not go there and it appears people just don't know how to shut the heckles up in a movie. Pet peeve.

I must admit I have many pet peeves.. I can't help it.. I guess I am a high strung person who has had to put up with a lot of bullshit so now I just don't wanna and I don't see why I should. I think rude people are my biggest peeve.. I have rambled on about rude people many many times so those who know me will already know this.. I learnt a lot about rude people when I worked on the phones at an appliance repair place.. to this day I am still shocked at how people think they have the right to speak to someone who they want something from.. those people met their match with me thats for sure.. here wait an extra day or 2 coz you were an asshole. I must admit I do miss that job.. as much as at times I would get so pissed off I was good at what I did.. mind you it got to the point it was someone I worked with rather than the actual job that made me want to leave.. she was a pet peeve to say the least.

Weed them Out!

Websites. Seriously how hard is it to design a site that is easy to navigate, is easy on the eye and supplies you with the right information?? It appears that there are way too many sites outtherethat lack in not just one but all three of the things I just mentioned. You are probablywonderingwhy I am even bringing this up.. well you see I had to help my friend Poo! out.. or well I didn't HAVE to but I can be nice sometimes and I decided I would.. I figured how hard could it be to find some accommodation in Melbourne for a good price, that wasn't a dump. After having to weed out many completely useless sites I then had to go through site after site that wouldn't actually give you the prices until you contacted them.. I understand that they probably do this to try and get you to contact them so that they can then try and win you over and actually make the booking.. but what about those people out there who don't have time to be contacting everyone or wanting to wait to get an email response? Just redorkyouless! It just annoyed me so very much and makes me want to never use the internet to try and find anything.. one thing that annoyed the shyte outta me was that I search for Melbourne and it gives me a place in Perth... ummm not even close buddy! so yeah websites.. there are just too many completely useless ones out there and someone really needs to weed them out! WEED THEM OUT!! and teach people to design decent sites. and less porn.

I could go on and on about shitty websites but really what is the point.. it just falls on deaf ears and more and more shitty sites just sprout up anyways... so moving along to what I nearly did this morning.. luckily Emma was on the ball so it didn't end up that I locked myself out! Yes thats right.. I walked out the door without the trusty keys to be able to let myself back in! but just as Emma was about to close the door she asked me if I had the keys.. to which I then felt my pockets and said.. noooo.. so good ole Emma went in and grabbed them.. I would be so screwed without her.

Ahh lets see.. what else is there to babble on about.. not a heck of a lot. Nemo is a pain to walk these days.. altho he was rather cute today so it makes up for the annoying walks. The weather wasn't too bad.. so I guess rain really is upon us. I would like it to be nice this weekend.. so with that being said it is probably going to be shyte. My windows need cleaning.. any takers?

LOL ok so Poo! just said to me that she was going to make an account so that she could leave me comments.. I guess not realising that you don't actually need to have an account to be able to leave me comments.. it is open to all.. I don't like to make people feel left out coz like I said.. I can be nice sometimes.. but Poo! is going to be Poo! and is going to get an account anyways.. so here is the linkage to check hers out right here! Hopefully she will actually use it and I can have a little light entertainment from it.

Raw Egg!

Once upon a time there was a girl who needed a little something else after having her dinner. She stood in the kitchen while her girlfriend looked in the fridge and suggested little things to nibble on. After several suggested things.. the girlfriend looks in the top tray and goes "Egg?" in which this reply came "Umm that egg is RAW" and then the girlfriend laughed and laughed and pulled out a chocolate creme egg and said "I meant this egg!" They both continued to laugh.. so hard infact that there were snorts heard. In the end there was no eating of the choclate creme egg.. nor anything else for that matter.. until about an hour later when the girlfriend decided that it was time to break out a kexchoklad!... mmmm tasty! The End!

Perfect Hideout

My first week of April lost to being ill. It was not a happy camper of a time but I am nearly all betterer apart from an icky cough and for some reason whenever I go to type cough I actually type couch.. crazy. So yeah April got off to a kicker indeed and its good to be back with my bearings intact.. so a smidge there I thought I was gonna cough them out! Especially when I would cough so hard and much that it made me dizzy.. that is not a feeling I like.

So my week of sickness didn't really leave me much to report.. I got sick, Emma looked after Nemo.. she even took him to work for a day, which made him and everyone around him happy.. the following day he seemed sad.. ahh its just such a hard life being Nemo! Umm, went to the doc.. and that was an experience and a half and it sure doesn't restore my faith in doctors. Made a wicked yummy pumpkin soup.. just LOVE the stuffs! So now I have a little supply in the freezer! YaY!

The weather has cleaned up a bit.. altho it is still looking grey.. but hey I have barely been outside in a week so any weather would be fine with me. I wanted to go for a picnic breakfast (which I had decided to do before I actually got sick) last Saturday morning but I still wasn't well enough so hopefully.. weather and health permitting we will be able to do it this Saturday.

Emma's mum yesterday dropped off a waffle maker and the stuffs to make waffles! So as you can guess we just had to try it out and we had waffles for dinner! oo yeah! so now we just have to find the WeightWatcher recipe for waffles.. coz that made a real nice batter and I liked them alot! Mmm waffles.. who doesn't love em! Now I shall never miss out on having waffles on waffleday!

Ummm lets see what else is there... I still find the keyboard ever so annoying and have recently discovered that my cordless mouse doesn't work coz the transmitter is too far away so I now have to try and find the usb extension... ahh the joys of this.. coz the mouse that came with the computer is REALLY uncomfy and makes my wrist hurt after like 10mins of straight use so I can't play games.. total sadness! but on some good news for games.. I can play scrabble! wooohoooo so now I can play that until my heart is content.. once I get a decent mouse that is. Oh AND Emma went and pre-ordered Mario Kart for the Wii and you get little steering wheels!! ooo so very exciting! Mario Kart rocks!

I watched a funny movie yesterday... 'Perfect Hideout' It was indeed one of the funnier movies I have seen.. some of the lines were just classic.. the espresso machine scene was pretty classic indeed..

Nick: [tying Victor to the chair] What do I need to see?
[Celia looks at Nick with a WTF look on her face]
Nick: When this guy was coming down the stairs, you said there was something I needed to see, you were screaming it through the whole house
Celia: oh the espresso machine
[Nick walks over to Celia]
Nick: Honey, you made all that racket for that?
Cleia: Yeah, so What? We have a problem here Nick!
[Nick sees the espresso machine]
Nick: oh wow that is pretty cool actually [walks over to the espresso machine]
Nick: [turns and points gun at Victor tied in chair] Hey ahh, make us a decent coffee man.

lol so funny! I guess you really have to see it to get the full humour of it all.. so with that said peoples... go and see it! and on that note I think I will end this post here.. after all I really don't have much more to say. Peace out.
