stuff
I can't even bring myself to recap how crappy work was yesterday. So I'm deciding to leave it there - yesterday. I did vent a little online yesterday but I'm glad i've been able to take some time away before I start my shift today. I'll be interested to find out how it all fell into place... i guess i'll find out in a few hours when I get there. Sigh. I wonder sometimes why I work there when I'm usually one of the few that really pay attention to things. I like being on the ball, but being the only one responsible for anything that happens outside my shift is just getting tiresome. I just wish others could chip in and do their share too..
Anyway so I went home and had a nice big vodka to chill out. Watched a couple DVDs with Liv, and got into Australian Idol big band night. Yay! My favourite night in the series... Carl and Natalie are by far the most naturally gifted in this genre. I was actually REALLY impressed with Natalie's performances. She showed she really has a great understanding of music, hit every note in the centre, and really gave it everything. Carl is an entertainer... this is his style... i looove the call & reply between a singer and the big band, and he's got that perfectly down. I'd love to see these two in the final two week after next.
Tomorrow is Melbourne Cup day. Exactly a year ago I was at my heaviest weight in quite some time and when I got the photos back I realised I had to do something about myself. I'm not sure how far I have actually progressed in my weight-loss goal, but I am confident in saying my fitness has increased by an amount I've never experienced before. I've never done anything like this before, so to feel strong really encourages me. I have to figure out how to bust through this invisible wall where I am stuck right now. I have always plateaued at this weight and find it very hard to push past this level... somehow need to do more, maybe get some new inspiration somewhere... my goal weight is still another 5kg or 6kg away (and my unrealistic goal weight is about 10kg-11kg, but i can dream heh), but i'm stuck here... halp!
It's only 50 days to Christmas. Blah! I told mum i might be home before xmas, if not FOR xmas.. but Peter at work has taken 7 days off just prior to xmas eve, so that screws me up. I dunno, i'll look into flights anyway....
