whoa hallo everyone!
I cannot believe this is still here. I am six years older, possibly six years wiser, and much has changed since I worked in stinky Safeway deli/ as a physio aide.
Snapshot:
-got home from travelling to Broken Hill with my safety job, needless to say I was not enamoured with the city of Broken Hill;
-my two puppies are sleeping on the concrete outside my back door;
-tonight I will be going to my engaged friends' house party (it is weird to think I have reached an age where people I know are getting married);
-tomorrow I will do some casual work at Epworth Hospital as a physio.
I am sure all the pertinent details will come out should I bother to keep this up to date, but it is still here, and here we are.

[Link] | update again!
Sydney move is going okay, although I miss all my friends terribly and often have bouts of feeling lonely. That said, we're looking at making a weekend trip to Melbourne shortly, so that should make things better in a flash =) Work is also going okay, but I will be much more happy once I am out of outpatient neuro and somewhere else (I would really like to go to outpatients, so let's see how I go).
It's been so long since I updated that I'm not really sure what else to add. What does everyone else want to know? That might be the easiest way to approach this.
Current Mood:  lazy

[Link] | I've been slack lately, haven't been updating this as nearly much as I'd like.
7 weeks left of uni. I applied to work in a jeweller's because the deli get sme down, so very down.
My car was fixed (!) to the tune of $1700, kind donation from my nunu, which he told me would be my wedding present (!!!)
We want to hire a kayak, I want to go to the show, my room looks like it was hit by a wardrobe bomb and needs putting the hell away!
My dad is hassling my mum in a very passive-aggressive way which is not cool, especially considering he's working and stuying at the same time, his girlfriend is studying and doesn't even have a job, yet he hassles my mum for money, even though she's got the kids to look after. From where I stand, I'm working in the deli while I'm at uni, so why the hell can't she? load of crap.
So my mum came over on Monday and I settled her down as much as I was able. She's scared she's going to end up with nowhere to live, but I'm not sure how likely that outcome would be.
My brain feels like someone squished it all the way over to one side of my head. I think it's coming from my neck, I should get it physioed.
Even though I'm whinging and carrying on I'm having a lovely time! Things are overall pretty rosy, I just come here to whinge and be all emo.
Current Mood: sore
Current Music: news on channel 10 (seems i'm always watching tv!)

[Link] | home from mackay! and I missed home, even though the weather was very nice and I got an A- they said I could work for them but I don't think that's where I want to be.
back to doing half days at the hospital. I have to check my cash flow properly to see if quitting safeway is feasible. I would love to, but only if I can afford it.
People grow up at different rates. Christy's made this (as usual) half assed attempt at an apology towards Erica and I in her open diary. At first I kind of thought about seeing how she was going, but then I thought if she's gone three and half years without me, how imoprtant must my company be? Maybe she's just apologising to make herself feel good.
In retrospect that sounds very catty. mph.
Good to be home in my bed with my ben and all the good stuff and the city!

20 days
Sometimes I think that if I just sleep through the next 20 days things will be more bearable and less lonesome. I think of Ben down in the cold in Melbourne and wish I could be there to keep him warm.
there's no aphrodisiac like lonliness. doh. it's true. that phrase is turning cliched for me though I wish it were not true.

[Link] | well the pelvic ultrasound said that my uterus and ovaries were normal. That's good!
I went for a gastroscopy on Thursday- I don't remember much and the needle thinggy that I had to have in my arm wasn't as bad as I was scared it would be. The sedation knocked my around a bit though. On thursday I couldn't remeber what day it was, and on Friday I couldn't remember my phone number and got drunk extremely easily.
So I called in sick in Friday and we went to the snow. We went tobogganning and were the only plebs there who weren't wearing gloves.
no eating on the laptop! I have to go

US- Pelvic. Drink 4 glasses of water 1 hour before the test.
I had a pelvic ultrasound today to try to sort out all the weird things that are going on with my guts. I don't understand how anyone can look at what's on the monitor and understand what it all means in terms of stuff inside me! Anyways I find out what they found on Friday.
Adam Spencer is on Wheel of Fortune tonight and it is being simulcast on triple j.
Erica and James and Ben and I are all going out to tea tonight and I think I will buy a few cans of red bull on the way home because I will be hella tired tomorrow morning! *yawn* at least all I have on tomorrow night is netball and I will feel personally responsible if we lose, I didn't play last week and they won 21 to something something. So yes.
Need to get up early tomorrow and get on the bike, so my fitness levels correspond roughly with those of Ben's!
Anyways it's 7 minutes till I can go home so I think I might get off the computer!

[Link] | ahh sorry it's been ages since I wrote in here :/
I have half an hour left of work (AHA stuff at the Northern), I'm playing netball tonight, I'm going back to sleep (!) at the new house in Kensington and I have to go the fart doctor in two weeks because they smell so bad I could exterminate a small Eastern European nation.
Otherwise everything is shiiiiiiny!

[Link] | Went and had a look at the new hosu today- I can't wait until my new clean bed is sitting next to that full length window looking out upon all those shiny city lights :)
Pam, the lady I replaced at the Northern, doesn't look like coming back for a while, which means I still have a job for the time being. Mary says they will probably ask me to come back and work as a real physio. So does James. James is funny and cool, it is good to work with him. In fact the whole atmosphere at the Northern makes for a good working environment, nobody takes themsleves too seriously, which there's a tendency for among physios, even though to get treated by a physio you may not get that impression.
Sometimes my back niggles. I know what I should do for it but I'm curious to see what a practioner of Chinese medicine would do for it.
Current Mood: cold
Current Music: just finished listening to the new streets album in the car!
