JailSucks

My boss has been arrested and is currently in court posting bail. That makes me feel a little bit silly but at least he pays me. I'm not sure what he was arrested for, something about illegal ammunition... (I couldn't hear him properly the reception was shite)

During lunch I'm going to buy a pair of fishnets for Rocky Horror tonight. It's fucking freezing in Jo today but I won't let that stop me from having a good time.

Yay, I'm not pregnant, I'm just getting really fat. I kid you not, you'll see on the 7th May.

My puppies' eyes are open!! How exciting, I can't wait to take them home and name them.

Haven't got much else to say so I'll end with a quote which follows on from yesterday's one: " If you want to sleep with the whole of South Africa, then you may as well move out because I don't want a slut in my house." My uncle is soooo weird.

not that I wish my boss went to jail, or that your boss stayed there, but still, how many people outside of organized crime could say that their boss did time? ;-)

Regarding boss: o_O ... find out if he was hoarding illegal ammo (paranoid paramilitary Joburgers!) or smuggling illegal ammo; if it's the latter, perhaps it's time to explore other job prospects. ;)

Regarding uncle: o_O (especially in light of prior quote)

Well, at least you're not pregnant. :)

And ooooooooh, puppies! Are we going to see photos of the puppies?

Comment: Re: Hmmm... (by WednesdayleFey? on 2005-04-22 13:20:39)

Photos will be posted as soon as I officially own the puppies ie. when their mommy doesn't growl at me anymore.

Also I don't think my boss is doing anything that illigal because he's extremely anal and a control freak and he refuses to deal with the government because they're shady.

Comment: Geeeh (by WombatBoy? on 2005-04-22 14:05:22)

Reality it definately constant with respect to time, I turn my back for like half a year and all hell breaks lose.

That and my dice are rolling really badly.

{eek}

PinkElephants

Okay, this is the fourth time I've logged on today and I've finally remembered to post. I kept wondering why I was logged on and closing the window.

Big things are happening at work and the next month is going to be hectic. Work now starts at seven thirty but ends at four thirty so at least I'll avoid some homeward traffic. (Although it'll still probably take over an hour to get home) The company will also be earning in its plus a million bracket at last, so maybe I'll get a raise.

I'm still feeling fat and tired and my nose is bleeding all over the place again. Sigh. I'm supposed to watch Dahling and the boys play cricket tonight but I can't be bothered so I'll just pop a sleeping pill instead. Not that I even watch cricket when I do go along, but its a support thing I think. I'm still having relationship issues, which is weird cause I thought I'd be able to handle anything considering the shit I had before. Oh well.

I went to visit Nightwatch the other day and he lives in the most amazing home. The house is on Little John Avenue in a susurb called Nottingham Forest. How cool is that. There's even a Maid Marion Street. The house is huge and has a beautiful garden. His mom is the Darklight seamstress and they have 12 cats, 5 dogs, snakes , 4 peacocks (2 are chicks) and ducks. His mom's a hippy/goth type who is amazingly creative, she paints, decorates etc all on her own. The coolest thing about the place was the atmosphere. I don't think I've ever felt so relaxed. Wow, I'm glad I decided to visit.:-D

Another quote from my uncle Raymond: " What do you want to be in a relationship for? Don't tie youself down, you're young. Go out and have casual sex, everyone's doing it."

...sounds somewhat fruity :-)

BronzeButtons

I scored my first goal at soccer on Sunday!:-D Yay! Admittedly we still lost but who cares, I'm not particularly competitive anyway. Those were the semis so now we are 3rd place and get bronze medals and free booze. Also I'm captain for next season and have convinced Bubbles to join the team since my sister's writing her matric exams. I still can't run up and down for 2 minutes though, am so unfit maybe gym is an option.

I've finally found a seamstress to make my dress for IoFW? 3. She's the official Darklight seamstress and I'll be seeing her tomorrow. Thank you Nightwatch I love you.

I also have erupted in stress related zits.:-( I even disgust myself and am less friendly to the bathroom mirror than usual. I'm still getting fat. I'm contemplating not eating chocolate ice-cream for breakfst anymore...

Ummm, no, I like ice-cream too much. Just spoke to Kitty Kat about d@vid's LARP and am glad to hear that she's ok;-) and that the LARP was alot of fun.

I'm booking my flight tomorrow, had a bit of a problem procuring the funds for it and am sick and tired of people telling me that it's too expensive. I love roleplaying and have had to endure life without it for way too long. No one understands, the cost isn't that important.

