Who Dat, Where Dat?

2007-09-10T07:34:00.000+10:00

Whoa such a long time since I have been here. For that I are very sorry.

Firstly, to all those who have enquired, yes I am very much still alive (sorry to all those who were hoping otherwise :P) Have been run off my feet with work and life in general. And speaking of general, many of you will not know that Picard now has a boyfriend, Loki's younger brother Sparrow..................................... Handsome aint he!

Poor little blighter will only eat 1 specific seed, hulled Oats, which means that I had a very long a tedious task of converting him to eat other more interesting things. So far that list includes, broccoli, corn, toast, cheese, silver beet, and pretty much, whatever I am eating! Though that means that most of the time, he can not eat what I am eating.

Life in general is damn good. It seems that I have made it through Winter without the usual amounts if flu and other 'wintry not so goodies sicknesses' And with that, I and my wallet are most very grateful! And with Spring now upon us, I get to see if I have also managed somehow to avert the annual festival of Hay fever! This should prove to be very interesting, and no-doubt entertaining.

Work, ah let's see, work, is well, work like! Nah seriously, work is great. Busy, and also entertaining.
There is a new development happening at the Hobart Airport (many of you will know about this, well those of you in Oz that is) For those of you who don't basically it is going to be, a 78 room hotel, Harvey Norman (electrical Store) K & D (hardware store) though why anyone visiting Tasmania would need to buy things from a hardware store, that is unless they are going to pull a Jet Li (watch Romeo Must Die) then I can fully understand why the government is putting one in. There will all so be a DFO (direct factory outlet) like the ones in Melbourne and Sydney. Yes, Us, Poor little left out Tassie, is FINALLY getting a DFO.
Anyway the point of telling you all of that, is that Work has, it would seem, managed to be elected to build and Manage, the WWTP (waste water treatment plant) that needs to be built to handle all the err well shit 'n' stuff that all these new stores will produce. So that is quite a nice little 2.2 million dollar project that should keep us somewhat rather busy for quite a while.

My love life you ask? Well Adrian and I are still very much together, and things are going Fanfuckingtastic! And that is all I am going to tell you. (ha bet you thought I were going to go into detail didn't ya, well :P TOUGH, I don't wanna tell you pervs nothing! Just use your imagination!! And with Adrian arriving on Friday Night, i are sure imaginations will be running wild!

Family, yes they are all so going well, Though yesterday I got the sad news that my brothers dog Squeak had to be put down as she was very, very sick, poor thing had liver cancer. RIP widdle Squeaky, I are going to miss havin you stick your nose in my pockets looking for kibbles.
Still on the topic of my brother, he and his wife bec, are expecting their first child in November, (yes people that's right I are going to be an Aunt!!!) Most people in the family know the sex of the baby, all cept for dad, as he did not want to know, which is fair enough, wants to be surprised!! Soooooooooo that means that I 'anit going to tell you! you will just have to wait till I gets some cute pics of said new niece or nephew. Once again I go :P
The renovation of the parentals back yard is progressing very nicely. Looks good to. I should have got some 'before' pics, ahh well you will just have to make do with the 'after' pics when it is finished.

Friends, well now, Anita and Dave are getting Married January, next year. I am a bridesmaid, yes people I am wearing a dress, makeup and will look, and behave like a lady. Should make for an interesting blog post! Not to mention the Hen's night, now that'll be one hell of a post!
Joey's new beau Brian has moved from Launceston to Hobart to be with her, they are now livin together.
And to be honest, I have not seen much of anyone else of late, due to my being insanely busy.

Well that about wraps things up, I better go do some work.

Pictures of Loki

2006-12-10T13:09:00.000+11:00

Loki meet world, world meet Loki :P

Lookit I'm BAAAACK!!!

2006-12-04T12:04:00.000+11:00

Ok so after a fairly lengthy absence, and receiving several emails, and calls regarding my health and safety................no I am not Broken...............*does a quick once over and pat down............nope all assembled and non broken. I am back.

Things have been rather hectic for me of late, with the moving of ones office from Moonah to Salamanca, Christmas preparations, Ant invasions and Hand raising a baby cockatiel.

Mum's Cockatiels outside, decided that it was rather cold, and instead of purchasing a T.V like any normal animal would do, they though it would be a much better idea to get down and funky with their bad selves..........................and around 30 days later, there are 4 very nekked and very cute babies in the nesting box. One, was booted from the nest and subsequently died. And then there were 3. Now, as the process goes, the parent birds were feeding and warming and giving the general care to their young as they should, BUT somewhere along the line, something went wrong and they stopped feeding them, and even when to the extreme of booted one baby out.

So mum gave one baby to a friend who is currently raising and looking after that baby. And upon a successful completion of getting the bird to eat seed, will keep the bird as her own. That leaves 2 right?

So with birds 1 and 2, also known as Sparrow and Loki this is the story.

Once inside mum began the tedious task of feeding Sparrow and Loki with special bird raising formula and a spoon. This was going well until Loki got really, really sick. Enter Mel with her massive amounts of information on Birds. Upon my arrival, Loki looked bad, Laying on his side and he could not sit up, wheezing and shivering. Mum had come to the conclusion that Loki would be dead by the end of the day. But I was dammed if I was going to give up. Enter the hot water bottle. Snuggled against my chest, wrapped in towels and heated by the hot water bottle, Loki started to improve a little. A trip to James Harris the avian vet in Sandy Bay and a great several $$ later, it was concluded that Loki did not have any illness, no bacteria or infection, the vet came to the conclusion that Loki could have a developmental problem which could be hindering his well development. It would seem that sue to this problem Loki was starved, and malnourished.

With the purchase of a heat pad and smaller 'hospital' cage, some tender Levin care and being fed every 3 hours Loki was well on the way to recovery.

Now in order to administer these feeds every 3 hours, little Loki has been coming to work with me...................Yes people, C. Johnstone and Associates now has a mascot!!
The guys at work find it all rather amusing, on the first day I had Loki here, a client arrived to collect some plans, he was rather surprise to find the office manager (that'd be me) talking on the phone whilst feeding Loki. Clint then replied, Hi and welcome to CJA Engineers and Vetenary services!! And seeing as how I feed Loki in the lunch room, this just seems to amuse them further! *shrug

No I have taken some pics of Loki and will post them soon.

Today Loki is investigating the seed and water containers in his cage. He is whistling and tweeting often and trust me when I say, My god he's so cute!!

Now by all means Loki is not 'out of the woods yet' we still need to get him off the formula and onto eating seed and things. He has also managed to hurt his foot and has an appointment with the vet this afternoon.

Now as for Sparrow, he/she is well and has had no problems at all, and Sparrow goes to a new home after christmas as he/she has been promised to friends of Mum and Dad's. As for Loki, after all this time and lovin, he is staying with us, well with mum to be exact, (unfortunately I don't have the room for another bird otherwise Loki would be heading home with me!) We just don't want to run the risk of selling him to someone and have them not look after him properly. So, move over Monty, Carlo and Pie, LOKI is in the house!!

So that people is why I have been AWOL!!

Now onto christmas things. Adrian gets back from his Darwin/Christmas Island Navy trip on the 17th of December so I am going to say right now, there will be no updates over christmas!!

The slow but steady invasion of ants that I have been having over the past few weeks will come to an abrupt end as I have arranged for an exterminator to well come exterminate them!! *insert EVIL laugh here* Little fuckers.

And that people is what I call and update of massive proportions. I hope that this will suffice and keep you all happy and content for a while as I am not sure when I'll be able to do another update, (other than posting pics of Loki)

Home Again, Home Again Tiddly Pom

2006-10-03T10:33:00.000+11:00

Well folks, I is back from Sydney.

Fun was had, Zoo was seen, and Otters are shy and swim/waddle away when you try and takes a photo of them. (Little buggers)

I shall at some point up load the zoo pics. Can't right now too tired, must sleep and stuff.

On a side note this is my 100th Post, errr, ahhh W00T, Yay and other joyous discripting words.

Adrian is going away on the 9th of October for two months to Perth (insert sad pouty face here) On the up side he will be here for 4 glorious weeks over Christmas. (insert huge happy grin and a little happy dance here)

Spanky Pants is off to Melbourne on Thursday so at some point I gotta take my suitcase over to her place (ooops better make sure I unpack it first huh) and then cos I am such a nice person I am also driving her to the airport.

- Melody

ahh yes more laughs

2006-09-29T11:12:00.000+10:00

Ok so I lied when I said that that my previous post today was all I was posting.
Someone emailed me these pics at work a little while ago.

The email was titled 'Why English Teachers are Needed So Urgently In Japan!

Sydney Here I Come

2006-09-29T08:30:00.000+10:00

Well today is the day............FINALLY *clears throat *Sings; All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go.......................'

Just gotta make it through a few hours of work, (managed to scam a few hours off with pay!! OH YEA!!)
Picard is at the Parentals, took her up there Thursday night, little bugger was havin so much fun teasin Carlo, (well more like flashin her butt at him) that she did not notice that I had left! Which is good I suppose, less stress for her. When I got home the house was sooo empty with Picard gone. *sigh not little chirps, no loud, "mummy you're home let me out NOW' squawks.

Well that is about it for today, and the weekend, you'll have to wait till tuesday to get the details and pics etc. Hope you all have a good weekend.

Funny, Funny, Ha, Ha

2006-09-28T08:30:00.000+10:00

A teacher is explaining biology to her 4th grade students. "Human beingsare the only animals that stutter", she says. A little girl raises her hand.

"I had a kitty-cat who stuttered", she volunteered. The teacher, knowing how precious some of these stories could become, asked the girl to describe the incident.

"Well", she began, "I was in the back yard with my kitty and the rottweiler who lives next door got a running start and before we knew it, he jumped over the fence into our yard!""That must've been scary", said the teacher.

"It sure was", said the little girl. "My kitty went 'Fffff, Fffff,Fffff'... and before he could say "Fuck," the rottweiler ate him!"

How to save the Airlines

2006-09-25T13:53:00.000+10:00

This was sent to me at work today;

HOW TO SAVE THE AIRLINES

Dump the male flight attendants. No one wanted them in the first place.
Replace all the female flight attendants with good-looking strippers! What the hell -- They don't even serve food anymore, so what's the loss? The strippers would at least triple the alcohol sales and get a "party atmosphere" going in the cabin. And, of course, every businessman in this country would start flying again, hoping to see naked women.

Because of the tips, female flight attendants wouldn't need a salary, thus saving even more money. I suspect tips would be so good that we could charge the women for working the plane and have them kickback 20% of the tips, including lap dances and "special services."

Muslims would be afraid to get on the planes for fear of seeing naked women. Hijackings would come to a screeching halt, and the airline industry would see record revenues.

