 Why Gossip can be bad

I went out last night to a friend’s house for dinner. Her father in law made this awesome indian meal, I couldn’t even tell you about the various dishes that we had. I do know that cardamon was used by the handful, and that is one of my favourite spices of all time. The night was ended with some very nice chocolate fondu, marshmallows and fruit. I only had a couple of bits, I didn’t want to over eat.

I also have now caught up with a friend who was at the dinner and they asked me a question about D. Whether or not we had a fight recently. They commented to me, that D had been bitching about me and something I said. To their way of thinking, if I have had a go at someone, they probably deserved it. I confirmed that D and I had a falling out in November 06, in email.  So I replied that I would still consider her a friend, and it would be up to her. She never spoke to me again. I saw her a few weeks ago for dimsum, where I took J with me for reinforcements since I thought it possible that D might ignore me, and make it difficult for me to chat, she didn’t and I had the bonus of having J there so we both had a good time.

Someone has now told me that D had been telling people that X and I had broken up due to him being gay, apparently, they have corrected her. It brings into light 2 things.

1: perhaps i didn’t tell her because i was possibly worried about the gossip factor

2: she has been bitching about me behind my back.

I am far from perfect. I was embarrassed about what had happened to my relationship. I hadn’t figured it out, that I was sleeping with a man, who wanted to be a woman. My judgement was and is so skewed, I don’t know what is normal anymore based on experience with a fake man for 11 years.

I would like to see anyone go through what I have been through, and not be a little bristley and damaged. I have apologised to everyone who I hurt during those years when I was dealing with my personal life. I apologised to D. I am a better friend now than I was then, and I appreciate those who have let me deal with my shit, and welcomed me back.

If me (technically single) being at a party full of couples spoils D’s night? What a shame. Don’t think I didn’t hear about that comment either.

I normally don’t edit posts, but I have read this one, and decided to remove certain things. Not everyone needs to read it on the intarweb.

 Of cat pee and silk ties

Now that the move to my parent’s house is complete, I am happy to start relaxing and getting into the move of living at home. Already I have started unpacking but there is now an unfortunate side effect.

One of mum’s cats doesn’t like the fact I am taking up mum’s time.

She has peed on a towel, a scarf and tonight I found my beanbag has also been peed on. Guess that will need to be chucked out.

Parentals are going to a wedding tomorrow, and I am going to an indian dinner with friends, that shoujld be very nummy! Now the reason for the silk ties part in my blog header, I purchased one for dad today. He is going to be matching mum’s outfit

One a side issue - some dude that dad had been talking to has been calling all week to speak to him. He runs a website for betting, and wanted dad to invest money into it. Now this dude spoke to me several times this week due to me being home. I told him dad was back at work, and to call after 6pm at night. Said that twice. He rang today, and mum answered the phone as she and I were heading out the door. Basically she said that she was about to go to work and goodbye. Hung up on him. He rang back 3 times straight after that, but obviously we couldn’t be bothered picking up the phone, and off we went to our different places to go.

He sent dad a rather abusive email. Telling him to go put on a blouse and spend his time outside in the flowers and stop pretending to be a man, if he was going to hide behind a woman. How nasty. I won’t list the website here, since I don’t want the abuse then directed back here at me, but if anyone is interested, I can always email you the website URL. :P

UPDATE  27/05/07 :: Dad emailed the dude back a short simple and sweet email on Friday night. He stated that myself and my mother had been picking up the phone as we were both at home and he was now back at work. He sent a reply Saturday, apologising with some BS excuse. What a complete tard.

 Virtual Terrorism?!

Second life is all the rage at the moment. Starting a couple of years ago, there are people now who have income derived from buying and selling things in a made up e-world.

I was driving home from my flat back to my parent’s house and I heard Robbie Buck talking about this huge tragedy. No one knew how many casualties there were, and there was no official comment from the government yet. Then he announced it. ABC Island on Second life had been hacked, and bombed.

I started laughing my ass off. It reminded me of one of my favourite youtube clips.

