11:51 pm - Little update
Guess i haven't posted here in a while, but life has been pretty ho hum until now.

For now however, excitement prevails!

Cool fact #1 - Finally after 23 years i move out.  Not only do i move out, but i move to within a short drunken stroll from the city.  It is a dream come true - no more $80 taxi fares home after a big night out.  Oh yeah and that reject Alicia is coming up to help pay my bills.  Can't win 'em all i guess :S

Cool fact #2 - I did much better than expected in my first semester back at uni - two Cs a D and a HD (in philosophy!).  Sure it's only 1st year subjects, but it's amazing how your brain stagnates after being out in the workforce for so long.  Plus I slacked off again.  I am determined to try harder this semester.

Cool fact #3 - Though i have made very few friends in my subjects, the UQ kung fu bunch are solid.  I have a bbq to go to on saturday, and a cocktail party in the coming weeks!  I do miss all the tkd kicking though :(  And no uni games :( :(

Pps - if i'm not about after the weekend it's coz the internets doesn't get connected til roughly the 17th.  I think i will have violent CS withdrawal symptoms.
Ppps - New address: 27/15 Tribune Street, South Brisbane 4101.  Feel free to send me love and/or money

Pete claims it's ugly.  But then pete drives a celica, so what would he know? :P

Ps - Happy 22nd Caz!  Your international aid package might arrive before you leave...i had to send it by seamail as airmail was going to cost me an arm and a leg!

09:26 pm - Back to the ip'switch side of town...

Just in case you were wondering, yes I have indeed made it back to Brisbane in one piece.  Highlights of my week include....

  • THE SALMON MOUSSE
  • Squires Loft, then Pugs, then the Casino, then watching Kieran run back into the casino with a manic glint in his eye just as we were about to leave 
  • Shufflór in all His glory
  • getting from our $25 buy in down to $3 in gamblór (entirely caz's fault) and then making a glorious comeback only to be smashed by [info]leighbo_nojutsu, placing us 3rd and broke
  • Discovering that Krispy Kremes aren't all that
  • losing two games of pool to Bridgette (the shame of which was negated by watching her fall on her arse when she dared to attack me)
  • almost being spun off a mountain by Kieran
  • driving to the airport at some ungodly time, only to wait about for hours, to thoroughly piss the groundstaff off and return home without losing anybody
  • rocking up to Prices impromptu party and surprisingly having quite a good time
  • staying up til 5 in the morn on my last night with Pete and Lachie and Price and pretty much finishing off any open bottle in sight, drinking absinthe, eating chicken chippees and making sparklerbombs

And so here i am, been back at work two days and i'm well and truly over it!

06:26 pm - I had a ball
Most of you will be aware that my sporting prowess is for the most part, for want of a better word....lacking.
Last night however I managed a feat even I am ashamed to tell.

4 games of bowling.  4 losses.
To a girl.

There is no god.

Hey y'all, I'm back.  Nothing all that exciting really happend, though the highlight for me was consuming a bottle of vodka in an afternoon.  Oh and one of Bretts mates bought himself a penis pump.  Leighbo you can borrow it sometime if you'd like.

Goodtimes!

09:50 pm - You may seek it with thimbles - and seek it with care, You may hunt it with forks and hope...
Greetings children, and appologies for keeping you so long between posts.  I know that you're just dying to keep abrest of the myriad of exciting details that make up my life.  A word of caution however:  the following is mostly inane self-centred drivel and not particularly worthy of your time (nothing out of the ordinary then, you say!)

In the words of Dave Hughes I'm very very ANGRY at my father and my car.  It has been due for its 200 000 km service for a while now and I finally managed to get a day off and book it in.  Right off the bat I was quoted at least $500 just for the sheer amount of labour involved, oil changes etc etc.  On top of that it was getting a roadworthy because it's still in my dad's name, even though I bought it well over 3 months ago now.  And so I figure at the very worst It's going to cost me maybe $800.  $1350 later i'm starting to doubt the claim that Fords are cheap to maintain.  Apparently the injectors needed to be taken out and ultrasonically cleaned, my rear rotors were something like 8mm thick while for a roadworthy they had to be 8.5mm minimum.  And a whole pile of little things like blown globes etc. 