This is definitely a win-win situation if we handle it right -- a golden opportunity to turn a liability into an asset.Why didn't Bush think of this?! Why do I still have to do everything
myself?

Sincerely,

Danny Johnson

Oh and before you all ask, I have no idea who Danny Johnson is.

Well what do ya know......I have Talent

My Spleen

2006-09-12T12:38:00.000+10:00

Ok I found this rather amusing, so much so I laughed so hard I hurt my squiggly spooge :P

http://funnyjunk.com/pages/backstreet.htm/

Oh and this;
Some examples of why the human race has probably evolved as far as possible. These are actual instruction labels on consumer goods...

- On Sears hairdryer:Do not use while sleeping.(Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)
- On a bag of Fritos:You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.(The shoplifter special!)
- On a bar of Dial soap:Directions: Use like regular soap.(and that would be how?)
- On some Swann frozen dinners:Serving suggestion: Defrost.(But it's 'just' a suggestion!)
- On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: (printed on bottom of the box)Do not turn upside down.(Too late! you lose!)
- On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:Product will be hot after heating.(Are you sure? Let's experiment.)
- On packaging for a Rowenta iron:Do not iron clothes on body.(But wouldn't that save more time?)(Whose body?)
- On Boot's Children's cough medicine:Do not drive car or operate machinery.(We could do a lot to reduce the construction accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)
- On Nytol sleep aid:Warning: may cause drowsiness.(One would hope!)
- On a Korean kitchen knife:Warning: keep out of children.(hmm...something must have gotten lost in the translation...)
- On a string of Christmas lights:For indoor or outdoor use only.(As opposed to use in outer space.)
- On a food processor:Not to be used for the other use.(Now I'm curious.)
- On Sainsbury's peanuts:Warning: contains nuts.(but no peas?)
- On an American Airlines packet of nuts:Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.(somebody got paid big bucks to write this one...)
- On a Swedish chainsaw:Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands.(Raise your hand if you've tried this...)
- On a child's Superman costume:Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.(Oh go ahead! That's right, destroy a universal childhood belief.)

Stoopid people should be steralized and prohibited to breed.

Let's go shopping

Got a joke for ya

2006-09-11T11:14:00.000+10:00

So there's this fella with a parrot. And this parrot swears like a sailor - I mean he's a pistol. He can swear for 5 minutes straight without repeating himself. Trouble is, the guy who owns him is a quiet, conservative type, and this bird's fowl mouth is driving him crazy.One day, it gets to be too much, so the guy grabs the bird by the throat, shakes him really hard, and yells, "QUIT IT!". But this just makes the bird mad and he swears more than ever.
Then the guy gets mad and says, "OK for you!" and locks the bird in a kitchen cabinet.

This really aggravates the bird and he claws and scratches, and when the guy finally lets him out, the bird cuts loose with a stream of invective that would make a veteran sailor blush.At that point, the guy is so mad that he throws the bird into the freezer.
For the first few seconds there is a terrible din. The bird kicks and claws and thrashes. Then it suddenly gets_very_quiet.At first the guy just waits, but then he starts to think that the bird may be hurt. After a couple of minutes of silence, he's so worried that he opens up the freezer door.
The bird calmly climbs onto the man's out-stretched arm and says, "Awfully sorry about the trouble I gave you. I'll do my best to improve my vocabulary from now on.".The man is astounded. He can't understand the transformation that has come over the parrot. Then the parrot says, "By the way, pardon me for asking, but what did the chicken do?".

Who wants a Roll?

2006-09-11T08:45:00.000+10:00

So after recovering from a nasty dose of food poisoning (which we think was caused by the TUNA, so alas there will now no longer be room making for the tuna) which resulted in two days off work and 4 seasons of Will and Grace to pass the time, things are back to normal. What ever the hell normaml is. And all traces of TUNA have been removed from the house. At this point cup cakes and Tacos are still fine.

When I grows up I wanna be just like Karen from Will and Grace. I am already a portion of the way there with my unnatural love of all things vodka, short skirts, attitude and boobs!!

Penis Roll anyone?

Like Banjos and Bakers Delight have/make/sell rolls like this :P

So my weekend was rather uneventfull. Though hearing about Joel's (we shall call it intersting) comings and goings for the weekend passed were amusing and quite entertaining. Lets see, he lost his mobile phone, but not before sending out random sms to people, including one number that he did not recognise. He asked Adrian to call this mysterious number but alas his phone was not up to the challenge. Then Joel asked me to call the number, which I did (mainly cos I wanted the first hand knowledge of who the hell it was) so dial I did. And wouldn't you know it, I asked for Sarah and got JOEY!!!! yes the ever loveable, bouncey highy chirpy and cheery Joselle. (you big girl Joel)

Adrian will be here on Wednesday!! Yes people I gets a whole 4 days of Sailor action this week!! There will be the usual happenings, drinking, dancin, friends, dinner, drinking, err drinking, did I mention drinking?

Picard had a rather eventful weekend; she would take sunflower seeds from her food cup at one end of her cage, and run (sorry waddle) with it to the other side of the cage and offer it to the little bird in the mirror. But when this little bird did not accept her gracious offering she dropped the seed and attacked the other bird for refusing her offer. Now this happend a few time to the extend that when I walked past the cage there was a little pile of sunflower seeds under the mirror and a very discruntled Picard wantin some lovin!! poor little buggar was very upset and had to be consoled by me with scritches and kisses.

There is the possiability of another update tomorrow, depends on if the world ends or not.

Proud to be an Aussie?

2006-08-17T16:59:00.000+10:00

Being Australian is about driving in a German car to an Irish pub for A Belgian beer, then travelling home,grabbing an Indian curry or a Turkish kebab on the way, to sit on Swedish furniture and watch American shows on a Japanese TV.

Oh and......

Only in Australia ... can a pizza get to your house Faster than an ambulance.
Only in Australia ... do supermarkets make sick people walk all the Way to the back of the shop to get thei prescriptions while healthy People can buy cigarettes at the front.
Only in Australia ... do people order double cheeseburgers, large Fries and a DIET coke.
Only in Australia ... do banks leave both doors open and chain the Pens to the counters.
Only in Australia ... do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars on the drive and lock our junk and cheap lawn mower in the garage.
Only in Australia ... do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place.
Only in Australia ... are there disabled parking places in front of a skating rink.
NOT TO MENTION...
* 3 Aussies die each year testing if a 9v battery works on their tongue.
* 142 Aussies were injured in 1999 by not removing all pins from new shirts.
* 58 Aussies are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of screwdrivers.
* 31 Aussies have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the fairy lights were plugged in.
* 8 Aussies had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth.
* A massive 543 Aussies were admitted to Emergency in the last two years after opening bottles of beer with their teeth.

*insert HORNS here

Well now, this weekend is shaping up to be freckin HUGE!!

Adrian arrives on Friday (SQUEEEEEEE) Alcoholic Consumption on Saturday Night, and massive amounts of errrr, ummmmm FUN (giggles)

Miss Spanky and I are going to drink ourselves through the entire list of Shots at Irish, for memory there are about 10-15 (I think) Last time we did a damn fine job of getting about half way through. This time there are no excusses, Spanky, its all or NONE!!!

As stated in the previous posts comment I was informed lastnight that The Pretender has indeed arrived *dances like a monkey

I also went a little crazy online today and brough Picard some prezzies!!! They should arrive in about 5 days (from the glorious USA)

- Melody

What do you do with a Drunken Sailor?

2006-08-03T12:03:00.000+10:00

You shagg him till morning and then some more!!!!

7 Days till Adrian is here

Hey Diddle Diddle,

Sup? and all other manner of speakings that means stuff!

Just purchased the all mighty and powerful Voot Cruiser (see previous post!) It should be flying into my possesion within the nest 2 weeks. I was also informed by one Joel, that The Pretender should be here shortly. (yes Spanky you are the first to borrows it)

Did the funniest thing yesterday, and I am not entirly sure how I did it. Went alittle something likes this;

Adrian sent me a message, to which I replied and sent to whom I thought was Adrian. Turned out that I actually sent it to Jim, (Spanky Pants'es significant Other) OOOOPS!!
After much gigglin (mainly done by me) I managed to send the right messages to the right people and continue both conversatiobs without mixing messages again!

For all those keeping count, Picard has now laid 6 eggies. Silly birdie actually thinks that Percival, (her swing with which she has 'relations') (yes, I named her swing) is going to 'do his part' and have some adverse effect on the eggs.

So I then rang mum, to tell her that I was hard boiling one of Picards eggs in the vain attempt to get her to stop laying. (now the size of Picards eggs are some what small, Imagine a large pot with an egg the size of one of those solid cadbury chocolate easter eggs) that is what I was boiling. Needless to say I think she wants me committed!! :P

Thats about it.

Been busy at work.

Adrian will be here on Friday for the weekend. And there will also be a trip to the movies to see the new Pirates movie. Yes I have not been yet!! Why you ask, cos i wanted to see it with Adrian so I was a good girl and avoided all temptaion (mainly Joel asking me everyother day when I was going to see it) and others saying that it's a great movie and that I should see it. Well EVERYONE STFU I am going to see it Saturday (HAPPY NOW??) :P

mmmmm trys to think what else has happend........................................................................................
Ohh I gots a new Invader Zim action figure yesterday;

Nothing Exciting - Just an update

2006-07-03T14:29:00.000+10:00

So the past week went by uneventfully.

My weekend was rather quiet,
Champaine Breakfast and pampering at my sisters saturday morning, shopping with Jackie in the arvo, then party at her place saturday night.

As I was driving I was being very good and not participating in the drunken festivities. It was quiet entertaing to watch my sister, Jim and their friends doing their drunken behaviour things!!
Singstar was sung and won by various people, including a duet by Jackie and myself!! We rocked the lounge!!

Sunday I washed a VERY DIRTY nova, she was very appreciative.
Watched a few movies, and went to the gym.

That people was my weekend.

And yes I know I am yet to upload the 'Birthday Celebration' Pics, and i'll do that shortly.

- Melody

Birthday Celebrations

2006-06-26T09:25:00.000+10:00

So this weekend,

Friday;
Picked Adrian up from the airport.

Saturday;
Started with Pancakes, Strawberries and Cream!!
Visited Family, mine and Adrian's
Dinner at the Parentals, and a somewhat subdued and non filth related dinner conversation. There was Roast Sheep and Cow, a Tart, (other than me) Jackie made a Lemon Tart which from what I heard was very nice. Apple crumble, whipped cream that was not really whipped, something when wrong in the whipping process and mum said 'fuck it' near enough is good enough!!

Then there was the dinner plate debarcle, it turned out that Jackie and I ended up with each other's plates, we discovered this when Jackie said, damn it wheres the sheep, (she had sheep and cow, I just had Cow) we came to the conclusion that is was a good thing that Jakcie and I eat in the same order, Peas and carrots first, pumpkin then parsnip, meat and lastly the roast spuds.
So after consuming each others peas and carrots and quick pass around of the plates a giggle or two and we were back to the eating!

