yesterday morning i did something i thought id probably never do and i passed my practical driving test. so that means when i finish my 25 hours log-book ill owe everyone for the 4 years of lifts that ive got. but also be able to drive places. it also means that ill be less lazy and be able to attend more things, or make more surprise visits. but will probably mean ill drink less. which is probably a good thing.

i was going to rant about the federal budget but instead i have to do the ironing and housework.

News: one of my fish gave birth yesterday. so now i have 15 new little babies to look after. daaaw. but this also means that ill have to eventually find new homes for them.


i think i might have a rant. i havent posted one for a while.

next thing we are going to have all the farmers having a sook because there is not enough water left in the murray-darling basin. now, i understand that farms are where we get out food form and that the contrubute to the economy, and that australians, although mostly urban seem to have it stuck in their heads that we are a ntation of farmers when most of us probably have never even been on farm, so they dontribute a lot fo out sence of identity. but really, do they have anyone else but themselves to blame?
really, they have got away with 200 years of farming areas which should not have been farmed and siphoning water from everywhere possible. ass that to the fact that they still whinge and bitch when anyone suggests that they cover their irrigation ditches and i dont know how they really cant be responsible for thier situation.
gah. im sick of hearing them complain about somehting they have bought upon themselves. if a business in the middle of the city goes bust because of poor management, or inappropriate location they dont get hand-outs. dammit.

sorry for not posting very much friends. i hope that everyone had a good christamas and new year.

aidos and i were in melbourne for new year and i dragged aidos into fed square where there were thousands of people. i realised that i am totally in love with crowds of people. and i think one of my new obsessions may be taking and collecting photos of crowds of people. i also realise that i feel just a little bit empty when i dont have something to obsess about and collect.

i havent seen my friends in ages and i miss them. im really looking foreward to the housewarming on the weekend.

ive also been really sick. and once again its one of the fun mystery illnesses that the doctors can't figure out. today after a week of constant abdominal pain, fevers and nausea, headspins and general awfulness i went to another doctor who sent me for more tests and perscribed me an injection which i now am in love wih. the only problem was that it hurt a lot to have and i cant remember the last time i had to have an injection in my bum. probably because it was when i was a baby. but now im feeling a lot better and think that it was all worth it. i just dont want it to wear off.

thanks to my babeh for caring for me when i was ill and emotional.

im now a level 2 government worker! im a library officer, and you can see me live in person at midland library every monday, tuesday and every second saturday! come borrow books from me. complain about strange things! get drunk and talk to me for way too long! soak books in red cordial and say you borrowed them like that!

im still going to keep my gift store job. and over christmas there are heaps of late night trades which means heaps-o-cash for chelsea. and buying lots of awesome things. like on the weekend. i bought a neat pair of long short/short pants. and a really nice pair of leather flat shoes. and aidos and i bought a dress for me. its also black. i was actually looking for somethign other than black, but its the only thing that didnt look stupid on me. i have a problem where my waist is easily a size 6 but my hips are a size 8-10. so everything is baggy around my middle and then tight around my arse. stupid hourglass figure. i would have pwned centuries ago but now i just look like im pregnant in clothes.

but yay. new flash clothes and a proper library job.

today im going to spend my day finishing off assignments and gardening. ive been severly neglecting my seedlings and i feel bad. and i probably clean out my fish tank as well.

hey friends. i havent posted in ages. i figure i should.

things are swell. maybe thats why i havent been posting so much.

i might have got a job at midland library. i had to go for a preemployment medical yesterday. and im working more at the gift store. which means that i can actually start to save momeny for when im in melbourne and christmas presents and all sorts of things.

not much else has been happening. im debating wether to go back to uni next year. i actually got doss to take part in the walk against warming. he even handed out a few pamphlets on the day. it makes me proud.

im thinking of making a business proposition with my boss to make and sell gift cards and gift boxes in the store. i dont know if they would sell or what sort of price to charge or anything. but i think it would be a neat thing to do. if it works i could try to approach other people in the franchises. that would be hella sweet.

im going to have a whinge about halloween parties. mainly because no one is going to come and get drunk with me for my birthday because of it and its an excuse for people to thorw parties where the ladies all use it as an excuse to dress up as slappers and wear as impossibly short skirts as they can find.

it makes me angry. and realise how few friends i have. boo.

