Good times

Hey guys!

Back again haha.

Just had a really good night out with my best friend and her partner drinking and having laughs. I reckon that's always the best kind of good night. Don't have to be in town partying it up to have fun!
Tarot cards are good fun too. Always need to be taken seriously though if you believe in that sort of thing, which I happen to.
It's quite freaky how accurate they can be, really. I got a few cards tonight but the ones that will stick in my mind most are the one that told me I need to follow my heart in respect to a career. Which makes a lot of sense and means a lot to me considering I have chopped and changed ideas of what I think I should do. But now it is becoming clearer to me that what I really want to do is English. So I am taking the plunge and applying for University for next year. By correspondence though so I can still work and earn teh monies.

The other card I got, well two consecutive cards, were patience! And to have more of it! This also makes a lot of sense to me considering that my entire life I have had little to no patience what so ever. But apparently if I am to be patient then all I want shall work out...

Another one said that there is someone in my life who is manipulating and bringing me down pretty much, and that I need to get rid of them. I can't figure out who this might be as over this last year I have made a point of ditching the people that I feel are causing me to be unhappy and surrounding myself with good people. My friend pointed out that it could mean there WILL be someone entering my life who is manipulative etc. So I'll be wary I think...

So yeah! For me this is all very interesting stuff :-)

Got myself more books! I am so in love with Mighty Ape just now...
I have bought myself On the Road by Jack Kerouac and Confessions of an English Opium Eater by Thomas Hardy (?). And I ordered three more last night... Tee hee :-P
I is a geek! :-D

I'm really behind the times here (as usual) but I have an obsession with Tenacious D at the moment. Especially The Pick of Destiny soundtrack. It's epic!

Hmmm... So yeah. As you can see I'm not very interesting at the moment!
So I'm going to fuck off now and read Sherlock Holmes...

:-D

RANT!

Hey guys,

So I'm pretty much just going to rant here for a bit to make me feel a tad better...

Things that are fucking me off:

1: GAMING and the amount of it my partner has done today. Usually I don't mind but it's when I have to listen to really annoying people on Team Speak that I object! Especially when I can hear a REALLY fucking irritating female voice OVER the headphones that I am trying to watch/hear a movie through! If I was playing Call of Duty I would be killing her ass and telling her to shut the fuck up cos no one wants to hear her whiny voice! I am about to go nato on something, I swear...

2: The fact that there is always fuck all on TV on a Sunday night. Why is that?? Don't people want to watch something really interesting/brutal/insane to block out the fact that work is only mere hours away? I know I do!

3: Constant random quiz posts on Facebook. Uh, guys? NO ONE WANTS THEIR PAGE SPAMMED WITH THAT SHIT.

I am an angry little person this evening. I'd apologise for it but I don't see why I should, really. It's my blog and I'll rant if I want to.

Do men ever grow up? What does a woman have to do to be taken seriously and listened to? Men are the most frustrating creatures in the world. I swear. Sometimes I wonder why we females as a whole put up with them. I'm sure there must be a reason, I just can't see it right now.
I'm quite tempted to jump on the scooter and go for a blat to let off some steam. The only thing that's stopping me is the fact that I will have to get dressed properly. Yes, I am lazy as well as angry right now. And hungry. Did I mention I'm hungry?

I will put something positive in here to make you feel a little better and like this wasn't a complete waste of your time.
Shop with Mighty Ape. I have fallen in love with them and their amazing deals. Plus shipping is cheap and they actually deliver when they say they will! Add to the fact that they have a whole range of books that you'd be hard pressed to find in stores. Well, Wellington stores anyway.

So there you go. There is my post for today. Feel free to comment and make me feel better. Or whatever. I just like it when people talk to me :-P

:-D

Boo! Tee hee

Rahhh!

I am back! Lolz. Has been a while, but I have made it back to the land of blog. I don't even have the "I've been busy" excuse, as all I have done is work, work, sleep and work some more. So tiresome! All I can say is, thank fuck it's a three day weekend.

Just to update on the happenings, or lack there of...
We just enjoyed drinks at our house with four close friends. One of whom is leaving us for Australia soon. Very sad to see him go :-( But, tonight was a good night! Lots of drinks (not me) and great conversation plus heaps of laughs. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard.

We have acquired a new addition to our little rat family too (if I have already posted on this, I apologize). His name is Scrudder. Yes, slightly unfortunate but I don't think he minds too much... He is very tiny and so amazingly cute! And incredibly intelligent it would seem. He has just this evening figured out that when the lid to the enclosure is off he can climb the walls and get out. Not good. Now we are going to have to rearrange the whole cage to stop this Tarzan of a rat escaping! Cheeky fucker...

Still refusing to watch Breakfast since Paul Henry 'resigned'. I have heard mutterings that Tamati the weather guy will be taking his place. Even more reason to not watch...
Speaking of Tamati, we drove past a Tui billboard the other weekend and it said:
"I watch Breakfast for Tamati anyway. Yeah Right"
LOL fucking epic! Go you Tui beauties.

I pondered some more on what I am going to do as a career. I am thinking that I will do an English degree at Massey extramurally. Can't be a painter forever! Plus I love books... Hehe me nerd!

