You may have noticed that the images on this site have shrunk quite considerably. Poxy, I know, but I truly can’t be arsed making additional thumbnails out of images now Husband has got me on this TextPattern thingo. So… get used to it.

Did anyone else have a crapola Friday? It’s been a weird week, in fact – people around me getting seriously sick, emergency vee-hikkles storming all over the place, crazy dreams (dreamt I met Princess Mary and hosted her Australian wedding in a dilipidated restaurant with 8 other guests – ‘nuf said)... just thankful I have a noice 1999 Pinot to keep me company while Husband galavants with mutual friends in the city. I just couldn’t face company tonight – I’ve been non-stop in meetings et.al all week and if I see another face I have to make pilote (even impolite) conversation with, I may just gouge my eyes out with a swizzle stick. I have social obligations tomorrow night and for now, that’s a fucking ‘nuf.

I hate small-talk – bores me witless, but my job lately seems to have been an endless cycle of keeping the peace and dealing with petty gripes and flattering people’s egos so I can get what I want. I mean, fuck, it works, but I hate listening to my voice when I do it. Sends involuntary shivers down the old spine. Shudder…

  1. Lucky you!! I´m still in the middle of my crapola Friday and it doesn´t look like it will ever end.
    Your description of work sounds like “matrix organisation” and “getting things done by influencing people” and “how many bosses did I have?” ... The end of civilisation as we knew it :-)

  2. Yo Kimbo, I think dreaming about Princess Mary is a sure sign that you’ve been reading one too many trashy mags of late! (Was Nicole Kidman at the wedding? This will confirm my theory!)

  3. In fact, in the great pursuit of saving for a mortgage, I have, in fact, bought nought mags in the last few months. In fact, I’m not even remotely interested in the whole Princess Mary fairytale, which made my dream all the more strange….

  4. OK then, on to my next theory, and that is your repressed unfulfilled fantasy of one day becoming a princess yourself, which was all blown away when you married my humble brainy and legendary cuz! (was I still best man in the dream? this will confirm theory 2!) (and if I was, was Nicole Kidman with me?? She’s too old for me anyway, hang on, I’m married too, I’ll shutup now!)
