housework = hardwork

its a dangerous business this grown up rubbish.

Details of my grown up life;

  • I actually locked my back up while mopping the floor.
  • hubbie and i are excited by our new pet - a tomato plant
  • saving money at the moment, not for tattoo or other "cool" things but landscaping
  • my clothes are too tight
  • i spend my days shaking my head at the young folk of today.. no respect.. no respect i say.

so tired

im always so tired... i just want to sleep all the time. Im pretty sure im craving sugar all the time since i started the new sugar free health kick. Basically fruit for brekkie, weightloss shake or soup for lunch and a healthy dinner... argh 200ml of liquid is not enough to keep me satisfied all day and i walk past the school canteen and wish for the glazed donuts or hot dogs. My problem is that i love food.. i really really love food; healthy food, terrible food, gourmet food and fast food .. i love it all.

birthday blues pt2

BFF2

Text1 - "hey its my birthday this week.. you wanna come out on sat night?"
Reply - "what u planning?"
Text 2 - " prob going out into city.. maybe dance up a storm"
Reply - "nah im way too old for that!"

Come the birthday and i find a card on my desk at work from BFF2 with two free movie tickets. the type that are given to compensate a poor movie experience. Thats it. I don mind that she didnt spend a cent more so that she gave no thought to a gift and gave me tickets that run out in two weeks.

Maybe im all too petty about this sort of stuff. I just expect as much of them as i give. Is that wrong?

On saturday night Hubbie, my brother, hubbies BFF and i gathered to go out for a nice meal locally and then a 30 min drive to the city to go to a club ( a daggy retro club that is really fun) As soon as we walked into the resteraunt Hubbies BFF started talking about going back to his place to watch some movies cos he wasnt "fussed" about the club (that he has not stopped talking about since we met) He mentions this a few times throughtout the meal under his breath to hubbie so that i dont hear. Half way through the meal its starts to rain quite heavily and he mentions it again becuase "it wasnt safe to drive"
Anyhoo we leave the resteraunt and start driving towards the city and he says again that he wouldnt mind going to rent some movies and go to his place to watch them. I got upset and told Hubbie not to bother taking me out and that we would go home, i didnt really want hubbies BFF to come along but he did and stayed til about 3am watching movies. I went to bed at about 11am exhausted and defeated.

I dont get it.. why did he agree to come out with us if he didnt want to? hubbie goes over his house at ussually once a week and they sit there and watch movies and play plyastation, is that all he wants to do? He complains that he hasnt met anyone yet, and how hubbie is so lucky (hubbies BFF is almost 40, of a middle eastern background and very set in his ways)

anyhoo whatever

birthday blues

Ok so i love birthdays. When its someones birthday you go all out, special treatment... gifts... calorie filled treats. Its YOUR birthday.. they day we celebrate YOU!

My rant begins here
(disclaimer: husband not included in birthday dissapointments)


BFF1

"Rosaposa! its almost your birthday!"

"yeps!"

"what day is it again?"

"..... friday"

"thats right.. what are you doing for your birthday"

"i dunno i was thinking we could all go out saturday night"

"oooooh im going to the symphony in the park on saturday night.. thats why im calling. Im bringing my friend "jospehine" remember her.. the christian one? and i was gonna ask you if you can come and invite your friend "david" and we can set them up with the excuse its your birthday"

"why"

"i just feel bad for her.. she never goes on dates and i thought that we could use your birthday as an excuse to set her up"

"yeah ... i dunno... i kinda wanna do, what i want to do on my birthday"

"yeah... please!"

"ive already told david about her before and he said he wasnt really interested.. just cos theyre both christian doesnt mean that they are gonna get married"

"yeah but she never goes out.. she needs a good guy like him and you know she has all these trust issues with men!"

"right.. did she say she wants to meet someone?"

"no she reckons she is so busy with work and doesnt have time to date.. things are going really well for her at the moment but i want her to be settled and happy!!"

" so u wanna set her up with someone that isnt interested even though she seems pretty happy "guyless"?"

"yeah i just wanna see her happy.. plus it wouldnt look suspicious if we said it was for your birthday!"


So let me get this right... she wants me to give up my birthday plans to do what she wants and to set up my good friend (who isnt interested) with her friend (who has issues)?
ANd somehow im the one who comes off feeling bad?

Birthday wish list.
















more hilarity




HB and i went and saw another comedian last friday night... comedy followed by steaks ... whats better? well... i dont know!

Adam Hills was awesome! His style of comedy is so upbeat and positive. He talked about various topics such as life/death, last years paralympics and other tpics which on any other night and with any other host may have been a little depressing. Why is it that comedians are always so much better looking in real life? Anyhoo.. Mooooving on. Ive been the wife from hell as a new eating plan (ie not eating the stuff i like) and a "lady's time of the month" coincided. Agh... i just get so grumpy and all these thoughts that usually dont exist come and infiltrate my thoughts and i really want some twisties and aaaaaaaargh... why dont my jeans fit!

there is part of me

that is still 5 years old. This part of me is the one that suggests that we get an alpaca as a pet (simply because they are the perfect height for hugging - i have secretly tried this at our schools farm). Its the five year old within that made me buy the flannel pjs with bunnies and baby deer all over them (even if they are designer) It is her that causes me to still be attracted by colour and pretty patterns and which inspires my jewellery designs. She causes me to laugh for no reason, chase cats in the street and clumsily fall over things that are nowhere near my path. She is delighted at the bunnies that live in our street and doesnt mind waking up early on a saturday if it means watching cartoons and could eat lollies for breakfast lunch and tea.

oh bhoy

The hubby (HB) and i travelled down the coast to see Danny Bhoy this weekend. He happens to be HB's fav comedian and when we saw he was touring we took a long drive and stayed by the sea for a little midterm weekend away (the last one was here before christmas) It was a glorious weekend full of swimming and seafood (and sickness from the seafood and a bit of sunburn related soreness) The thing i have noticed about getting older is that the older i get the more i appreciate my own bed. We splurged on our bed, our matress is a feat of engineering genius (what with the latex and the cells and whatnot) and now no other bed compares. I used to adore staying in hotel rooms (but after the honeymoon everythign just seems second rate) but afterwards i always come back with a sore back, mounds of dirty washing (im so afraid of bedbugs) and a new appreciation for home.

shame

A friend of mine was "gay bashed" over the weekend while travelling home with her girlfriend on a bus. I dont know why im writing about this but i guess im just so outraged at the audacity of some ignorant and insecure men to put their hands on a woman because of their own stupidity. these are the same men that say that they would never 'hit a girl' well does that only apply to women who like men? Isnt she as vunerable as the rest of us "chicks" does her sexuality automatically make her physically stronger? I dont know.. im sure this didnt make sense but it made me sooo angry. She did nothing wrong, she has been out and proud for---ever! the idea that some morons made her feel insecure and ashamed even for the slightest moment has made me crazy
