5 things

I'm in a survey kind of mood today. I took this from The Oral Report, or was it AAA's?
Hmmm... not sure, but I stole it from one of you cool cats. And changed it a little.

Of course, these things give an insight into who I really am... but I know you don't really give a fuck... so I'm just doing it the pass the time, between my boss looking over my shoulder... and my boss, annoying the fucken CRAP out of me!!!!

Here goes...

5 things...

In my fridge.
1) Olives
2) Champagne
3) Anchovies
4) Avocadoes
5) Various other life forms... i HATE cleaning out my fridge

In my closet.
1) Clothes... and lots of 'em
2) Porn... and lots of it
3) Various shoe boxes of happy snaps... mostly from road trips with friends and family gatherings
4) Snow Board
5) Twister - the game. Don't ask.

In my car.
1) A slow/casserole cooker - A hand me down from Mum, that I gratefully accepted, but never really wanted.
2) Spare jacket and shoes... four seasons in one day, here in Melbourne
3) A 'thing' that pumps up my broken (leaking) tyre when I plug it into the cigarette lighter. Its so loud, it sounds like I'm jack-hammering the pavement - Embarassing and just the tool to attract extremely unhappy neighbours.
4) A jerry can. From the time I ran out of petrol (2 years ago)... I keep it in there, because I'm convinced that as soon as I take it out, it WILL happen again!
5) Spare umbrella

In my purse.
1) Strawberry Lip Balm - an everyday necessity
2) Moisturiser

Only in Aus

Only in Australia, could you publicly give the Prime Minister a random, big birthday bear hug, with a SCREW DRIVER in your hand and NOT get shot in the head.



Lucky kid.

Stuck in a rut


As some of you may have noticed, things in YGF land have been riding the downward spiral to gloomsville.

Life sucks the ass around here, at the moment.

I have been reluctant to post about it because, well, I want to keep things upbeat... in the hope of cheering myself up. But perhaps writing about it would be better!

Don't worry, I'm not at the stage where I am thinking about doing any wrist slashing or self mutilation in general... but it is true, I'm not my usual, laid back, happy self. And I miss it. So does J and anyone else close to me.

I'm working a mundane office job to gain the experience I need to continue in the industry, after I finish my degree.
I get paid penunts for it.

My wage hardly covers my expenses. I am constantly moving backwards with my finances. I owe J more money than anyone.
But my credit card company gets more angry about it. Believe me.

As you all know I am moving in with a friend (as soon as we find a place) to reduce my monthly expenses.

unfortunately, that seems to be far away and I'm finding myself needing to do something quick before I find myself in a code grey emergency.

The worst part is, I don't know what to do.

Should I ask for a pay rise?! Should I just tell my boss, to stick his stupid dumb job up his pompous, ugly butt?!!?
Should I start waitressing at nights again?!!? Should I sell my soul to the devil?!?! Should I start drug running?!?!?! Or start sleeping my way to the top?!?!!

Of course I'm joking about a few of those options. But I am seriously at a loss on what to do.

My constant bad mood is causing more of a strain on J and I - and I'm sure you all remember that more strain means we are nearly at breaking point. He is tired/stressed/pissed off too and the pressure of having to look after me all the time is slowly getting to him I'm sure.

I just feel like such a burden on everyone.

And, yes, I'm lacking the confidence to make the first step. And I'm not sure where I want to go!!!

All I know is I'm willing to do some temp office work, waitressing, whatever to get my finances back on track.

But am so CONFUSED!!! DAMNIT!!!!!

Wolfmother Tickets

Who the hell does a girl have to sleep with to get tickets for this sold out show!?!?!?

I would absolutely LOVE to go. So would a lot of my friends. And last night, over a couple of after work drinks, we discussed exactly what we would do to get our hands on one.

These are a few of the disgusting things I would do, to see Wolfmother in concert.

- Sacrifice my beloved I-pod, by smashing with a sledge hammer - I would try not to cry.
- Sleep with David Spade - and try not to gag.
- Touch Rosie O'Donnell's ass. Or let her grab mine - Not sure what would be worse!
- I would voluntarily travel to Sydney (if y'all have been around here long enough, you know that is torture for me) - We missed the Melbourne show.
- I would pash K-Fed - and Britney if she wants it!
- I would give my cell phone away to a random person on the street.
- Anytime someone in my office would approach me, I would flash my boobs.

