Damn that Murphy!

Bloody typical isnt it? Mum spent most of last week, when I didn't have a spare minute, nagging me about updating my blog. This week I've been posting everyday, so naturally her internet is on the fritz. Ah well. Chris and I are going up there on Saturday so hopefully we'll be able to sort it out then. Once its fixed she's just going to have to wade through everything she's missed.

Anyway here I am on my fortnightly active night shift. It's been a hot muggy day (and week) and the air con at work is broken AGAIN. I sent off a maintenance request for it yesterday and was hoping they'd have fixed it today but no such luck, they're coming tomorrow. Ah well at least its cooled down outside. Better here than at home anyway, my room takes forever to cool down after a hot spell, although the flip side of that is that its going to be fun trying to sleep during the day tomorrow.

I'm pretty much just killing time on here waiting for my boy to call me after work. He finishes at midnight and has to train it home, so I intend to provide a distraction from the monotony of the walk home from the station (totally altruistic I assure you). I don't want to get all the housekeeping over and done with in one hit as I've found I tend to get the figits around 4am, plus for my backs sake I'm better off spacing things out. I've done a bit already so now it's break time for a while. I've brought some dvd's as usual to help pass the time but for now its computerising. Tonights dvd's are 'looking for Alibrandi', 'Lilo and Stitch', 'Strictly Ballroom' and 'Bridget Jones's Diary'. I'll only watch 2 of them but I like to have a selection, because frequently the movies that look good at 9.30pm when I pack for the night are not what looks good at 3am. Think I'll start off with Alibrandi cos I havn't watched that in a while, then one of the more mindless funny ones in the wee hours of the morning. I never bring movies that require any measure of brain power on an active, cos by the time I'm ready to watch them its pretty much 'fire bad, tree pretty'.

Ahhh nice cool breeze coming through the window now... lovely!

Going to go potter round for a bit now, see what needs doing.

til next time, xo
