because i'm bad at updating...
... so now i've gotta write about all the shit that's been happening lately.
well... lemme say i miss maria's emails... hear girl? and melissa. they're both too cool so I MUST remember not to neglect these chicks. you only meet speical people occassionally and as bullshiot as it all sounds a huge majority of the people i adore are via my diary sites. i don't know how seriously they take all this, but my life would be a shitload different had i not originally stumbled upon FOD. i keep updating over there more frequently becasue for some pathetic and nonsense reason my computer actually can get onto that site, whereas it has multiple problems with LJ... so i can only get on here at work and even then it's a pain because i end up having to write my entries in pieces (between phone calls)...
*takes a breath*
so anyway... i've been trying to start this godforsaken essay which is due on my birthday (Feb 10), first day back at college and it's proving to be an absolute bitch... i'm usually not bad at essay's (nothing like whiz kid - mel - read that last one on FOD, very impressive) but it's like i'm suffering writers block because the intro, the body and the conclusion are just NOT reading the way i want them too... anyways... i've been saying that i need to sit down a seriously spend an entire day just "writing and brainstorming" but then a better deal comes up and all notions of homework conveniently slip away from my mind...
mike and i are just doing so well... i never thought that i would be able to co-habitate as effectively as we do... i've just never reacted well to housemates. granted, in the past they were all women, however i just figured guys would be the same. ok, yeah, we have a few beefs occassionally but i think it just makes the relationship more solid because we always end up sorting it out. good communicators. if i had to sum us up, that's what i'd call us... i am madly in love with that guy and simply could not live without him (awwww sooky, mushy stuff)... i'm sure he wonders why he came all the way out to OZ to live with me and my sometimes overly temperamental 5 year old (he has very few problems with sacha becasue she doesn't know anyone else as 'dad' AND she's an extremely agreeable child), but i keep explaining to him that we were all small and she will eventually accept that his word is as good as mine...
suki has been my biggest problem of late. in 3 short months she went from being a small, snuggly little ball of fluff, to a fully grown wolf animal with a penchant for blood... LMAO. ok, i exaggerate... time ran away from us and in that time we have fed several bad habits which have now snowballed and she is very poorly behaved... basically she practically knocks me down when i go outside to hang the washing out and bruises me, snaps at me and scratches me half to death. the bakyard has become a no-go zone for the kids, simply because they HATE the pup jumping up and going crazy. up until a few days ago (when i stood and displayed by array of bruises in various stages of colour) i was ready to take her to the pound... but i realised that despite me loathing her antics, i do love her and she's very much part of the family and has to stay. besides, we haven't even really tried to make a go of it so that's what mike and i will do. i called up the lady from the obedience school and she was super duper nice. she basically gave me some pointers to adhere to until obedience classes start back up in early feb... i think that if mike and i can manage not to crack it with the dog she might some good. i do have to keep reminding myself that she IS just a pup...
anyway... it's NYE... i'm still at work for another... *checks watch*... 35 minutes and then i will be out of here like a shot... i've gotta get home coz i'm babysitting melissa's baby "holly rose" who is just bewdiful... unfortunately melissa isn't always as in control as she needs to be to be a good mother and i guess i'm prepared to become a foster mom whenever... i'm going out as well but taking my two plus holly with me. i didn't want to watch melissa get shitfaced and possibly put holly in danger. i won't let her collect her until she's totally A1 sober either... i'm all good. i'll have a few drinkies to celebrate but stay pretty un-inebriated (like, totally since cops will be out in full force 2nite)...
so from me to you my dear LJ ppl... have a super party into the new year... miss u girls like sleep... leave me lots of lovely notes... i love u guys!
vee p.s i'm changing my username probably... not sure to what yet... this diary has still gotta change - I HATE IT!!!! LMAO
