Well, I know it’s been a while since my last post, but I have been VERY busy…! And as a comeback, to my blogging life, I’ve decided to list a highlight (that I can remember) from the last 10 years… so, I’m 27 now, so we’ll start when I was 17… here goes!
17 – Diagnosed with a minor heart problem – no biggie. Got my lip pierced, scrotum pierced, and dropped out of school (gee, that was a year to be proud of)
18 – Removed my lip and scrotum piercings, started working as a researcher and began a law degree
19 – FINALLY came out of my shell and the closet (officially)
20 – Diagnosed with a severe heart disease. Moved to London, enjoyed myself, discovered the ‘joy’ of working and making money
21 – Explored New York and LA again. Moved back to Australia (to Brisbane, of all places, ugh!) as health was deteriorating, and entered the recruitment industry
22 – Moved to Sydney, out on my own, no friends, no commitments, no sensibility. Contracted the “Sydney Syndrome” – stayed out all weekend, every weekend… who am I again? Eventually made some ‘friends’
23 – Lost all sense of maturity – disgraceful, but fun – enough said. Made some better friends.
24 – Finally regained some dignity and started settling down. Started studying my pre-med part time, whilst holding down a full time job.
25 – Changed jobs and entered the media world – some would say a career, which it kind of could be, if not for the part time studies continuing… I take the job very seriously and do well, though.
26 – Still working away, making what I can out of the job I’m doing – still studying, struggling under the pressure, but getting there… Finally give up smoking, start going to the gym (albeit a half-arsed effort). Advised by the doctor that I’m stable and have improved – doing really well!
27 – Going to the gym a hell of a lot more. Completed the City2Surf in 99 minutes – not bad for someone with Heart Failure! Work is going fine, moved into a new role, but still with the same company. Great friends around me and doing well with the part time studies. Gee…
Shit – seems like a lot when you look at it like this… But, without it all happening, I wouldn’t be me. I wouldn’t have the friends I’ve found along the way, either!
Well, with that I welcome myself back to my world of blogging.
Enjoy.



A rogering good time…
23 05 2008So it seems the use of the word “rogering” in my post about Tania Zaetta rooting soldiers really sparked some interest!
Well, it got Mick and Shoo commenting anyway. And it got me thinking about a chat I was having with Shoo just a few days ago… Did you know, that the youth of today are saying “totes”… which apparently means “totally”.
It got me thinking… How would they use it?
Maybe something like…
So, with this playing on my mind and the comments just SWARMING in over my previous post, I decided to list some words that we should all consider bringing back (that actually make sense)…
Have I forgotten any?
