In hindsight, maybe not the best idea, but today has been rather entertaining thus far as a result. And I just got really surprised. Someone I work with, who things have been kinda weird with for a reason I’m not quite sure, said I was looking very nice today. Booyah. Oh yeah. And she’s always looking nice, but that’s a story for another blog. I have to make more of an effort to look professional for work. I like looking professional, but I just don’t have the clothes. I’ma going shopping tomorrow. I was going to anyway… Going to start the Ye...

My thoughts: The series as a whole incorporates so many ideas, themes and characters, that it theoretically shouldn’t work. I’m pretty sure when Stephen King started writing it, he had no idea where he was going. And as he wrote each volume, he rode the waves of ideas that came to him and meshed the ideas and themes from his other books to create the Tower. It’s the story of Roland Deschain of Gilead. Once you finish the book, you’ll realise just how fitting the name Deschain (‘of chains’, or ‘in chains’) is for Roland. He...

I’ve known Chris since Grade 2, and Cassy since Grade 8. They got together at one of my sleep overs in Year 8, and have been together ever since. I caught the train up on Friday night. I passed the time by watching Chicken Little and the Chronicles of Narnia. By that time, there as only about an hour left on the journey, so I just listened to my iPod for the rest of the journey. Mum picked me up, and she let me borrow the car and gave me $20. My Mum rocks so hard. I dropped her off home, got a...

I'm worse today thatI was yesterday, I can barely talk, my head is killing me and I'm constantly off balance because my ears are full of fluid. I'm going to the doctors today, and because of that stupid woman coming to work sick, I'm going to have to apply for Leave Without Pay for the next few days. That's $450 less I'll be getting next fortnight.. and that's money I NEED to survive! I can't even afford to pay the doctor's bill... So I'm going to have to work something out there. :( http://mattafoo.blogdrive.com/comments?id=3 http://mattafoo.blogdrive.com/archive/2.html Tue, 19 Sep 2006 12:44:00 GMT Yarr! Today be September 19th, and ye know what that means, yo mangy curs! It be talk like a Pirate Day! Yarrr! And my name for ye scurvy land lubbers who don’t know is The Lone Drinker! I got me name back when I was a youngin’. Instead of being suckled with milk, me Mam gave me whiskey! Ye know what really skittles my scampers? Cohorts who come a plundering right next to ye, when they know damn well they’ve got a cold! Woke up this morning, spread out on the poop deck, with spittle on me lip and a blocked nose! Yarr! And me throat’s killing me, but I got an old family recipe to...

None at all. We had the bachelor party for Chris, the budding groom to be, last weekend. I'm not really sure how it happened, but we ended up in Rockhampton. Friday night we went up to Mount Archer and saw the entirety of Rockhampton from an awesome viewpoint. Then we hit the strip club. I had never seen that many boobs in one place in my entire life. I bought a whole heap of alcohol with the intention of getting plastered, but I ended up leaving it all in the car. Sunday we went to a Go Kart track, apparently...
