Hey - whassup - me again. Yeah.

Well my little brother just left, he drove over from Brisbane for the day just to like hang out or whatever and that was sweet. We're both broke and there's stuff-all to do in the city with no money, but we still had fun all the same. Its sad really, we spend a lot of time reminscing nowadays. His boy is 3 and a half so he's seeing things full circle and that's amusing to watch. But I miss him terribly now. Even as I write this he'd still be in traffic. For only living like 2.5 hrs or so apart (geographically) we don't see each other half as much as we should. I miss him. I feel lonely now he's gone. Just having someone else around - and a change to the same old everyday routine - was a nice change. We just sat around mostly and watched 'The exorcism of Emily Rose' - yeah... he'd pull the p*ss out of me for my whole 'Pro-Soy' lifestyle (while he's a pizza, beer, footy and golf on the weekends type) Haha. But it was still fun. Went and gave him a tour of work. I have a late shift tonight. My boss said I could go in at 7:30. Aww. I feel loved. :D Bosses - when they like you they like you, when they hate you they're a**holes. Meh. So... 2 hours or so to go!

Yeah... things aren't different at work but it's manageable for the moment. Well, today is technically my Monday, so I wouldn't quite know. 3 days off, back to it now after my post easter rush. We didn't do the whole 12 hr shifts, we just didn't rake in as many as they were hoping, but I still managed to work in three days what I usually do in a week, so yeah... sweet. Even sweeter for the tax man I guess. F*****g accountants, that's all I'll say on the matter. (Gee poor Rob's copping it. In two consecutive posts I've affectively criticised both of his previous pre-band 'vocations'. Ooops. Sorry, knew there was a reason I'd never met the guy yet... haha *wink*)

Current song - The Hard Way - Fort Minor. Love this song.

Thinking - my shoes or my socks smell... haha. It's distracting, damnit! Oh, and I should probably get up and turn on a light; it's getting dark now. Meh.

New song - Hey man, nice shot - Filter

Well - Viking/Fribby/K/Friðbjörn - I WANT THAT STORY DAMNIT! Haha. I don't mince words if I can help it, haha. I'm so eagerly anticipating this post (when and if the day ever comes) I reckon I'll freak out (in a good way) when you do eventually share it. So excited! *spinning like a giddy schoolgirl cause she's so hyped up* Yeahhh... anyway...

But that guy from Russia thing - haven't heard from him since so that's a positive. On the other hand I have been talking to a guy from Hungary, he's sweet... you'd be amazed what I get up to when there's no one on the forums here some days *evil laugh*. But so far he seems sweet. Yeah.

My boss thing? Meh. The Rav-World? It's like... over in the writer's thread lately. That's even detracted from my CoB world prior to that! OMG, need to hurry up and finish the story so I can go back to drooling in that most holy of places, 'eh? *s******* Yeah, maybe. But thanks. Glad y'all think a trip into my exclusive universe of one here in my humble little journal is worth the journey. Honoured in fact. :D *hugs*

Hey Fiona *hugs to you too* Well, sounds like we're two peas in a really f*****d up pod, 'eh? Gotta love life's sense of humour sometimes... if it has one. But oh well, at least things seem to be going good for you on some respects (I hope??). Yeah, the eBay joke was bad. I don't have the comedic talent nor typical dry-capricornian-wit that my brother Michael has. My stomach's still sore from laughing at him all day... gotta love it. People who can make you laugh and do it well without the expense of others make life livable I reckon. Maybe I should bottle him and send him over to you to cheer you up a little? I'm sure he'd like the excuse to get away... but his missus and son however... on second thoughts, I'll keep him. But be sure I'm sending you good vibes anyway. Aww. Take care of yourself. Talk again soon, 'eh?

TC & TTYL,

-Rav :D

haha

I see you really do :p

I dunno though, I think kinda no one would read it, so maybe I'll just IM it to you or something. At least just to check, cause well it my first story in a different language....might be a bit raw or something...lol

You should see your brother more often though.

And yeah I know, it's way easier said, than done :rolleyes:

Okay, in order here;

Yes I do.

I would. You'd better. Sounds good. Probably... but send it anyway.

Yes I should.

Yes it is.

