life in the public service lane

need i say more?

the public service lives up to all its full reputation.

good conditions. decent pay. 5:30pm is considered 'late' to be in the office.

i have never been paid to enjoy my work life balance so much before.

hurrah!

have you EVER had a raunchy communion??!!

this is a real calendar i saw in Venice!!

meeting people

birthdays galore this weekend.

ive been to 2x 30ths
and my sister in laws 21st :)

Im feeling older and somewhat more aware of my habits of telling people i hardly know, embarassing stories about bridesmaid shenanigans... dressing up to a party in a chicken suit (jo, you maybe one of the few that remembers that one)... and wonder why sometimes im just a little bit 'out there' to complete strangers... and forget that the impression im leaving is somewhat just a bit 'tragic'.

anyhoo... no wonder they dont come back after their 'hmm, excuse me... im just needing to go to the bathroom/grab a drink/ chat to someone i havent seen in a while.... ' blah blah blah!! ha!

the art of conversation. thinking i might try refine this one.

NOOOO CRACKBOOK!

i dont believe it

reunion

im going crazy trying to track down so many randoms for our 10 year reunion.

using FB aka facecrack/ crackbook is driving me bonkers!!!!

i hope people come.

if only i could speak spanish....

i would marry this fellow....

cant sleep

so im going to bore you on my blog instead.

what does one do to cure insomnia? this is not a regular occurence, but i think its probably cos i did a MAJOR sleep in today after some late nites... and i probably didnt really need to catch up with as much sleep as i did. hence now its 1am on Monday morning... i have this olympic parade thing and i have to be down by Circ. Quay at approx 8am... yawn...

meditation. i think i'll head back to pray-as-you-go. org. its a good site. with lots of good mp3 daily meditation things.

yes. i think i'll go do that.

paris on the mind... but olympic parade comes to town!

just thought id mention that i'll be in the olympian's return home parade in sydney on monday 15th september!

i will be an official marshall walking nearby the gymnasts in the parade down george street :)

such is the life now that im back working for 'public' events! woohoo!! i might even get to touch a footballer... they're right behind the gymnasts (if any of them come!)... i hope they're good looking... hehehhe

francais on the mind

i really want to become fluent in another language other than english--
i have dabbled in canto... picked at mandarin...

but what id really love is to be fluent in french.

yes siree. how do i make this happen?

any dear blog readers speak french and would like to partake in a french conversation over a croissant?

:P
