a pretty ordinary monday. was supposed to do a half & half day of call centre work and new job stuff. sadly, we were hammered with calls so i spent more of the day on the phone. i still managed to complete a workflow management calculated 3.5 hours of work for the new team but i did that mostly between calls. my london friend, mlb, has a job interview today - please join me in wishing him lotsa luck.  1. I started blogging about nine months ago. 2. I try to post a new entry in my blog about every single day. 3. I read about 20 blogs on a regular basis. 4. I change my layout about once a year. 5. I used to be bored, and now I blog instead. 6. I spend more time blogging than I do housework. 7. I tend to blog (and visit blogs) most in the evenings. 8. The thing I enjoy most about blogging is the lovely new friends i have made.  erk... 94,118,129 - with an average of 120, that's a shocker. at least we got 8 points and are still on top!!! yippee!!! * Sunday, May 23, 2004 *sunny sunday3rd daughter blethered @ 8:54:00 PM
another lovely sunday. went down to maroubra with kim and zac. we had a coffee at the pool caffe then wandered along the rocks on the coast, still endlessly talking. the autumn days have been perfect. cool/cold mornings and gloriously sunny days with just enough heat to warm the bones. being a dalmation, zac attracts a lot of attention. he is a lovely dog and loves to be petted and talked to. i'm very flattered that the two of them are happy to travel +50km just to spend a few hours with me (*blush*). they dropped me off at baby g's birthday party and headed off home.baby g's 1st birthday party was a lot of fun, except there was no wedding. her parents had the 'wedding party' but not the wedding... baby g is as gorgeous as ever. there were lots of little ankle biters having a grand time and lots of adult friends to catch up with. all in all, an excellent sunday.

i think i've forgotten how to blog... let's see if i can remember what to do...
1. my poor little siamese fighting fishy gave up his fight and has gone to the big fish tank in the sky. 8( 2. i have continued to chat online and via phone with mr kim. we are meeting up again tomorrow. :) 3. after coffee with kim, i will attend baby g's first birthday party and her parents 'non-traditional' wedding, as first blogged about here. 4. i bought 'fargo' and 'priscilla - queen of the desert' on dvd. 5. i did more overtime today. more $$$$! i'm hoping to catch up with my blog reading. i have been lurking about but not perusing my favourite blogs with the usual intensity. * Thursday, May 20, 2004 *oops...3rd daughter blethered @ 7:32:00 PM
i've been neglecting my wee bloggy this week. i've just been too tired to come up with anything exciting to say.
monday bowling was pretty average - 132,120,112. it was an astounding 16 dog day. tuesday i worked an 11 hour day - 3 hours overtime for the $$$$. wednesday night we had a company social club event - a beer tasting at the lowenbrau keller. not being a beer drinker, i had 3 glasses of wine. it was a fun night but the wine made me want to sleep. today i found out that i should be able to start my new job at the begining of june - yippee!!! i've having a meme free week because my brain is just not up to it. next week, on payday, i'm going to organise some prizes for the 'how well do you know me' quiz. i've borrowed shirl's idea and will give prizes for all participants. the winners? nisi and harryo with 90! shirl was very close with 80! participation prizes for karen, mike and bryn. if you are happy to do so, please email your snailmail address to me (three_d59 at yahoo dot com dot au). thanks for playing! i'm off now. normal blogging will resume shortly! * Sunday, May 16, 2004 *today...3rd daughter blethered @ 7:05:00 PM
...was the day. after nearly 3 months of online and telephone chat (with almost 6 hours on the phone till 4am this morning), i finally met up with mr kim . after coffee at the globe cafe in coogee, we sat in the park above the beach and kept talking, then walked along the coast towards maroubra. he bought his lovely dalmation, zac, along too - lovely man, lovely dog. it was a perfect warm autumn day - just right for wandering around in the sun. i lost count of how many dogs were out and about. it was easily over 50!
* Saturday, May 15, 2004 *did you miss me?3rd daughter blethered @ 4:16:00 PM
i forgot to say in my last post that i would be away for a few days, visiting the parental unit. i had a rostered day off on friday so decided i probably should go see my mum and dad. i haven't been since christmas. bad third daughter... they only live about 30 miles away (not quite an hour in the train), so it's not like i have to travel for ages to get there. spent some time in retail therapy with my mother. she bought me an early birthday present. i got two nice pairs of pinstriped trousers for work wear. the ones i'm wearing now are over 5 years old and starting to show their age. they were a bit long but mum took them up for me, so i don't have to rely on my own lacklustre needle skills (or staples and stickytape as i've done in the past.) we had a really yummy baked chicken dinner last night. the type that only mothers manage to make so well. as usual i was spoilt rotten and had breakfast made for me this morning before going off to work for overtime.
anyway i'm home now. going out tonight so i might blether on some more later. * Wednesday, May 12, 2004 *tantrum free blogging!!3rd daughter blethered @ 9:20:00 PM
8 dogs, spent most of the day off the phone collating the call centre statistics. currently engaged in kimchat. pay day. what more could a girl want?happy 66th birthday to my mother and happy 25th wedding anniversary to my oldest sister and her husband.  1. What is the most annoying thing about school? um, it's been nearly 27 years since i left school. i think it was homework... 2. How much control do you need over your life? just enough to keep myself out of trouble. i'm not a control freak. 3. Would you rather have a perfect, or interesting life? Why? interesting. perfect is boring. i like bumps and scratches.