So these are the pics that the ABC took, before and after the Virtual terrorism took place.

I want to know, what kind of anti terrorism legislation is there that will apprehend these deviants!

Classic stuff. This is why i love the internet.

 Settling in…

It has been a few days,  mainly due to now being sick with the flu, getting sinusitus and now staying home from work.

I will be handing the keys into the realestate agent tomorrow, and glad to get away from the place. I am hoping that I will get back my bond, or most of it.

One of the irritating things over the week has been when I was picked up by the cops for not having brake lights. I didn’t know the brake lights were not working, lucky for me, they didn’t see the cracked windscreen. :P  So I got let off with a stern warning. I now have 2 functional brake lights.

 Returned to the nest

Made it home finally to my parents house, and currently sitting alone in the loung room, the gas fire is on, foxtel is switch to some trashy CI channel where it´s non stops COPS and those atrocious NZ version cops stuff.

Mum´s cat, mishmish is doing a good impression of a dead cat in front of the fire and I am definitely coming down with the flu, my body aches more than it should, unless it was to do with me walking up and down those freaking stairs for the last 3 days with boxes and bags. I have thrown out so much shit and my belongings and given stuff away to the dudes who live downstairs.

I am really tired, lemsip is my friend, and I am not going to work tomorrow.

 Evil Leprechauns and other such nonsense

My boy and I like watching documentaries together, however this time, we have started finding some really bad movies online. However the Leprechaun dude would be one that was on Channel 7 tonight. Leprachaun 4: Space Marines.

What the hell was this crap movie about! A killer leprechaun in space? What the?


evil leprechaun
To top it off, there were others that were made befoer this one, which is rated the worst one out of all of them.So the Youtube movie tonight, is about King solomon mines, think of the precursor to Indianna Jones. I will attached it for you below. Should always be interesting watch the originals, which has some very nice singing.

And this is something we watched last night. Voyage to the planet of Prehistoric Women. Women wearing clamshell bikinis who worship a Pteradactyl. They end up worshipping something else.

Link to the full movie is here and below is a small sample of what to expect, via Youtube!

 Playing with BumpZee and moving more stuff…

Greg made some random postage the other night, mentioning this website called Bumpzee and to join the australian community that had been established. So I have hooked in waiting to see what it’s like and to see who dips their toes into the blogpond to see what nibbles.

I watched some FA cup football with dad tonight, after I went through and dumped some of my clothes over at my parents house. The room I am staying in was my sisters when we lived at home. We had some cool times in there, but I can’t help but think some of the stuff we used to get up to, still hasn’t been dealt with. I am going to be using my smudge stick to dispel any bad spirits.

I am pretty tired, but I need to spend some quality time with my boy. So I am online and talking to him. He lives so far from me. Sooner I am there, the better.

 Packing and moving back home

It is that time again, moving! I have been moving everything into the lounge room, which for me, is pretty heavy work considering that I am doing this by myself, I have packed the crystal, cleaned the glass shelving, and looking at my pantry.. I feel bad. So much shit there, I am just going to have to dump it all! Hang on, why should I feel bad, it´s not like I can use any of it.

I have been dusting and cleaning, and have packed 2 large suitcases, and have a plastic bag full of clothing, and a smaller case full of my undies and socks! I had no idea i had so much.

The broken crockery so far, is 1 plate, 2 candle holders.

I am a little worried about the washing machine, but my sister is taking it, it should be OK.

I also changed the shower curtain tonight, I am not leaving a $59 dollar shower curtain behind, when they can get a nice looking $16.95 one. I am thinking I might go to the laundromat and clean the laundry mats, and the toilet mat, but might do that on Monday.

One more thing that I found out, they are advertising my flat at $230 per week. That is ridiculous. It isnt worth $230!!! That tells me that the owner wants to put it up that high when he does his next rental increase in December.

The FA Cup finals are on tonight. Man U Vs Chelsea. I am of course a Chelsea supporter.. so WOOHOO!
