leave me hanging!  
I watched Atlantis.

The Last Man.

It was great.

Also, it is still hot.

Just in case I'm being spoilery about Atlantis. )

I still have the remnants of my cold. My head feels about 3 sizes too big, my ears are blocked and I still have a husky voice. (Which I'm sure sounds great on the switchboard!)

Had a rather hilarious day at work. Which was refreshing! Scott, the guy I was working with was pretty hilarious all day! Yay for good days at work.

early mornings  
So, look at me...sneezing and coughing. STILLLLL!

I think I have problems! Maybe I should see a doctor. I don't really like to go to the Doctor. Growing up with a nurse as a mother (or is that a mother who's a nurse?) I don't think I've been to a doctor more than say 6 times in my whole life! (You know the life that I remember...you know, baby years not included.)

Anywho. Wasn't that interesting! Achoo!

I can't wait to go back to the dayshift. No more weekend work. I have to work tomorrow and it's annoying me....Just the idea of 'oh I should go to bed in a minute becasue I have to get up at 5:30 and it's the weekend.' Well, I don't like it!
But, I do like the rates....

Oh, my brother got a job. With Foxtel. Yay.
Hopefully I will be in Adelaide sometime soon. I have been applying for jobs there again. I don't really know what I want to do, but I just feel like I'm not doing anything here...you know, like it's not going anywhere.

I'm using IE! Oh my god!
For some reason Firefox has decided that it wanted to crash and then close but not let me re-open because it's techically still running and has tp be shut down...What the!?
So, yeah, for the sake of not restarting my computer, I'm using IE. Bleh.

Why have I not been watching Torchwood!? Didn't even know season 2 was on.

And, with that....off to bed!

Loser.

other other news  
I seem to start every entry like this...but, I'm a slacker!

Onto other news.

Work is driving me crazy!

And in other other news....Um, I'm totally fangirling. Atlantis and Supernatural are taking up most of my non-working time. And American Idol is becoming a slight addiction (Go David Cook...and Brook...and Carly!)

I'm contemplating buying a psp. I know I probably shouldn't as I would be tempted to take it everywhere and become a total anti-social being, but I just really want to buy one! I mean, tetris is getting old! Ha.

So, my mother had her first dose of her new medication yesterday. Hopefully this will work better for her. Apparently it gives your immune system a break so that the myelin can repair itself!

Um, I missed the Oscars. I don't really care all that much...but I'm still not entirely sure who won what, though I must say, I did google the red carpet! I'm not that into fashion and junk, but er, I like to see what people wear and judge them buy that. Ha. Jokes. I did catch the weird Gary Busey moment though!!

I watched the Chumscrubber the other day. I think that Jamie Bell is my new favourite actor. (But, I'm still not going to watch King Kong!) I mean, not that he wasn't great in Billy Elliot, but yeah. Amazed!

Ugh, well, Atlantis should be up now....I will update more often and thrill you with my crap! Wheee....

Lest We Forget 11/11/07  
So, I just saw on the news that a recruitment agency for Santa's (in South Aus somewhere I guess - didn't catch where) has asked the Santas to replace 'Ho Ho Ho' with 'Ha Ha Ha' because it may scare the kiddies annnnd it could be seen as a slur against women!!

I was like WTF!!! The world is mad! That's what I've decided. Mad mad mad.

In other news, I bought Jericho season 1 not long ago, and now I've watched it all and then I find out that season 2 hasn't aired yet and I have to wait. I'm impatient. This does not work for me!

Er, I think I've come to a decision that I'm not going to apply for the shift work position that I;m currently filling in for. I think I would prefer to keep my dayshift job.

Not long now til the A&E Christmas Show! Last years on the boat was awesome, I can't wait for this years. Yay for mystery bus tours!!

My cousin Kym got married yesterday. It was nice.

Whatelse could I possibly yammer on about. Oh, who has seen The Chronicles of Sarah Connor? I'm d'ling the first ep at the moment. Wondering what it'll be like.

I liked the last Atlantis ep, now I know Carson was the best doctor ever and then they killed him off...but I don't mind Keller. I was on some message boards the other day and people are so anti-keller and it made me sad.... I think she'll be alright. Sure, no Carson *sobs* but yeah.
Don't even get me started on the Weir - Carter thing. As much as I like Carter, Weir really grew on me!

Ok, enough yammering about tv shows!

In other news, I have no idea who I'm going to vote for! Politics disturbs me!

OK, I'm finished...

HO HO HO!!

12 days of christmas  
Sooooo...the A&E Christmas party was soooooo completely awesome.
Heres how it went.
At 5pm Friday we went to Sues house, the bus arrived at 5:30...we got on the bus to head to our mystery destination.
Which was Port Augusta....for a cruise on the Gulf!
It was great. Plus such great weather for it. And everyone else seemed to have a great time too.
We went an hour and a half one way then an hour and a half back. They served cocktails (huge fricken cocktails) and nibbles and whatnot on the cruise.

Every year they do the bus to the mystery destination thing. Catch a bus somewhere....
It was just perfect.
Had a fricken ball!

