HOLD ME DOWN
Well it's not long now. By this time tomorrow I'll know exactly when I'm finishing up work. Hopefully it's a nice slow coast to the finish line as finally all the people and clients will be someone elses problems for the possibly short time that the place has left. I've laready started to pack my things at work. There's not much left, maybe the iPod dock is about it. Everything else has been slowly shifted back home over the past couple of weeks.
So far the plan is to be in Brisbane a couple of weeks. Should be good fun, cept the fact that I'll have close to $0 to be wasting while I'm over there. Unless I can somehow manage to come across about $5000 between now and the fist week of June. Fingers Crossed for me.
If I get full of excitement I might even think about getting that Canon EOS 450D that I've been drooling over the past couple of weeks... Hmmm DigiSLR goodness! But then that's a big IF, as chances are I'll have neither the time, motovation or $$$ to get one. We'll see what JB HiFi has on the way home tonight.

TRIVIAL
Well after a breif interlude the site is back. For some reason HostRocket have been screwing around with my server, creating all kinds of chaos for me. But it's all fixed now and I'm back, with a (hopefully) much more secure site as it gave me and excuse to do some security related upgrades.
It's been a pretty full on last month for me. In the weekend just gone I got to do some work at shinTokyo which is always more fun than it sounds. It also gave me the opertunity to peruse his fine selection of merchandise of which I ended up with a heap. The haul included 3 Wii games, 4 Sakura Taisen Model Kits, 8 manga and some toys.
Although I really should start to look at slowing down my spending, I'm planning on leaving work in the next fortnight and take a holiday to Brisbane and get Bowser supercharged! Oh yes, that's right I'm going forced induction. After that, who knows. I might very well end up a doll bludger for a month or so until the savings swindle and I need a cash injection. The question I have now is do I bother to leave it a couple of weeks or just wait until I get paid on Wednesday and then jump ship?

ADELAIDE FUCKING CROWS
I can't believe how much damage I have on my paintwork when I went to the car tonight, fucking crows have scratched all over the boot and roof, causing a mockery of what was once my pristine paintwork. Ok, there's nothing that can't be buffed out with a bit of polish and a lot of elbow grease but that's not the point. I seriously think it's crow hunting season, starting tomorrow. I knew there were a few around making a nuisance of themselves but if they start targeting my car, well it's fucking ON! I'm going to fuck some crows up, and hang them at the front of the house, that will show them I mena business!

SO TIRED OF BEING MYSELF
Well it's been a long, long Easter Weekend that I would like to say that I had the pleasure of sitting around the pool doing nothing more than soaking in a tan and knocking back a few beers. But, alas, I can't for the majority of the weekend saw me bent over the car doing numerous things to make her more pretty.
I now have a new set of shiny Isotta Pedals installed as well as a set of very shiny Polished Rocker Covers. All of which was an absolute pain to get on. Still I learnt a lot poking around in the engine bay, a hell of a lot, like how to pull the majority of my car to pieces and then put it back together again, the incorrect way to remove fuel injector plugs so they break, how to use a straw to collect dropped silicone and get a mouthful of oil and the woes of installing a throttle body... all good fun.
So for the most part I've been head to toe in grease and oil all Easter, although I did manage to get some decent sleep. Working on the car is tiring.

CANON EOS 450D
There are three things this year that I have decided that I am going to have no matter what the cost. No it's not games, not car things, it's not junk. It just happens to be things that I've wanted for a very long time and can't figure out for the life of me why I have never gotten any of this stuff before.
First of all we have a laptop computer, that can be crossed off the list, as I got a really dect Asus a few weeks go but it is something that I can't belive I haven't bought earlier. I'm PC guru! But at least now I'm versed in Vista and have something to look at when people ask me tech support questions. The best part about this is it is tax deductable as well! (^_^)
Second up is the Canon EOS 450D Digital SLR. I was going to buy the EOS 400D until I found out the 450D was getting released. unfortunatly I have to wait until April before I can get my hands on one. Come on Canon I want it!
Lastly is a telescope. I'll need more study into the matter before I can decided which brand and type I want. I'm open for suggestions.

DOUBLING YOUR CAPACITY
Well I'm pretty happy I've just managed to DOUBLE the CD capacity in Bowser. For some stupid reason my car had the optional "6 mini CD" stacker in the boot and I finalyl manged to get off my ass and pick up a decent second hand cartridge to bring the CD's back to where it should be. Not that I really listen to them, but it's handy to have some more selection when I forget my iPod.
I've also managed to find an Aluminium Brake Master Cyclinder Strut Brace on eBay today and 2 sets of Aluminium TRD badges to make my car more shiny. For some reason I'm really feeling the need for some fap tastic shit on my car. I've pretty much hit the limit of things I can do before a supercharger (well I've bought a lot of stuff but yet to put heaps of it on).
But fuck yes, I am pretty wrecked today. I went to help Simone dig some stormwater trenches on wednesday night, that took until abou 1:20am and then last night I went to Jessy's to pull up the remaining carpet and remove a bunch of furniture for the new carpets. Tonight, however I'll have to move it all back in, that's assuming they have got it all in by the time I get there.

MORGAN DOLLAR
There isn’t quite anything like about getting something that you’ve kinda always wanted but thought you never would get until that morning that your sitting on your ass at work and suddenly eBay and the thing you want both pop in your head at the same time and then suddenly realise that you can have what you wanted. Well that’s exactly what happened with me this morning… what a cleaver little person I am sometimes.

LIGHT, FIRE & SOUND
Well I’ve applied for a couple of new fanlistings that I’m waiting to hear back from. Hopefully it won’t be too long and I can add the I’’S and Maison Ikkoku fanlisting. Both fantastic series in there own rights although I think I like Video Girl AI better than I’’S. Anyway. Hope to hear back soon, although with them it's unlikely. I’d still really love the Negima and Love Hina Fanlistings, just to finish off my collection of Ken Akamatsu Manga Listings, maybe one day… maybe.
