i find it hard sometimes to do my job properly, either that or i'm setting up a transfer station in my garage
in other news i have aquired myself a new (old) mongoose pro bmx, i am smiling, a lot. with a little bit of work and some yellow spray paint she'll be a wee dancer.
the landlord has informed us that work starts early next week, i am going to be the proud home renter of a brand new bathroom, kitchen, sunroom, toilet and an extra bathroom and bedroom. where the heck its all going or why he is being so kind i don't know. i've never really trusted people from the far east and i think he has cards up his sleeve he is not showing, however i am prepared! |

| trucks |
[Jul. 19th, 2011|09:33 am] |
so yesterday at work my truck broke down, i had to push 4.5tonnes 1/3 of a mile before i could push it down a hill to start, rubbish, yesterday was riddled with disaster, it was just one of those days, everything that could go wrong did, so i came home and organized my computer files, how boring.
apparently the landlord is putting in another bathroom in the house, this could be interesting, getting a new kitchen and refurbishment of old bathroom too, rent increase coming up??? i think so.
in other news if anyone is coming over for the world cup i have a spare room at £100 a week or $200 NZD. |

people have lost touch with who we are.
i looked at the sun today, i know its not the best of papers, but its upsetting to read that front page news was a bloke leaving his wife on their honeymoon to go see the rangers game. now i don't know about you but on page 21 was the destruction the cyclone caused in burma with nearly a half million dead.
is it not more important to report that the aid we are sending them is not geting there due to the facist government not allowing it and letting their people suffer?
to me thats front page news.
we as people have lost our values and morals. its sad, but true.
is it so hard for a race living on the same planet to share somethnig we all have in common, the will to live?
i don't think it is, yet there is still famine, preventable disease and refugees stuck in countries where a little kindness is appreciated.
it costs us nothing to be nice. al it takes is a little forethought and genuine appreciation for others, but we can't do it, its sad. its more than sad its pathetic.
i don't think people should be rushing out and adopting kids left right and centre, nor should we be giving money here there and everywhere, but what we should be doing is realising that we are better off than these people and reaching out a hand to help.
a little consideration can go a long way, its important we realise this. |

for a while it seemed like everything was falling apart, things just didn't add up to what i liked them to be. there were emotions, mainly from my part, flying all over the place, and i didn't realise what sort of posistion i was in.
there are many things wrong with my life, its not perfect, but i am happy with the what i have got. i've realised that there are always new people to replace the old, new emotions to over shadow the lost ones and most importantly there is me to make me feel good.
i don't really know what i've done, but one very important person in my life is no longer talking to me and has not been for a very long time. i miss this. its hard sitting on a train talking to strangers about emotions and feelings, but they seem to understand more and its easier to talk to them.
am i scared they are going to judge me?
i think i've fallen drastically in love with a girl. thats right for all those people who have ever questioned my sexuality, i like girls. i've met her once, she has a sexy voice, but i know what her answers to my questions are going to be. boy did i miss out when god was handing out baws.
anyway i think i'm going t ask her for a coffee. its quite pathetic but unless you have any other ideas i'm going to have to take this line of approach.
my holiday this summer is booked. i am going away with one of thee most fantastic people i have ever met. i guarentee that when you meet her you will love her. its hard not too.
so southeast asia and the oceania continents will be blessed with a visit from the skibs, i can't wait. i'm thinking of using it as a stepping stone to enter my new career choice. DRIFTER. i like it and think i could potentially pull it off.
gee's i'm rabbiting on.
say hi to your folks for me |
