- I ate my breakfast in my car, my lunch in my English Department meeting, and my dinner in front of the computer.  I have such a healthy lifestyle.  Totes.

- While we're on the subject of healthy, I think I probably walk like 5km a day during work.  My office in the Year 7 building is at least 250m away from the senior part of the school where most of my classes are.  I made at least 20 trips back and forth between classes, photocopying, meetings, briefings, collecting resources and setting up my laptop.  And these aren't leisurely strolls either; they're usually a rush to beat bell times, all the while carrying large stacks of books and/or a laptop.  I'm gonna be pissed if I don't lose weight by the end of all this.

- The school network was down when I got to work this morning.  No internet.  No emails.  NO PRINTERZKFJSDjdkasjdfsdkohgodwhut.  I survived.  Barely. 

- I was so tired that I totally forgot what day of the week it was on the way home.  For a while, I thought it was Wednesday.  And then I realised it was Monday and I wanted to CRY.

- Got my package from Erin and Devon (and Bailey) when I got home and it was just the awesomest thing.  I can't even say how much.

- Ingrid is trying to convert me to Claire/Gretchen.  Wutbutber.

- So.  Fucking.  Tired.  Can't. Even.  Thin...zzzzzzzzz.

Today I randomly got out my school planner from 2002 (Year 10) and started flicking through it. It was like opening a time capsule. There are so many things from that year that I had forgotten. One thing that I had completely forgotten about was that Erin had written a random message/quote/thing on each page for me to read throughout the year.

You go you big red fire truck! ...or is it a fire engine? I can't remember.

And in pencil next to it, I'd (later) written "Ask Jackie."

This now completely mystifies me. (Do you remember anything about fire trucks/engines, Jackie?)

More randomness )

I'm bored. I'm also PMSing. Not the best of combinations.

Today I almost broke my New Year's resolution whilst atop my exercise ball. Dangerous things, those exercise balls.

The days are creeping along. Too slowly and too quickly. It's February already and nothing much has changed. The holidays are almost gone though, and starting school in a week or so should mix things up a little over here. I've had a couple of rather stressful dreams in anticipation of it. The other day I dreamt that I was teaching a class and I couldn't read/pronounce the names of the roll. I ended up playing Simon Says with my students. Very, very stressful dream, that one.

This morning I dreamt that I was at a conference table type thing with a bunch of women, and Erin, Julia and Lyan were all there. Yes, all my exes. Erin was sitting to my left, Julia was sitting to the right of the woman who was to the right of me, and Lyan was across from me (if I believed in dreams having meaning, I'd wonder what that meant, heh). Actually, there were two Erins, and I couldn't tell which one was the real one, and I felt really bad/panicked because I felt that I should've been able to tell the real Erin from the fake Erin. And there was this robot incinerator thing we had to dismantle before it blew up. I was too slow destroying it and it exploded, and everyone died and I was left standing alone in the smoke. Rather dramatic, now that I think about it.

I'm constantly hungry these days, for some reason. Trying not to eat every single minute of the day though, because I really wanna get my ab dimples back. They're still there under all that fat. I know it!

For reasons completely unrelated to ab dimples... recently, I've been feeling a bit like a fraud. A failure. The things that I used to be proud of, that made me feel special, that I thought made up for all the other crap things in my life, I've kinda lost them. And I realise now that maybe they weren't that special after all, and I was just grasping at straws. What brought this on? Today, it was because I found a bunch of old classmates on Facebook. There's nothing quite like high school memories to make you feel like a nerdy loner again eh? But it's more than that. It's.. looking at people and seeing how they've changed, and how they're more than they were. And then looking at yourself, and realising that you're less than you were.

Wow, that was depressing.

In happier news, I'm really enjoying playing SingStar with Rianna. I love my sister. It's so nice to have someone to play with. Unfortunately she's started school again (Year 8!) and so she can't do my bidding keep me company 24/7 anymore. Today I helped her with her maths, science and art homework. It was fun. :)

Today I am like a pizza. The flavour is Emo Supreme. With extra cheese.

The backyard renovations are almost done. They've just gotta put the deck in now. I liked the old backyard better. The one that actually had trees. Now it's all tiles and concrete. I'll post some before and after pictures when they're done.

I have half a chakram buried under those tiles. It's probably all rotted away by now, though. So... correction, I have a rotted away chakram under all those tiles.

Have you ever wondered why flies fly into your kitchen, and then spend the rest of their lives bashing themselves against the window to fly out again?

I had a dream this morning that I found Erin in WoW. Her username was something really boring like ekmbuehler or something. I remember being surprised that out of all the servers there were, she had ended up on my one.

Today is the one year anniversary of Stormy's disappearance. Stupid cat. :-(

Here are some pics to celebrate his undying cuteness.

Stupid cat )

I miss him. A lot. :(
