Miranda My Blog Resolutions Jun 7th, 2006 4:09:35 pm - Subscribe

1) Update regularly. preferably once per week

2) Be more creative than the previous post.

Now in keeping with my resolution:

I am drunk. Have had two Bundy OP's and random sips of Crown Royal, a particularly strong American burbon.

Oh, and Ronnie's kids are over from America for a while too. I think they go home on the 20th. Michael the oldest ain't so bad, he's actually pretty cool, and "gets" Aussie behaviour a lot more. Rachel in the middle is ok too, she's great when she's in a good mood, but once she's upset (which doesn't take much) she's horrible. Leah the youngest is 13, but has the mentality of a 2 year old. She does things she KNOWS irriate you just for the attention.

It's fun having them around sometimes but their depature can't come soon enough. Kyla (wisely) has taken to the hills and is staying at Rachel's place tonight.

I have a new keyboard too. It types and games beautifully. In fact the only problem with it is that my typign is impaired by alcohol.

Nathan is requesting I insert him into the blog also. In fact he is being VERY demanding. I think his current belligerent behavious comes form the fact that he too, is drunk.

Nath says: OOH
Nath says:NATH WANTS TO BE IN BLOG
Nath says: MAKE IT ABOUT ME
Miranda says: fine fine
Nath says: ALL ABOUT THE NATH
Nath says: AND DTUNK
Nath says:*DRUNK
Nath says: AND NATH
Nath says:ESPECCIALY NATH
Miranda says: ok ok
Miranda says:sheesh! you're a PITA sometimes.

See the absolute belligerence and disrespectful behaviour I have to deal with?

He also thinks PITA is a type of bread. Yes, but in capitals like that it stands for Pain In The Ass!

I also threw out this job search diary thing that Centrelink makes you do by accident. FUCK. I have to go get a new one now. I dunno how much they will like me for this. It tends to piss em off. It was an accident though. I will be more selective when I throw out random newspapers next time though.

Apparently Fungus and Nath are going shirtless with hats. They are having a rather bizzare MSN convo with webcams. Fungus however is a camera hog and won't let me in the shot that much.

Ohh, I got new pastels too. Beautiful dry ones this time, so much easier to blend and make pretty pics from. Have done a few already. Only two are good. The other two are randomly average. Should get a folder and make a protfolio of sorts. Not that I intend to make money from drawing... but it would be cool.

They are indeed going shirtless. Fungus is in fact making quite a strip show out of it.

Time to get the Jack Daniels cap and take my shirt off too me thinks

My god I ramble when I am drunk, but at least this post has substance and conveys interesting information inbetween the bullshit.

Also, I swear heaps on this thing. Did ya notice? It more or less reads like I talk though, nonsensical.

Anyways, I'd best be off before this turns into a novel. I think I want to draw more too.

love yas!

Miranda Weekly Update Jun 16th, 2006 1:15:15 pm - Subscribe

Well... so far I've already forgotten to update in time. Only by one day ago admittedly, but even still... this is why I don't make New Year's Resolutions.

Truth be told, I looked at it a couple of days ago, and really had nothing to say, but seeing as I had a little while to spare, I decided to wait.

What's new?

I reloaded WinXP into my comp. Finally got rid of the spyware... that's what you get for googling Disney Porn, it now runs beautifully. I have half a mind to call the computer Alice. I don't know why, but every comp mum has had was named, and I feel I should name my computer. Alice, Ella or Elsie or something like that. Actually... not Ella, that was one of my mice.

I want to get some girl mice too, and put them in the other cage, named Violet and Sasha. I don't know why, but it suits them. Which is odd seeing as I haven't even met these mice. I like to name things in case you hadn't noticed.

I've finally decided on the design for my tattoo. It's a Southern Cross on my ankle, which I've probably said before, but have never got around to getting. Now Ryan has photshopped on the design and I can see it better than my wobbly drawings on, and I LOVE IT manies!

Tomorrow I'm going shopping with mum, she needs to pick up her new glasses, and I want to try and convince her she needs a new mobile. Hers cuts out after a few seconds. the last time she called me we spoke for 39 seconds... in two calls. A phone like mine Nokia 1110, is like $60 now or something, which isn't bad. She'd have to changer her number, but she's done that like 3 times already so it wouldn't be a big deal for her. I meanwhile, HATE havign to change my number, I have so many people in my phone book, that I only have mobiles for.

After that is my old choir committee meeting, I'm not in the choir anymore, but I'm still on the committee until it is reformed, at the end of the year. Which I can live with, I'd better just show up for at least one meeting though.

Then the Redrum Boys have a gig int he evening. It's a friend of Tim's dad or soemthing, but a gig's a gig, and they'll always need a fantastic roadie/photographer/groupie to come along! My dad says that equals a band moll.. I'm not so sure about that... times have changed lol.

Anyways, that's my weekly update for now.

Be good!

Miranda More Things I Have Learned Jun 18th, 2006 4:55:08 pm - Subscribe

I have learned....

Never sit on the toilet with your bag still on your shoulder. Especially when the straps make the bag hang at your butt level. You will sit on the bag instead of the toilet seat, lose your balance and fall off.

Never google Disney Porn and then find you're so curious about Jasmine and Ariel getting it on you have to go to the site to find out more. You will get some stupid spyware and have to reload windows to get rid of it.

