Lazy day so far (I only have to work an average of three days a week anyway).

Groceries, renovating, painting, age of empiring and hooking up my new 21inch monitor. Sitting here killing saracens and reading dslr.com.

Not a bad day :D :D

Got home from work at 11am (Left early as I have to do overtime on my day off... Monday).

Been doing a combination of staring out the window, watching TV, reading and listening to music for most of the rest of the day.


Long weekend??? *Sigh* that would be nice..... even a 'normal' weekend would be nice (I get Monday & Tuesdays off.... start at 2am on Sat and Sun....doesn't leave much energy for much!) What's the long weekend in aid of and why don't we get one down here????

Labour Day for ACT, NSW and SA
possibly even Queens Birthday for WA (it takes longer to get over there :D )

Lol... Well I'm a Queenslander at heart.... where does that leave me?

.... Why-oh-why did I have to find a great girl that I want to spend the rest of my life with who lives in VICTORIA????????? Can't wait to move back home (still trying to convince her :shock: )

Paul

P.S... there is nothing actually wrong with Victoria. I'm just looking out my window at the moment and longing for the sweet-sweet sunshine of my younger days (... well 6 years ago anyway). :D

don't go outdoors, it's sunny, warm, bugs are crawling on flowers asking to be photographed, beer tastes better outside and topless women folk are running down the streets....

The sooner you do the brochure, the sooner you can play....

In the mean time, we'll all play instead! :P
