Went back to work today… there’s still plenty of other people off work with various illnesses, poor things! Had a quiet morning - returning emails and phone calls from people who desparately want to see me. Nice to be popular?
Went for a review appointment at the doctor’s after lunch - I still have fat tonsils [...]
It seems I have restored my sensitivity to caffeine while being off these past couple of weeks. On normal work days, I’ve built up to having a cup of tea with breakfast, a coffee when I get to work at 8:30 while reading emails, another one about 10:30 when I hit mid-morning, and then have [...]
A little item in today’s SMH collum 8 - scroll to the thrid item:
“This email was received by several people working in a Telstra call centre yesterday,” writes Padraig Collins, of parts unknown. “If you use it, please do not mention the woman’s name, or from which Telstra office it has come.” OK, but gee [...]
After feeling run down for most of last week, and pushing myself hard over the weekend (ie Dan’s farewell on Saturday night and the fun run on Sunday morning) it hit me Sunday afternoon. Turned out that the sore ear and then the tiredness, subsequent fever and chills would be Tonsillitis (sub acute, for sure, [...]
Shame I can’t really be bothered moving to do either :p I think I’ll try the steak… get the pan heating. I have a really nice pack of three T-bones. One for me, one for Rish… another one for Rish for when I make him eat alone on Monday because I’m getting my dinner and [...]
So, my predictions were wrong. I was a bundle of energy at work today :) May have something to do with the levels of caffiene in my blood, that I started the day with a flu shot, or tha I bought a new rice cooker so am currently making sushi for dinner tonight and lunch [...]
During my supervision today, we were talking about not overloading at work, as in actually having the time to do anything (apparently my stats were down last month, which is a tad irritating given I felt like I was working so hard! Hopefully the couple of sick days weren’t taken into account and that might [...]
So, to whoever it was who stole Rish’s laptop last night… I hope karma gets you. Or you realise that you’re better off just giving it back for that no questions asked reward. I don’t care about the laptop, it’s just the work he had inside of it :(

Did my second PUMP class. Feeling quite [...]
Last week was one of the rare weeks of working 5 full days this term… and they were certainly full days! I’ve usually left work by around 4:30 on a Friday, but and 5:30 a few of us were just finishing up … with the feeling of “we need a drink” *sighs all around*.
I still [...]
I love it when little old Australia makes it onto the BBC world news broadcast heh. Aww look what’s happening out in the colonies… aren’t we a republic yet? Hold your horses girl, we just got the sorry done, and you’re pushing for a republic? small steps, we’ll get there one day…
Was relieved to see [...]