Like I said, lack of happenings.

It is currently 12:28am and I am sitting here wondering what to do with my long weekend. Do I sleep in? Probably. Do I read? Hopefully. Do I play Command and Conquer? More than likely. Do we blat around Wellington on the scooter? Hell yes!

I think that's all from me tonight. My brain has turned to mush...

:-D

Pets for the win!

Hello hello there,

So today we got the grand idea of getting a pet. A pet rat! He is so gorgeous it's silly. But, he has been lumbered with the unfortunate name Buga. Pronounced Bugger. Just to be clear, not my choice! I'm just glad he won't recognize that he is called Buga and get a complex about it or something.
It has been one hell of a mission packed day today! Built an epic rat enclosure (complete with a massive plastic window and two floors), shopping trip to get all of the bits and pieces to keep little Buga occupied and warm, and then actually buying him! He is very spoiled, he has a running wheel, an igloo to sleep in, plenty of food and water and also a little ball to run around the house in! It's like a Zorb, but rat sized. EPIC. Can't wait to get him in it!

Got to play with my cute little nephew in law aswell. 10 months old and so cute!

Update on Mr.Buga, We got him in the Zorb! Yussss! Didn't really know what he was meant to do... but got him in none the less! We've kind of gone nuts on the whole thing I think. We have made him a little bridge to play on, he has a dinosaur to chew on, ping pong balls to play with and camo netting to climb on! Plus fake flowers strung around his cage. Just for a bit of colour... :-P

So tomorrow morning will be interesting. Blood tests! W00t! NOT. I usually end up nearly passing out so I am not looking forward to this... AND it's a fasting one so I can't have breakfast! :-(
Plus on top of that it looks like I'm going to have to have knee surgery at some stage. I finally found a doctor who is willing to refer me to an Orthopedic surgeon to get this shit sorted! I have been in pain for the last seven years and no doctor has even thought about doing anything remotely helpful. My doctor For The Win! Will be nice to be able to sit cross legged again AND be able to walk when I get up!

Summer is here!

Hey guys,

It would seem that Summer has started already, going by the epic sunburn I got yesterday... Very painful and very hideous! I look like I have a wife beater singlet stuck on me :-( It could be worse though, I could be unable to move.

So delving into the Paul Henry issue this week. I am mighty annoyed that he has been suspended for speaking his mind. Sure, I admit that there is a line and yes, he MAY have ALMOST crossed it, but I still don't think we should be punishing people for saying what they think. This country is too damn politically correct! It's like they're trying to wrap us in cotton wool and save our poor little selves from truth. I mean, honestly, Paul Henry just says what everyone else is really thinking but is too afraid to say. I am boycotting Breakfast until he is back on air because it is just too boring without him!
Oh, and fuck you Green's, he will never be sacked! No matter how much you whinge and moan the people still love him. And, even if you don't love him, I bet you still admire him for saying what he means but just don't want to admit it!
BRING BACK PAUL HENRY!

Anyway... who would like to sell a new knee to me? Must be in better working order than mine, fairly new. Will pay fair price.

Who wants to hear about a book I'm reading? No? Well fuck ya, you're gonna hear about it anyway! :-P
Little Vampire Women! Piss take of Little Women. Bloody (literally) awesome so far! Haven't actually read the original yet, so can't comment too much... But, it is very entertaining and I do recommend it. Not lame like Twilight and all those others, I promise!
Will comment further when I have read more.
I have way too many books piled up waiting to be read right now. I can't stop buying them! Although, in my defense I could NOT leave George Orwell's Keep the Aspidistra Flying (hope I spelled that right) on the shelf. It was begging to be bought because the book fairies know that I love Orwell and they were pressuring me I tell you! Pressuring me to buy it! So I bought it. There. I'm weak. I caved to the fairies and their heckling.

I think I'll leave it there for today. I'm really quite tired!

Back soon! :-D

Oh weekend, how I love thee.

Hey guys,

And so another weekend winds down...

Was a pretty epic weekend though, in the sense that it seemed very long! Which is awesome! Usually my weekends are filled with housework and grocery shopping, but not this weekend thank God!

It all started on Friday night when my partner and I took the train to my parents house, straight after work. Had a good time up there chilling out with the horses, seeing my little sister and generally relaxing. Nice!
BIG day today though (Sunday), got up insanely early to get the bloody train home to put in a toilet at the in-laws. Thankfully that didn't take too long and we were able to go and have a really nice lunch in town, sitting in the sun. It was one of those blissful days where there's no wind, the sun is shining and you're in the company of an awesome person :-) Ahhhh... I hope next weekend is the same!
And of course we spent the most part of the afternoon blatting around town on the scooter hehe :-D Big LOL here, we thought we needed to fill up so went to the gas station and only needed $5 worth! LOL!

So anyways... Bought a fair few magazines over the weekend too. One of them being Marie Claire. I am so glad these guys make this magazine because it is actually relevant to a woman of my age! Interesting articles, amazing shoes (that I could NEVER afford but still drool over), and really good hints and tips for everyday life as a woman.

I'm sure I have other things to write about but I'm so bloody tired I can't think right now...
Be back later lovely readers!

:-D
