Frozen Weekends

from JoeUser Forums
Well Winter has finally arrived here in OZ.. I knw ive said that before but the past couple of days its been really cold and windy!

Its Saturday here.. the start of the first weekend for the past 2 years that I havent had my best mate around. Helped him move to the big smoke last weekend and he is enjoying his experience living up there. Im really happy for him but Im really gonna miss him. Guess it opens up the possibility for someone new to come into my life down here.

Apparently we got hit by a meteorite the other day.. I didnt feel anything and they cant find anything. The radars at Sydney airport even picked it up and the guy who saw it thought it was as big as a house. Funny that that very day before it happened there were 3 black military helicopters flying around the area. They were really loud too.

So what's happening this weekend? Well John my friend is coming to visit me in a couple of hours time. Will be good to see him and catch up from his visit from Europe. Im interested to see what happens there. Ill let you know.

Apart form that I dont have any plans. I might head upto Sydney .. thats if I could be bothered driving that far again. It's really windy outside.

I had the bizarest dreams again last night. Bloody Efavrenz. Wish it would just leave my subconscious alone! I been sleeping but when im waking up I dont feel like I have been asleep but on a huge adventure.. like I ve been working out. So doesnt make for a restful sleep.

Oh went to my mate leannes house last night. She was teaching me how to crochet!..what a chore! it was so funny. When it comes to things like that I definately am pure male. Even though a beanie would be nice about now :)

I'll knit you a beanie if you want.  I have a patternd for a really nice one that's red yellow orange and black stripes...kind of looks like a fire, and the design is called 'hothead', actually!

PB~I can't cook worth a damn~so don't feel bad. . Also, I'm not so handy when it comes to dusting, mopping, and washing dishes~but I totally love to go grocery shopping big time! I'm not sure why. But there's just something about making out a really good grocery list first, clipping out coupons, checking the newspaper to see what's on sale that I normally have to pay full price for, and then hotfooting it to the Safeway to make a killing! I mean, some of these cashiers are amazed by the amount of money I am able to save sometimes. As much as $40 dollars in one fell swoop! But I use the double coupons too. Plus I only buy stuff that's on sale. And I buy in bulk when I can (then I gotta somehow figure out how to carry everything home~a short four block walk to my door). Actually, it's kinda like going to a health club and working out~but it doesn't cost you anything. I have been known to carry as many as 12 of those small plastic bags (they're rather smallish indeed)  filled with groceries, and Diet Pepsi, and a gallon of milk back home. And you should see how big and strong and handsome I look now! Girls notice me (plus even a dude or two! .). So it's a fun and healthy experience for me every time. I don't know why so many dudes hate to grocery shop~I just think it is the coolest. Anyway, I like these slice of life articles you write a lot. Hope you write many more like this.

Don't start that or I'll join in....!


I knit hats (I call them umbilical card hats) for the preemies and new babies at the hospital, and I'd love to branch out and knit for big people.  I'm going to have to guess at what size bean you have..or I'll knit you 2 different sizes and send both of them and you can give the one that doesn't fit to someone else.  If I start today I can have them finished and in the mail on Monday or Tuesday, as long as you send me your address (my email is on my blog page).


Anyway, I'm going to go look at needles and yarn now.....


Love,


Dharma.

Well, I got the yarn together, and I'm starting on it this morning after I get done with my chores.  I'll let you know when it's done.

You'll have to email me with your address in order for me to send it tho....

PB~yeah, we just clip 'em out of the Sunday paper and stuff. It really adds up big time! Totally cool article dude. And the beanie sounds sweet. You should post a pic of you wearing it for JU to take a peek at. Plus Dharma can see what it will look like on you that way.


Cheers!

P.S. I did the article about homophobia. But I don't think it's what most folks thought it would be. I took a totally different approach this time around, etc.
