STOP PRESS

This is a general note to all my 1.5 readers -

I think my quest to become blog queen of the century has been slightly interrupted (but probably died miserably as has my quest to complete a marathon before 40 and conquer Everest before 50). I have no time to do this blog and I am in no mood to do this blog. There's actually heaps going on in my life but at the moment its kinda quite crap.

Life is pretty aweful, as I said, just as I thought things had gotten better with a brand new job and a new goldfish... Two of my closest and faithful companions - Milly my aussie cat and Cupes my kiwi cat both died this monday on opposite sides of the Tasmin. Its a bit of a double whammy and I have not felt so physically and mentally disempowered for about 3 years. I've also had to travel interstate for work with a cold, but thank chemist-god for pseudoephredrine. I haven't had much sleep and my eyes are blurry from all the crying, and being a little worried about Templeton as well, having to let Milly go - he's such a gentle and loving boy. I will devote some time to their memory when I am able to do it next, but I just want you to know that there's just a little bit too much going on at the mo for me to write shit.

Sometimes, I think about how pathetic one's life is, being upset about the price of bananas and only having one cat left and plants not being watered, when there's like bombs dropping from the sky and crops not sprouting out of the groud for the 10th consequetive year and icebergs melting around you and all that even crappier stuff. Storms are often in tea cups, but hey, if you're stuck in a tea cup what can you do?

But adventures in L's world is as smooth as the DFAT carpark, in case you are wondering.
