My new iPod Classic is up and running.

First song off the blocks is I Believe In A Thing Called Love

*dances awkwardly*

So I went to Food 4 Less and bought the Tony's Giganto Pizza Supreme. That's the one with all the bell peppers! =) I took that frozen fun food home and tried to pop it into the microwave, but it was too big to fit in there all the way. So I had to kinda crack it down the middle and prop up the edges like a giant V to squeeze it all in. Closed the door and fired it up. The pizza was packed in there so tight it couldn't rotate.

I watched my yippie-yi-yum-yum through the little micro-window while it cooked. Ho-hum, pretty borin' leads to snorin'! Kinda like watchin' paint dry 'cept a lot less colorful, if you know what I mean. Half an hour later and DING! Pizza Time! Yes! Or maybe not - My pepperoni pastry was lookin' pretty pale and pasty. The 'crust' was all soggy and wet. The artificial cheezy cheez, paltry pepperonis, and sausage meat by-products had all melted down the sides and globbed around in the center, makin' one big goopy, gooey mess. It even smelled kinda weird from all the peppers. You ever wonder what they really put on these things?

I took it out the microwave and flattened it out. My poor pizza looked like it just got run over by a truck. Kinda like a day-old sailcat. I tried to spread all the toppings around to make it look more appetizin'. Okay, great. By then the mess had cooled down enough that I sliced it up with the one-eyed wonder wheel.

Now is Pizza Time? Nope.

I offered a slice to Jenny but she turned her nose up at it. Hey girl, you want a piece o' pizza? Are you kidding me, Cupid? You call that stuff pizza? Gross!

She was right. Tony's 'pizza' was a total frozen food failure. I gave it to the neighbor's kids down the street and they loved it.

I'm really hungry and exhausted but I can't sleep or eat because I'm at the library and I MUST FINISH THIS DAMNED PAPER BY TONIGHT SO I CAN DO THE NEXT ONE DUE THE NEXT DAY. WOE. WOE.

Just once more. WOE.

microwave cooking always leads to fail untold. Rip that shit in the oven next time bro!

I would do anything to not have to look at any more houses right now. Someone go find a little house for the husband and I please? Inner West Syd, $450 region.... can you do that? Thanks.

to rent or buy?

Renting!

It's draining, searching all over the city and trying to 'beat' contenders for a home.

ricky martin coming out should not be news.

I seriously thought he was aleady out. More importantly, why does anyone give a shit? We're not living in the dark ages here.*

*though some people may beg to differ, what with the likes of Tony Abbott and his ilk in our midst.

his ilk

exactly dickslap. the more we make this shit 'news', the less our modern society moves forward with this being a rather normal part of life and relationships.

didn't abbott backswing on his homophobia the other day in an attempt to rustle up more voters? dickhead.

Pretty standard practice amongst pollies, I should think. As if anyone is going to take him seriously, irrespective of his views on queer folk.

nony, I think that dude up there with the antlers would do a better job at running a political party than Abbott.

I wouldn't argue that Abbott is homophobic. He's someone who has to deal with lots of people every day in all sorts of situations. He's probably personally fine with gays, notwithstanding his rabid catholicism.

That statement is more to do with appealing to dumbarse homophobic voters. He's trying to dogwhistle his way to more votes.

he seems pretty happy.

maybe he's just come out.

I think you may be giving him too much credit here re: tolerance, but anyway. Feigning tolerance and actually being tolerant are two very different things, and I think that people in the public eye are pretty adept when it comes to the former.

he seems pretty happy.

maybe he's just come out.

Who? The elk or Abbott?

(this is all just speculation of course, outerspazz.)

abbott should come out.

I want to go for a swim but my ears are hurting a bit. Maybe if I eat some liver for lunch I'll have enough energy for a swim.

and that's not spinach in your miso soup. It's seaweed.

and that's not spinach in your miso soup. It's seaweed.

there's both... I bought the version with spinach... but yeah - you're right, the big bits are seaweed.

fancy! spinach and seaweed together at last.

i really really really love music today. hehe

This week is threatening to be incredibly interesting!

I don't care for Aboriginal Art.

I have a story about Aboriginal Art.

In year 4 each member of my class got given an orange to paint a face in Aboriginal style. There was one member of the class who was Aboriginal and her entry kicked arse. She did the whole dipping a stick in paint and doing dots. The rest of us submitted embarrassingly woeful entries that looked like our oranges had all had a stroke.

Her entry came last, from memory. I don't think our teacher cared much for Aboriginal Art either.

after 27 years of hating apple pie, yesterday i baked one for the other members of the house, and was pressured into trying some by mr slacks. i fucken love that stuff. perhaps it was the store bought versus home made thing, but damn, i make a bloody good apple pie. consider me converted.

I have a new bike I can't ride properly...and chain grease all over my hands!

Ha!
In the 80's, the 6 y.o. Tugboat and his classmates made ''party hats'' at Art class.
As a furture Minimalism/Zen cult icon, I decided to use nothing but WHITE colour.
All the kids wore their flashy party hats on the school bus when they went home, so did I.
I ran out from the school bus to my mum and her face turned white.
She thought my massive ''party hat'' was bandage.

Future minimalist huh, did you remember that the key to minimalism is contour, line and volume and as such make your hat in a grand scale?

PS: Did you not look like an underdressed KKKer?

I have a 13 hour bus ride tomorrow. Oh dear.

For some reason today is really getting me down. My shoes are soaked through from walking in the rain today and I can't afford to buy new ones. There seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel for work getting any better/easier than now, and I've got a demanding volunteer who is insisting on throwing a tantrum at me every five minutes. I just can't stand it!

I left a good job with shitty money for a shitty job with shitty money.

And my missus' dad is a cunt.

Thanks FF. You are a lovely.

I also feel legitimately surprised and let down when I buy a lottery ticket once every few months and don't win.

um. my only other solution involves caz.

DAFFFS

hahaha always wanted to say that

I'm very fucking excited right now. Penny drop.
