things are back to normal a little bit now that the holidaze are all but over. it was so great to have a week and a bit off and just get blind a lot and watch cricket, and beer garden and go a bit mental.
the last week or so i have been trying hard to avoid being tempted by the alcohol snake living in the garden of hangover city. i watched wife swap tonight and i had to LOL.
*hippy mother to 4 year old son of ex-military swapped wife "today we're gonna make peace signs and anti-war banners and throw all your violent play things into the VIOLENT TOY CHEST"
i have also had to write a few letters of complaint. firstly i was disgusted last week when i tried to buy some rolls from brumby's at barkly square and they didn't have any decent sized hamburger rolls. after much complaining and confusing dialogue, i finally had to settle for some little bun that hardly fitted my ample burger and salad components. i got a response saying that the bakery would be happy to accommodate my hamburger roll needs if i was to order them in advance. i feel i shouldn't have to do this - we live in Australia and have bbq's all the time here. we love them! they should cater to this without having to be prompted... especially on public holidays.
my other complaint was to Bi-Lo this evening because they are trying to sell expired multi packs of burger rings. i rely on burger rings as a primary source of food every day at work (people who know me well will be well aware of this), and i do not take kindly to stale chip offerings. i told the check out chick about my concerns last week, and tonight i went back to see if they had been rectified... but NO, they had put this stale unfit for consumption product ON SALE for poor burger ring loving suckers to come and buy. so i am hoping to hear back about this issue tomorrow, and maybe then i can go back to hooking into my fave chip!
also, i saw wolf creek last week, but it wasn't at bad as i was expecting... or as good - you know what i mean.
i am going to see the mark of cain (TMOC) this saturday, so i could be in a mood for gunning down any inferior retail outlet that crosses me on sunday. for example....
you wouldn't read about it
i thought the company were ten feet tall
i got back, checked for a minute,
i've got a gun.... i've got the BULLETS!
