oh my godddddddddd. man i used to update this every day. hahaha

the other day i was in an underwear shop trying some stuff on, in the fitting room next to me was a girl. she sent her mum off to go and get some different sizes and whatever. the whole time her mum was gone i could hear her cellphone camera going hard out. we both left our changing rooms at the same time, and she was seriously about 12. good lord.

i cant remember if i ever mentioned it here. i had an eye screen and found out i have glucomaery type stuff on my eyes, which prompted me to eat better, exercise more, and have my medication looked at. i have done ok, but not so much this week. damn it :( ive slipped a bit with my meals, mainly dinner. but the good eating still is outwaying the bad.

joe has been in hawaii for the last week or so, im sure ill start missing him soon....... hahahaha

here is a bad non lined up panorama from the soccer on saturday night

this afternoon joe and i went for a walk. i had a play with making panoramas. next time hopefully the weather is nicer, and i take more photos to make these better.

this morning i woke up and was like oh my god i think its my dads birthday. i text mum and she was like TOMORROW! thank god.

so i text my sisters and they were like shit. so in my head i decided joe could organise us a digital photo frame, chuck some photos on it and send it off for us. while typing the email to him i worked out this wasnt really going to work.

so i spent my morning researching digital photo frames, i found the perfect one at dick smith, that was in stock at both lower hutt stores, so that was all good.

i got joe to get some photos off facebook and a few others we had taken a few years ago, and email them to me at work, while i ran out in my 30 minute lunch break and got the photo frame.

i get to dork smiths, no one looks like they want to help, there were none of the photo frames i wanted on the shelf. i thought fuck this and ran downstairs to the other dick smiths. i get in there and there is a guy at the counter yelling out for someone to help him. i went and looked, there is was one with about a kilometre tape all over it. so i ran back upstairs and asked for help. the only place that had them was downstairs, but none of them were new. what?

so i ran to noel leemings, they had no good ones. went to farmers found the perfect one, same size and resolution as the original one, but with a bonus of a nice wooden frame. was $200 but on sale to $10 more than the original one. so i grabbed it.

get back to work 10 minutes late. then i tried to load photos on it, nothing would work! it had no fucking internal memory. luckily my boss was being lovely and let me run out and buy a memory stick. got the photos loaded, the frame wrapped and on the last courier of the day.

$10 says he doesn't appreciate it

so i have spent 99.9% of today on the couch either watching bathurst or asleep.

i spent most of the day hoping my team hrt, or the skaife/murphy combo would win. i would happily take any holden winning, just so i could ring dad (ford fan) and gloat.

well hrt won, skaife/murphy 4th, and only one ford in the top ten (only five in the top 20!!).

woohooo, what a race!

sadly jesus lost, but he was driving a ford, so there you go.

so i havent updated in ages, i blame twitter.

on wednesday i had my eyes checked. turns out blood vessels in my eyes have been leaking, one quite close to the optic disk thingo, soooooooo i have to go and have some lazer stuff done to my eyes.

this was also the wake up call i probably needed to sort my shit. since then i have cut out diet coke ( i was drink about 3l day) so far today i havent had any, and i am eating much healthier. its been 4 days and oh my god i want some cake.

on pay day i will go and buy some gym clothes, and go and join les mills 21 days for $21 thing. i am pretty bad at going to the gym, so i thought this might be a good starting point, not too much money lost if it doesn't work out. BUT IT WILL.

i have an appointment at the diabetic clinic on wednesday, so hopefully talking to the doctor will give me some ideas.

*goes to have some water and a rice wafer*

today is fathers day, i sent him a cd that sounded offensive to my ears, and a box of chocolates.

he reckons he is coming down in october, but he has been saying for the last ummm 4 months that he is coming a in few weeks, so we will have to wait and see if he actually does. i need to convince him redoing my bathroom is a good holiday project.

on the subject of my dad, here is how he moves around. this has taken place over the last twenty years

start in subdivision number one. build house, build house up road, build house across road, build house in front of house, move to near by subdivision two, build house, move to next door subdivision three build house, move back to subdivision two, build house, build house around corner, build house up road, build house on section backing on to current house. while building the houses you live in, build a number (like 10) of houses for sale dotted around subdivision 2 that you move into for a few weeks while your actual houses are being built.

