Yeah, I got a nifty badge today with my name on it. That's gotta count for something!

How's stuff?

Stuff is okay. Got a couple of nibbles on the dating sites so far. Have a day off work tomorrow. My camera probably needs a tune up (must not look guilty to keep the warranty in place lol). And I probably didn't need to see a workmate's facebook entry that he was waxed and smooth.

Must get enthused about the art side of things again, well at least the lit thread bit...
 
LOL @ waxed and smooth :) I had a workmate tell me the other day that she didn't like the chick she was being mentored by cause she was a "filthy dyke"

Gotta love EEO and the workplace... maybe I can reprogram her with the magnet in my new badge?

is it worth it, is she hawt :)
 
Ugh, no. And homophobia is like, such a turn on :rolleyes:

Besides, I already have my quota for hawt sexy females filled, and quite happily :)

filled you say? wicked evil typical male grin here - but only joking :D
 
I know mate, hence the :p

I've got the tv off, M has developed an addiction to fox news at the moment. It was starting to do my head in a bit. It's all good though, I have my green day playing :)

american idiot versus hannity and colmes - mmm, claymation celebrity wrestling, bring it on :D

oh, and is even fox saying that mccain could still win?
 
Who let those two reprobates in here????

(Hey GA... if you see that rascal again soon, give him my regards....)
 
Happy Halloween to all!
My neighbours are having a party. I think I'll get my ear plugs out.
 
Hey folks'

Thanks for the welcome Ladybird,I've been put on compo...my first time to experience that great aussie tradition lol...back to work tommorrow,grrrr.

Does any actually do the Halloween thing apart from having it as an excuse to throw a dress up party?

Anyone got tips for the Melbourne Cup lol
 
Evening all. I'm feeling rather mixed tonight. I have just done the final inspection for my big purchase. On Thursday it will all be official - I'll own the villa. I just met the girl (younger than me - I'm 29) renting it. She's a single mother and complained about the rent which she is currently paying - which is about $100 under market value. If I wasn't so jealous of her, I'd feel pity. But the fact is she has a baby, she doesn't work. I work- I have always worked, and worked hard - I want a baby, but it's on hold until a)I find the right guy and b)I'm financially set up.
So while I hate the idea of pushing someone out of their home, I'm putting the rent up next month. With two mortagages I can't afford to be 'too nice'. She admitted that her mother has started looking at other properties for her, so I guess she's aware that the rent was likely to go up anyway.

:( It doesn't stop me from feeling bad.

On a happier note, I was selected as "member of the month" on one of my games. So geeky, but made me smile.

I hope everyone's week has started well.
:rose:

I can understand you need to cover your expenses but just because she is a single mother with a baby doesnt mean she hasnt worked in the past and wont in the future. It could be she was in a relationship and the father walked out.. it happens.

Oh I know - and one of my best friends was/is a single mother. I guess I'm most upset because the first thing she did was complain - I thought she would be happy that I wasn't kicking her out. Plus all the stress with work and my own finances at the moment, the last thing I want to worry about is someone elses (who I don't know from a bar of soap) finances.
The straw that broke the camels back. And now all I want to do is cry.
