Dreamgirl

I would dig a hole all the way to China
Unless of course I was there
then I’d dig my way home
If by diggin’ I could steal
the wind from the sails
of the greedy men who ruled the world

Still you’re my best friend
And after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love after a deep sleep
Where I was Dreamin’, I was Dreamin’
Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

I was feelin’ like a creep
As I watched you asleep
Face down in the grass,
in the park, in the middle
of a hot afternoon
Your top was untied
And I thought how nice
It’d be to follow the sweat down your spine

You’re like my best friend
Aww after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love after a deep sleep
Where I was Dreamin’, I was Dreamin’
Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

Caught by a wave
my back to the ocean
it knocks me off my feet and
just as I find my footing
here you come again
Dreamgirl, aww Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

(Scat….trails off)

*Deep in, Deep in
Deep in, Deep in
Deep in


Hunger For The Great Light

Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love

Here you go, you dirty girl
Good God, try to love try to oh
God's love is alive inside you
You know who needs you

I wanna be your hunger
I wanna see you open wide
And then I could go down for you
I wanna blow your mind

It's my aim to kill you
My aim's to love you
You and I are such a pretty thing

Smile, smile, you know you thrill me
Cross your heart and hope to die
You know I'd love to

I wanna be your hunger
I wanna see you open wide
And when I go down for you
I wanna blow your mind

You and I oh oh
Shine, shine

Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love
Oh great light of love

You come like an answered prayer
Praise God, try to love try to oh
I have the little death delight
Oh I love you

I wanna be your hunger
I wanna see you open wide
And when I go down for you
I wanna blow your mind

You, you, hey you
You, you, ohh
You, you, ohh



Smooth Rider

Last night no way
I was gonna be left hungry
Then your dady caught me sneaking out your bed
It's just a game
I playIts just a roll that was
These things sweet baby,
Are messing with your head

I'm a smooth rider baby
You know I just keep moving on
Don't know why I like to carry on
The way i do
It's just that I'm in love with you

If you see me out there runnin'
And you hear the sheriffs comin'
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're runnin for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away

I'm a smooth rider baby
You know I just keep movin' on
Don't know why I like to carry on
The way I do
It's just that I'm in love with you

If you see me out there runnin'
And you hear the sheriffs comin'
Your daddy's crazy with that gun in his hand
If you know they're comin for me
And you know they're runnin for me
You know my love won't let them keep me away

I'm a smooth rider baby


love me some DMB...

strange dreams and ramblings

I dreamt last night that i met my boy. Firstly, we had st up a met but he bailed on me. This time it wasn't planned, more that i kinda ran into him.

See, i was just hanging around with some friends, and he had told me he was going to be with this chick. Well, in my travels i ran into this chick and asked where my man was, she had no clue or wasn't about to tell me. So, i started running around like a looney and finally found him. He was making some music video at my house!! haha

It was the strangest thing, but very cool *evil*

But what makes this dream even stranger...i woke up and thought "no pickles"

Yeah, really. WTF?

Thinking back on it now, i'm not sure if i actually woke up from the dream and thought it, or if it was somehow part of the dream. Odd...

headaches SUCK!!!

Had the current one since yesterday, mid morning. I ended up going to be early lastnight because it decided that my eyes should not like the light and would make it difficult for me to watch my fav. tv show...Ugh.

But, wouldn't you know it, i woke up with the damn thing. It's like hoovering behind my eyes and it's hurting like fuck to just look around and do my job effectively. Arg!!!

Kill me. Please!

Eyes sore, throat numb

i didn't sleep to well last night. and man did i have some fucked up dreams. There was a chick i knew really well once, and i thought she died after being flung from a carnival ride, but it ended up being two other girls lying in the grass all deformed and dead. She was safe.

Then there was a weird vampire guy, and something i can't really remember but i know it freaked me out.


...now i get to do grocery shopping...

It's a Boy!

7lbs, 4ozs, to an expectant mother..

It's great when the unexpected happens

I ordered a custom made ring for Curtis, and they said that it could take up to 3 weeks just to have the thing made, then shipping time on top of that.

Well, i checked my email today and they've already had it shipped. From Ireland, that is!

Personal answering services

Honestly, how high up in the corporate food chain do you have to be to have a message service for your phone. And i don't mean no automatic answering machine. I'm talking about a real life actual person answering the call with "Cary ****'s anserwing service what message would you like to leave?". I had to double take and i asked for the person i was calling, and she's like, this is so and so's answering service, would you like to leave a message?

I left a message, but it was one of the stranges things i've heard.

