If I'd known how much trouble this meme would cause me, in terms of saving all the first (& sometimes 2nd - just for comprehension's sake) sentences of my first journal entries for every month this year, I wouldn't have bothered...

See how much influence a seldom seen friend in Adelaide can have on you... Thanks a lot SandyPaw!!



January: Nothing wrong with my willpower...

Spent the Eve at Darling Point with a couple of friends, then hit the Cross & at least 2 bars 'til about 4.30 this morning.


February: Oops... fell off the wagon officially tonight...

Having had the odd 'special occasion' "one drink & that's it" tipples - justifying them by calling them social occasions, tonight I had no such excuse... home alone, no special occasion, just ennui. And it won.


March: English Genius
You scored 93% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 88% Expert!


April: Busyness continues to eat away at my time, so that, even when I'm not busy, I'm too tired or drained to do much of anything else.

May: So, I got the job I went to the interview for on Tuesday... I get the angsty pleasure of resigning tomorrow morning.

June: So much for hiding underground.

It's been an expensive week. Given that my dreams of fiscal favour remained just that during the job change, I need to be pretty careful for a fortnight.


July: Feeling very post-big lunch & very pre-free dinner.

Had lunch with an erstwhile colleague in Gladesville this afternoon. Thinking about upgrading to dinner some time.


August: Another Monday, another recovery session from a fairly full weekend. Although, I did declare yesterday a ‘nothing’ day – where all invitations to go anywhere are declined & any movement at all is kept to a minimum…

September: The things that can happen quickly when you least expect them to...

Tuesday - spent the afternoon cruising the employment websites & sending off a barrage of applications online.


October: It is Monday, right??

The double effect of a long weekend & not having a working week to set the internal calendar by...


&

HEEELLLPPP!!!


November: Gemma & I had the first of our 'public rehearsals' last night at the Excelsior in front of about 8 people, most of whom were also performing.

December: Strangely Appropriate

Given the moods I've been in for the last couple of weeks.

A life out of balance indeed. I wonder if there's an obscure tribal word for feeling like a hollow shell too.

Bring on 2006, I say...

I suppose the only way to mitigate my apparent influence is to come and visit some time. You busy today? *hint* We are having carols by the dam. *hinthint* ;)

Just hop in the car and come on over.

Very tempting... If it wasn't for the perilous state of my employment, I'd put Sydney in the rear view mirror of OBlueV8 right now.

I'd get there by late Sunday evening, I think...