Once departing the parentals there was a quick diversion to collect Joel then it was back to my place for the birthday drinking and general drunken behavour.

The drinking kicked off at 9 and ended somewhere around the 2.30 sunday morning area. In attendance were; Anita, Dave, Joey, Joel, Jackie, Adrian and Me. With a fridge full of booze, music provided by the lovely nita (thanks!!) playin on the music playin machine the fun began.

See Joel got me a pair of knickers for my birthday - (Pics of 'lil sis modeling them later!) they seemed to keep people entertain for quite some time. (people are strange!) then it was onto Twister, for the record, much more fun when alcohol has been consumed!

With several shots of various flavours consumed, things were going well. Joel somehow managed to wet his pants, or so he exclaimed, 'Joey bumped me and I spilt my drink' all over his manly parts, (pics of Joel modleing his 'wet patch' later)

Joey was the only sober one as she was driving, and somehow was the only one to fall over her own feet, dave remarked, 'and this is the one driving us drunk people home!!' After fits of giggles and regaining ones breathing it was off to attack the fridge for more Vodka.

Thanks to everyone for pressies;

Sunday;
After no sleep after people left at 2.30 I cleaned the house, (without wakin Adrian or Jackie who was stayin in my spare room)
The proceeded to test out Nita and Dave's pressie on the couch and watch some FarScape.
Poke my head in on Jackie at 8.30 ish and then snuggled into bed with Adrian.
Around 12ish took Jackie home, then headed to mum's to get Picard who stayed there the night. Settled her in at home then more snugglin with Adrian.
Then at around 6ish it was off to the Airport with sadness.

Adrians B'day 26 June
My B'day 27 June

And that people was my weekend.

Gir, Why is there BACON in the Soap

2006-05-29T08:11:00.000+10:00

3 and a bit days till an entire week with Adrian :)

So this weekend was fanfuckintastic.

Adrians flight got in on time and at 7pm, way earlier than usual flights, so there was a little more time.
Saturday there was dinner at the parentals, which inculded Dad's home made port, very, very, NICE.
Sunday saw Adrian departing at 7pm, and me attending Joel's Birthday dinner at Hog's Breath. That was rather enjoyable, others there inculded, Nita, Dave, John, Jim (AKA Larry) Joey, Simon, Thug, myself and of course Joel.

Just have to make it through this week..............................

And to Joel

For today :P

- Melody

To make Room for the TUNA :P

2006-05-24T13:07:00.000+10:00

2 Days till Adrian is here for the weekend

7 Days till he's here for a WEEK!!

Thats right people I get Adrian for and entire week. He managed to get leave from the 2 till the 12 of June, so I in turn got time off from my job, oddly enough the same dates (what a coincidence :P)
So far we have planned a trip to freycinet stayin at a Spa Suite (which I gotta book this weekend) we'll be up there few a couple of days. Nothing else is planned as yet, but the great thing about being on holidays is that you can do what you want when you want.

Alas Miss Picard can not go on holiday with us, so she will be attending her own holiday at mum's helping Monty, Pye, and Carlo trash the dinning room. Should prove to be a rather interesting few days at the parentals with 4 birds takin over the house.

- Melody

I Loveed U Piggie, Loveed U GOOOOOOOOOOD

2006-05-22T09:45:00.000+10:00

4 Days till Adrian gets here

So this weekend just gone prove to be rather average.

Friday night saw me at the movies with Jackie, Jim and Sarah (one of their house mates she works with sperm!!) no really she does, she gets couples preggers. I kid you not.
Anywho, we saw The Da Vinci Code. 2 and a half hours later my butt was numb and I was tired, but it was a good movie, (no I have not read the book, I own the book but that's as far as I got) Saw some really good previews for a change as well, I forsee that there will be many a trip to the cinema in my future.

Went to Joey's on Saturday Night, to celebrate her Birthday. Enjoyable fun was had, drunken antics were done, (for a change I was the sober one!!) Much wine was spilt on Joey's carpet, and of course it was Red Wine. There was also a rather decent amount of wine spilt on Siana.
I was caught up on the progress of Siana and Dan's wedding preparations. Also saw Siana's dress design, Looks Fab!!

Joey also made dinner, though Siana and I were the only ones that actually turned up in time for that. Brian was also there, and as he was stayin at Joey's it was a given that he was there on time for dinner! Which was by the way Chicken Pot Pie, and it was great, Nicely done Joey :P

So all in all a rather entertaining evening that was supposed to have movie watching, but alas once the wine started flowing that idea went right out the window.

Sunday was really quiet, spent most of in on the couch once I finally made it outta bed around 10.30 I really hate being sick. Picard was an angel, she spent most of the day snuggled under my chin, givin my kisses and chatterin quietly. I continued my Angel watchin, now I am up to season 3. Angel said one of my fave quotes while I was watchin yesterday....................................................

'I remember when a few bob got you a good meal, beer and a Tavern Wench'

I'm Dancin Like a MONKEY

2006-05-17T15:01:00.000+10:00

I did my dance of happy when I found out! And no, I shall not show you how that dance goes :P
To keep in with Blog tradition - 9 days till I gets to see my man.

Quiet Weekend

2006-05-15T07:42:00.000+10:00

Adrian is now officially in Sydney, which means I am now officially planning a trip to....................................................................................... Yup you guessed it SYDNEY.
(but not to see P. Sherman) Movie quote anyone??
Adrian and I have been together for 4 months and 11 days!!

Love you Hon. Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots :P

Well the weekend has come and gone, seems that it is never long enough anymore.
Saturday was an interesting and fun day. Started with a shopping trip into town with mum, (was her birthday on Friday)
Followed by dinner at the parentals to celebrate said birthday and mother's day (which was the sunday)
Now normally the dinner conversation begins somewhat civil and ends up in the gutter in some way shape or form but................................this time dinner was served a little late, as Jim (Sisters husband to be) didn't finish work till later) anywho some of us were gathered around the table, Anthony (brother) was 'carving' the roast and mother was 'supervising' and well seeing as there was no food to subdue the filthy conversation it started before the meal even made it to the table, now people that has got to be some kind of record! I was rather impressed. WELL DONE EVERYONE!! Stars across the board.

Sunday was rather uneventful, spent an hour or so at the gym, then proceeded to watch the Angel series so far I am up to Season 1 disk 5. (hey gimme a break only started at 2pm sunday :P)

oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIM for Friday 12 May (yes Jim and Mum have the same birthday!!)

Oh yeah I also got a 'sock' for my phone, to keep it warm on those long, cold winter nights!!

So nothing much has happen in the world of Mel this week.
Saturday will see me at the parentals for family stuffs.

Though starting next week thing should pick up; on the 16th it's Joey's Birthday. The 29th will see me celebrating Joel's Birthday, as far as I know he has something arranged for the weekend of the 27th/28th.

- Joel,
If by some chance Adrian is able to come down that weekend, you are just going to have to share me :P
So over the next two weeks there will be drinks aplenty and celebrations to boot. More on those when they happen.

The best thing was the fact that I got there at 9am, I was the only one there, I had the entire park to myself.

JULY 6 Here I come :P

Welcome to the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Garden

2006-05-04T09:01:00.000+10:00

Whatta ya know its Monday again :(

2006-05-01T14:59:00.000+10:00

Well the weekend is over and I really wish that it wasn't

FRIDAY
Thug's gathering was enjoyable, Vodka and Red Bull was had, and also Sambucca was had. Due to the taking of pain killers eariler on friday to numb the pain of the spot removal (see end of post for details) I was rather well 'happy' and a good time was had. That was until we got home and settled in for bed, and then it was all over red rover, no sleep and a very upset tummy that was payin me back for mixin alcohol and drugs (you'd think that i'd have learnt my lesson by now, but it seems NOT!!)

SATURDAY
After getting outta bed late in the morning, (wink, wink) there was a trip to Collinsvale to see Adrian's family, then it was off to Kerryne and Robs engagement party. Was a nice afternoon/evening. Left there at about 8pm, my stomach was still pissed at me from friday nights adventures.

SUNDAY
Woke up for breakfast, then it was back to bed till noonish, when lunch had and a movie, Serenity was watched. Not a bad movie really enjoyed it.
Then all to soon it was time to drive to the airport and watch as Jetstar took Adrian back to Victoria :(

Adrian moves to Sydney on the 12th. I have already looked at ticket prices for me to travel to Sydney, under $200.00 return!!
Not sure when we'll be seeing each other next, gotta wait and see how things are in Sydney before we can make any plans.

I predict that I'll be somewhat edgy and sad within 11 days, with the possiblity of wanting to cause physical damage!! But only a little bit :P
PEOPLE YOU"VE BEEN WARNED

SPOT REMOVAL
On Wednesday I had 1 of 2 moles removed. This one was located on my right arm right in the elbow joint. To remove this little spot, they used what one can only describe as an intrument that resembeled a cheese slicer. After injecting a local numbing agent they proceeded to slice the mole until it was removed. The end result was the mole gone but a hole in my arm that is almost twice the size that the mole was, that is refusing to heal and is collecting all kinds of fluff and god only knows what else.
The second mole was located on my left sholder. This was removed it an instrument that resembeld an apple corer. Once again after a local numbing agent was injected they placed the 'apple corer' over the spot, pushed down and twisted, as they twisted it cut into the skin and removed the mole. This way was much more nicer and is almost healed. Now this is the kicker, once both were removed they had to stop the bleeding, but why use stitches or a bandaid when you can BURN MY SKIN. Yes they purposly burnt me by useing some machine that effectivly had the same result as if you had just burnt yourself on a grill. Nothing like the smell of charred burnt skin to put you off your lunch. FANTASTIC
Everything was going fine untill the nice numbing stuff wore off then I felt like I had been sliced with a cheese slicer and cored with an apple corer. Funny that huh.

Today my shoulder is fine, little itchy but good. My arm on the other hand (no pun intended) is very sore and not healing well at all. OUCH. Doesn't look all that great either.

That about catches you up.

Easter Long Weekend

2006-04-18T07:52:00.000+10:00

Umm let's see, where to start. At the begining I suppose;

Thursday Night;
Picked Adrian up form the airport.
Give Adrian his surprise................................a slab of Coronas, and a 6 pack of Stella (what were you filthy buggers thinkin?)

Good Friday;
Started with a trip to Austins Ferry to Collect Joel, then onto Joey's for an Easter Bun morning tea/lunch, caught up with Joel, Anita, Dave, Joey and Brian (Joey's new fella!) There was warm buns, hot steaming muffins, foil egg wrapper throwing, chocolate egg throwing, easter egg eating, DvD stealing, and coffee. All this concluded at 2pm ish.
After dropping Joel home it was back to my place.