Oh, and another one for the day was a message on an answering maching where the guy referred to the phone as a dog and bone. Cracked me up. Almost forgot what i had to say in the message

still...

need to pee!!!

I should go. i mean i have to start work in 8 minutes. Not that it'll take me 8 mins to use the bathroom..yeah.

Oh, and my supe. isn't in today either, so no One On One's for me. which is good, but bad cause i worked my butt off to get my part done and ready for this morning. Oh well.

I get to do call backs today too. Excitement! Well, not really.


..Can't wait to see my baby!!!

i have to pee....

yes, you needed to know that.

5 months

Hell yeah. I needed something to keep me going today. And 5 months to the day (Tuesday that is..) I'll be sitting on a plane right now...an hour into my flight from Brisbane to Auckland...and more importantly on my way to Nashville!!

I'll have to count the weeks...22 weeks!! Hell yeah.


Work today has been HELL CRAZY busy. Calls coming in left, right and centre, waiting over 10/12 minutes...which rarely happens. Our service level is down to 40%...normally i think we average around 80-90%...ugh. too many calls. but at least i haven't had many pissed off people.

I'm so ready to go home and cuddle with my baby.

hehe

Which Sesame Street Muppet Are You?

http://powersugoi.net/quiz/ssm.php

i think i just nut in my pants...

Oh hell Yes! My new addiction, thrill, fascination, thing, what ever you wish to call it...i am in awe of marching bands....ofcourse only the top notch ones that are absolutely flawless...well, maybe.

it could just be my guy that i've always been in awe of...

I wanna be like "John Perkinson"

Thanks to Curtis, I've come across some of the most beautiful pictures i think i have ever seen. And whats more, these are the type of pictures that i've always dreamt about taking. Simplistic and overwhelmingly beautiful.

Callbacks is now a dirty word

If you didn't know, i work in a call centre for a member based shopping service. We try to get competitive prices on mainly electrical items and some other things. When we've placed an enquiry and we get the prices back from our suppliers, we call the member back to let them know what price we can get the particular item for.

Well, this process of calling members back sucks! Especially if you're the primary person and you have to do the emails, the sales, and organise the other callback staff on that day. Eek! Too much for me to remember and it's making my day drag ass.

At least i still get to look forward to the long weekend ahead. <

Pissed, frustrated, angry

So I've said this before, one of my housemates, Jacinta thinks i'm her personal alarm clock. Well, it happened again this morning. She went out last night for her boss's birthday, came home in the wee hours of the morning making all sorts of noise. This morning after 7am, i go in to wake her up and ask if she's going to work..she shrugs and rolls over. I think fine, and go about getting ready for work.

I turn the iron on, go back to my room, finish getting ready and come back out to iron my work shirt. Well, in that time, Jacinta had gone out to have a shower and turned the iron off. Arg! So i plug the damn thing back in, and start ironing my shirt...meanwhile, Jacinta is now in the shower and she starts cursing because i assume the hot water has run out. Frankly, she deserved it.

At the end of it all, i was just so pissed at her, i left to go to work 30 minutes earlier than i was planning because i didn't want to deal with that shit or her.

Great start to a friday. At least it's a long weekend and i have that to look forward to.

I'm sorry, who are you again?

My name is not Maryanne. How you possibly got Maryanne from Sue, i have no idea.

Yea, how about YOU speak up, so i can hear you too. Fuckwad! *farts*

[/vent]

Second looks

Since i've started my later shift this week, my lunch has been pushed back to 1-2pm. that's fine, except for one thing. There' s a girl that has lunch at the same time and she's always, i mean ALWAYS watching soapies in the break out room. Eek!!! I can't stand it, and to make it worse, she brings her lunch in and slups up noodles and spag...ugh, yuck! I can't stand that noise, much less any other noise people make when they're eating. *cringe*

However, now i feel bad for even thinking what i was about her, because she's like 5 months pregnant!! I had no clue. It's not exactly related, but i feel bad for thinking horrible thoughts about a pregnant woman...

Mud logs...

Oh, yum!!!

One of my co-workers is getting married on the weekend, so today we're having a sort of call centre hen's party. There's decorations everywhere, little sparkly things thrown over peoples desk...one such thing got stuck behind my keyboard in between to bits of joining wood...go figure. haha

And the girl in question, karina, is wearing this cute/pretty pink veil with her head set on. it's so cute/funny. hehe..i guess you might just have to see it.

In a non-related subject, i don't know what to say/do about something, or if i should even bother saying anything at all. *shrugs*

stupid credit cards!