Then we got the bus back to Sues and hung around there for a while drinking and chatting and nibbling on things...

Was a fantastic night.

Anywho, just thought I'd write that, before I forget to.

It was kinda sad in a way that it was sort of a farewell for Darryl, Marcus and Goldy, but it was a good send off.
And Goldy said she'll be at next years regardless, and Darryl and Marcus better be too.

Anywho, yes. My point was...had a great night!

That is all for now.

Toddle-loo!

Open your choice of music player [iTunes, Limewire, Kazaa, etc.] and put it on shuffle.
Press play.
For every question type the song that’s on.
And when you go to a new question press the next button.
No cheating.
Ready?
GO!

christmas shopping...what?  
I like to update when I have nothing to say!

Um, I bought my mums Christmas present today! I know, I know, it's june...But, she saw something she liked so I was like, cool. Less shopping for me at Christmas time.
I love the feeling of being organised, however that is probably the most organised I will be when it comes to Christmas. (Or anything at all really!)

I just got called into work for tomorrow. Yayzors! An afternoon. Afternoons are so wonderful. I really don't enjoy the getting up early thing, so going to work at 3pm sounds like a fantastic idea!
Plus, I actually have shifts rostered for the next couple of months, so yay for getting more work! So, after tomorrow, I'm working Wednesday on an afternoon aswell. Unless Verity calls in sick for Tuesday, I might get that too. But I hope she's feeling better, though it would be nice to work. Wow, what a dilemma! =P (Ok, I'll cease the work ramble now.)

I guess this is also kind of work related, but I am so proud of myself for saving money! I suck at that, so the fact that I have a savings account that actually contains money makes me smile! Props to me! Hehe.

Ummmmmmm...yeah. Nothing to say!

yay for mango smoothies  
Well...I find it quite odd to not use the internet for like...a whole week!
Yeah, I had a cold so I spent a lot of last week coughing and sneezing whilst under my blankets. It was um, fun. No. I'm sooo glad that it has pretty much disappeared!

Yesterday I went to this aggression management course at work. It was this whole day thing about how to deal with patients etc that get aggressive...and how to get out of headlocks and things.
It was actually pretty cool. And plus, I get payed for going to it. Yay me.

Er, in other news...first part of the Supernatural finale last night! 0_0
I don't want it to end. Even though I've seen it, I don't want it to not be on tv for how ever long it's going to take for us to get season two!!!
Yeah. That's all.
I like Supernatural is my point.

And, I've been watching too much Gilmore Girls. But I love it, so yay.
They've got repeats on arena in the afternoon and I just love it.
Last night was the Dean & Rory three month anniversary one.

Anywho. I will stop talking about tv. Ha.

But, I have nothing else to talk about so, adios!

Not long ago I did that myheritage face recognition thing. I was just browsing my old entries and thought I'd do it again. But I used a different picture and it made me laff that they are completely different people!!! )

oh look, shopping  
Man, I gotta stop reading so much. No wait, what?

So, I mentioned my love for Enders Game last post, so I guess I shouldn't go on about it here... >.> <.<

Er, went shopping again today.
I bought things I don't need, but I plan to maybe go back and buy the shoes that I was going to buy but then thought I didn't need but now would really like...man shutup!

I have a list of books that I want to read, but I don't have any of them, so that will be my next adventure. Buying books.
Maybe I'll go to Adelaide, visit my brother, buy lots of books then come home and turn into a hermit and do nothing but read and go to work.
That would be nice.


Anywho, that's all.
I might post some icons later. I haven't done that in fricken...forever!

Toodles.

Reading is super  
I don't really know why I'm updating as I should probably do that sleeping thing right about now...but yeah.

So, I just finished reading Enders Game. Seriously, go and read it, I loved it too too much! Now I think I might have to get some more Orson Scott Card to read.
I have this whole list of stuff that I want to read, so maybe I'll read them first. I don't know.
I just have this reading thing at the moment. I want to read good books.
I mean, you know, one's that keep me interested.
I just love the idea of finding a book that you can't put down, that you just want to keep reading until you've finished it, but then you're kind of sad when you acutally do finish it. (G33K!)

Yeah.

Er, Sarah had her baby today. Well, yesterday now, since it's after 12 and all.
Mary Claire. Awwwwwww! Congrats Sarah & Christian!!!!!!


So, I think I might update my ipod and then go to bed...and listen to music for a while.

Oh, this morning was apparently the coldest June day we've had in 15 years. Cool.
The only thing I don't like about winter is being cold in the morning when you get out of the shower. Other than that, I really do love winter.
Oh, except for the fact that our roller door doesn't seem to like the cold and is very temperamental on cold mornings.

I made a different header again. @)

Soo...Supernatural likes to eat my soul. In a good way.
I love that show way too much.

In other news, I believe that this weekend there is an SG1 season 6 marathon on TV1. I'm just a little excited about that!!!1!

Oh...here are some pictures of Whyalla, which is where I live. I got an email of these pics that this guy had put up and I think they look really prettiful. So, yes...

Wow, so it is finally June 10th this weekend. I feel like I've been blabbing on about June 10th for ages, and now I can finally say it is this weekend!! Wooo!

