You know how sometimes work takes over your life. Except life has been crazy as all hell lately so work and life started fighting with sleep and its been two ridiculously hectic weeks and I cant remember the last time I wrote here or what I did yesterday or why everything is so busy. I'm tired though. Its a good tired though.
Today was 4 years and 6 months for Domi and I. Celebrations were in order and so we did.
Good night people. Enjoy the fight.
This is it really. Its my blog. After all those times I read everyone elses thoughts I have finally began to publish my own. Hope you enjoy!

My Hectic Hell of a Time
These last couple of weeks could not have been any more hectic. I swear if life moved any faster I wouldn't be able to see you through the blur. The reason life has been so crazy is that for the last two weeks I have been running the business due to my father being pretty sick. In between organizing a couple of big jobs and working like crazy, Domi and I have also been incredibly busy. This week for instance, we have seen two gigs, had tea with friends, a birthday and its only bloody Thursday, let alone the weekend which was just a mess of events and driving from one end of town to another.
Monday night was the first gig, its was Alexisonfire at HQ. This is the sixth or seventh time I have seen these guys and I swear they get better every time. We ended up sitting in the VIP section with a couple of other friends who play in bands and are connected in that scene. We sat right up in the roof rafters looking down over the whole crowd and the band. It was a great vantage point and made the gig even better. They played a couple of songs I had never heard them play live before as well as covering a Midnight Oil song which I thought was hilarious/awesome! An incredible start to the week.
Work was work Tuesday but I worked ridiculously hard and after a late night I was buggered that night but it was off to see Paramore with Domi and some other peeps. Domi is a huge fan so the tickets were a bit of a birthday present. I'm not a huge fan but I know a few songs and they put on a great live show so they were interesting to see. Domi loved it so that's all that counts. We watched the band and then bolted to our car to get home to bed. Another late night followed by a huge struggle to get out of bed the next morning.
Last night we had a nice tea with one of Domi's work colleagues, She is a really nice girl and its great to finally have put a face to the girl I speak to on the phone. It was bliss to have a mildly relaxing night before we get cranked up for the weekends festivities.
The most important event of this week is my fiance Domi's birthday today!!!!! Happy birthday babe. Love you. Enjoy your day.
Bye now.

My Commonwealth Games
There are many things that are awesome about the Commonwealth games. There is the great sporting events, the many different types of sports, the fact that Australia wins everything but the absolute peak of the games appeal are all the funny names of the athletes.
So far I have picked up on a few. In the swimming Australia has Emily Seebohm, pronounced "C-Bomb", we all have a friend who is a C*NT. Also from Australia we have the table tennis player Miao Miao, pronounced "Meow Meow", hilarious. The best I have seen so far was a tennis player from Scotland, Mhairi Brown, Pronounced "My Hairy Brown", she lost her match but because of her name she is a winner in my eyes, I'm great full she didn't flash her Hairy Brown to the crowd though!
Anyway, this has been another working week. I'm still working at a Stimulus site. Its not very exciting but I think today will probably be my last day. Then it will be on to the next job, could be here could be there, but you know I will either be digging a hole or filling one in. Woot.

My Stimulating Work
I have been stimulated. And no its not a weird as it sounds. The government is still carrying on with its economic stimulus packages through its school building programs and this last week I have been working at one of those site. Technically I have now been stimulated by Julie Gillard! Not the nicest really, but the money was nice. We dug a trench from here to there and then filled it in, you know the usual, but because its a government building site there is a lot of rules and regulations that you have to comply with to work there. The is nearly someone watching you all the time to make sure you don't do anything you shouldn't or are not licensed to do. Its a bit tedious.
Apart from that it really had been a mundane week. Celebrated the grand final rematch today at Nicoles house as well as a bit of a party for her birthday. It was such a beautiful day and a bit of a change because we all sat out in the warm sunshine. Its definitely starting to warm up. A good day with good people and a great BBQ, what more could you want really.
Anyway, talk soon, yea?
