h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hey Tanz, how goes it? Haven't heard anything from you for a little while, and, well, I was beginning to get a little worried Wouldn't want anything happening to our universal mother.

Well, just stuffing around at the moment... story of my life really, isn't it?

Howdy Natai, how goes it?

Sorry I haven't been in touch lately...life is really weird and messy at the moment...between illness...family...and boys...I haven't had much of a chance to get near a computer....

...and when I do, everything seems to happen at once. People just don't seem to appreciate that I barely have enough brainpower to FUNCTION...let alone all this other stuff...

Anyways, things here are fine AND dandy...or something like it...I think...??

Ahh... lack of brainpower causing problems? I know that feeling. I think I am going to have a real b*****d of a night. I start work in 2 hours, and finish at midnight. That in itself isn't a problem. The problem is that I have a headache. I fear it is only going to get worse... Think I should go get some sleep for a bit... maybe that'll help me.

Anyways...

Natai

Headaches are no fun...toothaches...cramps...dislocated knees...they all hurt...but I become the biggest b*tch in the world when I have a headache...

...not that I'm not the biggest b*tch in the world as it is, of course...

I hope you feel better soon....

well Tanz, you often tell me that you are a b*tch, but I do not really believe you... after all, you have never been a b*tch to me... have you?

But headaches can make people really grumpy, I should know... I actually think that the headache may have been from a little problem I have had durin the past few days... I have been consuming just a little bit too much caffeine, and then that day I just didn't have any... perhaps I was sufferin from withdrawls. BTW quite a lot of caffeine means about 3-4 handfulls of chocolate covered coffee beans a day... that is a lot of coffee

mmm...chocolate coverd coffee beans...

And consider yourself lucky that you have not fallen victim to my b*tchiness...I'm generally a rational...and dare I say it...nice person...but when people push me...I can give better than I get ...

That is sounding like a challenge there, Tanzen Perhaps I should accept the challenge... see if I can push you just that little bit too far... would I do something like that?

I have a friend who said something like that to me once...that he'd never seen me mad, and would like to know what it looked like...and I told him that it's not something that anyone wants to see...

...and then one day he saw it...and he agreed that it wasn't anything that you'd want to see...and was infinitely glad that it wasn't direct at him...

ahh, but I like to live dangerously

There's living dangerously and living dangerously...but that's just taking the p*ss...

taking the p*ss is an old Australian tradition... I thought you'd have known that, Tanz

Hey, I'm a p*ss taker from way back...

...Anyway, what's been going on in Natailand??

I think I may have broken a rib or two... a little over a week ago at hockey I landed on the ball when I went for a slide. Still hurts if I breathe too deeply, or try to lift anything with my left side, or laugh... even walking hurts sometimes... sleeping on my side is not an option either.

Other than that, there hasn't been a great deal going on with me... been working a lot, which is both a good thing and a bad thing. Good thing: I have money. Bad thing: don't have the time to spend it

How about you?

Ouch...broken ribs...that's gotta blow, son !

And don't worry, you'll get time to spend the money...and before you know it you'll be wondering what you did with it all...that's the nature of money after all, isn't it?

Things have been really REALLY weird down here...I think (I THINK ) that things between myself & the redhead are officially over...I'm pretty worried about him...but I honestly believe it's for the best...

...and now a mate of mine (who I've known for years, and have gotten closer to over the last few months) has invited me over "for dinner"...which is cool...because I've been sweet on him for ages......but it's all so sudden...and let's not even mention the amazingly bad timing of it all...

...so yeah...If I was looking for a word to describe my life at the moment...I'll stick with "weird"...

atleast it beats the usual state of my life: F****D UP!

Dude, it's at least three different kinds of f**ked up, trust me...the nature in which the whole thing with "red" was called off...the nature in which my mate and I "hooked up"...and everything in between....very, very f**ked up...and I won't even know what's going on with either of them for a little while longer...

...I hate waiting...I'm not a patient person...and this is killing me...

ahh, but you must wait... horrible as it sounds... patience is very hard to come by.

You will be alright though, Tanz...

Hoping that everything works out for you

Natai

I'm not too worried about it...I know within myself that I've done as well by everybody else as I can...but I am still a little worried about red...but I suppose he'll call if he needs me...even if it's just to yell at me, right?

So, the philosophy for the time being is "Don't worry about things you can't control"...time will tell...la di da...

or just take the males philosophy in life and don't worry about anything .... ok well most males don't worry I think just a min I'll just look into Natai's brain and see if he worries... yes he worries