My boss is MiA? so I'm a lil concerned. Haven't been able to reach him since Friday. Oh well.

I might be going to see Spongebob this week, how exciting.

Just as a matter of interest, my dad has once again called me a slut. Not using those exact words but that's what he meant. I've been quite faitful so far with the new boy (if you leave out perving of course) so I really don't understand my dad. My house is being sold:-( for 1 million rand. It's worth so much more but desperate times are here so I have to just deal with it.

Quote of my day : " A man has to pay for his vagina one way or another" by my uncle Raymond when discussing marriage{eek}

Yummy

I'm making plans, lots of them.:-p Firstly I'm going to make a blood sacrifice to Diana and ask that the wooziness I've been experiencing for the past few days is not pregnancy induced. Hopefully this works and the test will show up negative saving me the troubl of booking an abortion at the clinic.Sigh, but it's my own fault, it's not like people don't advertise protection like everywhere.

I might go to the Doors tonight, as it is Johan's b-day. I'm not particularly up for it and would rather sleep, so maybe that's what I'll do instead. The Fiance's lanning:-( all weekend with the rest of everybody so it's bound to be sooooo boring that I won't be able to help sleeping. Yay.

Planning to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the theatre next Friday. I'm so chuffed. We're going to dress up and sing along, possibly to the annoyance of the rest of the crowd, but it's not like I care so what the hell.

1 May's going to be awesome. Going to the goth party at Zeplin's. I've even called up some people I haven't seen in yonks and convinced them to come along.;-)

I've also been plotting:-p my wedding (again). I want a traditional Chinese wedding and I even know who's going to do the catering. Dude, I can't wait!

P.S. If anyone sees Gareth (Saul) please tell him I said hi. Shot, I don't know why but the other day my brain wondered how he was doing.;-)

...has peanuts, not yummy at all

you are /expected/ to dress up, sing along, and throw peanuts at rocky horror - if you don't you will be shunned :-D

I am now using a blog aggregator called lektora to keep up, since there're off-CLAWsite? blogs that I do try to read - unfortunately I don't get CLAWsite? comments, though

I mention this only because you should expect comments from south americans soon - by soon I mean "eventually" - since they have now been emailed your blog address - next step on the road to wikihood: logging in

should be seeing lemony snicket this weekend, after some "secret" party that kat has organised - don't ask me, I'm not supposed to know {confused}

zomg! you'll be {insert emotion here} to hear that hitchhiker's got a bad review from MJ Simpson, one of DNA's biographers; personally, I am distraught for two reasons: he says it's bad, and he's not joking, and Google Alerts didn't pick it up

ha! between comments and the Flower War mailing list I won't have to make a blog post until June 10

Comment: HHG Movie (by OOPMan on 2005-04-18 07:58:53)

Don't worry d@ve. A lot of other people who have worked with Douglas really enjoyed the movie and thought it was bloody hilarious. Most of them are of the opinion that MJ Simpson (Who I never even heard about before the HHG review fiasco) was waaaaaaay too critical and had some truly naive expectations of the movie (Ie. That it would be a direct analogy to the book and more). While the other favourable reviews admit that it's not as perfect as it could have been, it's by no means bad.

This is what happens when you pay too much attention to what other people who are largely meaningless individuals with little to merit their opinions other than one or two minor achievements that, ultimately, are relative and meaningless.
(Ie. Critics)

ShortHello

Hi all, am still trying to arrange a booking for the weekend of IoFW?. There is no way in hell I'm paying the same as last time. Dammit why does Cape Town have to be so far away!

Am very excited, or at least as excited as I can be in my grownup-ness (which isn't much), to see you all again. Especially looking forward to having cocktails on the beach again.

BTW the date for IoFW? is very inconvenient for me, it's memorial for me big sister. You suck why couldn't we have used the long weekend?

Gotta get back to work, cheers

Comment: Vulcan Logic! (by BlueHands on 2005-04-13 12:18:21)

well, Spock said it best: the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one or the few.

I apologise if the date's an inconvenience BUT us marhsals have other commitments we have to work around...plus there is a time frame we need to work with, what with people leaving soon for pastures greener.

Comment: Greener? (by WombatBoy? on 2005-04-13 19:51:17)

More water doesn't imply more greenery.

My old geography teacher didn't refer to Britain as a mudbank for no reason you know.

Comment: Important (by WombatBoy? on 2005-04-13 20:39:44)
