Gardening sucks..

Okay, so the flowers are nearly dead outside in their pots (thanks IGA for selling me dodgy plants.. yeah it's their fault not mine i didn't kill them.. serious!) but I bought more, and I'm keeping them inside for now just until they're ready to plant in my back yard.

Anyway, today I decided to go out and use my new $15 whipper snipper Bunnings Bargain.

I managed to kill it in under 5 minutes.

I rule!

In the 5 minutes it took me to kill my bargain snipper, I managed to lose the spring that makes the circle thing with the wire that cuts the bits and go bouncy bouncy, make the whole fucking bottom bit fall off and go skidding across the back yard, whack a couple of dozen weeds and clip my forehead with some flying shrapnel (I now have a nice big red welt on my forehead which EvilMe kissed better, but it's still sore).

I got my $15 dollars worth of backyard entertainment (heheh this thing is originally worth $90, I did pretty well).

And yes, I know that I've not updated all week and I've been slack. This would be because I've been working long shifts all week since just after the easter break. Starting at 10am and finishing at 8pm is not my fucking friend, let me tell you.

Which reminds me, I need to do my timesheet! Gah! (okay, I just opened the link for it, watch me forget to do it).

How many days has it been since I updated? 13? Yeah.. something like that.. hmm.. should I do a slideshow of 13 Daily Urbans for Jay? Yeah I probably should.. So here, my dear, is a fortnights of .. dum da daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Jay's
Daily (erp.. a fortnight's worth of daily's at least..)
Urbannnnnnnnnn!

The Emu Song

B and I were talking about RHCP songs and B says "I really like the Emu Song" and I had no idea what the hell she was talking about. I thought she might've been talking about the song "Walkabout" which mentions aboriginals and boomerangs and going on a walkabout but nothing about Emus.. and then I realised that Walkabout isn't on the greatest hits cd. So I asked her to play the song for me, and so she did. Track 2, Greatest hits. Suck My Kiss.

So you might be wondering wtf? They don't sing about emus in this song. Yeah well, they don't. Unless you're 8. And then the lyrics "What I got you gotta get it put it in you" get turned into "What I got you gotta give it to an emu" and now I can't sing this song without changing the lyrics to the emu lyrics. Far out. It's one of my favorite songs, and it's been ruined.. BY HILARITY!



You know what's funny? All these years I've had the absolute omg hots for Anthony Kiedis (the singer) and now I look back and I look at the band now and realise that OH MY FUCKING GOD BUT JOHN FRUSCIANTE IS FUCKING SEX ON LEGS. OKay I'll relax now. But he is. He's hot. Oh fuck.. I need to sit my ass in a bucket of ice cold water I think and cool my hormones down. That's where they are yeah? Somewhere in the pantal region.

Okay, anyway, time for Jay's Daily Urban (Oh yeah, I should ring her mum tomorrow and see how she's doing.. someone remind me.. oh and THANKS A FUCKING LOT for reminding me to upload the videos. You're all as friggen lazy as I am, smelly buggers. Oh and I forgot to blog yesterday, thanks.. i blame you all for the heat and the blog and the yeah okay I'll shutup now..

URBANNNNNNNNNNNNN

ps: the whole fucking time I was writing this blog, I had Emmah telling me to hurry up coz she needed to pee.

Tough luck I'm taking my time just to piss you off ner :D

I did see a Jay today..

.. Man, you know when you have a best friend, and they're hurt, and you wanna make them feel all better straight away and not let them be owie anymore? That's what I wanted today for Jay. I've never felt so fucking useless in my life, if I could halve her ow time or at least even just take one broken wrist away so she can do stuff for herself a little bit, then I would. So I sat there and rambled while Jay tried to not fall asleep due to massive amounts of painkillers that don't kill pain but put her to sleep. Poor Tobydogger is sad too, he knows Jay can't give him pats so he looks at her all sad like only a sad dog can look sad, and just kind of flops there looking sad and Tobyesque. I got to see pics of where she fell too - god I hope the idiots that put that stupid annexe down without fencing it off, get into the deepest pile of deep shit that ever was deep.

