Oh, but I am also working at home at the moment and I love it! Getting paid to work in bed or whereever you want to is pretty cool.

so basically I can go to work nakie. Pretty good.

You're a hooker??

[Boom King]

no, but I get to make grammatical annotations on sentences like "she eased her shaking hands against the smooth perfection of Lucy's breasts, thumb drawing those soft warm nipples hard and hot. "

(Most of them aren't soft porn..that's just my favourite one)

Are you marking?

[Boom King]

nah, i'm doing research assistant work. To be honest, I don't really know what the researcher is doing with it when I'm done, but it's something about the different senses of 'soft' 'hard' 'rough' and 'smooth' and how they're used with different types of nouns and verbs and whatnot.

If that last one is anything to go by, I assume he's beating off to your annotations. :huh:

I don't think she read them. They came from here (http://corpus.byu.edu/bnc/).

Nice one! My day is about to wrap up... Off to the doctor to see if he is happy to write me up for some valium so that my flight on Sunday is pure bliss as opposed to annoying "ARE WE THERE YET", "WHY IS THIS PLANE SO FUCKING SMALL??!!" moments.

No complaints with my day really... I've got loads of work to do on account of going on leave, but I can't be stuffed today... In my mind, I'm pretty much on holidays.

And yours?

[Boom King]

Good. I'm working instead of being in a lecture. A bit naughty.

Also posting on the internet. Naughtier still.

I'd recommend having a look at the flood maps if you're concerned about that sort of thing. I believe It's expected to be another wet summer, and whilst it's unlikely to happen again so soon, you never know!
-http://www.brisbane.qld.gov.au/community-support/emergency-management/flooding/Understand-your-flood-risk/flood-flag-map/index.htm

Interesting stuff. I've never been affected by floods before, so probably something I should be considering.

Brisbane was pretty cool. Everyone was super friendly, saw some cool stuff, and boated and walked everywhere which was fun and flat. Bummed we left before a heap of cool stuff was about to happen (Zombies, outdoor movies at Southbank, Rocky Horror, etc), but chuffed we'll get to see this sort of stuff more in the future.

Bit bummed about leaving Hobart. It feels comfortable and safe (and surprisingly sunny) here, plus the music scene here is finally GREAT. Just bought a ticket to Skipping Girl Vinegar just so I can see my new fav local band play at one of my fav venues for what will probably be my last time (in Hobart anyway) :(

Right now really not liking so much my loser neighbours and their party that is just starting up and the fact I have an assignment to do by tomorrow, but I can't seem to get started.

[Jake]

I love that I have a new job, good beer and homemade frozen yoghurt (lemon flavour, mmm).

I hate that people are pestering me about things I don't care about.

[Sarah]

tsk. People.


Love that I've just submitted my assignment. Not too fussed it is a piece of crap.
Don't love so much that I left my hair straightener in the hotel, or that I realised that 10 mins before I had to leave for work this morning. But love that I have an excuse to go all ferral hair at work.
Starving, should go find something to eat.

[The Dying Start]

I have a new office at work. Hells to the yes!

[Boom King]

take a photo! I want to see the workspace of Glenn.

[Boom King]

Like a year ago, someone on here suggested that I do this (https://austalk.edu.au/) austalk thing. It's taken a while, but I'm doing it tomorrow! My voice will be used for something useful!

[The Dying Start]

take a photo! I want to see the workspace of Glenn.

I might do that tomorrow, it's still a bit messy, but what the hey.

Before we had three blokes working on a bench built for two. Now we all have our own desks. That helps in IT when you consider we each have a PC, a test bench PC, a laptop, an iPad, and numerous laptops coming in for repair on any given day.:woot:

[Kacky]

I love that I got a new job! I am now a housekeeper at our local hospital!

[The Dying Start]

So you're a hospitalkeeper then?

I'm actually more surprised not to see some form of Coke on the desk.

also I have the same HP keyboards at work... they annoy the hell out of me for some reason

[Caity]

Love that it's my birthday tomorrow, yippee! Love that I got a new dress to wear. Love that I'm going away for the weekend with my boyfriend. Love that my life is so good right now!

[The Dying Start]

There was a precarious stack of some 5 or 6 cans which were not only blocking the view of Monitor #2, but also threatening to fall over and make things sticky, so I was forced to remove them. Them and the Farmer's Union Strong Iced Coffee stubbies that had already accumulated in the one week we've been in the new room.

