| AUGUST 2005 You probably don�t know this (mainly because you are an electrical appliance and I try to keep secrets from you because I�ve heard the rumours!) but I have purchased an apartment. Yes, an apartment. Some might call it a flat, but I don�t because I am a classy lady and I refuse to live in a simple �flat�! (hehe yeah, I really should stop kidding myself�.. one of these days) For this reason, most people think I�m crazy. Yeah, I don�t have a great deal of money to play with from week to week. But I also don�t have to ask to put a poster up on the wall (not that anyone ever does). I don�t have to worry about being kicked out. I don�t have to worry about overly anal or underly anal housemates. I don�t have to worry about the impending doom that is, someone not doing the washing up for a week and a certain cockroach and his extended family coming over for dinner. So it�s fairly sweeeet. I do live next to a couple of bogans who are awake all the time screaming expletives at each other. But that�s fine! That�s what Marrickville is all about! That and cheap Vietnamese food and the free titty show at the RSL. I also have the option to up and leave at any moment and get someone in to be paying my mortgage off for me! So as much as I thought I had got the whole travel thing out of my system but recently I have been just randomly looking at job prospects elsewhere and have noticed a lot of jobs in the UK that I can do. So who knows? One day I may be back there. ZOO! On a lighter note! I won a heater and a $10 voucher for Woolworths last night! I also got to see Interpol for free! I would be more excited if I liked them� but hey, I never turn down something free� and the support band were awesome. I have also been getting slightly more friendly with the whole concept of going near the beach. I have generally hated the beach for most of my life (despite my mother living 2 blocks from a quite loverly beach)�. Oh I don�t know! I still don�t think I�d feel inclined to ever swim at one again (much like my incredible fear of spa baths and public swimming pools � if you�d seen what I have seen!)� they are nice to sit on and eat vegemite sandwiches! Ooh that reminds me! aah i'll do it later. Now that I have a whinging pom also sharing my habitat with me, life has become somewhat more touristy. I didn't really realise how much cool stuff there is around my place! (it also helps when your place of work is a major sponsor for the zoo - FREE FREE FREE!) It was also an awesome experience getting drunk with my father and showing the Smiley one what a real bbq is. I know also have someone to drag out dancing with me any day i choose! Brilliant! The only downside really... is that most of the time i can't understand a word he is saying (unless i make him speak in a high-pitched voice)... oh! and that he only eats sausages. I hate the guy that workds in the lab next door.... and volunteers to come and vapourise him from my life? frankfurter converter |