Watched a few movies, The Exorcism of Emily Rose, and The Cave. I then proceeded to prepare dinner!! Sweet and Sour Chicken, vegies and Rice.

Saturday;
Ahh lets see, we shall skip the morning and start at noon :P went into town to purchase a beanie, came back to Glenorchy for lunch, then headed to the parentals for pre planned boat stuffs with the newly acquired beanie!!
The boat in question was made by Dad, complete with, an eski storage device, comfort zones for fishing, room for enough beverages, and soon to have a BBQ!!!
We started at Prince of Wales Bay ended up at the Bridge Water Bridge then back to Prince Of Wales Bay. During this boat ride, there was wind, water spray, petrol fumes and somewhat understood conversation. Present were, Mum, Dad, Anthony, Jackie, Jim Adrian and Myself. A pleasent afternoon on the water.
Headed back to mums for warm beverages and film watching, though I had gained a nasty headache from inhaling the petrol fumes from the outboard motor, so Adrian and I bailed at 4ish so that I could sleep off set headache, and returing at 5.30 for dinner.
Dinner, Roast Cow, vegies and such. It took all of 5 minutes for the conversation to make it into the gutter with the singing of the 'Penis Song' from Monty Python. Then the singing of 'The internet is for porn' song, the one with the WoW characters doing the singing and dancing. Normal conversation was restored, but not for long.
Over all what passes for a 'normal' dinner was had!

Saturday Night;
Leaving the parentals at 8pm we headed to Anita's house warming. Sadly the drunken naked twister did not eventuate (maybe next party) Though an interesting time was had.
Take 1 Joel, + several beers, shake and allow to simmer and have drunken conversation. Then add hip flask of southern mix with coke and continue drinking until flask is empty = a very merry Joel with no more alcohol.

5 Coronas (Adrian) and 3 1/2 baccardi mixers (me) later it was 12.30 and people wanted to head out to town, so those people headed out, and Adrian and I went home.

Sunday;
Due to a zero tollerance law laid down by the police over the Easter Weekend, Adrian was unable to drive my car back (I was unable to, as I am on my P's and can not contain any alcohol in my system) So Sunday morning went back to Anita's to collect Nova (dirty hussy, soending the night away from home like that)
Then it was off to Collinsvale to catch up with Adrian's family. There was packing (for Adrian's move to sydney in a month) and WoW conversations.
I bailed around noon, had to check on Picard and do a few other things. Ended up takin a nap!! waking up in time to make it back to Adrian at around 3pm.
I watched the WoW playing (which was great, as I am soon to be in the WoW playing crowed) dinner was had and WoW playing continued. Adrian, Fez and Carissa were doing a Molten Core Run (sp?). There were two headed fire puppys (kinda cute) banishing, killing, evil nasty imps it was cool. At one point almost everyone doing the run (40 ish people) died, with only one priest let to resurect people.
The run started at around 4pm and ended around 9pm, for Adrian and I anyway, Fez and Carissa continued.

Monday;
argh Adrian's last day here :(
Staying in for most of the day. :P
Ventured out for lunch and a random walk through Target.
Watch a few movies, Wolf Creek, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and a few eps of Gilmore Girls.
Adrian's flight was delayed, which was fine with us, more time together!!

Hopefully he might be able to come back down in 2 weeks for Kerryne and Robs engagment gathering, (more on that later) So the count down could be on again in another few days!!

Today;
Woke up, and got ready for work.
Went to get my manditory OMFG it's cold hot chocolate only to discover that maccas has no power. Apparently most of Moonah had lost power due to some strong winds last night and early thismorning (I never heard anything)
So I am hot chocolate less.

*sigh and meh

- Melody

Today's the DAY!!

2006-04-13T09:47:00.000+10:00

12 Hours till I can see Adrian
7 Hours till I finish work

*yawns* So sleep last night was near impossiable, too many things running through my head (all good things mind you!! *wink) managed to nod off at 4am, next thing I know the alarm is going off with some chick screaming about how she wants someone or something (I believe it was a song of some description) and it's 6am, nothing like 2 hours of sleep to get you refreshed for a new day at work!!
The stupid chick on the radio would not shut up, so it was prolly time to get up. After using up all the hot water I figured it was time to get outta the shower!! A freezing shower on a 5 degree morning was/is not my idea of fun.
Then I started the mad dash to clean my house, do the final load of washing, so that I dont have to waste presious time this weekend doing housy cleaning crap.
Picard woke up after I hang out the washing so she gots cuddles and kisses while I dressed for work. Then it was out the door and off to work.
Now the amasing this is, I woke up at 6 - did 2 loads of washing, cleaned the bathroom, vaccumed, sorted out Picard, Dressed for work, and left at 7.30. Yes people I did all of that in an hour and a half!!!

Then I was driving to work, and the police had the street blocked off (not sure why, though living in Glenorchy, anything is possiable!!) so I had to take the long way to work, yet I still managed to arrive at work at the same time as if I had gone the short way. ODD

This day cant go any slower can it?

- Melody

Awwww You Threw off my GROOVE

2006-04-12T15:03:00.000+10:00

SQUEEEE just gotta make it through tomorrow, then 4 marvellous days of nothing but Adrian!!

Belly Dancing tonight with Joey should help with the distraction so that I dont go anymore stir crazy waiting for 10pm tomorrow night to arrive!!

Brought Twister today, so hopefully there shall be many a game of naked twister at nita's house warming on saturday night. Seeing as how when we played strip poker at my place last time, and Joel was the ONLY one that came anywhere near being naked, we shall ban him from playing twister, unless there is no chance of the removal of clothing.
Also got the merry making booze!! not all of it is for me *all knowing smile*

- Melody

Gettin Inked Again

2006-04-11T10:29:00.000+10:00

2 Days, so many hours and how ever many minutes to go!

Got to thinkin today, going to book in for my next tattoo next week. I had thought about waiting a while longer, *shrugs* why wait the sooner I get this one, the sooner I can figure out my next one!
I have 'Evil' on my left wrist and 'horny desirous of sexual activity' shall be going on my right wrist.

Ladies and Gentlemen may I introduce, 'Horny'

I think this day is going slow on purpose. Now that is just mean.

- Melody

Quite Funny and Somewhat Entertaining

2006-04-10T13:50:00.000+10:00

This was sent to me today, I found it amusing thought I'd share it;

After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humour. Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by Qantas' pilots (marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance engineers.

By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never, ever, had an accident.

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.

P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.

P: Something loose in cockpit.
S: Something tightened in cockpit.

P: Dead bugs on windshield.
S: Live bugs on back-order.

P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent.
S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.

P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
S: Evidence removed.

P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
S: DME volume set to more believable level.

P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
S: That's what friction locks are for.

P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.
S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.

P: Suspected crack in windshield.
S: Suspect you're right.

P: Number 3 engine missing.
S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.

P: Aircraft handles funny.
S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.

P: Target radar hums.
S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.

P: Mouse in cockpit.
S: Cat installed.

P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.
S: Took hammer away from midget.

Bring on the Holidays

2006-04-10T08:07:00.000+10:00

Well with only 3 days to go until Adrian gets here, I have managed to come up with lots to do to try and make the time go faster.
Monday; Work, Gym
Tuesday; Work, Night School, Gym
Wednesday; Work, Belly Dancing with Joey, Gym
Thursday, Work, then the wait for the plane to arrive, and you can bet anything that it's going to drag worse than the rest of the week.

The weekend was pretty uneventful, lets see, went to the gym, saturday and sunday, started to watch season 6 of charmed, season 5 of Gilmore Girls is sitting on the coffee table waiting until I have finished charmed (only 1 disk to go)
Also watched History of Violence - Frekin awsome, really liked it. Scary Movie 2 was on the tv and I watched that outta the need for pure stupidity, I gotta say, not too bad, funny. The talking parrot was a hoot, I laughed so much I thought that my squiggley spooge was going to fall out!! that and my spleen!! (Invader Zim reference, for all you people who are going WTF right now!) And if you dont know who/what Invader Zim is -http://www.nick.com/all_nick/tv_supersites/zim/

Talked to Adrian on line, and Joel, went to a few open homes, took a trip to the parentals, and thats my weekend in a nut shell!

*giggles* - Easter Bunny is not bringing me chocolate, Jet Star is bringing me an Adrian!!

Good God its Friday

2006-04-07T13:28:00.000+10:00

6 Days to wait

DAMN it's been cold the past few days. Glad I got the car, and I dont have to walk in the wind and rain anymore!! Supposed to be a shitty weekend weather wise. Think I'll hit the gym and sleep most of the weekend.

So glad that it is Friday.

During my two week absence from work, the doctors moved in full time. So now I have the joy of putting up with teenage parents who can not/will not control/discipline their kids and let them run into my office and up and down the hallway. I have since put up a sigh that says keep your fucking kids under control or go somewhere else (though it is in much nicer non mel, parent friendly words so that I don;t get sued for teachin the kiddies naughty mel type words!!) Now dont get me wrong I like kids, but there is only so much screaming and tanty throwing (that is not mine) that I can handel!!
Then there are the people that smell like ashtrays and have really bad BO (shudder) Seriously people 4 bucks will get you that nice pretty, smelly spray stuff FUCKING BUY SOME. Oh wait here's a though even take a shower more than once a month. (Cynical aren't I)

Then there are those days that you have the really nice people, (wish there were more days like that)

The docs also took over everything, my space included.

Story goes like this;
Got to work after attending REIT Training to find my stuff moved and gone, thrown on the floor. This pissed me off to no end. I chucked the BIGGEST tanty ever, now people who know me well are aware of my tanty throwing, but people you have NEVER seen a tanty like this.
It could've won me an emmy/grammy or some type of award!

I am looking forward to easter and it can't get here fast enough. Reasons for wanting easter here faster; 1) Adrian will be here Thursday, and much needed huggin, and indoor and outdoor activities will be had/done. 2) TIME OFF WORK!! 3) Anita's House warming, lots and lots of alcohol comsumption will be had by me. I will need to be poured in to a car and driven home. People you have been WARNED!! 4) did I mention that Adrian will be here!! 5) I have new seasons of Gilmore Girls and Charmed to watch. 6) Will be cooking for Adrian - yes people I cook, just not for myself. (damn good at it to!!)

Well that about sums it all up from my last post till now.

- Melody

P.S - Spanky Pants, I have season 3 of the Pretender back now, I suspect that you'll be a wantin it shortly. :)

Jimmy Wimmy - W00T!