Charge: AMERICAN NASHVILLE1741.80 USD Incl Conversion Fee 60.02
Actual charge in AUD: $2,368.57-

Fuckin' A!

And a bunch of other charges that decided not to go through for 4 days have left me overdrawn on my card by about $50. Arg!!! *violently pissed*

News: Camel suit, continued

http://abc.net.au/news/items/200504/1341643.htm?nsw

There's a pic of the head, and some news file at the bottom...

*shifty eyes*

I hate that feeling that everyone is watching and judging you. Makes me sick *cringe*

Camel suit, anyone?

For Curtis....

Handler punished for donning camel costume

SYDNEY (AP) — Qantas Airways on Friday suspended a baggage handler who was caught on video opening a passenger's bag which contained a camel costume, donning the head and wandering around the airport tarmac.

The costume's owner, David Cox, said he was waiting inside the terminal at Sydney Airport earlier this week when he glanced outside and saw the baggage handler wearing his camel head.

"I obviously was flabbergasted, my jaw dropped to the ground," Cox told the Australian Broadcasting radio on Friday.
He said he was shocked to realize that his luggage had been tampered with, and reported the incident to the airline.
Qantas Chief Executive Geoff Dixon said a security camera had recorded the baggage handler, whose name was not immediately available, opening the bag and trying on the camel head.

He said the baggage handler had been suspended and could be fired pending further investigation.
"We are acutely aware of heightened community concerns around security of baggage," Dixon said in a statement. "What has happened is completely unacceptable and is unacceptable to the vast majority of decent, hardworking Qantas employees."

decorations and slacking off

There's a pretty big rugby game that's played every year here, called the State of Origin. It's called that because there are only NSW & QLD teams in our rugby, and so it's like a match off between the two states.

Whichever state you first played for in your first team, you get a chance to represent them in these games. Ofcourse they only choose the best of the best...but that's no surprise...

So anyway, they decided that it'd be a good idea for everyone in the call centre to get in on this and decorate their desks/cubes...

The first game was a few weeks ago, and i didn't do much. a simple little sign above my desk. This time i wanted to go all out and put up streamers and signs, and balloons. So i finally got around to doing that today on my lunch break.

Let me just say, i think it looks crap! haha. but at least it's not all sitting on my desk like it has been for the past week.

In other news, i need to write to my buddy that moved down south. I haven't emailed her in weeks now and i'm such a slacker for it. I mean i could have done it now...but i'm writing here instead...Oops! It's our little secret.

Update: time off

One of my supes. let me know that there "shouldn't" be any problems with me taking the amount of time off that i requested in November. There is the time avail, but I may need to take 1 or two days as non-paid leave.

I honestly doubt it. She was just calculating it as a monthly thing...so we'll see.

Random

really, isn't it so cute??

why is it so hard to wait?

As you can tell, i've booked my flights and the countdown to my arrival in Nashville has begun. *yay*

However, i have to see if i get the "all clear" from work to say that i can actually get the time off. Arg! The days are free, and i'll have just enough time available to take it as paid leave when time comes around, but who knows what these freaks will say!

*fingers crossed* Lets hope that it's all good and i don't have to worry about this much longer. Besides, i have other things to worry about...


...like, "what am i going to wear???" Oh, right...nothing!

11/15/05 - 12/02/05

Dates of the invasion have been set.

lacky

I can be your lacky for a nominal fee. Just ask. I mean everyone else seems to think i do it for free!

My housemate sleeps in this morning. After i'm done getting ready, i go knock on her door to make sure she is awake. She's not. I wake her, tell her what time it is, then she has the balls to tell ME that i should wake her lazy ass if she's not up and walking around by 7am! Fucking whore. I'm NOT your personal alarm clock. Fuck you.

In other news, i went to ask my supervisor a simple question because my eyes were blind and couldn't see the answer in front of my face. I go to her, ask the question, she gives me that look that says, "i'm not going to tell you a damn thing because YOU SHOULD know this." So i say immediately, "You're not going to tell me, are you?" She says to me "It's written there"

I walk back to my desk right after saying something i'm sure it's good i can't remember. Sit down. Take a deep breath. Look over my training docs again, and see what i missed last time. Start crying, then take the member off hold while fighting back tears. I continue to set the member up and put his enquiry through whilst trying to type through the blurriness of my eyes.

I'm a mess. I'm not sure that i am needed, such as a contradiction that is to the above. Good thing it's unrelated...

My first Thanksgiving??

This should be interesting
