These Are the Battle Scars I Got From Shrapnel, When I Was in the Trenches of Dawson’s Creek

July 30, 1999

I just realised at my university there's no room 13. I asked the director why, and he says that in the past students have used the fact that they had their class in a Room 13 to blame it for bad results. So now we don't have one. (Actually, someone ...

I’ll Show You What You Can Do With Your Three Bloody Ships

July 29, 1999

Today I wasn't supposed to start work until 10am, because I've worked overtime. I had my alarm set for 7.25 (yes, I live a fair way away from Melbourne) to wake up. It went off, I had the usual 'mmmm comfy bed' thoughts and rolled over for five minutes. I ...

Where’s the Cheese?

July 26, 1999

Having three hours of sleep is great fun. You do really dumb things like stumble outside to your car in the morning in a half-asleep stupor to drive to the train station, not realising your windscreen is completely covered in ice until you've driven halfway down the street. There's a certain ...

I’m Calling Up To Complain About… Oh, Hang On, No I’m Not

July 23, 1999

Today at work the telephone system was down for half an hour. It was fantastic. We actually got work done. Of course one of the reception girls had to ask: Reception Bimbo #1: Shouldn't we ring up and find out what's going on? Me: Yeah. In fact I'm just ringing them up on ...

It Almost Killed Me

July 22, 1999

Okay, I've got a really bad mouth ulcer. And what's the worst thing you can do when you've got a really bad mouth ulcer? Eat McDonalds. (Actually, that's the worst thing you can do without a mouth ulcer, but that's beside the point). You never really realise just how much ...

Sydney

July 20, 1999

It's now next to official. I'm moving to Sydney in 1 to 3 months time. Of course, I'm going to need a job up there (anyone offering?) It's a tremendous risk moving up without a job but it's something I feel like I really want to do. So of course ...

We’re Treating the Postpaks to a Hearty Three Course Meal

July 19, 1999

Right now I've got a bit of a sore throat and have to have these penicillin capsules a few times each day. I'm supposed to have one as soon as I wake up, but this morning I was in one of those I-really-haven't-woken-up-yet type moods. I distinctly remember thinking 'You're ...

Inverse Billing

July 18, 1999

I'm just looking at my RACV bill which I recieved on Friday the 16th of this month. Apparently, if I don't pay my bill by the 13th of July then I'm not covered anymore. I find this rather odd seeing as I never received any prior notice about paying this ...

Enigmas, and Why You Shouldn’t Kick Little Rubber Balls Around

July 17, 1999

The past three weeks at work have been mostly time for me to stuff around, seeing as my office supervisor, Ms Superiority, was in the UK on holiday. Unfortunately she came back to work this week, and she hasn't changed her idiotic personality one little bit. Eg: Ms Superiority (just after ...

And if You Don’t Eat Your Vegies, Microsoft Will Send You to Your Room

July 1, 1999

If you've ever used any of the Microsoft Office programs, chances are you've encountered that little paperclip man you click on for help - the "Office Assistant". I swear, sometimes that little paperclip guy is a real pain in the rear. You get treated like an embicile every time you ...