W00T I PASSED

2006-04-03T19:04:00.000+10:00

Well I have been busy the past two weeks undergoing my REIT Training Course for my Real Estate Sales Consultant Licence (now thats a mouthful!!) Lots of study was required, sacrifices made (no drinking for two weekends in a row)
But all that payed off and I passed the final exam with an 81.5% the minimum pass rate was 80% I just made it. I just have to send the 'pass papers' to the Auctioneers' and Real Estate Agents' Council, they have the final say as to who gets issued a Licence and who does not, then I am on my way to selling stuffs!

It was anita' s Birthday on sunday HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETY!!
I took a break from study to meet with her and others in a celebratory dinner at the Club Hotel. Before that others went roller skating, but due to a very dodgy ankle, the fact that I cant skate and the study I took a rain check on that, and opted for dinner only. It was an enjoyable meal and it was good to catch up with people that I have not been able to see for awhile.

Adrian is down next thursday for the Easter break, and I cant wait.
There is a tone of stuff to do, Anita and Dave's house warming party (they recently move to bigger and better living arrangements) There is dinner at the parentals, my sister, my future brother inlaw, my brother and my future sister in law should be there as well, the whole frickin family, should be errr fun!!

I am also looking into buying a house!! Yes I want a mortgage! it's better than paying dead money into renting. and when I move so that I am closer to Adrian (yes I will be moving to sydney at some point) i'll rent it out, and the rental income will pay off the mortgage

I think that has about caught you all up in the life of mel for the past two weeks.

3 Weeks and 4 days

It's Green Beer and Guinness Day!!!

Was going to stay home and study, but now me thinks that I shall go out and have me a few pints. I shall wait and see how the day progresses.

Nothing exciting has happend in the world of MelodyMuffin this week;
Got the flu shot jab, got my training guide and study books for my Licencing Course on Monday.
Listed my Nintendo DS on Ebay, I'll wait and see how that goes before I list the other stuffs.

And that about sums up my week.

On the up side, 1 week less till Easter!!

- Melody

With all That Has Been Said and Done

2006-03-14T11:12:00.000+11:00

4 Weeks and 6 Days

Well the long weekend has come and gone. And the countdown to Easter has begun.

The weekend was great;

FRIDAY
I had mum's birds stayin for the weekend as well, they arrived on Thursday.
Adrian's flight was on time!! YAY

SATURDAY
Involved a trip to the Tahune Airwalk, I had never been there before, it was fantastic. Quite and Peaceful, with the sounds of birds chirping, river doin its thing making river noises!! And the view was awsome. It was nice to just watch the river flow, huggin Adrian and just relaxing while walking through the forest.

Once we had finished at the Airwalk we headed back into town for lunch and a walk around. Then it was back to my place to watch Saw. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be, with all the hype that I had heard I was kind dissappointed at the end result, there were a few bits where I was all 'Eww that's gross', and 'OMG he didn't' thought it was going to be one of those movies where you jump and get a good scare *shrug*

SUNDAY
After bird Maintanance (looked after the avaries at mum's place this weekend) and a Trip to see Adrian's Family, we went to see Hostel. I have to agree with Retsil_Divad's summary of this movie - 'open quote (Hostel in 30 seconds: Tits, Tits, Tits, worry worry ....OMFG OMFG OMFG OMFG...ROFL...HAHA....END) end quote' There was one part right at the start of the movie, that made me jump, a door closed, that was it *shakes Head* I had worked myself up for this movie to be the one to make me jump, and it did *bows head in shame*
Other than Adrian and I there were only two other people in the cinema. Over all I enjoyed the movie, though I have to admit that I came out of the movie feeling kinda ill and I had the shakes, some stuff in that movie 'OMFG' After some fresh air and a lots of hugs I was feelin better!

MONDAY
Was spent with more relaxing, movie watchin and stuffs. Mum come around and got the birds, and suddenly my house was so quiet!!! I dont really mind the noise they make, unless I am watchin a movie or have a headache.
Then all too soon it was time for that trip to the Airport, the one I hate so very much.

Update: 2.17 pm

Bugger, I forgot that I have my Real Estate Sales Licensing Course (RESL) next Monday, that goes from 9am till 4pm then from 4pm till 10pm I go to work, then on Tuesday I have (RESL) from 9-4 then TAFE from 6-9 then work from 9-11 man Tuesday is going to suck BIG TIME!!

- Melody

Bring on the Weekend

2006-03-09T13:17:00.000+11:00

1 Day to go

Got the third season of The Pretender today, me thinks that I am going to watch it all tomorrow on my day off to help pass the time till I get to see Adrian. He arrives at 8.10pm, providing the flight is not delayed 2 hours like it was last time.

Nothing else of great importance or interesting has happend so I bid thee farewell as I will not be back till Tuesday!!

Don't send a serch party, as they will not be invited to join in the festivities!!! :P

- Melody

Rambling

2006-03-08T15:06:00.000+11:00

2 Days

Work has slowed to a crawl atm, so I thought I'd have a ramble on my blog to pass the time.
Currently I am talking to Adrian via sms. I miss him, only 2 days to go, before I gets to hug and do other stuffs to him!! :P
I am also in the process of making an outfit similar to the one pictured to the left, without the red though, not a big fan of wearing red.

I am also going to join Joey's belly dancing classes. So now on my resume I can have Pole Dancing, Lap Dancing, Dirty Dancing, Table Dancing and Belly Dancing. Maybe I am in the wrong profession *thinks

Went shopping with my boss today, he is looking into getting a home gym, so we both went to Paul's Warehouse to see what they had on offer. I dont know if he found anything but I sure did. A boxing station, comes with a floor to ceiling ball, and a speed ball, I only have to buy the actual boxing bag a 22 at $70.00, the station itself is $399 down from $600 so add the bag and I can get away with it all for $470.00 not too shabby, me thinks. Pitty I can't get it straight away :( oh well maybe soon.

Tried to find my skanky police slut outfit lastnight, can't find it :( I will have to get another, it's good for costume parties!!

I thinks I am done with the rambling,

- Melody

MMmmmmmmmm DRUGS

2006-03-07T08:31:00.000+11:00

3 Days

Went to the doc yesterday, this guy was nice he gave me drugs to kill my chest infection, as apposed to the last one who said 'you'll be right love, its just the flu'
He also booked me in for a flu shot, he reackons that it will stop the infections coming back as much!! WOOT I am all for the not coming back at all. He mentiond that the flu shot can sometimes boost ones immune system, again I am all for the boosting!
I also got some multi vitamins, so atm I am taking so many pills that if you were to shake me up and down, I'd rattle!!! you can call me a Melracca!! *shake, Shake, Shake*

Got some sleep lastnight to which was great.

Tafe tonight, meh rather not go, but I get exsam results so me thinks I'll stick around long enough to get those then I'll head home.

*Thinks* Wonder how RetsilDivad went with his new job training thingy?

- Melody

No Idea What To Call This Post

2006-03-06T09:19:00.000+11:00

4 Days till...................... well you know!!

So my weekend was pretty much as I said it was going to be on Fridays Post, with the exception of while I was waiting for my car to be serviced, I passed the time by helping the Parentals Landscape the front yard. There was diggin, planting, rock placement, pebble spreading and of course the end watering. Looks really good, I'll take some pics at somepoint this week.

My hair is all cut and coloured, thought about posting pics, but I figured I'd make you all wait to see it (those of you whom I actually see that is!)

I am thinking of getting something else pierced, not sure what though, tongue, eyebrow, ears (again) Still have to get my other Chinese symbol Tattoo done to. Best be making some bookings!!

You have to admit, the TISM bunny is rather darn cute!!

Dont ya just wanna hug him to make it all better!! :)

Poor little bugger!!

- Melody

Nice 'n' Quiet

2006-03-03T10:31:00.000+11:00

So I went back to work today, not the best decision that I have ever made, but it was a good thing I went back. The work was piled up on my desk just waiting for me.
Still feeling crappy, on the up side, I only have the fever and sore throat left everything else seems to have run their course and gone. :) I am considering heading home shortly if nothing else is required of me.

There is not a great deal planned for this weekend, going to keep it quiet and uneventful. I hope.

Saturday will see my car being serviced, *eep and gulp!!

On Sunday I shall be getting a cut and colour, and visiting Joey who will be administering the colour.

And that will be my weekend. Nice and Quiet.

- Melody

Too Hot

2006-03-02T12:47:00.000+11:00

Ok so I know I said I love it hot, but this is way different, see I have a fever, yes I am not well. I caught some nice bug that is going around. Seems that whatever is going around I get. On the upside I am now fully caught up on the sleep I miss out on the previous few weeks. Its a good thing I have two seasons of Las Vegas to keep me occupied and distracted.

Adrian is coming down for the 'Eight Hour Day' long weekend, and for easter!! I am so lucky!!

- Melody

Philosophy

2006-02-28T08:02:00.000+11:00

So it would seem that my normal sleeping pattern has returned fingers crossed it stays.
I like sleep, sleep is good.

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila and salt!!

- Melody

Weekends are NEVER long enough

2006-02-27T08:19:00.000+11:00

WOOT a full nights sleep.

So my weekend was fantastic.

Adrian's flight was delayed, instead of arriving at 8.10pm it arrived at 11.45pm. These things happen, but I still don't have to like it!!

Saturday there was a trip to see Adrian's family, a nap on Adrian's bed!! (seriously I was tired and I fell asleep watching Fez doing something on WoW) shopping, and dinner with the parentals, which went really well.
Saturday night there was drinking and dancing at Irish, with Joey, Joel, Thug, Adrian and myself. HEHE some dirty dancing with Joey!! much to the delight of some strange guys that were behind us, one of which I think was trying to chat Joey up, but with the loudness of the band he failed miserably! The night ended at midnight, well for Adrian and I anyway ;) we left Joey and Joel at Irish, not sure if they stayed or not. Thug bailed earlier around 11 ish. And Tony the Slacker never turned up!!

Sunday saw us seeing a movie, Casanova. It was not to bad, funny, but sadly lacking in the naked, sweaty sences that Casanova was renowned for, not what you expect, but still a good movie.
Then it was time for the long dreaded trip to the airport so that Adrian could catch his flight back to Victoria :(

Now it's Monday, and I miss him so much.

This week shall see me at our Display Home on Tuesday and Thursday, Night school, Boxing and the gym. With the Display Home open until November, I'll be spending a fair amount of time there, especially if I have to move in and live there, a whole completely different thing and will tell you all about it if and when I have to move in.

And in the past week I have almost completed my first course for Tafe. This is a good thing, see I am taking two courses at the same time, taught by the same teacher on the same night, so there is not enough time to do both lots of work assigned. I have been doing one course during work hours, so that I can concentrate on one course during class hours. Just got to hand in the required completed assignments, complete my in class assessments and sit back and wait for my results. (fingers crossed)

Why can't the year be one giant weekend?

- Melody

You can have me but cannot hold me;
Gain me and quickly lose me.
If treated with care I can be great,
And if betrayed I will break.

Thank God It's Friday!!