let's start again... i'm a dummy who got confused... sorry about my little tantrum...normal blogging will now resume... we'll pretend it's tuesday... (to the point where i've cheated and changed the date...) another day where nothing much has happened. a 7 dog day with some quality kimchat. i've found out that we have a new starter in the call centre on may 20th, so hopefully i can start my new job early in june. i'm getting very antsy, waiting for the day when i'm no longer chained to my desk by the headset.  Reunited and it feels so good! Tuesday at 9/8 central CBS is running the 159th episode of one of it's classic TV series: The Dick Van Dyke Show Revisited. This episode was written 40 years later, with all the surviving cast members in it. This will be an actual episode, with the actors in character, not just actors sitting around reminiscing about the good old days. Bill Persky, the show's writer-producer, said in TV Guide: "Everybody's memory was not what it was. We could remember a joke from 40 years ago, but we couldn't remember whether we decided to do a scene this way or that way. Everybody had something they almost remembered, so when we were looking for a title, I came up with The Dick Van Dyke Show Almost Remembered. The comic timing was terrific - except when they couldn't hear anything. There was a lot of "What? What? What?" The greatest below-the-line expense was for hearing aid batteries." On that note, how do you feel about reunion shows? 1. What show would you like to see brought back for an hour or two episode, to see how the characters are doing now? (This should be a show that it might be possible to do a reunion on.) the young ones. would they have jobs yet? somehow, i doubt it... 2. Pick a show that could not realistically be brought back for a reunion, because some or all of the cast members are gone. What if they could have done a reunion before it was too late? Name the show you'd most like to see. number 96 - the man who played alf sutcliffe used to be my landlord back in 1983 when i lived in rozelle. 3. Which reunion show have you watched and thought "Wow, they should have left that one alone!" i cannot say that i have ever watched a reunion show of any sort, so i cannot answer this question... ~Bonus~ Which do you prefer- a "reunion" episode of the series, or a "cast reunion" where the actors sit around and talk about the making of the show? definitely a 'reunion' episode.  A Fashion "Don't" 1. Should You Wear White After Labor Day?: um, i have no idea, i don't wear white... 2. Do You Wear Sandals w/ Socks (be honest)?: never 3. Panty Lines must be Avoided at All Costs (T or F)?: who cares... 4. Do You Own a "Little Black Dress"?: no 5.

