Happy new year everyone! Yea it's been a while since I've posted anything. Been really busy with work; then Christmas and the New Year rolled around. I've been meaning to post something, but my computer broke. I think the motherboard's had it. Fortunately, I also have a spare mini-PC. Unfortunately, that broke too. Bloody Western Digital HDD. That's the 4th one to go in 3 years. Never again will I buy one. Seagate all-the-way.
I've been wanting to ride, and I did manage to get out on the bike. Once. Until it broke too. On Christmas day. So I spent my Christmas afternoon stranded on the side of the road while waiting for Aidz to pick me up. Well, at least it will be a memorable Christmas - if nothing else. Big thanks to Aidz and Rob for coming with a bike trailer to take me home. The gearbox has packed-up and I think it's the selector fork for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. The bike won't start either. Not sure how much it will be to fix; I might just Ebay it and upgrade to a bigger bike. Not long to go now before I can jump on a bigger bike anyways.
I managed to get some Christmas / Boxing Day shopping done during my time off work. Oh yea, that's right - I didn't manage to get leave till the week before Christmas. So I didn't have anything planned (aside from shopping). When it comes to shopping, I hate it when you have something on your mind but you can't ever find what you want. Or that it takes ages to find the bargain in the size that you require. I lapped Chadstone at least 20 times before finding what I want, spending 6 hours there, and only having 2 garments to show for it.
I think the highlight of my time-off was the New Years Eve party at Guaran's. It was a potluck dinner followed by games (involving dares), texas hold'em poker, mahjong and karaoke. I had a great time, mostly cos I was smashed. My canto seemed to be improving during the evening thanks to the alco. I managed to win poker too, which was great. I played some mahjong as well, and finished the night losing my voice to Bon Jovi - Bed Of Roses.