2006-02-24T07:53:00.000+11:00

12 hours till I can see my man!!!

There is plenty to keep me busy at work today, so those 12 hours should go really fast (I hope)
This weekend is promising to be a great one, booze, dancing, and adrian what more could this Melody want? Suggestion anyone?

Oh yeah I want a Puppy;
Look at those cute widdle face, how can you not love a face like that. I'll take one of each please!!

- Melody

Bored Now

2006-02-23T14:42:00.000+11:00

Like willow said in Buffy when she was a Vampire, 'Bored Now, wanna play with the puppy'

- Melody

Somewhat Relaxed

2006-02-22T14:59:00.000+11:00

2 Days to go before I can gets my hugs!!

So today is a somewhat better day, feeling more relaxed and even managed to sleep lastnight!! It was good!!

So TAFE lastnight went well. I can do most of the required work at, well work! so it seems that I dont even have to actually go to night school as much as I thought!!
I have already completed something like 7 assessment pieces today during work, whilst doing actual work stuff! geeze I am good with the time management thingys!!

Nothing else of great importance to share at this point in time, other than the weather is really crappy today, I am so cold that my hands are PURPLE!!! And the weather telly people say that it is going to be 28 on Friday.......wonder how they figure that? *shrugs

- Melody

48 hours no sleep = a VERY tired Mel

2006-02-21T09:03:00.000+11:00

4 Days to go!!

Sleep; State of not being awake -
physiology a state of partial or full unconsciousness in people and animals during which voluntary functions are suspended and the body rests and restores itself.

Now that we have covered what sleep is, I just need to fiugre out how to get some, (sleep that is)
Though I think that i have figured out why I have not been sleeping; there is just too much going on in my head, to much to think about. I can seem to shut my brain down long enough. Even switching to my well known one track mind is not helping, cos then I think about things that should not be thought about when one is trying to sleep!!

Busy week this week, Display home opens on Friday, night school starts tonight, various office type stuff that needs doing, BAS, Super, accounts, reconcilliations.
MEH I need some sleeep. Though I think that i have figured out why I have not been sleeping; there is just too much going on in my head, to much to think about. I can seem to shut my brain down long enough.
Thank god I only have one job atm, otherwise I think i'd end up doing something very, very bad.

On a completly different topic, I had thought about going to the Desperate and Dateless Ball, though I am neither Desperate nor Dateless. But the Rogue Traders are playing and for $100.00 you can drink as much booze as you can!! that in its self is a semi good reason to attend.
But then again $100.00 is a plane ticket to Melbourne to see Adrian. Think i'll leave the ball the the Desperate and Dateless, I wanna go to Melbourne again!!

Upate: 11am
Mood: VERY PISSED OFF, duck and cover people I am going to blow, and its not going to be pretty.

Nothing like a phone conversation with someone that owes the company you work for a shit load of money when they do nothing up swear and yell at you for 15 minuets, telling you that you wont be getting the money that is owed. (Come on people it's already 2 years over due, thats some hefty interest bill they are gunna get!)
There was mention of lawsuits.
Dude the works has been done, just pay the fucking bill already.

I am not a happy camper, there are many things I hate and dispise in this world, and one of those things is being treated like a stupid, blonde receptionist, ( I am not a reciptionist people I am a FINCNCIAL MANAGER, that is my official title)

God Fucking damn it, I don't even have time to vent at boxing tonight, AARGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH
It takes alot to piss me off this much, glad to say that it does not happen much.

Did I mention ARGH?

7 Days To Go!

Aside from having a funny name and damn cute little cartoon guys, it a good tasting juice!!

So this weekend was pretty uneventful. Went out on Friday night, but that ended abruptly when people got tired, sore and had to pick up daves. *shrug* seeing as how I had to work on Saturday it did not bother me that much. Still had a good time with the dancing and non alcoholic drinking.

Today not alot happening either, went boxing then to the gym, now just chillin, thinking about going shopping. Only thinking!!

7 days to go you ask? Adrian comes down next weekend!! So the count down starts again!!!

Back to the daily grind

2006-02-16T11:51:00.000+11:00

So yesterday was my first full day back at work and it was fucking busy. Accounts to enter and pay, keys to deliver, Display home to organise. Tomorrow I have the day off!! But then I have to work on Saturday for a few hours doing manual labour!! yup I'll be gettin down and dirty!!

Today is quiet, not alot happening, brought Charmed season 5, and new curtains for my house, and sending sms's to Adrian a nice easy day!!

Here are the pics of the Display Home that I am working on, which is located on one of our companies new subdivisions. Part of my job was to furnish out the Disply Home, so all the furniture that is in the home was chosen by little 'ol me!! Not a bad choice in colour seeing as i had no idea what any of the colours for the carpet and blinds were, a darn good guess on my part!!

Kiddies Room

Master Bedroom

Dining and Lounge Room

The next few pics are of the Main Bathroom

Well those are all the pics I have at the moment, I'll try and get some of the outside as it has just been landscaped and all that kinda thing, looks really nice.

- Melody

I Came, I Saw and I Conquered!

2006-02-15T07:56:00.000+11:00

Well I got back from Melbourne/Victoria last night. My weekend went a little something like this;

Friday:
Arrived at 7pm ish to be greeted by Adrian at the airport. There was much huggin and Kissin!! Once the long walk to collect baggage was done, there was an even longer wait for set luggage to go past me on the moving luggage collect thing! With luggage and Adrian in hand we headed to the car for the drive to Stable Stopovers, an awsome B&B just outside of Hastings, around a 20 ish Minute drive from Cerberus!!

Below is the spare room where all my
stuff was stored, the sleeping bedroom was to the left of this room.

below is the Lounge room

Patio outside

And this is the main living area, to the left is the lounge, to the right is dining, through the blue door is the bathrom, and to the left of that is the kitchen.

Saturday:
Woke up to a nice morning (with a Sailor in my bed!!) at around 9am, we were going to head to the beach but the weather was looking a little ominous, so Adrian suggested shopping!! BAD IDEA!!! Nah it went well. We started in Frankston, just walking the streets looking at shops and trying to figure out how I could transport a surfboard to Hobart. Done with Frankston we headed to Mornington. My credit card got a nice work out there I tell you that!! Several tops, jeans, trackies, and some Guinness P.J's from Barworld, now that is a shop we really need here. There was a short stop at the food court for food. I got dinner and a show!! A few of the local boys, (trying to be men) got into a poor excuse for a fight did not last long, but hey it was entertaining!! Once the shopping was complete, we headed back to the villa to get ready for a BBQ at someone's place, which was at the base (Cerberus) so there were several of Adrian's mates there. Shortly after we got there a game of Backyard cricket was started, very amusing to say the least. Food was cooked and eaten, booze was open and drunk. Water meter run over and broken, and an attempt at 60 shots of beer in so many minutes, did not go so well, I think 45 shots was the end result, but not sure on the minutes.
Then it was off to Frankston to hit the pubs and drink some more. First it was the Irish pub HaPennys, for Guinness, though it would seem that Adrian and I are the only ones that like the big, dark brew. The story goes like this; they had this promotion on, where you buy 4 pints and you get a free soccer ball with the Guinness logo on it. I made it my mission to get this ball for Adrian. I flirted with the barman, got a discount off the Guinness, a phone number and the ball!! Once having accuried the 4 pints it was back to the table for the drinking, Adrian had one, (that's a given) then the remaining 3 I handed out to various other's. By the time Adrian had finished his, the others were still going, and complaining a lot about the taste and 'how the hell can you drink this crap' it was very amusing. We then headed to other drinking establishments. But with a slight accident to one of the guys, (who turned out to be ok) had to go back to the base, it turned into an early night, which was fine by me, we headed back to the villa.

Sunday:
A beautiful day, beach weather!! So that is what we did we beached it. The water was freezing! took ages to get used to, so I gave up and sunbaked on the beach. Nothing like laying on a beach in the sun with your man right next to you rubbing lotion on you!! (providing your a chick, or a guy that swings in that direction!) Once done with the beach, we headed out for some shopping and then back to the villa. Sunday also marked the end of the weekend for Adrian and he had to go back to Cerberus for work.

Monday:
Being alone for the day while Adrian was at work, I amused myself. The B&B owner's invited me to the gym, so I went. I had a blast, I got some boxing training from a guy that was in the Commonwealth Games in Rome, it was awsome!! Once the boxing was over I walked around the B&B Property they had a huge property, with horses, dogs, chickens. With the shuter bug in me satisfied I went for a walk into Hastings for all you Tassies reading this imagine walking from Glenorchy to Hobart and back, add alittle more. Once back at the villa I must have fallen asleep watching a movie, cos the next thing I know I was woken by the dogs barking and Adrian walking into the bedroom :)
We headed out for dinner in a nice pub with a few of the guys that were at the BBQ on Saturday.

Tuesday:
Once again alone for the day I had to amuse myself, though this day I just could not. I ended up watching crappy telly, and trying to sleep. See this was the day that I flew away from Adrian and back to Tassie :( Somehow Adrian managed to get off work early and was at the villa by around 3.00ish All packed and ready to go, but oh so not wanting to go. Also being Valentines Day, Adrian surprised me with a cute bear and a rose. (pics later) He's so sweet and cute, (Adrian that is)
So with that it was off to the airport where I checked in and went through security. Now security was interesting I was randomly pick to have my bags tested for gun powder residue!! an interesting experience.
We grabbed a bite to eat before heading to the lounge to wait for my flight. Whilst waiting I named the bear 'Rupert'
My flight was called and I lined up to board. God it was hard to get on that plane, I really wanted to stay, but with a job and commitments here I have no choice but to leave.
So began the hour ish flight from Melbourne to Hobart. With Rupert on my lap, I thought of nothing but Adrian.

Landing in Hobart I was informed by the people sitting next to me that I would have to declare my rose to quarantine :( but upon meeting with the nice quarantine guy, he told me that there was no way he was going to make me give up the rose on Valentines Day!! :)

I had a really great time, as I am sure Adrian did also. Next time I go to Melbourne, I'll actually be staying in Melbourne (maybe the Crown) and doing the whole shopping thing for an entire week!! yes people a week long shopping trip!! And yes hopefully Adrian will be accompanying me on this trip.

Looks as though the count down will start again as Adrian might be down on the 24 of Feb!! *HUGE SMILE*

So that people was my weekend.
Things have been edited and left out, somethings are just not meant to be written on a blog ;)

Pneumonia Anyone?

2006-02-09T09:03:00.000+11:00

Just got to make it through today, then its off to see Adrian!!

Fucking bloody Tasmanian weather, yesterday it was a nice 25 ish degrees, today its cold, wet and raining, all the right combinations for me to get Pneumonia, woo fucking hoo, as long as it holds off till Tuesday after I get back I don't rightly care much.
A somewhat busy day at work today, lots of meetings and book work to be done, so that should keep me relatively distracted during the day, then for distraction tonight it's the movies with Joel, its after the movie that I am not looking forward to, I'll have to find something to keep my mind occupied.
*Huge sigh and a rather loud MEH!