this morning i went to the optometrist because i hadnt had my eyes checked in a while. i discovered that my eyes have got worse by three steps. when the lady was letting me know baout the new lenses ill need she was like 'now these ones are a bit more expensive because your lenses are really thick now and you'll need these ones otherwise they will be too big and heavy.'
boh. and my optometrist said that i wouldnt be able to find a surgeon to perform laser eye correction becaus eim too young and my eyes are getting worse too quickly. but apparently there are some new contact lenses on the market that hopefully wouldnt dry up and stick to my eye-balls. so maybe ill try those and hope they dont slide into my eyesockets like the last ones did.
the annyoing thing is that i had to send my frames away to get my new super thick lenses put in and i have to wear my back up pair. which have my old lenses in and big ugly dark frames. i feel like sulking.

i dont want to go blind. all the people who would end up looking after me would make me wear fluro colours and give me ridiculous hair styles.

Im at tafe and im bored. tafe is boring. i need to get a real job so i can just do this extrenallly. maybe i should go back to uni next year and finish my degree. i just really want to get a job in an awesome little specialist library and spend the rest of my life there and become the library. it would eb awesome working for the csiro or the art gallery or the museum. then i would be happy.

i also have to start working more. at the moment i have almost no money. and that means no money for when i go to melbourne or saving for other things/travels. boo.

im reading a really good book at the oment on the definition of 'adulthood' it keeps making me mad about the way that generation y is portrayed in the media. it makes me want to start a riot. but then again i think im just someone who has an inclination towards rioting. if only i wasnt so much of an idealist or a wuss.

cider is great. i wish i had some cider now. i miss going to uni classes drunk after being out drinking with my uni kids. and none of the poeple that im studying with at tafe are the type of people who want to go to the oak and barrel and get drinks before the next class. and i dont want to look like a loser and go drinking in a basment pub that sells mail order brides my myself.

this evening my dinner table conversation with my parents got to the point where i had to explain what a camel toe is to my mum. when i did she said 'oh! you mean mumble pants!". when i then asked her what she meant in return she replied with 'when you can see the lips moving but cant hear anything'.

she also thinks me using the word 'front-bum' is quaint.

i love my parents.

today i woke up and was thinking baout just how much i love shows about medical curiosities. especially ones with insanely obease people or people who have plastic surgery which then goes really wrong.

i freaked out doss by talking about a show i saw where a man was so fat that his legs burst open like a ripe omegranite. then he started yelling and got upset so i stated thinking baout plastic surgery.

i then thought about the act tha i havent seen the scarey cat lady, jocelyn wildenstein lately. then i found out that she actually kinda looks a bit more normal now. but not really.

then i started looking at other crazy women who have gone mad with plastic surgery. its great. i love it. but not as much as i love tv shows on medical extremes. so awesome.

my printer sucks. i goes through a silly amount of warm ups just to print one page of paper. it makes me angry with all its sillyness.

my spine really hurts today. i hope i dont end up a cripple

work was really quiet and boring today. sue and i just stood around and gossiped all day. and i ate chips. i think my job is giving me a belly because i just stand around doing nothing but eating.

colin farrell always looks dirty. he is a dirty looking person. even when hes obviously had a shower. he always looks like hes been out in the garden or something.

camping on the weekend was swell. we went to the windfarm at albany. that was exciting. and no matter how many times doss threatened to throw me into various bodies of water or off suspension bridges or told me that he hates me, i had fun.

i dont get this whole 'body image' thing that people have a problem with.

i was thinking about it after the whole australian idol thing which happened last night. one of the judges told one of the contestants that she should lose her 'jelly belly'. the victorian goernment came out and a whole bunch of 'body image experts' said that it would push more young girls towards eating disorders.

now, maybe i cant really speak on this matter because i have always been stick thin- heck, i barely even had hips and boobs until i was 17. but i know that i have always had problems finding clothes that fit and people teasing me at school. the other week i was in the shops and thought 'hmmm, that bra looks like it would fit me' then, as i got closer i realised that it was a bonds 'my first bra, trainer bra'. now really, going to myers and asking for a 10aa bra that cant be any less humiliating than having to go ask for a 32c or whatever.
also, i understand that a lot of models are disgustingly thin. but they are also really tall. ive never felt like having a body image meltdown because im short and wont ever become a fashion model.

the one thing that i dont get is that everyone always jumps on people when they accuse women of being overweight. however when people accuse people of being too thin, to tell women that size 8 is unhealthy or unattractive eveyrone jumps up and gets on the bandwagon. as a society who is facing a pandemic of obeasity related illnesses, why isnt obeasity considered an eating disorder?