So I gave her the Labrador teddy, and the giant box of Rochers, and she seemed happy :D She couldn't open the card, and I said I'd leave it for her, and yes, she gave me shit about not giving her a christmas or birthday card last year and decorating them, so I think I've made up for it. I's a good friend I's am! :D

Anyways,. I'm lazy today and haven't uploaded my stuff from my phone, so I might just edit this post tomorrow with videos of the fun stuff I did see today - the F14's doing fly by's over the grand prix (and doing U Turns above my building at work yay!) and a really stupid license plate, OH and a really pretty decorated back of a van thing.. yeah. Okay remind me to update tomorrow with that stuff okay? coz you know i'll forget!

And now, for today's Jay's Daily Urban..

Jay's Home!

JayMum rang me just before to tell me that Jay did get home safe and sound and she's all okay. The meds the docs gave her are imaginary (ie: they don't work properly) but she sounds hilarious on the phone - she's losing her voice, and she sounds stoned. Yup. I had to laugh - the phone drama was the best. She can't hold a telephone, so she has to prop it up on her shoulder, it slid off her shoulder and the hilarity did ensue from there. I ended up getting off the phone as soon as they put me on speaker phone lol.

Anyway, I want to go to the grand prix. Everyone except me (and Jay of course..) is going. Janey has corporate tickets, Angie's going on Sunday too. Life sucks. My boyfriend doesn't understand formula one "What's the point of watching cars drive in circles?" GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH DUDE OMG SERIOUS. It's not just coz they're driving round in circles, it's the atmosphere. Watching it on TV holds nothing against actually being there. Plus, the F14's.. the planes that go zoom! man I even missed out on the Blackhawk display this year :( I tried to watch it from the rooftop at work but yeah, I couldn't see shit for peanuts. So sad. so very very sad.

Anyway, I'm going to go see Jay tomorrow after work (I think I already said that for today lol) but I am going tomorrow arvo - and I'll be taking her the Golden Lab Teddy we got her, and a giant box of fereros. She better share or I'll smack her!!

Anyway, here's today's Jay's Daily Urban:

Jay did have an Op

Oh hallo thar internet, Jay did have an operation on her wrists yesterday. Her mum tells me that she's doing fine, and that everything seems to have gone well. I'm just glad she told me the bit about the wires AFTER I'd finished eating dinner!

There are no pins, no plates, no rods.. just little wires, that apparently (somehow) will come out when she has the plaster removed from both of her wrists. Yeah see, I can't imagine how wires will just "come out" once the plaster is removed. There's gotta be something else.. i dunno.. pliers or something involved, doesn't there? Hahah I'm glad my dad doesn't know about it, he'd offer to remove the plaster with a circular saw and pull the wires out with his pliers. Oh man. Jay's already traumatised enough as it is, as IF she needs my father dearest traumatising her some more lol!

Oh, and the really really good news? They only plastered her wrists. Her fingers are loose and that means (yes, she asked the doctors, I have confirmation from her mum) that she might be back as early as next week!! Yay! Man we all thought it was gonna be like 8 weeks of no Jay on the internet, do you know how much that would've sucked?

My bird is even happy, he's whistling happy birdy songs while I type this, oh and he's laughing too! So he's super happy!! Everyone's happy that Jay's gonna be back online next week (fingers crossed!! Jay can even cross her fingers now too!) and the internet will return to normal!

I was gonna go visit her in the hospital, but JayMum told me that they're only allowing 2 (at first it was only 1!!) visitors in at a time, so after a quick discussion, we decided that I should go over after work on Saturday. She should be out of hospital tomorrow around midday, so that's always good.

I get to go annoy Jay! Yay!!

Oh hey, I just realised, if she's back next week, I don't have to blog everyday anymore! YAY!!

And now, presenting to you, Jay's Daily Urban:

100th Post!

Oer this is my 100th post for this edition of my blog. How cool is that? Okay so it's pretty sad, but hey c'mon - I started blogging um, 3 years ago? I dunno.. I've managed to kill 1 blog, completely forget about my MySpace page, sometimes update my LiveJournal (and even then, that place is identical to this one simply because I copy paste and am too lazy to come up with something different to post!

Anyway, enough about me, lets talk about plants.