GOD i LOVE Ebay.

Just brought a new single doona cover for the single bed I got the other day.
$50.00 Bargin seeing as how it costs around $100.00 in store!! and I really like Frangipani's so woot for Ebay. HEHE now I get to re-modle my house!! Hey that is what I can do after the movie tonight! Sweet.
Too bad it wont take that long, ah well maybe i can wake Picard up and she'll keep me company and distracted!! Though more likely not, she'd be far too cranky, and she has to go to mum's tomorrow morning at like 7am!!

Dude you should warn somebody BEFORE you do that!!

2006-02-08T12:04:00.000+11:00

1 Day to go!!

Good news is I am less irritated and jumpy today, GOD I LOVE boxing!!!

So today is pay day a huge WOOT is in order!!
atm I am in the office all alone, thinking, me all alone and thinking not a good combination.
*SIGH
Tomorrow will bring a trip to the movies to see 'Jarhead' , last minute packing and house cleaning, and propbably a sleepless night waiting for 5pm Friday to rock around. Oh yeah and work.
Brought a single bed today so that when I have company again (Dash) they wont have to sleep on a matress on the floor! Got the most awsome doona cover off ebay for like $50.00!! it rocks, very Mel like i belive most people will say when they see it.

I am also trying to bid on a talking Gir dashboard driver , he says;

"I wanna be a mongoose"

"Yes, my master"

"Let's go to my room pig"

"I love this show"

He's sooooooooo darn cute!!

I really, really, really want him!!!
I am begining to think that Invader Zim and Gir have now reaplaced my Winnie the Pooh obsession with their own!!
OOOOOPS!! As long as nothing replaces my alcohol obsession I'll be ok!!

GRRRR, ARRRRRRRRRRRGH

2006-02-07T15:19:00.000+11:00

Finished work at 9ish lastnight, so several red bulls for breakfast and several more for lunch, ( I love an all liquid diet!!) and i am feeling jumpy and irritated, i just wanna go home so I can go boxing and kick the crap outta something/someone.
On the up side only two more days of work before I jump on a plane that will take me stright to Melbourne, and in turn stright to Adrain I cant wait, he only left on Sunday but I miss him so much already :(

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DASH, I know that it is late but hey, I am evil, not perfect!!

An 1 1/2 to go before I can leave, hench the post title, GRRRR ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH

Grounded

2006-02-03T12:44:00.000+11:00

1 Week to go!

On wednesday I took Picard to the vet to have her wings clipped for when she is at mums house next weekend. So she is effectively grounded, no flying at all :( poor 'lil bugger but it is for her own good.
Thursday morning saw me waking up to find an egg, her first since november last year, thought that I had that in check but I guess not. Ah well, she likes to play soccer with them which keeps her amused while I am at work, who am I to deprive her of soccer!

Dash flew back to Sydney yesterday, as far as I know he had a great time here. I really hope all goes well for his new job and for when Sophie comes to visit. Though I am pretty sure that other than seeing a Tassie Devil as road kill, that was the only one he saw. But by the sounds of things he saw what I can only imagine to be a Bilby!! If he comes down again he'll be bring sophie (I hope) and then i'll take holidays and take them to the really nice places in Tassie, like Wineglass Bay, Cradle Mountian that sorta thing.

A nice quiet weekend is planned with Adrian,(my new man) consisting of bowling, maybe a movie, and other stuffs, (get your minds outta the gutter people there is not enough room for yours as well as mine, and I was here first!) He goes back to Victoria on sunday.

Finishing work early today, there is nothing much going on, that and it is by far too nice of a day to be stuck inside, I wanna go play!! ;)

Joey, nita and Co, hope you have a good time in Launceston this weekend!

- Melody

you want me to do what with who now?

2006-01-30T13:21:00.000+11:00

So, Tuesday is TAFE sign up day, posted out the registration for for my Real Estate Sellers Licence this morning, and that starts on the 20th of March and ends on April 3rd so by that date I should be licenced to sell property, (providing I pass the exsam which requires an 80% pass average)
Why do I require a sellers licence I hear you ask? cos the company I work for has several subdivisions that they are working on, and require someone to sell the land, hiring a Real Estate agent to sell the blocks would cost more money and why do that when you already have someone, and who better than someone that alreay works for them, and I dont mind cos I get commission for each block I sell!!

At last count I have two full time jobs, full time TAFE and a 1 month course.
Plus travel to Melbourne/Victoria. (which is a good thing)

Who needs sleep when there are so many drugs of different shapes, sizes and colours to keep you awake, well that and a shit load of Red Bull.
Wonder how long the human body can go without sleep, and how much Red Bull it can handle, might have to look into that one.

A Good Time Tassie style

2006-01-29T09:17:00.000+11:00

So I picked Dash (aka jan) from the airport on friday night, took a drive around town and battery point then headed for my place for talk and sleep.
saturday morning we headed into town for car rental, bacon and eggs, and Salamanca Market. I had to bail on Jan for a family BBQ at noon, but was all done my 3pm and we met back at my place for booze!! A phone call to Joey and Nita and we were on our way to show Jan a great time out on the town in Tassie. There was drinking, dancing and Joey constantly asking Jan to talk cos she LOVED his accent!! Well Joey, we love you!!! Did I mention the drinking? We started at the Metz in Sandy Bay, then went to Taccos for Mageritas then as always we finished the night at Irish (there's a shock) at around 3am. I really hope I did not break Jan to much I don't want his girlfriend Sophie mad at me!!
Now being sick with broncitis I decided to stop taking my meds so that I could drink, not the wisest decidion I ever made. Lets just say there was dizzyness and breathing issues, not related to the alcohol consumption!!
Back on my meds today so all should be good.
This morning Jan is heading off to the North of Tassie, Lake Pedder, Gordon River that sort of thing. He'll be gone till Thursday which is when his plane leaves at 4pm.

- Melody

I can speak!!

2006-01-27T09:30:00.000+11:00

14 Days to go!

Well the meds have kicked in and I am feeling so much better, I have my voice back, I lost it for a little while yesterday!!
Also decided that I did not need my index finger yesterday and tried to remove it( by accident of course!) so that bled lots, and freck it hurt, but hey nothing a few stitches cant fix!!
Got a message from Dash this morning he is coming to visit tonight like me he is also a memebr of Tailfeathers!! I am going to show him a GREAT TASSIE time, like no one but me can provide!!
I am so looking forward to seeing Dash, waiting on his reply but hopefully I will be picking him up from the airport tonight. SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Woman on Drugs

2006-01-25T18:55:00.000+11:00

For the past few days I have been of work sick with broncitis, went to the doc for dugs as I wanna get better so I can still fly on the 10th of feb to see Adrian. The drugs sarted to kick in today, so with any luck ill be fully well within the week, with time to spare!!
My preparation for the trip to Melbourne is well underway, flights booked and paid for, same with accommodation. Suitcase was purchased and now wait to be packed. Two weeks will not go quick enough!
With tomorrow being a public holiday and me being sick, chances are ill be at home resting and hopfully getting better.

hope you all have a good day off tomorrow (for those of you in Oz and who actually get the day off)

I LOVE hot weather

2006-01-23T13:19:00.000+11:00

*18 Days to go*

So my weekend when a little like this, Worked for an hour on saturday morning, shopping in the arvo chatting on line in the evening. A nice quite saturday, something that does not happen often in my life, it was nice for a change.

Sunday was a little different, took picard upto mums for the day as it was forcast to be 36, and that is far to hot to leave her shut up at home. Once picard was safley delivered to mums I collected joel and thug and we headed to Seven Mile Beach to meet other people, nita, dave and joey, (the usual crowd!!) Got to the beach around noon and left at 5pm, I love the beach. Had a blast, with the swimming, sun baking (well burning!!) and the general chatting of catching up with eveyone elses life going on's.
Once I returned from the beach and settled picard down, it was time to remove the beach from my hair!! so I headed for the shower, I did not notice that I was that burnt until the water from the shower it those burnt spots, then I knew all about it!! Mostly my legs and chest, and lower back, meh just rubbed in some after sun care lotion stuff and I was good to go. I really dont care if i burn (as long as it is not my face) cos I go brown in a few days later.
The rest of my evening was spent chatting online. Followed by a little house cleaning.

Then today at lunch I took my car to the car wash and removed the massive amounts of beach that four people can leave in a car!!

I hope that it is beach weather this weekend, i wanna go again!!

- Melody

Bora Bora

2006-01-20T15:00:00.000+11:00

We had a storm here thismorning, it was huge by Tassie standards, but by others it was probably a piss poor effort! But the lightning was cool, thunder was LOUD, and after it finished it turned into a stinking hot day of 30 degrees, which would not have been so bad if i did not have to be at work, hat sort of weather should be spent at the beach with friends, gettin naked, swimming and getting burnt. Good thing i dont work on sunday, they have forecast 36 degress, so it would seem that there will be some serious beach time to be had. WOOHOO!! Bring it on!!

I wanna go to Bora Bora.

One of these days i'll make it there. Maybe for annual holidays in 2007!! Seems like a long way away, but then there is plenty of time to save the serious amounts of $$$$ required for such a trip.

So Underworld was good, enjoyed it lots.

Can I Really Wait 22 Days?

2006-01-19T08:27:00.000+11:00

Well lastnight it became official I booked my flight and accommodation to Melbourne to see my sailor!!! For 5 glorious days i'll be doing nothing but Adrian!! and maybe shaking things up a bit with the occasional swim. (I said maybe) The only thing is I now have to wait a grand total of 22 days before my flight, my question is this, can I wait that long? The answer I came up with, after a long deliberation was, 'you're just going to bloody well have to try'!!

Going to see Underworld Evolution tonight, should be good.

Time: 1.42
Mood: VERY PISSED OFF
Reason: I was out driving dropping off and picking up stuff for work. Driving behind and old lady doing 60 in an 80 zone, seeing as how there was no over taking lane i behaved my self and waited till one came up (i know the road well i i knew there was one coming) So the overtaking lane appeared and i indicated, pulled out and sped up and over took that painstakingly slow woman. Then I get pulled over for inciting road rage, WTF!! I was in an overtaking lane, OVERTAKING a slow person, please for the sake of my sanity (well what is left of it anyway) tell me how the hell that is inciting road rage, stupid old git should not have a licence anyway. Some people should have been drowned at birth, come on people you know who you are!! do the world a huge favour, end it all now.

