Here Comes Xmas

November 30, 2008 · 0 comments

Tree went up last night, amid the drinking of cocktails (I only broke one decoration :p)…

Xmas Tree

What do you think of Rish’s “addition” to the tree this year? It’s gold, so in theme, right?

Psycho.

November 29, 2008 · 0 comments

So, I started in on the books on the awesome bookshelf we have here… The first one I picked up was some linguistics text book on language change, but it was written in a hard to read British manner, so i got bored.

And moved on to American Psycho.

I had to start somewhere…

buy the book from The Book Depository, free delivery

Not sick, but I'm not well

November 29, 2008 · 0 comments

Paranoia, paranoia, everybody’s coming to get me.

Well, at least I have a new song in my head for the day…

I’m up well too early for a day when i was going to be lazy and sleep in. It’s sunny so I’ll have to do washing, go to the gym… maybe go to the Oxfam Christmas fair?

And on the health front – no glandular picked up on blood tests, Rish is doing better… I have a sore throat, but if I ignore it, it will go away.

Viral Signs

November 24, 2008 · 0 comments

I’m like Typhoid Mary or something. First I infect our PC with a virus (granted it had a million year old virus checker on it and that was it) by downloading unchecked software, but now I think I’ve infected Rish with something. HIS dr is thinking Glandular Fever, and since I haven’t been retested since my first bad dose of tonsils in May, it could well be that I’ve been carrying that around the whole time. Dammit. Hopefully it’ll at least mean that I should be done with it.

“The virus is making me want to kiss you”

We’ll see hey?

(and the PC virus is the reason for my scarcity online)

A win, nonetheless

November 22, 2008 · 0 comments

It’s great to win movie tickets, this week I got tickets to Choke and the Mirrors… but neither of them is still showing in the Canberra cinemas that the vouchers would be valid for! Needed to be quicker on that one.

Instead, we will pay (well use the gift vouchers my mother keeps sending us) to go see the new Bond movie. Something to do on a cold (I think it’s meant to top at 15! a week out from summer!) drizzly day. It’ll probably be quite busy. Hope we get reasonable seats!

Riddle?

November 17, 2008 · 0 comments

If a bridge can take 150kg per square metre, and we gather up a whole lot of people, pait them up so there are people piggybacking each other to make 150kg piggybacked people (e.g a 80kilo guy piggybacking a 70 kilo girl)… can we make the bridge collapse??

How many people does it take to collapse a bridge

Or, if we add just one bike…

Cherries!

November 17, 2008

It’s definately cherry season… you just have to know where to buy them! A local guy was selling them – 2 kilos for $8 at the Kingston Old Bus Depot Markets yesterday… so Mum (who was down for the weekend) split a box with me. I just might have to go back next Sunday for [...]

P&F week 2

November 12, 2008

Focus: pecs and shoulders! It’s interesting to work through why you might be able to get more stretch on one side than another… I was able to get a better pec strectch on my left side today… and this seemed to be because of my weaker and less tight left arm muscles. Not that I [...]

Sitting.. all day?

November 12, 2008

We have a PD day today, where we’re off to the AIS to sit and listen to all the wonderful things out workmates have achieved in the past 12 months. Problem is half the presentations are by Speechies on things that I was a part of *yawn* at least we’ll make sure everyone knows what [...]

Ahead of Myself

November 10, 2008

Really, I can’t get too excited about doing a masters or even some coursework when i come home feeling blah after having a headache for much of the the day, coupled with a sore throat… thank you Dimetapp cold and flu for at least keeping the sniffle away and the cough down. My Burlesque course [...]

A Masters?

November 10, 2008

I’ve been looking at doing further study for awhile now… partially to extend myself and my knowledge, but also so that if I do wind up tagging along with Rish to a country where you need a masters degree to be recognised as a speech pathologist (yeah, don’t get me started – just because they [...]