But to add insult to injury part of the deal when I bought the car was that my father would pay for the 200000km service, as it was nearly due.  I pointed out that it was to be a major service while he insisted that once you did the 100000km major service there were no more to be done.  Ok i said, but you're paying for it.  Done deal.  Now he claims that he was only going to pay for a basic service, and even then just the service fee - not including parts or labour.  So if i'm lucky i'll be looking at recouping maybe $125.  That just goes to show you kiddies - don't do business with family!  And tonight at dinner he had the hide to suggest that they'd pay $600 towards it if i'd agree to move out!  Hahaha talk about bribery. I mean hell, i don't like living at home one little bit and given recent events I would be seriously considering moving out if it weren't for the seed that has taken root in my mind....

...and that is of course to go back to uni.  It has taken me three years of working (gosh has it been that long?) to come to the conclusion that I still don't know what i really want to do with my life.  On the plus side, i'm fairly certain it isn't retail.  I doubt there's anything as depressing as serving scum day in and day out, scum who you know haven't done an honest days work in their lives, scum who get paid, with money sourced from MY taxes, to sit on their arse all day drinking.  It's got me thinking (and this is rather Orwellian I know), that this proposed national ID card could have its good points.  In the future if this idea were to be rolled with creditcards, bank accounts etc (and lets face it, inevitably, one day, something like this WILL happen.  On a global scale) those who were entirely assisted by government could be barred from engaging in vices such as cigarettes/alcohol/gambling.  Food for thought...

...and back to uni again - i get sidetracked easily i know.  Anyway i was thinking of starting the dreaded arts degree (=P) and just picking for subjects that hold an interest for me in my first semester.  Hell i don't even care if they have nothing to do with whatever it is i would be majoring in.  Just an opportunity to study in depth somethings that i've always held an interest for me but that I've never been able to pursue in school/uni due to more 'relevent' subjects to what was once my chosen career path.  Given the fairly light studyload i should be able to keep working decent hours and have a little cash to throw about, plus i wouldn't have to pay board at home any longer and it should keep my parents happy (though i dunno how they feel about arts degrees, considering they're both scientists!).  With a small amount of luck i would stumble across a subject that would truly excite me, something that i could pursue with passion and make a major of.  Anyway UQ is having an information evening tomorrow night so i'll pop along and see what they have to say.  I would also like to point out that I had this idea before Burgess.  Always two steps behind...

It appears to be a time of introspection for a few people i know, and though perhaps a painful exercise it does, in the end, serve a worthwhile purpose as a catalyst for change.  It seems to me that many of us are just now, not grasping but beginning to fully appreciate the concept of time, more specifically that where once we were young and free to do as we pleased with the promise of a glorious future, we are now becoming acutely aware that time is surely marching away from us, and that missed opportunites are not so easily salvaged.  I see what others have acheived in the time since we parted ways, or the things that my parents acheived by the time they were my age, and i compare it to what I have under my belt.  It is not a favourable comparison to make.  I can only conclude that drive is what sets us apart.  Surely there is no greater sadness in life than for a man to not know his calling?  So with this in mind I am making an effort to get out of the rut i find myself in.  Though not entirely unpleasant it does not hold any interest in the way of a future for me, and I am done wasting time on this endeavour.  The time has come to galvanise - my finger is on the button ;)

03:50 pm - She left it dead, and with its head, She came galumphing back
So there i was just sitting back on the verandah, digesting my greasy meal of chips and hotdog after a fair sized night on the town.  I hear a commotion in the bushes and so call mimi, coz she's invariably chasing a lizard or similar.  But of course she ignores me, and sits there staring at something on the footpath.  So grudgingly I get up to investigate.  What do i see, but a spray of blood 3 feet long, 30cm worth of the top half of a rather surprised looking and slowly and painfully expiring snake, and a frog just sitting there looking happy to be alive. 

Now the frog puzzles me.  Option 1 is that the snake was busy attacking the frog and got jumped by mimi, or option 2 (my favourite) the snake got jumped by mimi, and in the process of being severed in half the frog was freed from its belly.  This either makes mimi a cold blooded killer, or a hero of the people given that the frog is of the rare/bordering on endangered variety.  Or perhaps a bit of both as her scorecard stands as follows:

Mimi 1: Great Wyrm 0 
Mimi 1: Parrot of some description 0
Mimi 2: Rabbits 0
Mimi 1: Canetoad 0 (mimi ended up frothing at the mouth for a while though!)
Mimi 3: Large Rats 0
Mimi 1: Large skink 0
Mimi 0:Possum 0 (draw)
Mimi 0 Barbed wire fence 1: Vet 1

07:47 pm - I want that freaking head-humper!
Man i so very desperately want one of these!  Pity it costs more to ship it here than the product itself.  More than $50 US for a plush toy is a little excessive methinks :(
