started back at aerials tonight - hurrah! feel those trapezius muscles working like the blazes...oh yeah! we did a good hour and a half on tissu, which is two hanging silks, for the uninitiated (will try and find a good pic) which was hard work after 6 weeks off! french and russian climbs, trying the ludicrous straddle climb, trying catches drops from a veeery short distance off the ground, and the beautiful 'washing line' which is from catches position..kinda... it was rad! kudos to helen and nicole who were with me on the less accomplished side of the warehouse as we watched in amazement as heidi, jane, emma and tanya did amazingly beautiful drops from daring heights.

hurrah for aerials!

hello hello!
went to unhinged last night - a short film festival at the IPAC - which was...how to put it...there was a definate r_a_n_g_e of talent in the writing and acting. there was a great piece by holly about a woman whose husband has been turned into a tree, a musical murder mystery and an excellent monologue about, well, the life of a petrol head, who witnesses a terrible accident and then runs down some kids who threaten her...sounds kitsch but it was superb.

today neil and i slept in llllaaaaaattttteeee which was lovely and now i've kicked him off the computer to do this...so i better give it back.
love y'all!
<><

just for you annie!

where are those darn incas when you need them? huh?

im home sick again today and i am OVER IT! may well bite the bullet and go to the doctor..boo to antibiotics i say! boo!

but, i have an ultra-spunky husband looking over my shoulder so i s'pose it's ok...neil sez: nothing.

hurrah! just what i need...
but my head neither imploded OR exploded today at work, so i must be getting better. isn't it interesting how when you're sick, the world shrinks to: a) getting better b) putting off things that aren't completely urgent and c) the things you can't avoid doing. it's weird how much stuff i can avoid doing for a short period of time....thats my thought for today anyhow.

baaahaaaa! really, this blog is just turning into me finding amusing pictures on the net and posting them and ranting and raving (occasionally) and wasting time (usually).

went to alex, benny and josh's farewell last night (for a limited time only, due to aforementioned and lingering illness/es) which was rad. reminded i was of how much i love my friends and how diverse they are...and how much i've started speaking like yoda, apparently....

today involved sleep, lots of fluids, Black Books, cat-watching and more sleep. ahhh...and calling in sick to work - bad for bank balance, potentially very good for health balance...

oh, how i love my husband! :)

ssssiiiccckkk aaassss aaa dddoooggg.

urgh...
praise the good Lord for ordinarily excellent health.

hmmm, so much time-wastage is to be had on the net....aaah yes...sweet time wastage. i think over the last two days i have done more housework than the last two months (possibly years).

hmmm, been watching black books, and fear i may be turning into a slightly cleaner, female version of bernard....the one on the right...

watching cats alternately play-fight and ignore each other is much more entertaining than it sounds....

we have the nuthouse residents (my old housemates) over for dindins tonight, and i plan to cook a vege lasagne-based FEAST! yum!

i think that is all for now. ro quite enjoys talking about herself in the third person and being at home alone from time to time....

How good is www.engrish.com? pretty darn good. we like it...

so, we're starting a blog. inspired by mazzy and the team at www.ft5k.blogspot.com cheers maz!

we are house-sitting and have b-r-o-a-d-b-a-n-d!! so exciting! so i can procrastinate while neil's at work and vice versa, i've decided a blog is the way to go.

love to hear from ya if you're reading....