We're almost rid of all HP hardware, but I like their keyboards better than the new Lenovo ones, so i held onto them. With my upcoming permanency I might end up witch a decent couple of Logitechs if I'm lucky...the redix budget should have a bit of swing room come Chrissie time!

[mattheal]

Mmmm I'm at that point now... need to ask the boss if I can get a offboard graphics card so i can run dual monitors instead of 2 computers.

also I'll probably buy a new wireless mouse for home and use my current one at work. much easier as it doesn't get tangled in the phone cable

[tlelover91]

Happy birthday for tomorrow though, I wont have the chance to wish you a happy birthday tomorrow as I'm working. Hope you have a great one!

The last place I worked at i had dual monitors and another computer anyway! We also had all the wireless gear which was alot easier. But up there it was just two of us, so we sorted ourselves out with all the good gear. Now i'm part of a big team with real structure and it's alot harder to make yourself comofrtable in the same way!

[Sarah]

We run dual screens for work. It is handy (couldn't go back), but also really painful when setting up/leaving a client. We have to lug massive suitcases around town all the time, struggle for space and power and kinda look like idiots when we rock up at the smaller clients :p

[The Dying Start]

Yeah, I'm glad i don't have to move my workstation anywhere!

[Jessii]

I walk around for 3 hours with a giant trolley shelving books.
Good fitness activity i guess!

[The Dying Start]

It's a normal sized trolley for everyone else Jessii ;)

[Jessii]

I spent 9 hours roller skating today, and kicked everyones arses and won the speed skating session. It probably helped that the song they chose for us to compete to was Prisoner of Society.

[The Dying Start]

Good choice. It'd get me moving.

[tlelover91]

I don't like that Christmas ads are on now. I also don't like seeing Christmas decorations in stores in September. It ruins Christmas.

Tough break having to work...

So, we've decided that tomorrow we're going to go to the movies and watch "Moneyball". Hopefully it's good.

And on Sunday we're going to do the 1000 steps thing in Dandenong. Hopefully I don't die... I am such a reformed couch potato.

I've actually got quite a full weekend! Tonight my old housemate and her boyfriend are coming over for dinner.

My boyfriend's family are pretty cool and they can cook, which is a good quality to have in a family.

I spent a considerable amount of time with my girlfriend's (and grillfriend when we bbq together) fam on the weekend. It is such a relief to finally get along with the fam of a lady friend for once.

It was also such a relief to find out that the 18hour slow cooked Turkish lamb everyone had been telling me about lived up to the hype! mmmmm.... lamb.

I've met my boyfriend's mum heaps of times but that's mostly because he's living at her house for awhile so ... he's met my parents a few times now in the official "boyfriend" capacity - he'd met them heaps before when we were just friends.

Love cute German Shepherd puppy cuddles.
Love the smell of freshly washed hair.
Hate that my boss is being a bitch lately - after 4 years of awesomeness, all of a sudden she's picking on me for the most stupidest of things.
Love that February is getting closer.
Love that my horse is finally okay to ride after his injury!

[Boom King]

He hasn't met my mum yet. That's mostly because she isn't very hospitable and hasn't invited him, haha. I only see her once a month or so, so there's a few more weeks until she even invites me around there, lolzzzz.

[The Dying Start]

Who're you with? Telstra?

[wizard_23]

I'm guessing you're with 3? My mobile reception inside in Melbourne has turned to shit in the last few years. It's riddiculous. Three even had something in their FAQ's a while back to say that they were aware of problems with reception inside and were trying to address it. It's 2011 and you have to go outside to use your mobile is a capital city!!! THAT REALLY GRINDS MY GEARS! :mad::mad::mad:

I'm with Optus for mobile and Vodafone for internet. It's a wiresless thingy, but doesn't have to constantly be plugged in via USB. It's called pocketwifi & it's been working fine but since I moved from Northcote to Nth Melbourne its been shit.

North Melbourne eh? We're practically neighbours then. Actually, I don't know that for sure, North Melbourne is pretty big. I only found out yesterday that The Town Hall has closed... I'm so sick of Melbourne pubs closing. East Brunswick Club is under threat too apparently.

