hosting ugliness

So it’s been almost 4 days since this blog died an ugly death. Two of the MySQL servers of the hosting company stopped working (with no explanation given) and when I contacted them they said that I should check the “known current issues” section in the account control panel. In less words; they suck. They […]

Merry Christmas Bitches!

Yoooooooooooo kids! This week the Royal Show is in town, resulting in a public holiday today! The Royal Show has attracted many a country boy into the big smoke, so naturally someone capitalised on it and threw a huge Hoe Down dance party. Maaaaaaaaaaaan, do I look HAWT in my cowboy getup! […]

Stupid stuff

Well I quit my job. It was a heat of the moment thing. I’m not even sure why I quit in the end, but I am mostly glad that I did.
So I went out with the guys from work last night, had a few beers, but was still pretty sober. Brendan the Norwegian […]

Are you being served?

I tend to talk about my work a lot. I do love my work, and in my experience it is hard to find people who love working in hospitality, are committed to the industry and think of it as a ‘real career’ rather than as a job to do while looking for something else. […]

Update

It’s very hard to find a title for this post because I don’t really have a main subject that I can focus upon, it’s more of a random series of rambling “this is what is happening in my world, far, far away from you nice folk, not that you’re really interested.” The problem is, […]

if i hear the word pancake one more time today i may just scream

As you all already know, unless you’ve spent your day in a coma, today is Pancake Day (officially called Shrove Tuesday). All day people talk about pancakes, then make pancakes, then eat pancakes, then talk about pancakes and so on. It is like all of the sudden everyone gets sucked into the same obsessive compulsive […]

Daily facts/rants

I’ve not posted for a few days so I’ve decided to post some daily facts about me to try and make up for it.
1. I started university today. I’m attending one of the better universities in my city, arguably the best in the state. I’m studying business with a major in Human Resources and a […]

We’re off to see the Wizard!

The Brisbane city council has recently increased water restrictions, something that’s to be expected living in a dry country. Also today they released a task force report which stated that if we didn’t reduce our greenhouse gas emissions soon that Brisbane would be flooded. I now intend to go out and pollute as much […]

on the train back from training (part 2; Mood-swing Colin)

“Ugly/nosey girl” finally sodded off and in came “nice little old lady sporting last century’s hairdo”. Wow, I do get cranky when I’m tired.
But how could I not be when I had to use the tube twice today. Yes, the place of choice of every Londoner to fart. Why? Were all the lifts taken? I […]

alpha…beta…gamma…delta…epsilon… (etc.)

I’m hating that the web is in beta. Everywhere you turn. Every site you visit. Every link you click. This four letter sequence hits you like it’s supposed to mean something. There’s no point in websites being in beta. Not when they’re working fine and have been for over a year now! Take gmail for […]
