    Did I just see or hear something…


    2010 - 05.21

    Pretty Good day. And damn how does someone catch me by surprise like that?

    Over Friday already…


    2010 - 04.30

    *sigh* I’m glad it’s Friday, I’m a bit tired of the Political Machinations going on at work lately. Looking forward to just getting out of the place tonight. Going to need some unwinding tonight…

    Millstones…


    2010 - 04.22

    A tough week at work exacerbated by family factors at other times! Furbag has been equally tough on me this week for no apparent reason. However work’s done for the week, off until Tuesday. Looking forward to something different.

    My Runes have been hopeful this week, but none boding fruition in the short term. I’m still bouncing like a bearing in a pinball machine!

    A day to reflect…


    2010 - 04.16

    Over today I’ve spent several hours chatting to different people about life and living. I’ve remembered how lucky I am to be alive AND happy. Obviously happiness is still a commodity in short supply.

    I guess these days I sort have gotten into the habit of taking the fact I’m happy most of the time for granted. In fact it’s been nearly a year since my last bout of deep depression.

    Bouts of depression aside though, I’ve been happy for the best part of 20 years now, and there’s no doubt that’s something to be grateful for, and to show thanks in life where ever I can. Every little bit of good I do in the world is a way of showing my gratitude for what was shown to me in the first place and has kept me going since.

    Thanks to all those that gave for me, taught me to give, and I hope I do as well for others.

    Thursday night ramblings…


    2010 - 04.08

    For a short week it’s been a very very LONG week! Can’t wait for 17:00 tomorrow.

    This week i’ve been filling two roles, and I’ve been dragged into more work politics than I’d like: I can’t wait to go back to being a “pleb” on the ground. I’m much happier forgetting the politics and getting back on the ground helping get REAL work done!

    Also this week I’ve started an exercise (or perhaps I REALLY mean exOrcise) regime. My last threesome left me feeling somewhat less than 100% up to par so I’ve found the motivation to try and regain my fitness level of 10 years ago. If nothing else at the moment it’s helping me sleep better at night. Seems Furbag is having trouble waking me up last few nights.

    Given that tomorrow is Friday, I may go for a quick trip to check out JB Hifi and see if LoRT Blue-Ray is there yet, given it was released on the 6th just gone. I’m still dubious about the worth given the lack lustre reviews, but somehow I don’t think I’ll be able to help myself…

    Nice way to finish a work week…


    2010 - 04.01

    Left work this morning at 06:30 for a drive to SA Border and back to do 2 jobs! Amazing Fog all the way this morning, with only a break for 1km each side of Hamilton. Neither job had any surprises which was absolutely amazing considering the drive.

    Back home by 14:30 SO pretty much a perfect work day. Some days are just plain EXCELLENT!

    And I am having Tuesday as an ADO so get an extra day off!!

    The Crazy Trail continues…


    2010 - 03.28

    Well last week was another crazy week at work, but it’s over and yesterday was very relaxing. Still doesn’t bode well for this coming week. I’m glad it’s only four days.

    I just wonder how it is that Project “Managers” get jobs in the first place, and why people seem to think they should be paid so much money for constant fuck ups!

    The Week that was, wasn’t…


    2010 - 03.12

    Relatively benign in the end 🙂

    Something Special not this day came…


    2010 - 03.10

    A surprisingly uneventful day at work, loving it just for a change.

    The Week that yet was…


    2010 - 03.09

    Here’s hoping this week is not as insane as last. Either way, the weekend’s been fantastic for the soul!