I'm near the corner of Arden & Abbotsford streets, if that means anything to you! Not too far from the Nth Melb footy oval/cricket ground. (Please, no one stalk me. There's enough loonies around here as it is).

Yep, the Public Bar also shut its doors on live music, but still operates as a bar. *Really* hoping that EBC doesn't close. I like that venue!

Last week, I accidently damaged my boyfriend's headphones. He declined my offer to buy some new ones. They still work but they're taped together. They're seinheisser ones that cost about $150 sometime in the last two years but I haven't been able to sneak a look at what they are specifically. I was thinking about buying him some similar or slightly better type ones for christmas. What headphones would be good?

Also: If you had aesthetically damaged but still working headphones, would you want some new ones or something else? He doesn't use them outside the house, if that makes any difference.

[The Dying Start]

I've been told by two audiophiles i work with that Senheisser are actually pretty rubbish as far as sound quality goes and you pay for the brand more than anything. I'm not sure what they recommended instead though...i know the beats by dr dre ones were discussed as being pretty good, hopefully Kev Gray will be able to give you some insight, i assume he knows about this stuff!

Hi Joab,

Congratulations! You have won a Pyramid Rock Festival Prize Pack consisting of two three-day camping passes, a backstage meet’n’greet with Bluejuice, the chance to watch Bluejuice's Pyramid set from side of stage, and CDs from 22 bands playing this year’s festival.

Please advise your telephone number so the festival organizers can contact you with the details of your prize.


I am in shock. I never win anything ever.

My only HUGE dilemma is that I think I remember reading a disclaimer from the terms and conditions thing where I had to be able to collect the tickets from the melbourne office or something, and MAY have to be a resident of Victoria... I could be wrong though... I FUCKING HOPE I'M WRONG!!! ROOOAAADDDD TRIIIPPPPP!!!

HOLY FUCKING FUCK BALLS.

I'm going to work until 9.30-ish and then...not sure. Was thinking of maybe heading down to Fed Square but there's going to one hundred million other people there so I don't know.

Plus I'm not allowed to drink alcohol at the moment so that takes the adult fun out of NYE :p

Woo! Nicole! Got one up ya! I'm telling everybody riiiiiight...NOW.

No, I'm really unwell. Spent a few days in hospital last week & can't drink for the next little while (amongst other things). Which sucks because it's my birthday in a few weeks!

It's just frustrating because I don't look sick, yet I am.

[Kacky]

Shitty! Hope you feel/get better soon! xxx

I'm not complaining, it's just that climate change can get fucked! I would prefer to have things somewhat normal!

[The Dying Start]

Heatwaaaaaaave!

[All_torn_down16]

About 34c here, gonna be 41c tomorrow apparently.

It was still 29c at midnight! Now it's 39c. It is indeed a Heatwave.

[The Dying Start]

Only got down to 33c last night up here!

[tlelover91]

My thermometer says thay it's 32.1c here in South Western Sydney. Hope it's like this tomorrow. I wanna go to the beach!

How was everyone's Christmas and New Years?

P.S Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all you forumers :)

[Sarah]

Heh, suckers. Brisbane has had the best weather so far. Right now I don't even have the air con on and I'm about to get up and chuck on a flanny. Plus blue skies make me smile. Hell, even the river has a blue tinge to it today!

[Kacky]

Heatwaaaaaaave!

It's only a heatwave when places like the Northwest Territories or the Eastern Provinces don't get any snow when their definition of a light dusting is 60cm :p

[The Dying Start]

Went back to Whyalla this week to check on the house, came home via Clare to get on the winery tours and get shizzled, but got Gastro instead. WORST. TRIP. EVAIR.

[Caity]

LOVE that it's Friday.
LOVE that I resigned from my job and it didn't go that badly!
LOVE that it's official - I AM MOVING TO MELBOURNE!
LOVE that my boyfriend gets home tomorrow.

[mattheal]

Grats Caity, never easy telling your job where they can shove it

[Caity]

No, but it's easy when you are MOVING TO MELBOURNE :D

[The Dying Start]

I tell my job where they can shove it all the time. Unfortunately they really need me to work for them, and I really need them to pay me money. So we call a truce and move on.