Haha. That's fun! Felt like an interview - The Fribby Interviews... hehe. Cool. 0_o

Okay, on a serious note for a second. I just recieved some rather disturbing news about an old friend of mine (from another friend who spent the arvo having cuppas and playing catchup! That part was cool, at least!). She's living technically on the street. Actually, technically she's living in a tent for the moment in this tea-loving-mutual-friend's backyard. Man... never saw that one coming. I thought she and her BF left town, last I heard that was the news. Aparently they didn't and she's living in a tent as WINTER approaches on the city. Jesus. Gives me chills just thinkin' about it. Problem is is that we haven't been on good terms for a while now, when I said an old friend I meant ex-friend. An ex-best friend that I no longer have contact with. This brings up several dilemmas. On a humanitarian front I feel I should help her but on a realistic betrayed-friend level I'm actually getting a small kick out of this. No I'm not. But part of me can't help but feel it's justified... gawd, long LONG story (those of you feeling inclined read back a few pages in my journal to get the gist. I don't feel up to repeating it... for once). Her room's still here that I could offer back to her... but I know if I do that then I'm adopting the same troubles that drove us apart in the first place, and I learnt my lesson the first time around. Thing is most people I know (we both know) don't like her anymore and would actually 'be glad' to hear this. I almost feel inclined to gloat and I know really that that sounds ****** awful but it's just the way I feel at the moment, bitchy I know. She burned a lot of bridges and now I feel like she is again waiting for one of us to reach out and help her up...

*silence*

Anyway yeah... wow... weird how things turn out at times huh? Spooked. 0_0

Well, better consider peeling my **** up out of this chair to get ready for work... *groan* I'd rather stay here and write... **** RL! But Southpark is on tonight!!! I haven't seen it in ages and like... well, aren't about to now either. Duty calls. Talk again later. Maybe update... we'll see.

Peace out,

-Rav :D

guess you could call that an interview...lol

okay then, yes ma'am, I'll send it as soon as it's ready...

your ex-friend has it bad, really bad, but I mean, what are you supposed to do? sounds like you don't owe them anything at all

well I really don't know what you should do, sorry, I'm not of much help here

^ That's true Sygy. Thanks :p

And it's Okay, Vi, I wasn't really looking for any divine intervention, I was venting more than anything. Venting is what I do best here I reckon... 0_o

Thanks anyway :D

Well, I have one day off before back to work tomorrow. Meh. 6 day weeks makes my bank accounts (and the tax man) very happy. Well, I had a nice surprise from my manager the other day. Got 2 free movie tickets as a way to say thanks for working over Easter. Sweet. Gonna go see 'The Davinci Code' when it comes out - the book was good. As for the other... *shrug* Maybe Scary movie 3 or something... or is it 4 now?!?

Anyways, excited. I finally bought my weights set today. Used my Christmas vouchers (plus $35) and bought a free-weights dumbell set. Boo-yah! Think that's good - should have seen me carrying the 20kg pack on the way home! XD Well I had fun. Not going nuts today - today I'm chilling out, being lazy(-ish) eating sweet-chilli cornships and drinking Pepsi Max and juice (not together :rolleyes: like, d'uh). Yeah. Well, not much else going on.

Have been contemplating getting my next tattoo. The whole LP themed one. Still dunno where. I was thinking of getting all the LP 'symbols' down my spine and getting the band members signatures in between them... yeah... I like that idea. Think is after getting a tat on the wrist and having that swell up on the bone for like a week straight, I know what I'm in for... and I still have to go to work in a hot kitchen like that... hmm. Anyway... shall see what happens when the new owners come in and take over officially at work next week. Spooky. I may be unemployed this time next week/week after. Oooh. Time will tell on that one I guess.

Well... gonna go now, play Sims for a bit. Clear my head. Well, take care,

TTYL

Wow, good luck for next week.

Your tattoo will look sexy though, but how will you move around the restraints of working in a fast paced industry using your hands?

good luccckkkk!

Hehe - evil laughter.

Um. Well, at the moment all's good. I'm sitting here listening to Korn (Blind) and chilling before work. Sweet. Went to the video store earlier with some friends from work and am sorta watching Zoolander in parts too... yeah, love that movie. Haha.

