-grumble- -grumble-

hmm....!

Another Saturday spent sweltering ... -glowers at her defunct aircon- watching boring daytime tv -throws a pillow at the austar box-


Although I must admit I usually watch the business reports on a Saturday and the random documentaries on the ABC and SBS so really I can't complain.. the complaints will start again tomorrow when there seems to be a requirement for the all of the stations to broadcast sport.. and Cricket is back in full swing 'yay' -groanz-


Lauren is now settled over at Elcho Island (aka Galiwinku ... no idea if that is spelt right) and when she called me right at the climax of House on Thursday.. (hrmm) she sounded good for the brief time that I spoke to her (honestly you think she would have picked up that House is the only TV show that I watch with any sort of dedication. Hugh Laurie is awesome, although I like him better in the Black Adder Series...)


Hmm.. I am getting really excited about travelling as I keep reading the blog of Mik, who is currently off on his 3rd or 4th 'trip of a lifetime' traipsing around the globe.. primarily in sth America.


Why the 'Hmm'? I am a bit worried about how I am going to find a warm coat in cairns in the -thinks- 12days before I head o/s. Any suggestions?

I was thinking lifeline or something... as maybe some Mexicans moved to cairns and ditched their coats or ppl who bought coats during winter decided that they were crazy :P hehe

Well I'd better get back to profiling my students and planning for next year as realistically I wont be doing much of that during my holidays... so yet another weekend spent doing school work... -shrugz-


Possibly why I find it so frustrating when people go on about teachers getting so many holidays etc etc... I work most days 12+ hours during the week and at least 6hrs over the weekend... also I do not get a choice when I go on holidays... so it is always 'peak' season when I get my breaks... -takes a deep breath-

So on that cheerful note.. I'll bid you adieu
