A photoblog and other things

It really has been a seesaw while I’ve been over here. I’ve had some extremely high highs but some really low lows. If you’ve been reading this blog you’ll know what some of them are. Whenever something good seems to happen something bad will happen just to even things out. I actually found some people who liked going out – much unlike a lot of the other people I’ve met here. I was so glad to meet some other people my age who were like this. A lot of other people at work are either married or in a steady relationship or just plain uninterested in going out. So Friday night was a really good night because I went out with some of the party people from work. Today I was planning on going to Key Biscayne for a swim and to get some pics because I really liked it last time I was there. There is a spot where I could get a really good shot of Miami at night. Anyway, I left at lunchtime today and I had to go fill up with fuel. I got to the bowser and couldn’t find my credit card. It wasn’t in my wallet anywhere. Ok, maybe it’s somewhere in my car. Nope, not there either. I found this really curious because I don’t carry my credit card around without it being in my wallet. I spent the whole afternoon looking for it and I can’t find it anywhere. This is really bloody weird and also highly inconvenient. So, the seesaw strikes again – good Friday night but that’s been overshadowed by losing this card. Bloody hell…

So I strummed my guitar a bit to get myself out of the mood I was in and I broke two strings. Well, I have a few books to read now so maybe I should go do that 🙂

and you don’t even need a pocket protector. These notes are taken from my observations here at work.

1) Wear sporty sneakers. The whiter the better. Sneakers like Asics Gels will do fine.

2) Wear a pair of denim jeans. The lighter blue the better. Basically whatever your mother bought you for last Christmas from the bargin bin will do.

3) Wear a belt. This will not coordinate with your sneakers at all of course, so it can’t be white. This basically leaves you with brown or black. It can be pink if you want to suggest something.

4) Have a mobile phone with a clip-on holster to attach to your belt. If you don’t, you’ll miss the call that no-one ever made to you.

5) Wear a collared short-sleeved shirt. Any colour will do. It is preferable that the colour of the collar will contrast with the rest of the shirt. For example, if the shirt is dark green the collar will be navy blue. It is VITALLY IMPORTANT that this shirt be tucked into your jeans. If it is not, you’ll instantly lose your nerd cool status. Plus, you’ll fumble around trying to find your mobile phone to answer the call that no-one ever made to you.

Firstly, props go to Frosty at http://tvrfreak.blogspot.com for alerting me to this. This is way cool. I’ve always looooved the Koenigsegg and I non-stop dribble about it. It’s always been the desktop wallpaper of choice for my computer, and OMG, it’s coming to Oztralia. I wish I could go see it at the Australia International Motor Show. If you live in Sydney or are even planning to go there for this, please go and appreciate this awesome supercar for me.

(ps – Nav, that means I expect you to go and take some pictures of this car and all the other cool cars that will be there, but especially this car).

At night these little chargers can be found jumping around just outside my apartment. This one is about the size of a 20c coin.

I haven’t stepped on any… yet.
