Very funny stuff, the 100 dumbest moments in business. Really worth a read. My personal favourite is http://www.cool-2b-real.com, a site 'designed to "steer" young girls away from vegetarianism.' That's just fucked up. Kind of like George Bush is.

Remeber never to piss your mother off.

I had some really bad nightmares last night. I don't often have them. But I kept having dreams that I was trying to sleep and big black shadows were walking around my apartment.
When I woke up this morning I realised both my front door and my back door were unlocked. Freaky!

I hope the Aussies win the cricket.

I was going to link some more funny stories, but the world seems to be rather depressed today.

Dave (the "New" Tony) reminded me about 11am yesterday that it was St Patricks day. He brought in this blowup hat thing, which I put on and Matt took a photo. It's a very shitty webcam though, thus the terrible quality of the picture. It's really quite bad, but you can view said picture here.

I was walking home last night anyway, thinking "oh well I didn't do anything for this St Paddies day" and not really being too worried about it.

On the way home I met one of our contractors walking the other way, back towards the Irish Pub I'd just walked past.

"Coming to join me for a pint Tim?"

"Naa, I don't think so. It's a Monday and all"

"Oh Cmon. You'd turned me down the last 2 times, it's time for a lager"

"Oh, OK"



As you can see, a huge armtwist there. We...

Well I haven't updated because I really didn't do much with my weekend. Friday night after I got home I had a great chat with Rob, Denny Laree and JulianD online. We were all pissing ourselves laughing. I dare not mention the source of our amusement.



It had nothing to do with Toast though. Just in case you're wondering.

On Friday I am going down to Wellington for a few days, back up here Wednesday. Should be fun, I haven't been to Wellington in ages. I'm going to go stay with the BossMan for the weekend. I'm keen to see this amazing house he's got. He tells me it has a dedicated, full-size beer fridge. And a TV in pretty much every room you'd want a TV in. Sounds like a riot.



Christ I'm so boring at the moment. It's too much bloody work not enough fun, that's the problem...

My mate Peter just came up with the best quote regarding the female species:

"We fuck up, we pay"
"They fuck up, we pay"

Up at 5:30am this morning for a network fault. Sigh. I wish I could clone me. Then I could sleep in and my clone could be the shit kicker.

Umm that's about all really.
I just wanted to show you all that quote.

I just wrote my friend Sam a huge big email... She wrote to me about 2 weeks ago and I never replied. I'm so terrible. The other day I got an email asking if I was there etc and did she have the right email address! I'm so terrible!! So I have sent a bit long rambling email. Took me 20 minutes to write it. And I can type fast.

Today Austar announced their stake in TelstraClear has been brought out by Telstra Australia. Really huge big suprise there, not. It was always going to happen. So we are now 100% part of the MotherShip. I now work for Telstra again. Totally. I can't escape. I thought I could bugger off to NZ and be done with them, but no. Their big long bitey fangs have reached out and sucked me back into the void of doom.

Jesus. I sound...

You really should all go out and buy the new Mad Caddies album. I can't begin to tell you just how fantasic it is. The more I listen to it the better it gets.



I'm in at work... I was up at 4am this morning. This is my fault, I couldn't sleep. No idea why, but I'm finding it a lot of late. It's like my body hates sleep or something. Who knows? And lets face it, who really cares? The reason I'm at work though is not because I was up at 4, I had to do some customer work at 6. So I would have been up early anyway.



Ha! Like this was ever in question. We fuckin' rule! Aussie Aussie Aussie! Yea!



And that's really I have to say at 6:29am. Except for maybe "I like cheese", but I don't see how that really fits in here...

It's HELL pissing with rain today, that's all it's done all day. I've looked out the window many times and it's shown no signs of abaiting.



I rang my landlord before. She hasn't asked the council about my seemingly high water bill. It's probably just how long I like to stand in the shower in the morning (can you say 20 minutes?) That's probably half the reason my power bills aren't super cheap either.

If talking about my work doesn't bore you senseless, you can read about my performance review today.



I went home last night, cooked tea and crashed out very early on. About 7:30pm I think. Sorry that I missed some people who rang. I'll call back tonight, I promise! Though I have to be in at work at 6am tomorrow morning for a customer connection, so maybe I'll get home and crash out hard again. This all...

Ok, so I thought maybe I cut back a bit too much before and the site got a bit hard to navigate. So now the main menu is back, as is the random image block which was fairly popular.

But all the other cruft that cluttered it up is gone.

I think this is the best of both.

One last thing, should I reenable the random quotes. Did people like that? Leave a comment.

I forgot to mention...



On Wednesday Morning my mobile number is going to be changing. Because we are such a bunch of tight arses, they aren't even paying for a message to say the number has changed. The number is just changing, stiff if someone doesn't know.



My new mobile number will be: +64 29 912 5717



Please update your number for me! Thanks groovers.



I have also reenabled random quotes...

Ok so I'm in a good mood. No real reason why, nothing exciting has been happening to put me in a good mood. I had a little snooze this afternoon, that's probably helped.



Yesterday morning I slept in... After having lain awake for a fair bit of the night freaking out...

I have just got home after going to see "The Ring" with a friend of mine. It's a horror movie, and I can easily say that it scared the crap out of me. Walking home at 11:30pm at night in the pouring rain to my flat, I was freaked out.

If you want a movie that will make you require a clean set of undies, this is the movie to go and see.

So what have I done with my days off I hear you ask?

Nothing really. Yesterday I just stayed at home and tied up, played my playstation etc, mulled over the paper. Nothing too exciting. Today I got up at 10am and went into work at about 11:30! Not to work mind you, just because a bunch of us had agreed to go over to the Viaduct for lunch. It's pretty empty now the ol' Viaduct. Poor...
