And the award for over dramatising goes to…

November 30th, 2003

So I feel like shit. My superior immune system has finally lost its battle against the masses. I sit (or sat I should have said) alone on my little island in the midst of a metric ass ton of sick people. My immune system valiantly fighting against the horde of viruses that wished to infect my body. At roughly 15:36:53 Zulu yesterday the battle was lost. In the background you could almost hear someone making the call “Immune system time of death 15:36:53″.

So here I sit now, 24hrs or so later and I’m patiently awaiting the call to mark my time of death. (Bit of a drama queen aren’t I :) )

Not much has been happening in the life of Matt recently. Had 6 days off work, which was pretty good. My roster sometimes has a way of working out where I get a nice stretch of days off like that. Usually I have to make up for it afterwards by working nearly 9 days in a row, but that’s ok, as usually they involve nightshifts at some point so that makes me happy again.

So I’ve been playing me a lot of Knights of the old republic lately. Wonderful game if you ask me. I’m playing through as an evil Jedi and its quite fun. Though this may be affecting me in real life, as I find myself making the force choke motion at people that piss me off. This inturn annoyes me even further when they don’t start choking and just look at me and say ‘what the hell are you doing fool?’.. my force powers must be on the blink.

What else have I been up to.. umm.. saw S.W.A.T. the other night. Not too bad at all. Don’t have much to say about it, but I really enjoyed watching it.

Oh, how could I forget. So I have spent the last few days at work reading Megatokyo. If you like manga you might like this comic. Personally I find the majority of it to be great. If i’m not laughing my ass off I’m impatiently awaiting my brain to process what I have read so that I can click on the next comic button. It took me two days and a bit to read all 490 or so comics in the archive so that I can be up to date with what is going on. 3y3 |_0/3 i7

So now that I have shared my thoughts, I’m going to go back to patiently awaiting my demise.

20 and 10 … or if you’re really doing well 40 and 20 ….

November 29th, 2003

Now since the only time I ever draw any visitors to this site is when I discuss the ‘S’ word, i’ve just got to bring this one up.

For sure this is going to be on the discussions books starting next week.

Without sounding like a typical male, but after hearing these two sets of numbers, i’m actually rather chuffed :P
Couple that with the fact that I at least meet the average measurement (no, i’m not getting into disclosure, nor will I be drawn into the virtual pissing contest…. *every* man wants to jump in and tell you he’s ‘above average’ ….. I hate that… I say average.. nothing more and nothing less… you find out if you are with me the truth on the matter….)

This is possibly the best news i’ve heard all week. :)

Ladies, gents… comments??

Great reads, hugs galore and the realisation that it’s better to be the better person….

November 28th, 2003

First things first. Thanks to ‘Jessicainprogress’ (I will check if I can link to her, she seemed a little shy) for her beautiful e-mail as I posted on her comments section after reading her blog.
I wish you all the best, and agree that cherishing and loathing love at the same time isn’t always a bad thing. (and yes, i’ll reply back to you personally as soon as I can, i’m just a little busy atm! :) )

Here’s the line, don’t cross it

November 26th, 2003

*** WARNING NOTE: This post was written ‘in the heat of the moment’, but not posted for quite some time after the post date. The only way regular readers would know this post is to read the archives, and if you do that, well you do so at your own risk…. ***

Today yet another chapter in Adam’s Book of Complications has been added. Now because he is currently working like an absolute bastard at work and won’t be able to post today he’s encouraged me to.

This morning at work he received a mild dressing down from a supervisor. The cause of this rebuke was because someone had actually made a complaint to a supervisor regarding Adams behaviour. That someone had felt uncomfortable by Adam being himself, loud and jovial, and giving his Adam hugs (patent pending.)

That’s fair enough, that’s someone else’s own prerogative. But to me if ou have a problem with someone go straight to the source. If Adam gives you a hug or tells a dirty joke that you’re “offended” by, tell him. Once you make something known to Adam he will go out of his way to make sure that it’s followed. He’s uber-sensitive to other people feelings, and making sure people feel comfortable and accepted seems to be part of his genetic make up.

If you have issues with someone, be a woman pick yourself up,walk over to him and say

“I’m offended by…., I don’t like it when….”

That’s all I’m saying. You have a voice, use it.

Because I can guarantee that if you’d done that to Adam he would’ve said ” oh fuck, I didn’t realise I’m sorry” and backed the fuck off.
You didn’t do that, instead he has to censor his behaviour, speech, tone and attitude towards everybody he works with, and some people he socialises with so he doesn’t run the risk of you being offended.

But I’m personally not buying this for a second. The person who has made the complaint, who will remain nameless, is someone who Adam has enjoyed not only a good working relationship but they’ve hung out outside of work also.
If someone gives you the creeps or is doing something that you’re not cool with then don’t fucking catch up on weekends. Or send childish fucking petty sms’ to him. Or persist in helping certain toxic childish girls spread petty rumours around. Or continue to speak with him as normal, right up until he’s told that you’re uncomfortable with him by somebody else.

And to another certain girl who is on Adam’s list of acquaintances, who yet again is not directly involved with this but just sitting on the sidelines. Who has made it her business to know what’s been going on in his life, by sneakily befriending people who were close with him, and then spreading malicious rumours. Rumours that are based on lies, misinformation or hyperbole, rumours that are actually hurting the two people involved who are good decent people and don’t deserve to be dragged to your level.

I can assure you that your previous behaviour towards Adam was something only the most desperate, sad and lonely people could display. I can also assure you that he regrets any and all his previous contact with you, and to me the ideal resolution would be for you to grow the fuck up, come to your senses, get a fucking grip and stop being such a dirty disrespectful little girl. Leave both of them alone and get yourself some help, they’re both better off with you in their circle of friends.