I would almost sacrifice my first born to Satan, just to be at that concert.

Anyway...

In other news... well, there isn't much.

In short -

Hate my job.
Hate my wardrobe.
Need a hair cut.
Need a pay rise.
Need a new apartment.
My car has a flat tyre.
I don't know how to change it.
I need someone to take care of me.
I like gravy.

Later,

YGF x

I would definetly watch this!

... for a cheap laugh. How entirely hilarious!!!



___________
Mr T, star of '80s action TV show The A Team, is returning to TV. T is currently filming a Dr Phil-style talk show where he will dish out advice to audience members. The show's called I Pity The Fool, and T gave the Associated Press a taste of the sort of comments he's going to dish out. "You're a fool if you don't take my advice," he said...

Dream



The Soup Nazi was in my dream last night.

I was walking in the woods, with a chick I had never seen before - she reminded me of Punky Brewster.
We were looking for a horse to ride home.
We found 2.

I preferred the one that looked like My Little Pony - purple with pink sparkly hair.
She wanted the one that looked like a stray, shabby cat.

For some reason, we could only have one.

All of a sudden we were having a physical fight - hair pulling, face scratching, punching, the lot.

The Soup Nazi appeared from behind the trees and began keeping score, like a referee, and I was totally kicking her ass.

He declared me the winner.
Then I woke up.

I have weird dreams.
I gotta stop watching Seinfield re-runs.

TOP 5

Things are pretty intense over here in YGF land. Lots of stress, not enough sleep, really bad paychecks and serious thoughts about joining strip club staff!!!

So I thought I might keep it happy and upbeat, and bore you with the details later.

Recently, I was having a discussion with some friends about their respective Top 5's.

It seems everyone has a little list of the 5 people, they would most enjoy rubbing up against.
I bet you do!

So here is mine, in no particular order:


Mathew McConaughey - Dimples make me weak.


Billy Crudup - in Almost Famous especcially... Yummo!!


Brandon Lee - R.I.P. - The best was yet to come.



Orlando Bloom - Kate Bosworth is one lucky gal


&
Rachel Bilson - she's a tiny little thing, but damn hot!

Have I tickled anyone's fancies????

Later, YGF

Not that great



I wasn't entirely impressed with this.

And that disappointed me.

So generally, I was disappointed.

How about you?

The Turkey Slap



Since when is joking around sexual harassment???

Ok, perhaps I am a little more relaxed about this topic than others. Perhaps I believe that having a joke and fooling around, is just that. Others think differently and I respect that. But, come on people, learn to laugh!!

In comparison with other countries, Big Brother is entirely tame here in Aus. Apart from a few make out sessions and some nudity; it’s really quite timid.
But there was an incident recently, where two male housemates participated in “turkey slapping” a female housemate. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkey_slap

All parties involved were laughing and generally just joking around. Sure, the female housemate did not give permission for it to happen, but how do you give permission for someone to whack you on the forehead with their penis! The female housemate was still laughing after the ‘incident’ and nothing else was spoken about it. She was not offended in the slightest. The next day, the two male housemates involved were evicted for sexually harassing her.

If this happened to another male housemate, I doubt anyone would even notice. Instead, the situation has been blown out of proportion, completely.

Meanwhile, these two male housemates reputation have been dragged through the mud and the program’s ratings have sky rocketed – and I don’t see this is an accident.

The only reason I am interested in this incident is because, ‘sexual harassment’ is a term that flies around like ‘hello’ and ‘goodbye’, these days. Or, maybe saying hello to someone is now considered sexual harassment!

Slapping someone playfully on the bum is.
Looking at a woman’s breasts is also considered harassment.
“Hey, you look hot today”, can also be taken out of context.

It pisses me off.

Weather

Australian Weather according to Chopper.

This is old over here, but still a goodie.

None of you will know who Chopper Read is so here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopper_Read

This is a segment from a comedy show over here... the Chopper clips have become extremely popular. Hopefully you will understand why.

Makes me laugh, of the out loud, rolling around on the floor kind.

*Not suitable to play while your boss/little children are near by.