i'm possibly going to meet kim, of kimchat, later this afternoon. he is in the city for work and we will try to meet up for coffee when he finishes. nervous as anything, but looking forward to meeting him after two months of online/phone conversations...update @ 9:54pm: the universe threw up some circumstances beyond our control, so no coffee today. currently chatting and organising another date/time to meet. disappointed but relieved. always strange meeting a virtual friend in real time. apart from that, today i finished the housework and have not done much else. it is cold and raining. i'm thinking of getting the heater out of it's little hideyhole in the fireplace. that is the bricked up fireplace that does not allow a real fire to be lit... i'd like a real fire but knowing me, i'd burn the place down...

this week has been the slowest week on record, ever... the last 15 minutes at work yesterday felt like an hour. i spent the whole minute known as '5:29' with my finger hovering over the logout button on my phone, praying that the gremlin in my headset would not shout 'beep' to herald the arrival of another call.
it wasn't all bad. i went down to virgin records at lunchtime to pick up a cd i had ordered and found 'four weddings & a funeral' on dvd for only $4.99!! yippee!! of course i had to buy it!! after work, i went to visit shell & kt at their house. we listened to some funky music and had a few drinks. i arrived home about 10pm, very tired and just a wee bit tipsy. i tried to blog but gave up and decided to have an early night instead. i have a heap of housework to do today, but as usual i am putting it off in favour of a nice saturday morning blogcruise... i suppose i should go now. the quicker it's done, the more time i'll have for fun. seeya. * Thursday, May 06, 2004 *neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours...3rd daughter blethered @ 9:54:00 PM
i hate being woken up before i have to be awake.
i hate being woken up by a drunk neighbour who thinks it is ok to press my intercom buzzer at 2.50am to tell me to let him into the building. you do not want to know what my response was. it involved a finely crafted string of a certain four letter word at high volume. he did this three times before he realised i was not going to let him in. he does it too often, but not so late (early?). he yelled from the street up to his housemates to try to get them to let him in. miss e, who lives across the road, was woken by this lunatics yelling. she is pi**ed off, too. somebody did let the idiot in and the pathetic boy then spent 30 minutes whimpering at his own front door until his housemates let him in. they have been given notice to leave the flat and their departure cannot happen soon enough. this morning, miss e met me downstairs before catching the bus to work. she pressed their intercom buzzer at 7.50am, just for fun. so did i. it made us feel better. it better not happen again tonight. /rant anyway, at least this thursday has something to be blogged about. things to be thankful for this week: good friends - miss e, mrs jane good music - matt finish, glen campbell communication channel with my mother reopened hugs from kimi kimchat timchat peaceful chat with mlb in london able to help a friend in need * Wednesday, May 05, 2004 *me, me, meme...3rd daughter blethered @ 6:47:00 PM

The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world… In honor of Mother’s Day this Sunday (what- you forgot? Shame on you! Get thee to a Hallmark Store!)

Do you collect anything? yes, ladybirds 2. How many items do you have in your collection? um, gazillions... too many to count. coffee mugs, socks, keyrings, toys, you name it, i have it... 3.

home too late and way too tired to blog last night.
the day started well with a 12 dog bus trip to the city. a very quiet day at work. again, most of the day off the phones, entering numbers in a spreadsheet to determine how efficient the call centre is. exciting stuff! trotted off to harold park after work with about 10 of my workmates and some of their partners/friends. as usual, i could not pick a winner so i did not have a bet in every race. it was a fun night out despite a brawl in the street outside afterwards - several police cars and an ambulance turned up. too many youngsters who cannot hold their drink - that will always turn ugly. i have had a very lazy day today. slept until 9.30am and after a visit to the supermarket and a small spot of housework, i had a nice 4hr nap on the couch. a very, very lazy day. now watching '4 weddings and a funeral' on the tele while engaging in kimchat. a nice end to the day. * Thursday, April 29, 2004 *cheesy3rd daughter blethered @ 9:41:00 PM