Er, that's it.

sleep to dream  
I am tired.

I had the worst sleep ever last night. Fo' real. And I had to get up at 5...so the whole not sleeping thing was really pissing me off!
But I made it through the day, and it was a pretty good day really.
Working tomorrow again at ten til three. Hopefully a nice quiet Saturday! I wonder who I am on with.

In other exciting news, I really want to go to the hairdresser and get someone else to do my hair for once. Lately I've been cut/colour girl and I just do whatever I want to it, but I'm feeling like it's time to start seeing the professionals.
Uhuh...

Ok, so in the last week, actually, since Wednesday I have
a.)headbutted my cupboard shelf and caused my lip to bleed
b.)scratched my chin and...caused it to bleed
c.)poked myself in the eye whilst shampooing my hair, thus enjoying the pain of original poke-age and stinging of shampoo
d.)burnt all along my right thumb with my straightening iron.

I feel, all in all, I should be kept in a padded room.

Oh, ok so, I'm really liking that Pink song Who Knew.
I mean, I like the entire album, but something about the song and the filmclip too...I like a fairground.
Anywho...I made a simple banner header type thing from the filmclip.
It's actually the first banner thing I have made/used, so...if you feel so inclined, give me feedback!

I'm still tired.

Why does it always rain on me  
I am cold.

My parents have gone away. Just until Saturday I think it is. They've gone to Adelaide as Mum has osme course or meeting or something that she's going to.
So I have the house to myself...Well, other than the dog (who is currently snoring about a foot away from me.)
But it means making dinner just for me...I don't really like cooking just for one, so it will either end up being a sandwich or some kind of takeout. Because I am being lazy at the moment. And I'm cold.

Oh, I broke my phone earlier. The screen is basically not working and now it's not turning on at all. So, I'm using my old nokia (yay for nokia).
I think when I end up buying a new phone it will be a nokia. I do enjoy the nokia phones, so I might have to come to a decision and just get one!!!

And that is about all I am going to say...because I want some dinner...and I think my fingers are going to fall of.

Oh *points at moodtheme* (yeah, I changed it again...but Yay!!)

Well. Today.
Hm.

I got called into work for Friday and Saturday, so yay for that. I'm doing an early on Friday and 10-3 on Satuday! Super!

I made a quick trip to the shops and got mum some shoes...but they're too big (even though she specified that she wanted that size...so I'm going ot return them tomorrow. Maybe I'll just exchange them and get myself a pair for when we go out on the 10th!
I also bought some cute earrings and this green necklace. And a magazine. D'oh.

That's about all I did today, you know other than day to day monotonous things, like making the bed and putting the dishes away...and laundry.

Anywho, that's my exciting news!

movies and mumbling  
I can't wait to see A Scanner Darkly! WoooOooo....

Yes. And, I actually wouldn't mind seeing Fast & The Furious 3: Tokyo Drift. (Mainly for the Tokyo Drift part...oh and Lucas Black.)

I watched this E! special the other night about new release movies and now I can't remember any of them.

Er. I'm still looking for a phone. I don't know what to get, and i'm not going to just jump into it as soon as I see a cute one this time. I'm researching and shit. (omg, right!)
So, if you have any recommendations for me, I would love to hear them!!!

I can't believe the weekend is over. Hmph, where did that go!

In other news...my hands are cold.

On that note, I bid you adieu!

maybe i'll stop...  
I like to update for no reason.

So, I went and changed my layout colours yet again. Changed some text sizing and what not. Maybe I'll stop now.

I should also stop looking at phones, dying my hair, staying up late, buying nutella (omg, never!) and spending so long in the shower. However, these are things that I do not see happening anytime soon.

Ahohnogoddamnit...I forgot to watch House. *sobs*

Can't wait until June 10th. It's our next going out night.
I like this whole planning a night out thing, it makes it more fun that if we just went out every weekend. And, plus, if we did go out every weekend, this being Whyalla, we'd be going to the same place...every week. (It gets old, trust me!)

It was really cold this morning. Actually it's really cold right now too.

But this morning I went to move the cars in the driveway so my mum could get out and the rollerdoor wouldn't work properly (it's a sonofabitch most of the time-especially in any extremes of weather.) And I was in my pjs freezing my ass off, abusing the rollerdoor, trying to get my dog to stop barking (and therefore causing all of the other dogs in the neighbourhood to start yapping away) all before 5am!
Exciting huh!

in a nutshell  
Ok, so in a nutshell....

I think I might buy a new phone, certain people piss me off, I <3 the Office more and more every day, I need to go to the hairdresser, my hands are cold, I hate the fact that I have a huge dvd collection but don't feel like watching any of them, I read too many magazines and I need to find a good book to read!

How exciting. I don't really have much in the way of any news at all...But, just thought I would point out those few things.
The new phone thing is becoming an obsession, trying to find the best price and comparing phones and...yeah, I am getting slightly obsessed.

Oh, and i don't understand why channel ten has decided not to air any American Idol at all...none...I've had to watch E! to see what's going on...I don't get it at all...We've had it every other year! Stupid channel ten! *Gripe gripe gripe*
