OK, best laid plans etc. etc… Ran out of time on Friday to post an entry. Had to drive over to my parents house as Amy and I were staying the night there (Mel’s birthday celebrations the next day et al). Talked with mum and dad for a while — primarily dad in regards to [...]

Just got back from midnight mass and it was pretty good. My knees and ankles were playing up again so I didn’t do too much of that “stand up, sit down, kneel, stand up again” kinda stuff. Just did my best. Tomorrow – well today rather – Amy and I will be going to my [...]

…That maybe it’s a good idea to occasionally come here FIRST and put in an entry rather than leave it until the end of the day, then get too tired to actually make said entry. With this in mind I WAS going to come here first this morning but we ended up having a fairly [...]

Amy and I did the ol’ Thanksgiving thing again this year (well Amy has to really. It would be un-American of her not to). Anyhow, she prepared pretty much all of the food (I think I’m suffering from a bit of burnout? I just wanna relax and do nothing these past few days) and we [...]

…..Or “How to get rat-faced and make an ass of yourself without even really trying”. Year’s and years ago now – back when I used to look like this – I helped “organize” a bucks party for a friend of mine, Enzo. Now while it wasn’t quite like “Bachelor Party” (classic 80′s film featuring a [...]

Yes, I’ve accidentally watched Entertainment Tonight again – or rather listened to it from the kitchen while I was making lunch – and I found out about this whole “search for a lead singer for INXS” reality TV show that’s starting tonight or tomorrow in the States. I knew there was some sort of competition [...]

I had some pretty cool news the other day. A longtime family friend of mine, Christine Griffiths, received news on the weekend that she’ll be one of eight Australians picked to carry the Olympic torch on it’s relay for the next Winter Olympics in Torino Italy in 2006. Christine has already had the honor of [...]

I’ve been hearing the word “Podcasting” for a while now – probably for about eight months or so? Not being in the possession of an iPod (damnit!) I never thought too much about it – that is until this past week. For those of you out there who are unfamiliar with the term, Podcasting is [...]

Had plenty of sleep today. Amy called at around 3 pm and we talked about the events of the past few days. It was good to hear her voice again. She said she misses me a lot, which was nice to hear. Likewise I told her that I was missing her heaps as well. We [...]

It’s been a very busy and a very sad week. Saying goodbye to Ames at the airport on Tuesday morning with a future that can only be described, at the moment, as “uncertain”. On Thursday I got a call from my friend, Daniel. He had gone walking and cycling up in the mountains but he [...]