Booze, Dancing and Farewells

2006-01-13T11:48:00.000+11:00

So this weekend will be full of partys and alcohol and farewells. Tonight hitting the town for drinks with friends, as it is Adrians (Navy Guys) last night in Tassie cos he has to go back to the Navy :(
Then Saturday arvo will see my attendance at a BBQ, following that there is more drinking in Town as Danny is leave us for the Army also :( (something about guys and the armed forces me thinks!!) I dont think an early night will be had on either occassion.

On a side note, my tattoo is all healed up and looks fantastic, now i am going to book in for the other one!!

Hope you all have a good weekend.

Wanted Woman/Woman Wanted?

2006-01-09T16:00:00.000+11:00

Brought new Knee High boots the other day in preparation for my party;

Had a small (10 people) gathering at my place on Saturday, was a HUGE sucess, there was strip poker, drinking,eating, musical cars!!! and table dancing (done by me of course!!) fun was had by all. Due to the noise and late/early ending (sunday morning) I took Picard up to my mums for a sleep over, mum said that Picard had a blast, she (picard) really gets along well with her birds. Tim and Tam (my finches) also stayed with mum, and when they returned home, they had 3 eggs for me!! my babies wanna have more babies!! I soon put a stop to that.

Well today was my first day back at work after the christmas break, and what an interesting day it was; The phone rang so doing my job I answered it, it was one of our clients offering me a full time job with them!! now keeping in mind that I already have TWO full time jobs, it would seem that I have some serious talents that everyone wants!! I turn the job down, and they were rather disappointed. But with my two jobs, and TAFE i just don't have the time of a third job, was nice of them to think of me though BEFORE they advertised it in the paper!!

So that about sums up my news at this stage.

New tattoo is healing well, little bit itchy but that is the norm!!

- Melody

New Tattoo

2006-01-05T15:35:00.000+11:00

Well today i gots me a new tattoo the chinese symbol for evil, only took 20 minutes and i was on my way to town for shopping!!

Nothing else exciting has happened in the past few days so there is no much to report.

May be after going out this weekend i may have a few ineresing stories to tell.

Welcome 2006!!

2006-01-01T14:56:00.000+11:00

So last night went rather smoothly. Alcohol was had and drunk, items of clothes were lost, titty shots were had, drunken dancing, and a small hobbit, below are some various pics from last night;

I did have pics of the titty shots but as they were taken by an inexperianced photographer they are way blurry and not good.

2005 was a great year for me, i hope that 2006 will be good also. Great job, Great Friends, Great Family, no new years resolution for me, i am happy with my life no changes needed made all the important changes middle of last year. Hope all is well with you all.

- Melody

NEW YEARS EVE 2005

2005-12-31T15:33:00.000+11:00

Went out last night, but it was a bust as i was unwell and needed to go home and get better fast for tonight. So far feeling much better.

New Years plans, are going to be huge, the drinks consist of, 5 - 4 packs of bacardi breezers, 1 bottle of Miduri, 6 shot bottles of absolut vodka, and a shot bottle of sambucca. That should get me going nicely. Spent most of the day relaxing and watching Buffy episodes in preparation for tonight. There is a party at a friends place that i will be frequenting, not sure how many people will be there, but it will be a good time for all i am sure of that.
Whilst relaxing today i had a chance to take some more birdy pics;

Carlo helping himself to my coke beverage.

And here we have Carlo and my baby Picard.
And below Picard looking at his tent, considering going camping!! Such a cutie.

Well i am now going to shower and get ready for what i hope to be massive amounts of alcohol consumption. Hope you all have a good night.

And on a side note, Lilly Pilly, my box is not empty!! Teehee. Maybe you should send in a resume for that position at EB!!

- Melody

Holidays are FUN!!

2005-12-30T13:53:00.000+11:00

So this being on holidays deal is FANTASTIC.

Went to the taste yesterday, had a blast.
Saw my ex out with his old woman, who happens to be a friend of my friend who was at the taste with me, and his old woman was all like 'shhhh' dont wave at me she'll know i am here, well sorry to dissapoint i saw you arrive and park the car, knew you were there all along. News flash, I DONT GIVE A SHIT. You are more than welcome to the scraps that i have discarded. And if you lot absolutly feel the need to discuss my life, then, you all need a new hobby.

So any way had to leave the taste at 4 to meet my mum. Then it was back to the taste at 6 to meet joey, joel and adrian. alcholo was consumed and fun was had by all. Going out tonight to have more fun and games.

Here is a pic of my little baby girl, playing with my stuffed toys, she loves to preen and chew. Shes just too cute.

This is Carlo, my mums new baby;

RICHMOND

2005-12-30T08:46:00.000+11:00

Richmond on Tuesday went well, lots of shopping and walking, and eating, did I mention the shopping. Picture taking was also done, the ducks were cute but they were to busy waddling away to get their picture taken.

Well that is it for Richmond.
- Melody

The day after yesterday........

2005-12-26T09:02:00.000+11:00

After arriving home at 2am Christmas Day, as i went out with friends Chrismas Eve for a few quiet drinks, but most of the people went home early, leaving, me, adrian and joel, so we moved onto Irish Murphys for more drinks and dancing. As a result of the drink, dancing and fun having i ended up home at 2m ish.

Well Christmas Day has come and gone for another year and i go spoilt rotten!! I got a pancake factory, clothes, vouchers, body jewlery, cash and chockit.
I took my lil birdy picard to mums as well, and she had a WONDERFUL time playing with my mums birds, monty, carlo, and pye. They were running all over the floor, flying and singing and chattering. It was SO CUTE.
The day started and ended at my non 'passive agressive and non screwed up' family's house. Fun and cheer was had by all. I got there at 10am and helped mum cook and clean for the later arrival of brother and sister with their respective partners. Dinner consisted of chicken, ham, salad, various other salad stuffs, and a pavlova for sweets.
The dinner conversation was wide and varied, zim quotes, amusing anicdotes from when we were children. A game of la cross between my brother and myself, with a salad spoon and a hard boiled egg. Though the catching of an egg in ones bare hands did not go well and alass it ended up on the carpet, among fits of giggles and tears of amusement i explaind to others what was so funny, mum found it rather amusing and joined in the laughing, i managed to clean up the egg, and we continued with the cleaning up of dishes.
The evening drew to a close and about 8.30pm and i was full and sleepy. Woke up this morning at 6am so that mum and i coud hit the boxing day sales early.

Tomorrow i am off to Richmond. I shall take pics and post tomorrow.

Hope you all had a good christmas.

- Melody

Last Day at work for 2005!!

Got the remainder of the second series of zim figures, they rock, i also got a 12 inch gir,pictured below, very cool. He has a removable doggy disguise suit, though i did not put that on him, instead i stuck a 'crazy taco in on hand and a 'bubble gum' shake in the other!! I also got a zim t shirt that has written on it 'Why am I so Amazing!!' also very cool.

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
- Melody

HUGE WEEKEND

2005-12-19T10:22:00.000+11:00

So my weekend started and ended fantastic.

The alcohol consumption started at noon on Saturday with half a bottle of Absolute Vodka. The afternoon progress into the evening were I attended a costume party, which had, several private school girls, a red coat, police man, fire man, navy guy, army guy, naughty nurse, several coles workers!! yes Anita that would be you!! I was dress in a rather short skirt, huge knee high boots, and a top of some description, I also had in my possession, one set of fluffy hand cuffs, and a whip! I was up for a GOOD TIME!!
and then there were the people that did not feel the need to come in costume. Once at this gathering, the consumption of Bacardi started. YUMMY!! so during the course of the evening, several games of pool were won and lost, more alcohol was drunk, and somewhere amongst all that I was given a shot of WHISKY,( which i found out the next morning was not a good drink for me) more bacardi was drunk to rid the taste of that awful whisky. Several trips up and down the stairs in ones knee highs and I was restricted to staying up stairs, my ability to conquer the stairs was not so good. Meh I was having a blast.
My evening came to an end at 3am Sunday Morning, as I have resorted to (so I have been informed) rolling around on the floor, and at some point I had managed to take my skirt off and replace it with jeans, a very wise decision, though I think that Anita instigated that one. (I humbly thankyou!!)
So i was taken home by the navy guy (adrian) and the policeman (joel) somehow managed to undo buttons, remove shoes and crawl into bed. I awoke at 9am and the best way to describe how i was feeling is, 'it was like something small and fury crawled into my mouth and died, bringing with it a jackhammer which somehow this furry thing was operating whilst dead.'
With a little under an hour to get ready for another gathering. Once i sorted Picard out, i began the journey to the bathroom to shower and find something to wear out the Christmas party. That was successful! god how i love jeans.

I gathered presents and food stuffs that was a requirement (thankgod i cook saturday BEFORE the drinking!!) Amongst friend's, listening to carols, they did the eating, i did sleeping and occasional talking! Presents were exchanged and laughs were had by all. Simon and i managed to dose on the swingy thing, he made a rather good pillow!! Thanks Simon!! The party came to an end at 4pm, we said our byes, and merry christmases. A wonderful lazy Sunday with good friends and the occasional nap!!

Once home i snuggled on the couch with picard, we both napped a little, she ate, i ate as the munchies attacked BIG TIME! Picard went to bed, i watched a movie talked to people online, then went to bed and slept until 8am this morning!

And that people was other than the whisky my fantastic weekend.

I hope that your weekend was a great as mine.

With christmas 6 days away, and my holidays starting Friday, i look forward to resting and drinking, my way through until my return to work late January.

- Melody

Too Long

2005-12-16T14:25:00.000+11:00

Wow my lack of posts astounds me, I have been really busy socializing with real friends,
(not the kind that stab you in the back as soon as they think that there is a tasty bit of information about you that they can and will sell to the devil to save their own soul from eternal damnation, sorry to disappoint, you're all still dammed) working at wineglass bay, finalizing my accounting exam,which I passed with flying colors, learning to drive an excavator! and working on a subdivision.
Meeting and catching up with old friends from the armed forces, preparing for christmas and all that that intails. Brought series 2 of the invader zim action figures yesterday, including a 12 inch GIR!! Christmas bonus ROCKS!!

The other day I woke up to find that my precious bird, (whom I thought was a male) had laid an egg, turns out that my picard is in fact a Picardette!! so far my precious has laid 4 eggs, and I am so very proud of her, as she is handling it well, and being an angel.

This is my baby;

This weekend is going to be HUGE, with MASSIVE amounts of alcohol to be had, I have a costume party on saturday and a christmas party on sunday. Both of which are proving to be very interesting, all I can say is BRING IT ON, (you people know who you are)

Oh yeah and just to clarify my life is going GREAT, nothing bad has happened, no karma coming back to bite me on the arse, so where ever certain people got their information from, it is wrong and they are full of shit.

Well that about brings you all up to speed for October, November and part of December. I trust more information will be forth coming and i'll post the awsome pics i took at wineglass bay at a later date.
Have a good weekend all,
Melody