ooh! ooh! ooh! my first 200 visitor week!a good tuesday. 15 dogs, enough nice customers to make up for the idiots referred to in last night's post. what more could a girl want. Stop me if you've heard this one... Comedy Central unveiled it's list of the 100 Greatest Stand-Up Comedians of All Time last week. (The list was quite subjective, I don't know who voted, no one asked me.) But it was a fun series of shows to watch. They are replaying it endlessly if you'd like to catch it. You can view their list here, if you'd like some help coming up with names for this week's questions! 1. Who is your favorite stand-up comedian of all time? stephen wright - a very funny man. 2. Which one could you do without? (Not your type of humor, or just plain stupid!) kevin bloody wilson - too obscene, even for me... 3. Which comedian do you think has gone on to have a great career aside from doing stand-up? jim carrey. i prefer him as a serious actor (truman show, the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind). he should ditch the comedy movie roles. ~Bonus~ If you went to a comedy club on amateur night, and they gave you some jokes and a microphone, would you go onstage? simple, NO!

i've learnt a lesson today. if you volunteer for overtime on a public holiday, volunteer for a later start than 8.00am. i got to the bus stop at 7.00 on the dot thinking i had plenty of time. i had missed the 6.58 bus and the next city bus? 7.28 - doh! sunday timetable! i ended up getting a bus to the other end of town (nowhere near where i needed to be) and got the train down to wynyard. i had time to pick up a nice hot coffee and was logged in and ready to roar by my rostered start time!there is another lesson that needs to be learnt by certain others but apparently it's not happening! it is 'that' time of year again - the end of the march quarter has been and gone & our employer customers must have their employees contributions into the fund by close of business on the 28th of this month or they face hefty fines from the taxman. they are responsible for making payments on time, yet they believe we should bend the rules for them, just because they are too lazy to do something about it until the last minute. two more days of this - it's going to be rough. enough with the moaning, here is this week's otto says: "I'm running out of ideas (hint! hint!!)

made it home, sober, by 10pm last night. i was way too tired so did not feel like drinking too much and was having a hard time staying awake. i was asleep by 11pm and slept through until 8am. by 10am, i was having a wee nap on the couch until i was woken by a phone call from mr kim at 11.30. during my nap, i had some really weird dreams. the one i was in when i woke up was very strange. i was at a 'monkees' concert with my sister and her husband. the band was crap. the sound was not loud enough for us to hear (we were seated with the angels at the point highest from the action). after the show i became lost from my sister & brother-in-law. i knew that to find them i would have to get a lift going in a downwards direction. there were two lifts but they both only appeared to be going up. when the ones that were going down did stop, they were chock-a-block full of people dressed like mother teresa. when i finally did get into a lift that was going down, it did not stop, it just kept plummeting down too fast and that's when the phone rang. i'm sure there is some sort of hidden meaning but i'll be buggered if i can work it out. any one out there who wants to have a go at interpreting it is welcome to leave a comment! today is anzac day and being the land of the long weekend, tomorrow is a public holiday. victoria & tassie will not be having the holiday so i have volunteered to work. being paid double time & a half is the best temptation to give up a day off. this afternoon after going to the supermarket, i went for a walk down to coogee and along the beach. i so wish that i had a digital camera. the sunset was the most beautiful i have ever seen. bands of pale blue & pale pink topped by a sky the colour of cream. the walk yielded a total of 19 dog sightings so i'm a happy girl. i did not have my trusty pedometer with me to tell me how many steps i had taken. it is out of action after a slight 'water-logging' incident yesterday. without going into too much detail, let me just say that while adjusting my clothes after answering a call of nature, the pedometer became detached from it's position on my waistband and went for a little swim... if i can accurately guess what you are thinking now, i will say two words: DONT ASK! anyway enough toilet talk, here are some
