Payback!


My team The West Coast Eagles today beat the Crows by 10 points after being down by 22 points at one stage in the second preliminary final at AAMI stadium. SO now we meet the Swans again in a Grand Final rematch and this time its PAYBACK for last years loss. All I can say is goodluck to all the Eagles players and kick some Swan butt!

The offical website for The Eagles is http://westcoasteagles.com.au/

October fun

Thank god its Friday! Well to bad I still have to come in tomorrow… there is no justice :)

Anyways its been another busy period with work being mad and everything out of work being sheer madness! One thing that I have noticed is that even though I have 4 days off it just goes so damn quickly. Mental note - buy house ALREADY renovated.

Work is starting to get really sh#tty, we have so many people leaving its like we have a farewell party every weekend. The problem is that all the good people are leaving and we get stuck with all the dumb asses who have no idea and that no one else wants to employ.

At the moment I’m thinking about searching after next May when my long service leave is due, so till then I just have to be patient (that’s a full time job in itself).
Ray has mentioned that he will probably leave after March and once that happens I don’t really want to be around.

Luckily I now several people who work for employment agencies so that’s a bonus. But winning lotto would be rather nice :)

Having a look at my October schedule and its gonna be a busy month, my brothers wife is expecting mid October, Andy is playing at the Rise in battle of the DJ’s, a couple of salsa parties to go to and my Aunty is introducing me to some of her friends twin daughters from Ireland so hoping it’s a lucky month :p

Brocky

Another fine day at work! Well the weather was great but its been pretty quiet work wise. The past week has been one of great loss with the deaths of Steve Irwin and one of my idols Peter Brock who sadly died last Friday.

As sad as it was at least Brocky died doing what he loved, it’s a great loss to the motor sporting community and the community in general as he was a great advocate of car safety in Australia. He was a legend on and off the track!

RIP Brocky!

full moon!

Yes its full moon time and that means more wierd bahaviour from everyone! It has been slowly escalating the past couple of days but today has taken the cake with myself having to walk away from not killing certain people.

It hasnt really helped that the past couple of nights i have woken up at 4am unable to get back to sleep so im a bit wired and relying upon caffiene to get me through those hard patches :p
But having salsa tonight I am supposed to be doing Advanced one for the first time but think that i will probably just help out a lower level instead. There is one move in Advanced one that has 64 steps in it! think I will pass on that one for now.

With all the people leaving work at the moment everyone is now starting to look for work elsewhere, including yours truly. We will be losing Mark soon and so I will more than likely be going to work mon to fri but first they have to "show me the money" cos the way this place is going things are gonna get worse before they get better!

Been pretty quiet with the whole net dating thing! Brooke has been sending some "kisses" or whatever they are to some "Hot Chix" apparently (I dont have access at work to the web site) but gotten nothing in return (go figure) so I will let her look after that for me. But Im working on something so not all hope is lost! :P

Next saturday will be a HUGE night as one of the guys here is leaving (one of many) but anyways the night has been earmarked as a big night out for all (lots of alcohol). Its been awhile since my last night of alcoholism and really looking forward to cutting loose and bust out some funky moves on the dance floor! All I can say is "bring it on!"