***.

Anyway started weights again today. Feel pumped. That's good... cause in like two days I will feel pain from today's efforts - but again, 'it's all good.' For a good cause and all... and I hate looking at my lunch-lady arms. I went to do self defence classes and that didn't work out. Night shift sucks in that regard. Oh well. Not much to really report. Haven't been able to write much today cause I only had one day off and I'm back to work this arvo. I was told by Lisa (work colleague earlier today) that the head chef called in sick last night and I was almost gonna be called in on my RDO - that would have sucked for me because I would have ended up working something like 10 days straight, no break. Bummer. Oh well, they didn't and I got a break, but the problem is with one day you only start to wind down really and before you know it it's back to the grindstone.

*groan*

Ever notice how much I gripe about my job? I do - and I should slap myself for complaining. Meh. My hands are too busy typing this verbal rambling to afflict any physical self harm at the moment... maybe later? 0_o

Okay... better shut up now. Yeah. Be back later at some point tonight undoubtedly but I can't guarantee that the insanity won't continue.

*silence... and a tumbleweed rolls by... purely for Viking's entertainment - haha* :p

*hugs*

TC & TTYL guys,

Those are two things out of few in this world, that never fail :p

meh, who doesn't rant about work? I mean, when you perform the autopsy of life, what's it really about? Work. That's the only thing you really have all life as adults. And when you don't, your life's colored with the fact you don't have a job.

so meh, it's all good

haha

*** bless therapy - my daily dose of Dr Phil!

Funny almost everytime I watch it there's something there that I can relate to, makes me think, makes me cry - and I like to believe when you have your eyes open the universe gives you clues all the time to questions you haven't even asked yet. It's very enlightening. I used to think this guy was a crock of **** - but nowadays most of the thinge he says just seems to make sense.

Anyway - *wipes eyes* back again.

Have spent the last two days just chilling. Got back to weights training. Work's going well so far. No biggie, really. We did 190 people a few nights ago - Pete the manager gave me big praise and that was sweet. Had a friend Lisa come over yesterday and we had a few drinks and it was sweet too. (Had to admit she and her friend Chris that came over with her, were quite shocked by the depth of my apparent Linkin Park obsession. I warned 'em... hehehe). But anyway, it's all good. Except for the wall of Bourdon - not sure how that one went over, but meh *shrugs* No one's geting hurt in the process, that's all that matters - theoretically.

I'm so used to feeling cut-off from the human race that its nice to have that human interaction from time to time. We're going out on Thursday to have a few drinks - that's really stepping out of my comfort zone - but its gonna be sweet. It's about time. Plus Chris is a Sims nut like me - so yeah, we really hit it off. Pity she's not a bloke or I'd be all over her like white on rice XD But not really.

0_0

But yeah... wow - not much else to really talk about. Have been watching a lot of movies. Getting out of my own headspace for a bit if you know what I mean. Yeah, not a bad thing. Sometimes I think we can be our own worst enemies at times and can get stuck in a rut. I hate ruts. Ruts are bad (Mr Garrison impersonation, sorry - Southpark got to me). But anyway, I guess things are normal other than that. Weather's getting colder and I'm curled up in front of the heater more and more each day. My power bill's gonna be astronomical - but the cats are enjoying themselves, so that's the main thing XD Bless 'em.

Oh - and the neighbours got to bring their son home this morning from the hospital, remember the premmie one? *** - he's so tiny and cute. It's a chick thing; we see babies and get 'clucky' then the baby goes away and we come back to our senses... probably like guys and sports or something, *** knows.

But anyway, yeah... better go. Was gonna try and finish up this story soon but with all this rest and relaxation I'm undertaking (at least mentally) that could take a bit longer than first anticipated. Not that I can see there being much objection... people are still reading it. Whoa - go figure.

*wink*

Okay, rant's over for another day. Thanks for humouring me. Back to the movies now... watched 'Zoolander', 'Team America', 'The Family Guy', 'House of Wax,' and 'Kill Bill', in the last 48 hours between work shifts. Hehe. Next - 'The Exorcist; beginning,' - and I have the first season of 'The Sopranos' to get reaquainted with. **** yeah!

Well take care whomever (if any) be reading this.

*hugs the computer screen*
