Happy New Year.
I spent this weekend in bed (with Vegemite taking care of me!) since friday I found out the cause of all my troubles... wasn't my appendix but a tumor (probably benign) on my pancreas. Sucks. They did however give me free drugs, and that does not suck.

So a month of being sick.. bacterial and viral infections suck big time, and they stop me from doing everything I love, including being here and updating and writing in people's journals... but there is a bright spot on the horizon... the bacteria is dead, and the virus is being handled with anti virals... so no more bitching... Thanksgiving was great, thanks to vegemite...

2 weeks and another decade gone, so close to middle age, sigh.... without further ado, my ten greatest regrets/negatives (with a followup next week) of the last ten years:

10) a broken ankle - which ended my run for a black belt in TaeKwonDo
9) left a good job, with an amazing future
8) was made redundant
7) had to leave a company that I...

3 plus weeks till my big birthday... who's coming to celebrate it with me and vegemite?

15 days of work in a row makes me feel like Christian Bale in The Machinist... so tired... but two moves and working in Paul Booth's shop is pretty awesome! Plus I did get my outline from him.... I will take a pic...

I think I need to sleep.....