I'm hopeless at plants - no seriously - I look at them and they wither and die. The only plants I am successful at growing, and that is without any supervision whatsoever, are plants that people already have planted for me, or weeds. I'm good at weeds (plural, not weed you idiots). Ask Jay - How pretty was my backyard when it got all done up 2 years ago, and how er.. not pretty is it now? Sometimes it's pretty, it's strange - it grows grass in winter, and weeds in summer - it's kind of like it's making a deal that it'll look pretty when it wants to, and then compromise with shit awful ugly weeds in the summertime. The only bonus about that is if i let the weeds grow big enough, and then run them over with the lawnmower (which I did last weekend) all of the weeds will die until next summer. Pretty good deal if you ask me. Weed killer does not work in my garden, I have mutant weeds.

Anyway, B and I planted some plants today - we bought 4 punnets of seedlings, and stuck them into 3 seperate pots - one of each seedling per pot (3 seedlings per punnet) and then B planted some seeds that BigPong decided we needed. Not that I remember what they're called lol. Oh and I also found some half dead er... Idunnos..I think that's their species name.. but they're still growable so I'll give it a burl - if they drop dead oh wells, they cost me $0.50c so who cares right?

Anyway, here's the potted plants and the 4 punnets with the BigPong seeds in them



and here are the labels for the original punnets



I can actually tell the difference between all 4 of the plants I bought - I specifically bought 4 plants that look pretty, but are all different looking, just so I can look intelligent when people ask me what they are.

These guys are going into a mini garden I've decided I'm going to create outside my kitchen window. It might encourage me to stand at the sink more often if I can see something other than well.. weeds and rocks lol. I figure my hands will automatically start washing dishes by association if I'm just standing there admiring the view.

Oh, I also have some um.. what're those plants that are really good for summertime coz they don't need to be watered often? (No, not weeds, get lost).. I also have some of them in my backyard, and I know that they're easy to plant - Take some pieces off the already established bits, put in ground. It does the rest. No seriously, that's how i managed to actually grow some of the plants in my backyard. My landlady gave me a shopping bag (we do things classily in the western suburbs here) full of offcuts of the squishy plants that grow by sticking them in the ground.. and that's exactly what I did. So now, it's time to move some of them over to the other bit.

Yeah, I need a hobby. I suck at everything I do most days lol but maybe, just maybe, I wont suck too much at this.

(Didn't I say that last time?)
For Jay:

Jay is MIA for a while..

My dear friend Jay - you might remember her as my "normal" friend, did go and do an ow and is now incapable of logging onto the internet. Sucks to be her. Actually, it DOES suck to be her. Poor Jay. She's gonna be MIA for at least 8 weeks, or until her wrists get better.

Basically, she had a nasty fall while she was away and both of her wrists are broken. She's okay, just, from what her mum tells me, she's rather sore and can't do much. So, I've made a promise to myself. I also told Lise, so Jay has someone else to blame when she comes back.

I'm going to blog every day while Jay's away just so she has something to read when she can log back on. She'll probably still be off work for a little while after her wrists are healed, so at least it'll keep her entertained, right?

She's gonna hate me forever you realise. But she knows I lubs her. Oh and, I'm also bringing back my IMJ sig - remember the good ol' IMJ I Miss Jay sig from all those years ago when she went away and left me and the internet all alone? Yeah, I'm bringing that back into play. Just til she logs back on. And then, I won't miss her anymore, so then I won't have to use it anymore.. at least til the next time she disappears!

Okay so basically - if you want to - leave Jay a get well soon(ish) message on any post from here on until you stop seeing the IMJ's at the end of my posts.

And now, that's the end of my first stupid post. Jay, come back and save the internet from my bullshit please, I don't think it's going to be able to cope. Argh!

I miss Jay all my other friends are weirdos. Yeah, even the people reading this (that includes you.. stop reading now k? OMG STOP! IF YOU DON'T STOP THEN I'LL HAVE TO KEEP TYPING AAAAAAAAAAARGH!! okay that's better you stopped readi... hey wtf? WHY ARE YOU READING AGAIN? gah!)

Here Jay, I got you a present!