[Sarah]

LOVE that it's Friday.
LOVE that I resigned from my job and it didn't go that badly!
LOVE that it's official - I AM MOVING TO MELBOURNE!
LOVE that my boyfriend gets home tomorrow.

Wow - exciting news Caity!

I love resigning, just can't do it again for a couple years yet. I always play Frenzal Rhomb's Greyhound ("I promise one day I'll have a proper job to do, but that won't be any time soon") the morning of for extra motivation :)

[Boom King]

I'm making green pork curry tonight and I have a feeling it's going to be AWESOME.

[mattheal]

Ooh that sounds interesting, never had a pork curry.
But all green curries are instant full points from me, Love em :)

[The Dying Start]

I love just about any curry. Yeh boiiiiii.

[Colezy]

LOVE that it's official - I AM MOVING TO MELBOURNE!


THANK GOD! Now I can finally talk about it in public/on facebook :p

[Boom King]

So everyone knows now, Caity? Cool!

[Boom King]

BTW my curry was probably the best thing i've ever cooked!

[The Dying Start]

I'm proud of you, DomesticatedKylie.

[Boom King]

thanks!

this is the recipe! (http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/5136/fragrant+thai+style+green+curry). Except I made some adjustments: pork instead of chicken, not as much fish sauce, more coconut milk, and lemon juice instead of tamarind puree because I couldn't be bothered going to the asian supermarket.

[The Dying Start]

I had pork last night. But not in a sex way.

[Boom King]

mmmm sexy pork

[worry_rock]

Ok, so first visit here in 6 months or so. Caity, when are you moving to Melbourne and where??

[The Dying Start]

Hi! *waves*

[Caity]

'sup Charissa!
Moving at the beginning of March. Where? Who fricken knows.

[The Dying Start]

To a cardboard box in an alleyway.

[Boom King]

woooo, no rent!

[Colezy]

Love that I finally got around to having my eyebrows waxed today. First time i've had them done by someone who knows what they're doing!
She also tinted them a shade or two darker so they stand out a little/match my hair/don't get lost behind my glasses. They were still a lighter shade from when I was born a blondie!

Bought the following today with some vouchers for my birthday:
http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/4945/img1353u.jpg
I want to paint the letter N..probably red polka dots. Maybe.
I haven't really got a use for the ruler, but i guess it'll come in handy sometime.

http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/5673/img1349iy.jpg
I want to get more of the vinyl coasters, but they were the last two. Hopefully i can find some more. I don't think i'll use them as coasters though, because i've already got some. They're probably going to stuck to my wall.

Also bought some tinted moisturiser and some other nice smelling make up-y stuff. It works wonders, but i can't remember what it's called :p
I'm really NOT a full on make up wearing person, but I'm giving it a go.

[Caity]

Nic did you buy the laptop too or was that just used as a prop? :p

[Colezy]

Haha! Yeah, just a prop. That was bought mid last year! Love the laptop, too :p

I haven't bought anything for myself in so long, so it was nice to use up vouchers/spend money on myself for once. Bought some new perfume too.

[Kacky]

Is some of that fancy stuff from Typo? I loved that store. *Wants to go back*

[Colezy]

The top photo is all typo products (munis the laptop :p). Bottom photo is stuff from Myer.

[Kacky]

Ooo! Thought so. I still gotta put my brother's 'Ninja Bread Men' cookie cutters to use :p

[Caity]

Typo is awesome. I could spend hours in that shop. Not that I'd use much of the stuff though haha. I wish it was around when I was in school.

[Boom King]

I love typo, but I hate typo prices!

[May]

I love Typo prices - I find so many bargains in there!

Kackles - I believe Typo have opened up somewhere on the American mainland, so it's getting closer for ya!

Nic - Yves Klein Blue Polka dots! Just realised this may not work with the new forum - damnit!

And anyone else think the rule looks like it says WIN?

[Colezy]

Clearly on purpose as I rule at lyf/win at lyf :p

And, I'm not using the new forum. Still the old one for me! (in other words, it works).

[mattheal]

is anyone using the new forum? :D

[Colezy]

I'd actually forgotten about it until May's post :p

[May]

Depends if I'm using IE or Chrome

[The Dying Start]

Old forumage for me. I should change the banner again though...in fact maybe i could get away with changing it to something awesome as it doesn't appear on the "official site" forum.

