| I have been
Actually, I've been getting a life. Have a wonderful new b/f who I'm planning on moving in with at the end of the year.
Have attended the wonderful Tabula Rasa James Marsters convention ... yummmy.
But I'm beginning to think that I'm doomed to never see a Saturday morning of a Cora-con :)
Last year I had food poisoning, this year I was standing on the side of a road in orange overalls, holding a tarp around the corpse of a 16-yr-old dead, drunken driver. Idiot. Unlucky for me the pager went off @ 5am, way before the time my friend was going to cover me for the day. He did turn up to cover me for the rest of the job, so I missed the lovely job of re-arranging the corpse so that the kid's parents could say "goodbye" to him. Meh. I can still see his face - early morning the eyes were closed, but they opened up throughout the day... Needless to say, I didn't go to the BDU Uber-meet and watch all the kids go get rotten drunk. Didn't want to see any other drunk 16-yr-olds. Or 18-yr-olds. Or anyone young.
My new boi is wonderful, he's renovating his house for me. It looks kinda like "the block" at the moment - upstairs has no floor, but he's finished the downstairs office (currently bedroom), mini-kitchen and bathroom. Yay.
Anyhooows, have a great week everyone.
(can you tell I'm procrastinating cleaning the house? Actually, tidying, cause the housekeeper's coming tomorrow.)

| Saw her again tonight. Not as big as last night, last night she was huge.
Full and pregnant, her belly swelling as she drank of the sky. It was as if she arose from the sea of clouds and then spilled her life-seed back into the sky below.
I have to stop whenever I see her, she mesmerises me. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| 1.Take your livejournal username and replace each letter with the corresponding number (a=1, b=2, etc.). If your name contains numbers, break them up into 2-digit numbers and a 1-digit number, if necessary. pittyblueflower = 16+9+20+20+25+2+12+21+5+6+12+15+23+5+18
2. Add all of the numbers together. 209
3. Find the post of this number in your livejournal. If you don't have that many posts, add the digits together. Keep doing so until the number is smaller than your pathetic number of posts. A GREEN Dragon Lies Beneath
4. Take first digit of the number from step 2, and count that many words into the post. Inner
5. Use the resulting word in a google image search, and select the first picture from the first page. mech-inner.jpg | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |

| I get it.
I see how the ancients believe in dragons and other creatures.
Last full moon, I was driving home, and I saw a dragon in the sky. Its mouth was open, its eye blinking as I sped away from it. It followed me across the sky in its majesty.
ahhh, the pleasures of the moon and a single cloud.
You know, when I was on the plane, I looked across the tarmac and saw the moonrise, over the mountains. It was majestic, my breath stopped as I sent her a message from my heart.
Then the plane took off, and again, I saw the moonrise. This time, she rose above the clouds, free from the smog and pollutants of the city. I see the moon, and she sees me. Somehow, when I see her, I feel at peace, I feel complete. | comments: Leave a comment  |

| ok well, i'm back. god knows why, but here i am.
somehow its comforting to be typing here with my cat curled up asleep on the monitor. Least now ONE room in the house (other than the bathroom & laundry) is fulfilling its purpose of existance.
Still need a new HDD.
Actually, for a while ther, I was going well. I was exercising every day. Now I've moved house, I haven't been to the gym since. Isn't that an achievement. Plus have put weight back on. Oh yay me.
Anyhows, time to pretend I want to be at work and stuff, should do the dishes before I go, but that's just too much bother. Wonder if I can get my email working? | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |

Why do people say stuff online that they would not say to your face? Why would they swear online, but when you're sitting with them, they either say "kaz, block ur ears for a sec" or "sorry kaz" directly afterwards? I don't get it.
OK, I get freedom of speech - I mean, LJ is a huge freedom of speech. And I choose not to read those LJ's (or books, or articles, reviews etc) that have heaps of swearing in them, because it offends me.
But a public room, should have standards. Especially when that room has been around a long, long time. And its a public "face" of an organisation, or whatever.
God knows why I'm writing this. But I am. | comments: Leave a comment  |

ok, i confess, i couldn't help but chose "canada" as my weapon ... and i work for telstra, not AOL. But I guess Telstra is the aussie equivalent, right?

