Gah! Why did I commit to NaNoWriMo? I'll never do 50,000 words by the end of the month.

I mowed the lawn today. I would like to say that I did this all by myself, but that would be a lie. And lying is wrong. And so is your head...
Anyway, I had to get the neighbour to start the mower because I apparently possess no upper body strength. Comment - Like

W00T! Someone from Belarus visited my page! It is my favourite obscure Eastern European country of all time. Please feel free to come back and hang out my Belorussian friend. You are blessed with a thriving mushroom industry and the wonderful Max Mirnyi. You must, therefore, rock. Comment - Like

I've been whiling away the time while I'm too lazy to get up and put dinner on by perusing my stats. Turns out most random people get here by googling 'I hate Darwin'. I didn't know I had so many kindred spirits. There were also quite a few searches for 'trouser snake'. Giggle. Snort.
I'm now ... Comment - Like

Like my new decor? Yes, it is actually called 'Toasty'. Although, as my fingers feel like ice at present, I couldn't really say it represents my current state of being. Comment - Like

Okay. So I have just come off the world's best teaching job. I love the staff. I love the principal. I love the kids. I love the school. If I had no ethics I may well have kidnapped the teacher I was replacing just to stay there. But I do have ethics...really. Now I'm just praying for her to get pre... Comment - Like

In pondering on what might constitute a most crippling allergy, I decided that, for me, it would be high heels. How much does this say about my intellect or lack thereof? Comment - Like

I have what you might kindly call a propensity for sneezing or what you might unkindly call a head full of snot. I think the grand sneezing fits and surgical attachment of my nose to tissues began sometime around the age of 10.
As a child I was quite healthy, so naturally I was jealous of all the k... Comment - Like

I am often asked why in the name of all that is good and holy I would ever want to be a high school teacher. I am mostly asked this by my students and then, it is mostly the ones who would turn you right off teaching who ask. I'm guessing that they have difficulty working out why anyone would volunt...

I will begin by reminding/informing you that we live in defence housing. It is vital that you understand the way this works ie we take whatever house we can get our mitts on and are then stuck with it regardless of how we feel on the matter. Generally this hasn't been a huge problem, we have lucky e... Comment - Like

I think I may have broken a few of the buggers. That, or majorly pissed off Thor, Dionysius and that Earth mother goddess thing from Avatar. I'll only offer a selection of the circus we have been living of late, any more and I'm afraid you, my dear reader, may come down with a case of the vapours.

Welcome to the official re-naming ceremony for the blog. I use the the word 'official' loosely. Actually, I use the words 're-naming' and ceremony loosely too, as I am not about to smash a bottle of champagne against my computer.

Does it still class as being on holidays when you simply don't have a job? I'm figuring that as of tomorrow I need to start calling myself an unemployed bum.
See, during school holidays I feel completely justified in claiming that I'm on holidays. I'm just on holidays from a non-existent job. I can'... Comment - Like

I like to tell myself that the reason I stayed in said jammies till midday was that I'm on holidays. But, you see, it's not really holidays when you don't actually have a job.

What is wrong with people? Apparently, in some circles, it is ok to call someone a skank using global media. Can't see what could possibly go wrong with that. It would seem the moment people sit down at a computer their brains explode and they revert back to their five year old selves. Pfft!

I am very happy that we are moving to Melbourne, but I am not so happy with the way a certain division of the army has dealt with the situation. They shall remain nameless, however, I will refer to them as the Mushrooms from Melbourne (kept in the dark and fed on s**t).