You’re a childish, nasty, malicious, hurtful, spiteful and manipulative girl.

And mostly I have this to say to you, you’re a cunt.

Popular girls amplified and the sore throat effect

November 25th, 2003

So more of the same really… I think everybody I know is busy at this point in time.. busy busy busy.. nobody has time to do anything except work and (hopefully) sleep…

I’m so busy atm, I don’t even have time (or honestly, the inclination) to pleasure myself. Bit scary really. I was talking to Eve about this and she lamented my situation (she thinks i’m an idiot, but nevertheless).

So the project soldiers on, but I finally decide to check my voicemail (voicemail can never be good, someone always wants something, and my phone rings/sms’s all fucking day)….. and guess what… the technician will be here from 7:30 am to hook the services up… yay for me, yay for no sleep… but at least it will be done so that’s a bonus…

It’s past midnight and I haven’t turned into a werewolf just yet

November 25th, 2003

bah… no sleep….

Went to Numero Uno as part of the awesome foursome (yes, great name stolen from our legendary oarsmen, but you get that)….. and dashed away a couple of vouchers.

Conversation was up to the usual high standards, but we all continue to see a segment of each other that we both feel comfortable with, but also respect enough not to dig too deeply as to upset. I enjoy knowing that we all have our own shit brewing underneath the surface, and we’re starting to recognise each other’s strengths and weaknesses, but not using that information for exploitation or disrespect.

I had all sorts of good vibes… but i’m sure they’ll return

November 23rd, 2003

Anywhoo….. some things will just have to play themselves out and we’ll see how that all goes…

The big news is folks is that ……. there’s been a tragedy over the weekend….. and i’m still rather scarred by the whole event. I don’t know how i’m going to live without them in my life, but i’m going to give it my all……

Here is a recent photo of my loved ones lost….

Serious Stuff..

November 23rd, 2003

Morning All,

Sorry to be slapping down the all-serious on everyone on this fine Sunday morning (though, I will be at work all day, so it can’t be that fantastic!), but I need to get this out as it has been bought to my attention via concerned channels.

I have been informed that if corrections/alterations are not made to this site by 9am Monday morning, that a character definition case will be brought against the owners/authors of this site.
I have spoken with a solicitor in regard to this matter who has informally read over the site and indicated that there is no material which is in breach of the appropriate act. (comments along the lines of ‘no signs of willful harm, no signs of direct slander referencing individuals/companies which will cause damage to reputation’).

However, I was also informed that as a sign of good faith, and as an appropriate first step in the negotiation process I am to publicly state the following:

If there is any person who feels that material posted about them is of a defamatory, with evidence of how the text breaches the appropriate act, please reference: the exact text, your personal details including specific references to how the text is addressing you in a defamatory manner, and any supporting evidence which may assist in my investigating your complaint.

This is by no means an indication that any texts/references will be removed. I will provide feedback as to any person indicating that materials about them are defamatory. If sufficient and appropriate evidence isn’t produced, then I won’t remove or alter the post.

Thanks for your assistance folks. If anything comes of this, you’ll be sure to see it all unfolding here.
Loving all your work
A

Edit: At not time has a justified formal complaint been raised against this site.
I have had a discussion with one party in relation to posted materials on this page, with the appropriate information being clarified publicly.
Subsequently I have taken the liberty of not making direct references (aside from: I saw x person on Friday night…. that kind of chatter) on this website to reduce the chances or anything being raised further.

Matt and his bad side…..

November 22nd, 2003

Ok, lets start here

Now… Matt and the old lady incident….
Hmmm perhaps I’ll backtrack a bit.

I have been friends with Matt for a very long time now. I don’t know how many years, quite honestly I prefer to measure it in beers, so quite a long time. And in his infinite kindness he used to come pick me up and drive me home lots… the fact that he only lived around the corner was very helpful. He’s a very lovely man and if I were one of them queer types I probably still wouldn’t pork him, but that’s really no reflection on his niceness.

Side note for Matt…. the romantic bath thing? what the fuck is up with that? I can’t compete! Sure I’m doing ok at pulling charm out my arse but you go and raise the bar like that! *falls to his knees rocking and muttering “must find most romantic thing in the world..”* I think that next time we are out it’s your round…. men around the world are ready to kill you…..

So we were cruising round with the boys (not uncommon in the hood), scoping for bitches. Well ok we were going to the shop cause it was pd’s 21st and none of us had got him a present, but the chicks were flocking around us, we had to beat them off with sticks… honest *scratches nuts & coughs*. After much driving and taking the piss out of pd (how many assholes do we have in this car anyway?) we spot it…. the car park.

“There Matt, there!!” was the cry emanating from the mighty silver lancer… “But there’s an old lady waiting for that one….” was Matts reply… followed by a brief silence…… “Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt,
Matt… (oh you get the picture) …, Matt”. Matt promptly planted his foot on the right hand pedal, and drove straight into the spot. He bent to the will of his mates, we were very proud and impressed… we had a car park right near the door for the centre. What followed however was wrong.

Through tears, and cries of laughter we notice and old lady bashing on Matts window… “I was waiting for that… I’ve been waiting there for ages!” Its at this point that I wish I could draw you a picture…. hmmmm brb.

Ok here is the picture…

Now you’ll notice the indicators on the old ladies car….

Matts reply to the old lady was “I didn’t see you indicating”….
Pretty fair comment…. of course we’ll just ignore the fact that we had passed her sever times before Matt stole her spot…
