She's 8 months, and Pekingese/Chihuahua mix. She has the sweetest temperament, too. A friend of ours saw her on Craigslist and posted it on her wall. We'd been wanting a small dog for a while (we like big dogs, but we live in an apartment so we don't have room, and we wanted something the cats wouldn't be too terrified of) and we fell in love with the pics we saw.

The pics did not do that face justice!

Sorry!!! Her! She's beautiful!
Don't mind me, my mind went for a walk Vacation overdue.

Woohoo!

My wife just won BOTH of the jobs she applied for in Canberra (with her current employer). There was a management dispute over releasing her so the Canberra office just gave her both jobs - a permanent transfer at level and a 12 month higher duties opportunity.

We are stoked!

She starts in a month so we... aaaaah... have a lot of work to do!

Work will pay for packing, shipping, flights for the family, accommodation while we seek a house to rent and delivery of the car (I enjoy the drive but I'm not in the mood for a 1200km drive right now).

I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that we're moving. Again! It's my home town and I love it and miss it terribly.

Can't wait!

Oh, and family don't know so if you know me on FB, please keep it quiet for now.

We moved today. The movers have gone and I am now enjoying a nice sit and relax for half an hour. I LOVE this place

First dark, windy autumn nights are here. I just love the first couple of weeks of when the seasons change.

The post office people have invited me for a final-stage interview. Here's hoping I impress them enough to hire me!

So, Steph & I actually properly live together now. We have our own flat that we pay for out of our fairly newly acquired joint account.
Feels good, man. We really enjoy having our own place and space, taking care of one another and just doing what we want.
The flat itself doesn't really feel like a flat seeing as we've got multiple floors, The rooms are quite spacious as well. We love it

Oh, and the cat settled in very well as well.

Sounds lovely! I'm really happy for you both

congrats you guys

Congrats and hooray for everyone!!


This may seem like a minor thing but... I got my own desk! At university I now have a key to an office with a desk, a locker and (soon) a computer in it which are all mine! Although we are many sharing this office, it means so much to have a place that is mine where I can work at university. No more lingering in the corners and sofas in the hallways, no more computer labs, no more library! I can actually leave my stuff to wee!

Now, major thing: My dog had puppies last week!! Three lovely tiny chubby ones. The un-awesome part is that I don't get to be with them (unless I decide to take a long weekend home... I might. My supervisor just had a baby. He'll understand.)

Words cannot properly convey how much I envy you. That sounds so sweet. At this point I'm just about ready to volunteer to personally install cushions to our computer labs incredibly noisy metal door.

I wholly support this! I still remember the daaaark days of spending every day, from early morning to late evening in the computer lab. *gets chills* My bum hurts by the mere thought of it. We could have used some cushioning as well.

I just watched the awesome intro to the 1987 teenage mutant ninja turtles and actually concentrated on what was happening. Not sure why but for some reason it hit me like a ton of bricks just how goofy and insane the intro is. It literally felt like I was losing my goddamn mind

Haha yeah I know dem feels! It's so stupid yet brilliant and will always be my favourite kids show...Even the Michael Bay movie reboot coming shortly wont change that regardless of how poor it may turn out to be.

I'm gonna watch it now.

Anneke fondled my hair about an hour ago. That was quite awesome. Brazilian blow dry just pays for itself.

I had some Macaroni and Cheese with Bacon in it last night. It was awesome.
