When it Floods, it Pours

December 31, 2009
Thumbnail image for When it Floods, it Pours

Greetings! It’s been a little while, eh? There’s been a few unfortunate events going on in the past few months, necessitating my absence from these bloggy parts of the world. Today’s the last day of 2009, so it seems pertinent to briefly review what’s ended up being a pretty testing conclusion to the year. Warning: [...]

Hall of Helmets

January 25, 2009

Unlike the careers of anyone who appeared in Scandal’us, I’m not dead! We were in the process of moving house, so I was sans internet for a while. Adam organised the removals process while I was at work this week, so he began unpacking and orchestrating a redefinition of what can reasonably be hung on [...]

Top Five Reasons We’re Moving House

January 5, 2009

We’re moving house in a few weeks. This has caused us to reassess all the things we’ve never been able to do or buy in our current house. We’ve concluded the top five benefits are: 1. Domestic boxing bag Adam has longed for a boxing bag in the home, but we’ve never had enough room. [...]

If You Thought Nickelback Couldn’t Get Any Worse…

March 27, 2006

It’s two weeks ago now, but we had a great send-off from our Woolloomooloo crew the night before we flew down to Melbourne. Our mate Julian hosted the do – he used to be a barrister. Fortunately, for the sake of the entire postcode region’s safety, Adam managed to find Julian’s old barrister gear, and [...]

If Only Quan Would Reinstitute Happyland As Well

March 23, 2006

We’ve landed safe and sound in Melbourne. Although I’ve got three more weeks of holidays which I’ll refer to as JEBFEST for the time being, I shall endeavour to post far more regularly now that we’ve settled down. My attempts to save a coupla hundred bucks on our removalists backfired. Instead of reverting to the [...]

Moving to Melbourne

February 11, 2006

A series of interesting events and conversations has lead Adam and I to decide we’re moving back to Melbourne at extremely short notice. Like, less than a month short notice. Why did we just move back to Sydney again? There’s a number of reasons for the pending return to Melbourne, mostly job-related for Adam, and [...]

Miss Helena didn’t know how right she was when she noted that “bouncing’s so much fun”

March 11, 2003

This weekend I was forced to face some confronting facts about the company I work for. As much as I’d wanted to believe otherwise, they really are just another corporate entity who don’t really give a shit about a lot of things unless they’re a revenue source. It’s also dawning on me that I should [...]

MELBOURNE!

March 4, 2003

Yeah! We’re moving back to Melbourne! Rock! Adam thought of the idea last week, and it actually makes a great deal of sense. He’s left his job and is currently working freelance. I’m going to get laid off within the next couple of months (it’s not entirely clear exactly when, but we’re talking about multinationals, [...]

Canadon’t

January 31, 2003

A quick phone call from work just then confirmed that Adam and I can safely cross out the moving-to-Canada option. The terms on which I’d be sent over there are pretty unfavourable, so we’ve decided to screw it. Or snow-fuck it, as the case may be. Hopefully I’ll still get this new job I’ve applied [...]

Canuck!

January 30, 2003

Okay. I know I previously pounded away at my keyboard, declaring that the chances of me writing an online journal again were as unlikely as Greg Evans becoming a recognised deity of love in some obscure sect. But this is a blog, so technically my precarious reputation remains intact. So, hi! Here I am again. [...]