[May]

Do eeeeeet!

[Sarah]

eh, I'm using the new one cos I lost the old link when Larry died last week, and it is too difficult to trawl through here to find the link i know someone posted :p

[mattheal]

http://www.thelivingend.com/vBforum/index.php

all you had to do was ask :)

[wizard_23]

New forum blows.

[The Dying Start]

Blows goats.

[Kev]

Blows goats.


Bahhhhh


I'm liking the fact that I don't use Facebook anymore. Apparently my profile still exists, but I've removed the app from my iDevices (phone, pod, pad) and just need to work out how to block FB via firefox so I can't reactivate my account.

Google+ FTW!

[Sarah]

http://www.thelivingend.com/vBforum/index.php

all you had to do was ask :)

ahhh, much better.

Kev - FB doesn't understand that people want to get rid of it sometimes, pretty sure my old account is floating around somewhere too.

[Kev]

I just checked and it's finally gone. Feels pretty good.

Now if only more people used Google Plus.

[The Dying Start]

I just can't get into it!

[wizard_23]

So are all the years of posts with white writing now completely visible to everyone who uses the new forum?

[MyWeepingGuitar]

Dare I say it...ummm... Yes!

I lost the old link on my phone a while ago and actually forgot that the old background was white...being a newbie on the forum I was wondering what was with the white text comments...mystery solved ;)

[The Dying Start]

All our darkest secrets revealed to the world! Noooooo!

I like to dress up in womens panties and dance to Taylor Swift songs.

[Boom King]

me too!
it's so hot

[Jessii]

I love that I am no longer a library shelver, but a librarian officer.
Wanted to hug my manager when she told me.

[Colezy]

Excuse my ignorance, but what's the difference?

And, congrats! Any promotion is awesome! :D

[Jessii]

Library officer, works in the office, works on the issues desk, works on the info desk.
A library shelver, literally just shelves books that get returned.

[The Dying Start]

Excuse my ignorance

We usually do... ;)

[Caity]

I love that one of the girls from my Townsville office drove up (4 hrs) to surprise me at a going away dinner last night. Best surprise ever!
I love that we had an awesome morning swimming at a river/waterfall.
I love her 11wk old black labrador puppy. SO CUTE >_<

I hate that I have to pack.
Cannot find the motivation.

[Boom King]

Umm, I haven't posted here for 3 weeks! This has to be some kind of record for me.

Dear forum,
Please don't die! :pinch:

[The Dying Start]

I'm giving it mouth to genital resuscitation. She'll be right.

[Boom King]

how's that vagina?

[The Dying Start]

Tasty, tasty, taco!

[Caity]

Yeah I've been slack too. Stupid boyfriends are distracting.

I BROKE MY FOOT.

[The Dying Start]

Stupid boyfriends.

I have all bones in tact!

[May]

Stupid boyfriends are distracting.
Then get a smart one?

[wizard_23]

Tasty, tasty, taco!

They're not all good, but find the right one and you'll be wanting to eat them 8 days a week.

Tacos that is. :mellow:

[The Dying Start]

Blue waffles on the other hand...stay well clear.

[The Dying Start]

Does anyone on here live near Orange in NSW?

[mattheal]

from memory not reeeeally, but either Mitch (woolongong) or Joab (newie-ish) might be your best bet?

[The Dying Start]

Never mind, I've pussied out. I'm chasing used cars but was hoping someone could inspect one for me.

[Boom King]

dudes, I'm visiting melbourne at easter time!

[Colezy]

Yay!! :D

Driiiiiinks!

[The Dying Start]

Yay!! Come to Adelaide on the bus.

[Boom King]

Glenn, You come to Melbourne on the bus!

Or meet me at Apollo bay...it's a step closer to Adelaide :p

nic: yay! I'm not sure how to organise meeting all my Melbourne pals. I'm not sure who hangs out with who regularly, or who doesn't get along? someone will have to do some sort of friendship map for me.

[KillingInTheNameOf]

Caitlin Stacey back on Australian screens nom nom nom

Even though there is a 100% chance that I won't see the show

[The Dying Start]

What show is this, GrumGrum?

[KillingInTheNameOf]

Talkin bout your generation I think?

It's some celebrity quiz show that I never watch

[Caity]

Good show. You should watch it. Pretty entertaining.