and this is why i had to look on trademe and real estate sites to find his current address.

yesterday i bought some new car wash. it kind of smells like lemonade iceblocks, i cant stop sniffing it. it made me car realllllllyyyyyy shiny

my mum has taken up golf, so to make sure she fitted in with the cool kids, i bought her some fluffy club covers. she wasnt home so i decorated the tree by her front door with them.

this weekend i bought a dust buster, after having to wait 24 hours for it to charge, it was the most disappointing purchase of my life.

this week im not really sure what there is to do at work, my boss has been away, so i have caught everything up. hopefully i can get a few days off, so i can sleep.

oh my giddy aunt, i have just been ice skating in a pretend igloo in the square in christchurch.

it was so much fun, if the skates didn't crush my feet, no matter what size i got, id still be down there.

last time i went ice skating i was about ummm 8, so like 18 years ago. after two laps clutching the handrail, i was good to go.

i took about 160 photos today. so i guess i will have to update my website at some point.

we are off to queenstown for the night tomorrow, then back to christchurch for the day and then home.


mmmm sore feet

hello livejournal, i have been busy loving twitter

my car is all fixed, but only after 4 rounds at the panelbeater.

my voice has changed into a mans one :| its nice when people called at work and get a nice HELLO *squeak*.

i think i need to make a lemon honey drink.

i have tried making soup, like 4 times now, every time it just lands up like floaty shit in water. gross

so while driving home today some cunt though rear ending my perfect pretty car would be an awesome thing to do.

so my bumper is fucked, my back is sore. his car is fucked (hahaha) and he got a ticket from the police HAHAHAH.

buttttt my excess is $500, and if this asshole doesn't cough up soon i will have to pay it until he admits fault or it goes to court :|

officemax keeps sending me ugly monkey soft toys, lupin is in love.

today, after supervising exams, joe and i went into wellington. we parked in a stupid card parking building that only has one new machine that can take credit card or cellphone payments. we were about to walk to the other end of the building to pay, when a lady came over and asked if we had a ticket, we said no and she gave us her all day parking thing, but the deal was we had to pass it on when we left, as she had been given it by someone else earlier.

so after lunch we went back to the car, and had to find someone to pass the parking ticket on to. there was no one around :( having supervised exams earlier i had some blutac in the boot so i had given and was going to blutac the ticket to the machine, but luckily a guy and his kid turned up, so success. he was really happy!

that gj gardener ad is stupid and awkward, like tvnz trying to use txt speak. here are the dorkss on the broadbandsss

so this afternoon i washed my car. in doing this i managed to a) cut myself, b) flash the neighbours, c) vomit, d) have the hose explode in my face 3 times.

haha the strip is on some random channel tonight. i used to love it.

someone needs to stop talking over the tv. omg

i have done lots of little car things, and its all looking really good now.

i have a giant cookie, almost dinner plate sized. mmmmmmmmm

man so my old car just sold. i totally cried :(

joe and i just took the stereo out of it :(

mannnnnnn :(

so ive pretty much been peeing myself all day because my car was getting serviced/warranted.

all it needed was an oil, and oil and air filter change, and the spare tyre put on, because one was just on the limit, the spare tyre was brand new.

i am so so so pleased.

also i was told the smart key was broken and would cost a few grand to replace it. i put new batteries in ($8.98) and it worked. omg

so happy

so today is new car day. i was kind of shitting myself about picking up the car because i had bought it with out even seeing it in person.

so i went and collected it and it was perfect! its so tidy, and nothing seems wrong. it goes for a warrant tomorrow, hopefully it wont need anything so i can get a head unit that gets any other radio station than the breeze like right now.

the only dumb thing was, i had it sent from auckland to wellington, the fucking jerks at turners received it on friday, but they didn't know why. i rung on monday asking about it and they said it wasnt there. wtf.

i burnt my hand, it is so so so itchy.

my new car isnt here yet :( im on the hunt for car audio, and mags. matt black 17's are not easy to find.

today at work we played jenga for most of the day. a lady bought her dog in, it refused to get up and leave until i had given it a cuddle and a pat. so cute.

itchy itchy

pirates pirates

i just bought a mercedes benz

eek im selling my car on trademe for a $1 reserve.
