I'm the proud owner of a new wardrobe. Quite unexpectedly I was informed today by phone that it would await me at home after work. I'm happy I actually need one. Friends.

Friends of my flatmate were moving together and we inherited excess furniture. Convenient IMO. So when after a long day at work I arrived at home, I found a new cupboard in the kitchen, unassembled, and my wardrobe in the bath, unassembled. In a word, the flat was a mess. I found that comical because knowing the actors I had expected nothing but since I got the call at noon.

My other flatmate was much less thrilled. After a long day at work, wanting to have dinner with a friend she couldn't use the kitchen and lamented about having not been informed, being near hysterical. Well, I guess that's what you get for 'being there' one day a week. I knew about the cupboard for two weeks, and had frankly expected her to know too. The wardrobe was a surprise. Well, I'd have thought my flatmate would make the effort to call her, or drop a note, but I guess she just had to be evil. Bad girl.
That I and my other flatmate then had to assemble the cupboard and move the old furniture downstairs was probably an expression of the sentiment: 'I have decided to share the effort. I have worked all day to get the suff here. I'm finished. You have fun now. But indeed, it is an improvement for our kitchen.

I'm happy I had beer in the fridge

 

Indeed. For the most part, anyway.

 

Go help me in techno-magic please.

 

Teaching ESL to immigrants is not the worst job I've ever had, but it is far from the best!

 

How many flavors of Extra gum are there? Lesee, there's mint, mint and, oh yeah, mint.

 

I need an enama! Nothing more to say! Thank you for listening!

In other news, I am no tvery awake right now!

 

I couldn't wait for Bigpond to send a replacement modem, so we got a new one.

And it took 9 hours for the net to unblock us. Still, the fact that I'm posting here means it was a sucess.

And now...

 

I wonder if I can steal one of hubby's oatmeal cream cookies?

 

A greeting from Ubuntu! I just made the switch to linux today! I still got my xp partition mainly for gaming however.

 

A nice relaxing day before one hellishly long weekend. I just hope I can survive this ballbuster...

 

Had an interesting night last night, got invited out for pizza by a mother who apparently (according to her daughter, a VERY close friend of mine) is usually something of an over-bearing over-protective cranky so-and-so! Was such a shock that apparently it took my friend about half an hour to pick her jaw up off the car floor and replace it...

 

Weeeeeeeeee!

Got tomorrow off!

Days off are fun.

 

I passed the exam, so now I am officially A+ certified. In the near future, I think all it will mean is that my family will try to hit me up for free computer repair service. I doubt me charging for babysitting gave them any clue...

 

Steal it!

Bored.

 

I scream "Ford Turkey"?

(c'mon, they're running out of Car Names™; I expect to see the unveiling of the new "Chevrolet Noun" any day now )

ION, still feel like crap, but at least it's crap that can be shoveled into a uniform and sent off to work.

Cough drops will suppress my body-wracking attempts to hurl tiny bits og phlegm out of my lungs and my sinuses aren't that bad.
