It's just not Cricket... (thank goodness for that)

It's wet and cold today...

The Dragons (St George Illawarra) played Canberra at home (Oki Jubilee at Kogarah) today and lost. I thought the Dragons were meant to be in-form this season? What's up Brownie, is the racehorse having a better season on the paddock than the lads? Or have Trent (Barrett) and the boys turned into group effort Trent the Flight Steward (ref: The Footy Show). Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that we don't have Austar (the out in the sticks version of Foxtel)...

Mondayitis

Well, it's Tuesday, the little sister of days.... why do I say this? Well, yesterday was Monday, and I had Monday-itis big time (yes, it happens when you work from/are at home too). But for one young girl, yesterday was different....

There was a car crash about 5km's from my house yesterday. So what you may say? A person was killed in this crash. No, I didn't know her, but people in my town did. The story made the local 6pm news. The road was dry, but the word on the grape vine is that this young life was snuffed out because of speeding. A P-Plater speeding.

This hits home for me. A piece of road I drive down frequently, a driver with only as much experience as me (or even less) and speed. People (usually in cars behind me) don't understand why I try my hardest to stick to the speed limit. Even my husband doesn't understand why I am so pent up about it. But I know it's wrong. And from what has so far been said around town, this young girl lost her life to it. A hell of a form of Monday-itis don't you think?

PS (14/3/04) - The full story of the above incident has been released, and it appears that on this occasion speed was not the evident cause of the accident. I have kept this post here as a reminder of the thoughtlessness of many provisional (and full-licenced) drivers on our roads who do cause the demise of others. Kath xo

Bored !?!

Well, folks it's been a while since my last visit to the land of Blog... (actually you probably have all given up on me by now...) it feels even longer than when St George (Illawarra) last won a premiership...

Ian offered to help me clean my office yesterday... I struck a deal with him - If I don't have it clean today (Mon 23rd) then he could help me. I'm not hiding anything, but I have fears of him tossing out bits of paper I have written notes on (in Kaffren (my own personal language) of course).

I am getting a bit bored of this form of blog... going to hunt for interesting stuff to add to it.

COFFEE!!!! COFFEE!!!! MMMMM!!!!
Funny how a plant-based substance can be seen as a trade-off for sleep... Last night (okay, very early this morning) my brain was buzzing and hence kept me up for several hours. It's amazing how much more amusing Merrick & Rosso are at that time of a morning... Ah, the joys of the internet!

Woe unto thee, thou bull of Bashan, for you will see your pomegranates wither! (www.shipoffools.com/Features/Curses/index.html)

I'm baaaack! Apologies to those poor souls that get a portion of their daily excitement requirements from my blog, but I just haven't had much to say lately (don't laugh!).

In fact, the most exciting thing that I am able to report in the last few days has been the February calendar on thebill.com - even I take that with a grain of salt! Oh, and I had an Enjo demo at my place yesterday - the most fun you can have with puppets...that clean...