Love that one interview is DONE. Hate that I still have two to go. NEED A JOB.

[mattheal]

Talkin bout your generation I think?

It's some celebrity quiz show that I never watch


She was annoying as all hell on it.

[The Dying Start]

She's annoying as hell on everything, just about. And she was a good fit for Josh Thomas, because i sure as shit can't work out HER accent either!

[mattheal]

bahahah yep, crazy accent, a little bit nuts and was even worse than josh on a spinning chair.

also her "aussie" accent in tomorrow when the war began had to be the worst in ever

[The Dying Start]

Which was a shame because it was actually a pretty good movie interpretation of my all time favourite book series.

[mattheal]

Yeah that and the fact that Robyn looked like she was 12 years old were the only negatives to that movie

[KillingInTheNameOf]

I hate how annoying Centrelink is.

I WANT MY MONEY NOW DAMMIT

[Chovies]

I love the fact i brought my own ( first ) car.

well thats a silly car

geddit

[The Dying Start]

Are you guys mocking me? I was about 35 minutes away from securing the car that I've been longing for the past 5 years, and some other mug got their offer in before I could. I'm talking exact model, specification and colour here. A colour that is near impossible to find. Heartbroken :o(

[mattheal]

what sort of car was it Glenn?

[Jessii]

I hate how annoying Centrelink is.

I WANT MY MONEY NOW DAMMIT

They sent me a seniors pensioner card, instead of a health care card.

[The Dying Start]

what sort of car was it Glenn?

2007 Mazda 3 SP23, fully optioned apart from the transmission (i prefer the 6 speed manual anyway) in Phantom Purple. :wub:

[mattheal]

Ooh that is a nice car, was 1 of the 3 models I looked at when i got mine

[The Dying Start]

Might have to settle for a Red Maxx Sport. Oh well, it'll match my plates!

[Jessii]

There's a vintage hot rod car show in Perth on the 25th. I can't even drive but each year I go, I badly want to buy one.

[The Dying Start]

Hazel Jones. Google her!

[Kacky]

I love that it's unseasonably warm for March. Roller skating outside! Boo yeah!

[The Dying Start]

I hate that no one Googled Hazel Jones...

[Boom King]

I did but I forgot to mention it. Vaginas. lolz.

[wizard_23]

Not suitable for work then eh?

[Big J.G]

Bought a ticket to the calling all cars scarborough show, I can not wait!

[The Dying Start]

Not suitable for work then eh?

Genuine news story, so i say safe for work, that's where I was when i was reading up.



I bought a car. The ad's already off the intynets and I don't take delivery 'til Sat so I can't provide photographic evidence just yet, but it'll be cool.

It pretty much looks like this, but better spec and not a hatch:
http://i37.tinypic.com/1huqsz.jpg

[mattheal]

you get the sporty one like you wanted?

also red cars FTW!

[The Dying Start]

Yeah, SP23. Might regret that, does 60 in third without even getting the revs up. Also the clutch is some idustrial piece of kit which'll take me a good week to get used to. Good fun though! Midlife crisis come early!

[The Dying Start]

New car today, new car today!

Still haven't cleaned all my crap out of the Commonwhore, and I still need to play box tetris in the garage in order to make room for the new beast. It's gonna be a big day!

[mattheal]

Pickchas please!

[The Dying Start]

Of the garage or all my crap in the Commodore? :p



It's bloody raining...I want a nice shiny car, dammit!

[BlackFalcon]

Gee, haven't been on here in a while, but I'll try to get on when I can (when I'm not at work or school, y'know)
Anyway, my band kinda died because my drummer started dating this chick (the drummer is also a girl)who was really needy so she quit the band, which really sucked. Then she and this girl started this little R'n'B duo and killed all the interest in my band.
My XB Falcon is nearly roadworthy, but it's still not white yet.
The Marshall G80 I had went out with a bit of pyrotechnics and smoke (basically it just caught fire).
And yeah, thats about it really. Pretty hyper first term of Year 12, can't wait 'til its over.

[The Dying Start]

Dunno if hotlinking facebook works, but here's the new car. Still needs some scratches (alot) buffed out, but I love it. Zoom Zoom!

Contemplating changing the plates to Maroon to match the duco, and maybe a slimline plate on the front.
