My life isnt wierd. Is it?

Another Post.... Finally...

Ok ok... yes I know it has been ages since I have written anything here.. The reason is that I forgot about it. The only reason I found it again is because I was looking at the other Blog I started ages ago to document my experiences with making a short film. Well, I havent done anything on that Blog but I have a good reason for that. There is no short film... it fell through like most of my other projects... So anyway, I noticed this personal blog I started and had a read of what I wrote so far.. and decided that I would add something to it. I am not sure if I will ever do this again but for now this blog lives on! Wow that's a great incentive for someone to read it or even subscribe to it.. 'Yeah lets read this blog that some has written like two entries into and thats all'. Yeah well, I am just being honest. Its probably just going to be another one of these things that I start and that I am really enthusiatic about and then lose interest and discard.

So yeah thats it really. Not a great deal has happened in my life since my last post... Well kinda has but not really. I am still working in the same job but the good news is that I am finishing up at the end of next week!! YEAH!!!!! FUCK YEAH!!!! SHIT YEAH!!!!!!!!! For those of you that don't know, I work in a shitty IT Helpdesk job for a bank in the city. The pay is good so I shouldnt really be complaining. Its just that the job kinda sucks big time and I am tired of listening to people moaning all day about how they can't print or that they have forgotten their password or how slow the internet is etc etc etc. I know there are far worse jobs out there so I really should be content. So anyway, I have decided to finish up and take some time off. I think I am going to try and take the rest of the year off if I can. Supporting my lifestyle wont be too much of a problem cause I have saved considerable amounts of cash in the last year. That along with the money I brought back with me when I was working in the UK will be more than enough to not have to worry about working for a while.

I am going to try and rediscover my creative side with my time off. The storyline that I was adapting into the failed short movie project is now being incorporated into the novel I am attempting to write. I am so hoping that this does not turn into one of these uncompleted projects. I have made a start on it which is good.. its hard going though and I find I can only manage a few pages a week at this stage. I think once I finish doing this shitty uncreative mind-numbing job I will be able to enspire myself to finish it. I am actually quite excited about working on the novel! I have my laptop with wordprocessor software loaded and waiting for me... Its going to be so cool. I can take it to inspiring places and just type the day away! I wonder if bigtime authors do the same.. I am sure they do..

So yeah... tons of stuff to still talk about. I guess I will try to continue with this blog. I am finding it strangely therapeutic in a way and I guess it is nurturing a creative frame of mind. I also think it's good to read and write about 'real stuff' rather than just fiction and quasi-fiction. These sorts of blogs are real life and I think that's what faciniates people the most..

Stay tuned.

First Post... Continued.

OK. This post starts just like the first. I am back from lunch and as predicted I am in less of a mood to ramble on here. Oh don't worry, I will still be spouting meaningless phrases like a flamin' lunatic escaping from a mental asylm. OK, now I am trying too hard. Sorry. Anway, I am back at work sitting at my desk with my freshly made, horribly tasting instant coffee, after eating my two rolls of tasty sushi I bought from the closest food court from my office I could visit. Ok, I also had a skewer of chicken pieces that didn't taste so good (they changed the recipie) but still fairly healthy over all I think. I could of done without the chicken I guess. I just love food and eating and will go through periods where I am not really that hungry and then I will go through weeks of just wanting to eat heaps. luckily, I seem to know when enough is enough and I havent really every been too overweight. I think if I let myself go though I could get really really fat. I could win a gold medal in Steak, Chicken, Pizza, Ribs and burger eating.. hahahahah My ex-girlfriend used to say things like that. She is Scottish and lives in Glasgow and can be really funny when she wants to be. She'd always say things like..'I could eat for Scotland'... She liked her food as well. I still talk to her on MSN when I see her online and emails from time to time. I do miss her sometimes.

Well I just overheard my boss say that he is going to have a network meeting. This basically means all of the network/project guys and support staff are involved. About 5 people in total. Why am I bogging this information? I don't bloody know, I guess it's a good way to say I am signing off for now but I am sure I will be writing more in the near future. I have tons to write about......

My first post.

Ok. I guess that is a good place to start. How long this blog goes on for I guess time will only tell. This may be the last post. Who knows! Why am I writing this blog anyway? Is anyone actually going to read it? And I don't mean friends that I plead and beg with...' So what do you think'..'Are my ramblings interesting?'..'Aren't I cool for having my own blog..' And I've always been the one to turn away from things that are 'this moments' cool. Mmmmmmm

That said here I am writing my personal blog. A place where I can air my dirty laundry, speak my mind, talk the talk and do the walk. Well not really but you get my drift. Man, I am already not liking this as I think it sounds too much like I am trying to sound cool. But hey, my theory is very little people are actually going to read this so it can't really add or detract from my cool factor. Write then!!! Write!!! Liberate my fingers on these plastic keys and prepare to receive the oozings of my brain.. OK this is starting to sound weird. Hey! thats the title of this blog so it fits perfectly! Man I am crap at this.

So anyway. Here I am at work, trying to manage my work load with writing this first entry into my blog. In reality, I am managing it just fine. You see, I work on a IT Helpdesk for a quite a large albeit horrendously disorganised bank in the city of Brisbane, Australia, and well it not very busy at the moment. It can get busy mind you. I guess it goes up and down like the tide. At the moment it is low tide, thank god. I hate my job. I haven't always done so. In fact, my whole life I have loved computers and IT Geek related stuff. Oh hold it a sec. My stomach just rumbled.. its 12:30 and time for lunch.. Yummy! I will continue this post later. Maybe I should publish it first so I don't get some plonker coming along and pulling the power out of my PC and losing all of this valuable stuff I have written.. Yeah right! Who am I trying to kid. God I am speaking shit now. And I hate people that speak shit!! Its one of my pet hates. OK.. Publish...Lunch..then I will be back...Hopefully I won't be in too much of a different mood and I will be able to write some more... Ciao.