| I particularly like the last sentence.
FAIRY TALE nce upon a time there has a young BUILDER named BRIAN. He was TODAY SASHAYING in the SHINY forest when he met ORANGE DANNY, a run-away WHORE from the FLUFFY Queen MADONNA.
BRIAN could see that ORANGE DANNY was hungry so he reached into his DISC CASE and give him his SHARP TOFU. ORANGE DANNY was thankful for BRIAN's TOFU, so he told BRIAN a very NEKKID story about Queen MADONNA's daughter MICHELE. How her mother, the FLUFFY Queen MADONNA, kept her locked away in a CHURCH protected by a gigantic UNICORN, because MICHELE was so PURPLE. BRIAN SLOTHED. He vowed to ORANGE DANNY the WHORE that he would save the PURPLE MICHELE. He would HUG the UNICORN, and take MICHELE far away from her eveil mother, the FLUFFY Queen MADONNA, and SCREAM her. Then, all of the sudden, there was a LOUD TORNADO and ORANGE DANNY the WHORE began to laugh. With a puff of smoke he turned into the gigantic UNICORN from his story. FLUFFY Queen MADONNA CLOSED out from behind a COFFEE CUP and struck BRIAN dead. In the far off CHURCH you could hear a PIN DROPPING. THE END.

 i tend to speak in riddles, and getting a straight answer out of me is indeed a notable moment. while i may act a little crazy, i am actually quite lucid and tend to be the voice of reason. my sanity is in a good balance with my insanity.
how mad are you?

| Well.
Today, I am going to find a house. Yep. Somewhere to live in ...
but first I need a UBD. Oh, no I don't ... I need a Melways. It's the small things that make me miss brissie the most.
- Potato Scallops. They're actually called potato cakes down here. I have heaps of problems in fish & chip shops.
- Airconditioning. Melbournians all have it ... they wonder why people in QLD don't. Which brings me to ...
- Building sites. They get to go home if it hits 35 deg. Gawd, nothing would get done back home !!!
- Schools. Same stupid thing, but its 38deg there.
- Drivers. Haven't they ever heard of stopping for a red light? Sick of hearing screeching behind me when I slow for the amber, and stop for the red.
- Road markings. Subtle but different. Like, pedestrian crossings don't have a broken line down here. And down at Phillip Island, there are blue lines in the road and an enigmatic sign reading "blue lines not in use". Still trying to work that one out.
- Roofs. They don't have flat ones.

| ... is good. Went walking with Siobahn and my two dogs. Man but they annoy the crap out of me together. Buffy decided to be scared when she was on the train platform (walking the Warburton trail, old railway line. disused platform still there) and then decided to chase bicycles. Didn't even look at them when she was on the leash. After a couple of k's, came up with the idea of attaching buffy to rex. hehehee damn funny. until they tried to trip me. but i didn't have to worry about the silly dog.
Need to walk faster on walks, barely broke a sweat. But its a lovely ritual. Maybe I should jog or summat, although my knee was hurting as I walked up the last hill (to Siobahn's house).
MMmmmm, salad for lunch (again). Nice mix actually (if I do say so myself!!) - boiled egg slices, tin of sweet chilli tuna slices, couple of olives, chunks of cheese, some sprout mix, cashews, mesculin mix, red onion, mushrooms. There's some leftover, lunch tomorrow ;)
This afternoon will be a bbq - flathead (um my only memories of flathead is one I caught, and the stench when I cut into the brain by accident - it turns my tummy just to think of flathead) and prawns. Watching a div @ a mate's place after the bbq.
Sleeping a lot better - its still short, but its deeper. Wonder why? Wish I didn't wake up at 7:30 this morning tho :)
But I dutifully got up and stuff.
OMG and yeah - a movie best classed as "interesting" is "once upon a time in mexico" Saving grace is Johnny Depp. If it wasn't for him, I prolly wouldn't have stayed for the whole movie ...
mmm, johnny depp. Could even see a little edward scissorhands coming through ... the character that is .. anyhows, wait for it to screen on teev.
on the other hand, i didn't actually realise that most of the movie was in spanish and there were subtitles until I got home!
adios, bbq time. | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |

|  Night Walker, the second class of vampire. You are depressive and introverted, making it hard to reach you. Your servants are very few, because you do not like to take prisoners. Your powers are comprised of shadow magic. You are lonely deep down inside, but won't let others see your true self. You should try to open up more often.