Never fall asleep on someone else's bed. No matter how tired or drunk you are, or if the bed is a matress on your bedroom floor, and the person whose bed it is is currently awake and occupying your bed. They will be mean and poke you in the head until you move when they want sleep.

Never keep two mice in a cage who fight all the time, even if it is funny to watch one try and have gay sex with the other. The amorous mouse will eventually get the shit kicked out of him.*

I have also learned:

Tequila is yummy, particularly with Lemonade. Would be great with a twist of lime too.

Go prepared to Redrum gigs so that when people love the boys so much they want to Download Thier Original Songs you don't have to give the URL out on crappy peices of paper torn off the used song lists.

Always check your HTML code before posting. I have and turns out I would have had to fix it. Thankyou to the poster a while ago who told me the correct code!

1/4 to 3 in the morning is a bad time to write a blog. Your brain will be too tired to function correctly and you will find you have lapses in brain activity where you stare and the computer screen aimlessly.

Well... at least I learned some useful things this week!

Miranda xoxo

*Lars was bitten a few times on his front legs and back. He looked to have quite a lot of blood on his fur, but when i was holding him nothing seemed to be too sore or still bleeding. He is recovering in a separate cage and seems to be his usual cheeky self. Dimebag is uninjured and seems relieved not to have to constantly defend himself from Lars' advances.

Miranda An almost serious update Jun 28th, 2006 3:11:24 pm - Subscribe

And again, I'm late in my "weekly" update. At least I think I'm late. Still, these updates are more frequent than usual.

I'm still doing this horrible jobsearch thing, which I have to do to keep getting paid. I applied for 8 jobs today so I am quite proud of myself.

I also had an interview for a call centre on Tuesday. I wasn't brilliant, but I was better than some of the others. And as Nath says: To escape the fiery dragon, one does not need to run as fast as one on horseback, one must simply run faster than the dwarf Or something like that anyway. I have no idea where he got that from. Also there was somethign slightly 'ick' feeling about the call centre. Just put me off and made me feel uneasy. Like the job interview in 04 when I was sick and the guy reminded me of my friend's abusive stepdad.

I am hoping to get anything that doesn't involve too much travel and I don't haev to dress too nice for. I also want decent-ish pay. Which isn't too hard. Call Centre pay is $15-$20 p/h as a rule.

I have also decided it's time I got my Learner's. As of 2007 they're bringing new rules and shit in, and I don't want that crap. As it is I will have to have my P's for 4 years unless I can get my L's and then my P's before 2007. Which... means I would have to get my L's tomorrow and my P's in December. Not likely.

The Iris boys have set a date and time for their next LAN, so if you're gamer in the Melbourne area, check it out!

Onto my actual inspiration for blogging, I can't believe I never mentioned it before. My littlest bro is in all kinds of shit. Multiple charges of car theft, riding in stolen cars, breaking & entering, vandalism, and arson. Some of it sounds a bit harsh, he wasn't actually the one who lit the fire, but he was there. Not sure how they're sticking him with arson on that one, but anyway. He has also broken his bail conditions 3 or 4 times, and lied to the police, and thus is being held in remand until his trail late July.

At this place there is an automatic allowed visitors list. Other people can be added or whatever, but the list is mum, dad, my other bro and me. Anyways, mum went in and saw him, she says he's doing ok, but she's hinting she wants ME to go visit. We haven't gotten on since he was like 3. Not to mention he doesn't really like me that much or listen to me either. Why would I want to go?

Not to mention the fact that the place is actually a juvenile prison. I don't really fancy that either. At the same time, mum seems to think he'd like it, and I think she'd like it if I went... maybe I'll go in with her this weekend or something. Wait no $$. Damn centrelink cheques being so tiny.

Grr... that reminds me. Ryan is still out of work too. Which, ya know, that happens. I've been out of work longer than him. But I went on Centrelink about a month after. And he was still working then. He won't go on Centrelink, and truth be told is not trying THAT hard to get a job. I mean he's looking, but he is being picky, and only occasionally getting work from his dad. At least he was earning more when he was supporting me. It's getting fucking hard.

I just wish he'd at least go on Centrelink for a bit, that way it wouldn't be so shit. Especially with the car rego due soon, the gearbox/clutch going, it needing a service and new tyres. I can't fund all of that. Not to mention we have't paid Julia rent in months.

I know Centrelink sucks. I'm on it for fucksake and giving up half my days for their silly jobsearch bullshit just to keep getting paid. I know it sucks, and they have too many forms and too much stuffing around. But at least it's SOMETHING. We can't keep surviving on just over $300 a fortnight.

Ironically enough when Fungus was working (for about twice what I get now) and I wasn't on Centrelink, EVERYONE was pressuring me to go back with Centrelink, even though I really didn't want to for the same reasons he doesn't. All he has to do is say "I don't want to" and everyone shuts up. Why the double standards people? Is it not as hard on me to be the sole income as it was on Ryan? Isn't it doing the same things to me as it was to Ryan? Goddamit!

For chrissakes I'm earning less. More shit needs to be paid for and soon than it did a few months ago too.

Anyways I'm just bitching now. I think I need to remind Ryan of some of this stuff. I know he doesn't often read my blog, and besides it would be mean for him to read it here without me telling him. Hmm... thinking I might make this one private... A lil too personal really.

Hmm... anyways I'm off to bed.
