drunk like a fox….
so yeah… angry came around this arvo - few beers and ive kicked on like an ethiopian marathon runner.
been awhile since i did an update… there were a few ratemysteaks in there that i missed - only one worth really mentioning is the ippy rsl. everyone knows how much i loved the rsl - they renovated and now it’s shit. shit enough for me to move to brisbane…. which brings me to another subject - after 4.5 years im done with my previous employer. i’ll miss the people and some of the crazy stuff that went on but i won’t miss the politics - and that’s as close to a rant as im gunna get.
my going away gift was a bottle of hennesy xo, an engraved pewter mug, a card, a tie, and the most mega gift of all - a framed photo of all the metro barmaids! with all the stress of doing mc duties at angry’s wedding i didnt really have time to digest the fact that i was actually leaving my previous employer….. so when i finally got home after the wedding (after diverting via nowheresville, nowhere to drop chester and jen home) i had some hennesey out of my pewter mug and digested the fact i was leaving….. reading the card was a bit of a downer but i hennesey’ed my way through it. been a few “am i doing the right thing in leaving” moments but i think im adjusted to the change. going in to meet the new crew later this week - hopefully it’ll go well.
mc’ing went ok… i sucked at the beginning due to nerves - but by the 1st speech id given myself a few uppercuts and it seemed to go ok in the end. first one ive done and if i did it again i reckon i’d do a lot better - angry seemed happy with it but maybe his new wife is just making him be polite
despite the fact im technically unemployed for the next month or so, fatty still managed to score me a corporate ticket to the cowboys v broncos game last friday nite. dinner at the caxton beforehand was pretty ordinary - the steak had huge bits of gristle and other un-cuttable stuff thru it. if i was paying i woulda been pissed. other than that it was a good nite - cowboys won (which i cheered all the way), full stadium, awesome.
moving into town…. i’m gunna keep this place as kind of a glorified storage locker / wrecking yard. the plan is to come out here on weekends and work on the cars, etc. given that im working in the cbd now and parking is hellish expensive, and that i got a bit of a cash injection with the new job it makes financial sense to rent a unit in the city (and i mean in the city - think walk to work). i’ll sit on this place until the end of the year and see what the housing market is doing - might sell it and upgrade to an industrial unit :/
munga and tamz0r brought lily (the new min munga-ette) around the other day - i don’t have much experience with kids but that kid is pretty easy to look after…. can’t see what all the fuss is about - she did nothing but sleep for the entire 3-4 hours they were here. pretty un-interactive…. can’t wait until she’s a teenager and driving munga nuts.
so what have i done with the last week and two days? pretty much bugger all - cleaned up the yard a bit, did some work on the house, chilled out and watched people like ireland trying to play cricket. this week i gotta get some stuff done…..
i’ll go on record as saying if i go back to work in a coupla weeks time and *still* havent done my qride i deserve to be caned by you bike owner mofo’s.
out of stories….
