| Thursday, 11th December, 2003. Today I did nothing but sit on the internet ALL day. I need to get off my lazy butt and get a job. I quit my job in August, finished up in September, because I hated it. I planned to have a couple of months off, then go back to work. In October I found out I was pregnant. Not planned but a very nice surprise, so I have been taking it VERY easy in my first trimester. Now that's over though, so I need to get a job to pay some bills before "The Blob" comes. Krusty and I had a good laugh today over the discovery of a missing pair of purple underpants, found in a pair of jeans unworn for some time. That was the highlight of my day - besides collecting the mail. Aahhh, the daily trip to the mailbox. At least tomorrow I will get myself motivated enough to visit Kylie and her gorgeous girls, then go to the Powderfinger concert. |
| Saturday, 13th December, 2003. Saw Powderfinger play at Entertainment Centre last night. Rock out Nora! I was tired after though, so just went home. So I'm officially an old fart, going home early on a Friday night. It just sort of crept up on me. Buggar. Have been boring again today - trying to get my Sim famous, its damn hard work! Might go have a nap soon, before its time for DAZBO BURGERS! Yesterday I popped over to Kylie's and it was good to catch up again. I don't know why I always leave it so long between visits. Megan and Sasha are growing so fast, and of course, are still gorgeous! Will have to get Kylie to send me a recent photo and start a "friends" page in the photo album. |
| Thursday 18th December, 2003. I picked up the "Return of The King" tickets (arh!!! yay it is FINALLY HERE!!), in preparation for Boxing Day and visited some friends this week. I've also managed to finish off my resume. Tomorrow should be nice, I'm off to see Chippo and Holbrook down the pub. These days I am off the beer though and get the fabulous luxury of drinking pure Lemonade. Joys! Daz started his new job Monday this week, and so far is really enjoying it. He is so much more relaxed at home and enjoys coming in to tell me about his day - and of course I love to hear about it - serious, no sarcasm intended at all. I am really happy for him - he's made a great decision. I have written a letter this week to an old friend who I haven't seen or spoken to in about 6 years. The friendship didn't end very well, though I love him greatly, and I have been nervous about getting in touch with him again. I hope he responds - then I won't moan about it every time I get drunk. |
| Friday 19th December, 2003. It has not been a good day. I awoke this morning to discover my poor pizza had been maliciously assaulted, and there was only enough for lunch. Then I tried to go shopping, and according to an Anglican Church in North Ryde, "The Greatest Gift is the Son of God", which lands me in a pile of steaming number two's. I don't have the Son of God and it appears that all the stores have sold out - I wonder if people will be disappointed with the miserly offerings I'll be distributing in lieu of the Son of God. On the way home I almost hit another vehicle, because it was so hot. Apparently it was 36 degrees, so it would have been hotter than a nun's crumpet in my car that has NO AIR-CON!! Just want to thank the woman who sped along and beeped her furious horn at me and my heat induced mistake. By the time I got home I was in tears - Welcome to pregnancy! I was so hot that my legs were itchy - my blood was surely at boiling point. I had a COLD bath, and was feeling fine until I got out and found I was covered in red hot welts and the itching started again. So did the tears...oh the shame and humiliation. Not a good day. |

| Saturday 20th December, 2003. The evil pizza thief turned into a Mashy-Bearing-Angel-With-Great-Timing, so all is well in the food realm. No need for a mutiny or public beheading. Xmas is almost wrapped up, just a few last minute acquisitions to be made tomorrow. Word on the street is that hormones are on the quiet today. Jolly good. Ongoing battle to clear my tarnished name is STILL raging. Hopefully I can resolve the issue promptly and rid the world of the dread of my old webpage. Have been waging this private war for about a week now. Who knew it would be so taxing??? |

| Monday 29th December, 2003. After a mighty battle of 11 emails and 13 days, my war is over and I have won. The dreaded website I created 10 years ago has been erased from the universe and I am good to go about my business again. Phew! The past week has been brilliant - The wait is now over: I have seen "Return of the King". Actually now I just have to sweat it out for the extended version next November. I am expecting big things, seeing as I thought some scenes felt too short. Otherwise, the movie was everything I hoped it would be. Christmas was nice, spent with family. Darren's Mum, Mary stayed Christmas Eve and met my parents for the first time. It was also the first time she'd been to our house. Everyone was relaxed and got on well. My parents gave me enough presents for 20 kids, and that didn't include the 2 sacks they filled for the baby. I didn't get a single crap present, and I was safe as no-one else gave God's Only Son either. Need to start looking to finishing my Fancy Dress Costume now, as New Year is only a few days away! Baby is 14 weeks today and I have a little bump, which started appearing noticably just before Christmas. Will try to get "Before and After Bump" photos in the Baby Album later. |

