hi guys, yes I'm still alive :o
Whats been happening since my last update? Not an awful lot. And really I have been starting to ask myself why...
I recieved the answer today while looking at the month of september on my calendar...
2 weddings 2 engagements and 4 birthdays (not including my own) bugger that lol
Anyhow what has happened, the little bit of excitement, the prelude to the next months mayhem...
Friday night I went to see the gorgeous Kim for her birthday celebrations, all in all wasn't to bad a night, didn't get to talk to as many of the other 'party goers' as I would like and like young Kim might have to organise a catch up with you all at some time soon... though not any time in september... except for my birthday if that happens...
Saturday spent cleaning (blerk). Saturday night however I went to see "Drum Tao" the japanese drumming group.... Bloody fantastic I must say, an absolute rip snorter of a display I loved it so much I even bought the DVD, though that has some fun camera angles and some spiffing special effects that I'm not quite sure work as well as the plain wide angle I got from my own two eyes... but still pretty good ;)
Sunday was up early (shock horror) and into the city for the 12km City to Surf (ouch) but I did surprisingly well considering I did no training at all :o
Placed 8729th out of 26,008 official entrants (YAY ME!) and did it all in 1:43:16 (of which I'm certain it took about 10 to 15 minutes to cross the actual starting line so closer to an hour and a half...)
After the run came home, did some car maintenance and realised at some point soon I will have to change the oil (is looking pretty manky) so thats another job for september... oh boy :o
Then after fiddling under the bonnet of my car I watched the Dockers Flog the Eagles in probably the most hyped up local footy match I have known. Interesting game that the Eagles should have won, and probably would have if they had turned on in the 2nd, But the Dockers played well and made their 8th straight and possibly a top 4 berth for the finals...
Interesting stuff for a usually non active footy supporter ;-)
Anyhow, that should be enough to keep you all happy for oh... about 4 yrs considering my spate of recent posts ;-)
Nah kidding I will try to update more often... just having interesting things to say is .... hard finding
