Another Day in Someone Else's Office

ferry into town What a beautiful day. It's been a long day, but a good one. I popped into Serious Espresso today after a long time of not doing so, they were pleased [I got hugs!] to see me and I was pleased to see Holly and Terase again - I miss those girls. The coffee was fantastic, the panini was delicious, the company outstanding - it was as if I hadn't been away 6 months. It was nice coming home at the end of today. Weird that coming home is not the usual way to end a day for me anymore. We're all going out for drinkies next week so that should be interesting with the numbers of PXT phones and digital cameras - nothing like blogging pub pictures! I know you guys get sick of it but hey, I like to have some evidence of the night before! Meanwhile - sports news and the League season is over for the Warriors - not finishing with the wooden spoon, but very low on the points table and not earning a spot in the playoffs. Hopefully, the Captain from the Broncos coming to play and be our Captain next season might turn the tide of losses. And just so you know, proving Phet and I know talent when we see it: Karmichael Hunt got Rookie of the Year at the NRL Awards. Watch that boy, he's good, if a little firey. Shame he's not a Warrior.

The Good Oil

J�m�s:���have you had your fish oil today? Michelle: ���ah.. no i haven't. Michelle:���it irritates me that you have to take 3 tablets a day for THREE MONTHS before any effects are notable and I can't even take the contraceptive pill every day let alone a watermelon sized gel cap full of fish ooze J�m�s:���they are a bit big, and it doesn't seem to make much difference. i mean i should be seeing something by now, unlit I'm just going to switch on like a light bulb at the 3 month mark. �"ping!" instant Stephen Hawking Michelle: ���why do you want to be stephen hawking? so your wife can leave you outside all night and let you get sunburned during the day cos that's what Mrs Hawking does to the helpless Stevie. J�m�s:���ah but when your heads in a different galaxy, who cares. It's just strange, why do all the really intelligent people look so strange Michelle: ���because they, unlike us, can't have *everything* J�m�s: ���but what about those of us who look strange anyway, why are we not fabulously intelligent. it'll be that lack of fish oil thing again Michelle: ���I'm not taking those tablets! I'll continue to get by on my good looks and to hell with the memory J�m�s:���yeah! cos even if you have a bad hair day, you'll have forgotten about it by the end of the week Michelle: ���i know.. see? i'm really a gold fish J�m�s: ���but they only get 7 seconds. I wana know how they mearsured it Michelle:���i guess you watch a goldfish long enough you'll see it lose its car keys, divide the number of times it lost its car keys in the time you were watching it and voila.. 7 seconds J�m�s:���oh...........right.......................... *goes to put jug on*