| Saturday 7th February, 2004. Spent the day responding to emails, as I have become gainfully employed once more and had a backlog to sort through. Below is a copy of one sent to my sisters. I wonder how I get caught up in their crazy world but then I remember how much it makes me laugh, and it doesn't matter how I got there. Anyway, here 'tis: Dearest Sigfreid and Abbott, It makes Barry wonder why Bob (Rev) has no monkey to speak of, but it is nice that he healed that wolf. I'd like to Thank him for his addition to my guest book, but I'm not sure how to get in contact with him. Hey Fellas, I've had an offer to GrowA giantFreakP***s.inside, do you think I should do it? And would it be better inside my car or inside my body? Thought it might look nice on the dashboard, but I'm worried about possible infringement notices arising from having a giantFreakP***s blocking my driving vision. Then again I wouldn't want it falling over and smacking my kid in the head, so inside my body is out also. Conundrums! Siggy, your email the other day reminded me about the time we were actually in touch with Clint. I wasn't sure if you'd remember, and I thought Abbott would really like to see how great he was, so I have attached that picture of us with him. Although he was looking a little pixelated that day, he still had that unmistakable "make my day" look about him, that I find so irrisistibly attractive. Mm! Yummy! And yes, I do remember the search for the green leather chairs, an endless whirlwind around all those drab furniture shops. Thank god you gave up and settled for the lovely lounge you have now. We're just not special enough to keep up with the Sultans of this world. By the way, I also enjoyed Costello's addition to the party; I'm just not sure who he is due to all this masquerading. Is he engaged to Abbott by any chance? Anyway, must run as I have to check how the Lab Report is coming along. Haven't seen Boz in a few hours and you know how I worry! Best Love, Roy. |

| Sunday 8th February, 2004. So I got really lazy and abandoned this caper for a while but I'm back. Sorry Jade, I didn't realise anyone was actually visiting regularly. I'll try to keep my audience of one entertained from now on. As mentioned yesterday, I have returned to the workforce. I've picked up some temp work and am really enjoying myself as the assignments are many and varied. I am currently doing a 4-6 week stint with one particularly nice, quiet organisation. The work is just data entry but they leave me alone at my desk in the cube farm and I punch in numbers all day and think about a bunch of stuff other than work. Who knew a job could be this great?? I am a day shy of halfway through my pregnancy - 20 weeks tomorrow, and still no sign of baby pics on the site - sorry! Jade I will try to get you a pic of my bulging stomach posted up by the end of the day. I have another ultrasound on Tuesday, and have finally booked prenatal classes, which start next month. Chippo and Holbrook tell me they are incredibly boring, so I'm not wetting myself over the thought of going. Poor Daz is working like a crazy man - and is back at Coles part time, but our finances are looking much happier, so that takes some pressure off. He is still loving his new job as far as I can tell. Oh I also forgot to mention that Phil asked Kirstie to marry him on Christmas Day and she said yes. I have created a gift registry for those in need, which you can only access here folks. When Kirstie gains knowledge of it, and gives her approval, I'll post it on the mainpage for all to see. |

| Monday 9th February, 2004. I changed my mobile number today everybody. I sent out emails to most of you already anyway, but just to remind you to change it in your phonebooks. If you don't have it for whatever crazy reason you can fabricate, then email me and I'll send you the new number. It's hot today, we have no food and I am tired. So no attempts at humour today my friends. Krusty has a large yellow plastic ball and it smells. Like plastic. But its much better than urine so I'm happy with that. I believe its purpose has something to do with exercise, but not being familiar with the endeavour, I can't be positively sure. |

| Tuesday 10th February, 2004. Daz and I went to the hospital today to have another ultrasound. It was so exciting to see my baby and how much it had grown. The radiologist was happy with all she saw - she said everything was perfect, so I'm very happy. Also, we caved and though we were going wait we found out the sex, but you'll have to go to the baby photo page if you want to find out! I managed to get a print out of one of the pictures too, so I've posted it on the Baby Page. The photo doesn't show as much detail as we were able to see - we were able to see the heart, kidneys, arms, legs, fingers, toes, spine, head, face, eyes, nose and mouth. It is so amazing. Give me a toot of that! |
