No. 1

Have you met my friend Rob? He's pretty much the funniest person I know. Unless you'd like to nominate yourself by telling me a joke.

Happy Birthday Trashbag!!!!

How is it that i finally get around to posting something on this blog, after weeks, and the stupid thing doesn't work? The whole of blogger was down. Or something.

It was all very in the moment any way, so it's not worth writing now.




Additional though.......



Everyone should get down to the Tote on Sund'y. Black chords play at 3.30. Come, relax and be entertained in the interests of charity on a Spring Sunday afternoon at the Tote.Past Monash University Geography students are putting on a 'Trash and Treasure' fundraiser with a number of attractions in order to raise funds to send directly to 'self help' community group projects in South Africa.

For a small $6 door fee, you will be impressed by some of Melbourne's finest upcoming rock bands – Telecom, The Kissingers, The Cheats and Blackchords, plus awesome Melbourne DJs.

In the company of friends you will be able to chill out in the beer garden and browse through a wide range of trash and treasure at bargain prices. Also in the mix is a BBQ, and a bake sale for those amongst us with a sweet tooth. What better way to spend a Sunday afternoon for a good cause? Put it in the diary – Kicks off at 3pm, October 29 th.

(Rumor has it that pete is cooking some goodies for the bake stall! it'll be just like a primary school fete!)

how delightful!


See you there in various states of dissarray.

Adventures

I can't believe I didn't see it myself!


Just treat it like an adventure.


A drinking adventure, a gardening adventure, a work adventure, a shopping adventure, a driving home adventure, a washing the clothes adventure, a cleaning the bathroom adventure.

I tried it out today and it worked a treat!


Take the seriousness out of it and just have an adventure.

The Green Man

Who'd have thought it would take all day driving around Melbourne to get the pvc for a green pedestrian light costume?

Bad Karma

I may have told you about a stupid, stupid thing I did at work a few months ago. (That is if you are the one person I told the story to.) Well today I did a stupid thing at work again. Not nearly as bad as the other thing, but if I had done what I should then it could have been a great thing. It's just the karma I deserve for trying to leave work early on a hot sunny day.

Lena had her test for her 'L's' today and I had to take her and Hannah, which meant leaving work at three. Turned out Hannah's mum could take them so I didn't have to, but I was still going to leave work at three to get down to the river and drink cosmopolitans. Karma got to me first though and I had locked my keys in the car.

IF YOU GOOGLE 'TRASHY PROM' THIS BLOG COMES UP!

Jiggedy jig

*



It is so amazing. Every year for the past 4 we've gone down to the Prom for the weekend and every time, even thought he nights remain freezing cold, the sun shines down on us and it is hot, hot, hot! And this year our 'prom' made it even hotter!
The sunburn lines made for an even trashier effect.


More photos will be up when I can get copies from everyone's cameras. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who made such an effort. I love you all heaps and hope to keep on having the stupid fun we do together for a long time to come.

Two Sleeps!

Only two sleeps 'till the Prom. Today sees the first day of holidays from work, wholesale shopping for snacks and beverages, plus the obligatory accessories for gorgeous prom outfits.

Don't you hate it when you drink water and it tastes like goldfish?

Not that I'm boasting but.............

Happy Birthday to ME!

Dont' forget.....



!!!!!!!TRASHY PROM AT THE PROM!!!!!!!


Friday week, 29th September till Sunday 1st October. Friday night trivia and Saturday night Prom.


Imagine if the weather is as 'hot' as it was this weekend. (and I mean hot)

This reminder should reach you in time to organise a frock AND PAY ME GODDAMN IT!

Mums

One of the mums in Paulie's cafe today had a ukelele.

A ukelele!


What a cool mum.

They were singing the wheels on the bus though, and then I had it stuck in my head for the rest of the day.





p.s I am not posting the fact that Britney had another baby boy.

Meredith Tix part 2

or

The happy ending we had all hoped for.


That post must have been a prayer to the meredith gods.


I'm in!


See you there, those of you who are lucky enough to navigate your way throught his crazy maze of modern technology. My tip is the phone line, constantly, for hours.

Merdith Tix Part 1

This story had better have a happy ending.

Website has crashed.


Phone is engaged.

Time for a rant

Fucking, Shit, Fuck, Fuck!


My stupid car is fucked!*

Aaaargh! It make sme so mad. It's just spent a week at the mechanics and now it's died again. Needs more work and more money put into it. It's hardly even worth having a freakin' car at all. Aaaargh!

Now I need to make some serious decisions about how to go about fixing it, or if it's worth fixing, getting a new car? Can someone please give me all the answers I need.

No matter what I do I'm not going to have a car for a least another two weeks. At least!

And no matter what I do I'm going to have to spend a lot of money. Money that could be much better spent on fun things.




*Sorry about the language, use it to gauge my ire.

Crikey!

Wow. Steve Irwin was killed today. By a stingray barb to the heart.


Two scary things:


1)He was out with the marine rangers filming a documentary, so the incident was probably captured on film. I hope it doesn't show up on you tube.


2)His wife is trekking on Cradle mountain. Out of range of people to tell her it has happened.


Frightening possibilities.

Spring Clean

Hurrah! Spring has now officially arrived! And it's freakin' warm right now, even at 6.00.

Today I cleaned out all my bags. Hand bags, day bags, evening bags, overnight bags and back packs. (Note the lack of trashbags.)

I found a few things:


That I have a whole lot of bags,


3 pairs of sunglasses,



A Spicks and Specks question card,*


3 pens,


A fork,




A Kenny Rogers brochure,


$34.25 in change,






A ticket to the Commonwealth Games hockey.


All things I could live without.




Things I didn't find:


My driver's licence,


New tyres for my car,


A boyfriend,


Time,


A plane ticket.


All of which I could do with.



I also cleaned out all my clothes and actually managed to find some I could get rid of. Don't worry, I haven't actually done anything with them yet. They're just sitting in a pile ready to go.









*OMG, did anyone see that horriffic rip off of Spicks and Specks that was on some other channel last weekend? So incredibly blatant, yet done so poorly. I couldn't watch. And hosted by Todd McKenney?????????

Guess who I saw on Saturday night?

Whilst drunkenly going on to Courtney behind the bar at the nightcat, I felt the need to include the girl next to me in all my ra-ra. So a few comments were exchanged, but funnily enough she didn't seem to want a bar of me.........



Until I recognised her........


Sarah?.........


Sarah Slater?...........


Woah!


I haven't seen her in like, 8 years.

Apparently she now plays in Germany. Crazy!
