Nice view - I love Tasmania. On my property, there's often kangaroos and wallabies grazing very early in the morning. In the afternoon, there's always lots of different birds around. Our neighbour has been feeding them for years - Parrots, Gallahs, and thousands of Cockatoos. When they finish eating, they come for a drink in my damn. I never tire of watching them.

Watching my daughter in a swimming tournament. Well, I'm supposed to be watching her, but there are too many pushy parents screaming at their kids, so I've taken a back seat to check out TB until her heat.

It's very warm in here....I could very easily just nod off.

Some friends came over for a jam. Good musos, but lightweights in the drinking department. It's 3am and they're all asleep, except for my girlfriend who is trying to read what I'm typing, but she's so drunk, she can't maintain a coherent sentence. I wish she'd just go to sleep - she's an annoying drunk.

Now she's giving me a hard time for calling her an "annoying drunk". I should have said "obnoxious". Now I'm in for it, so time to go.

On my futon watching TV in the background, reading TB on my iPhone. Just finished a Coke Zero.

sitting in my computer chair trying to write a scholarship essay about why I want to study biology but I keep getting distracted by reminiscing about the mission trip that I just got back from. Man I miss my group

I also miss not having to worry about the time

I just spent 45 minites in torrential rain rescuing my pump (from the damn) from going underwater. It's being hammering rain here for days, and it's getting very old. Of course my German Shepherd - the noble Sir Zachary, insisted on coming with me (he never leaves my side), so I spent another half an hour trying to wash the mud off him. My terrier (Worf) stayed in the house (he's no fool). It just goes to show, there's a very fine line between loyalty and stupidity.

I'm at work watching my SQL queries run as I type up my to-do list for the week before my 9:30 meeting.

Are they racing SQRirrels, and how fast do they run? If so, what are they doing at your place of business? Is it a professional Squirrel racing operation?

In my cube.

I was here this morning:



Significantly better than the cube. Hard to believe this is a 5 minute drive and 30 minute snowshoe from downtown.
