My voice sounds good...deep and husky

But that'll end in a couple of days...
Oh well...

If we can send one man to the moon, why can't we send ALL of them?!

This weekend was not good.
After it, I have decided that men are terrible specimens and should be done away with.
They awful, really.
If you disagree with me, don't try give your views, because I am biased and will not listen.
All I wanted was some fun company this weekend.
That's all.
You would think that I had asked them to move a mountain the way they were trying to get away.
Well, Lance spent the whole of last week describing his prowess in the bedroom with this new girlfriend of his. Every day, regardless of the fact that I did NOT want to hear about it, he insisted on explaining EXACTLY where she'd left teeth marks.
Ok, ok - so he's in love - Ahhh sweet.
I just do NOT appreciate having photo's of him and his girlfriend in bed in their underwear mms'ed to me at insane hours of the night!!!
Who ever decided to put cameras on cellphones?! 
And Mark is ignoring me.
I know he is.
I texted him on Friday.
He did not reply.
His phone's on contract, so it's not that he was out of credit.
His phone IS working, coz I called him the next day on private number to check, and he answered.
He confuses me...
Some days he calls me just to see how I'm doing and when we see each other he hugs and cuddles me, and other days he ignores me and acts as though I've never meant anything to him.
Sod.
Cuan would have hung out with me this weekend, but he's moved to Durban to live with his boyfriend. That's a bit far to travel...
I miss him!
Peter spent Saturday in court.
Hmmmm...
That's not exactly my idea of having a fun time...
Even Brendan, this two-year-old kid I was baby-sitting yeaterday morning messed his nappy THREE times in ONE hour!!!
And I REALLY don't like changing smelly diapers like that! 
And Bruce is definately the king of all @$$holes!
Recently, every time I've seen him, he starts lecturing me about something or other. He's starting to sound more like my father than my friend!
It probably has something to do with the fact that he's been going out with Sarah and wants to start settling down now. Practising for when he has his own kids.
JUST DON"T PRACTISE ON ME DAMMIT!!!
So I thought I'd go over to Derrick's place...
That was fun while it lasted, but then he chased me out because I was "too distracting".
He was practicing for one of his hairdressing exams he's got this week and had long blonde wigs strewn all over his bedroom which he had done into different styles. After a while of watchiing him delicately snipping at the hair of the next helpless wig, I attempted some general conversation and was promptly informed that if I HAVE to stay and watch, could I rather keep quiet because I'm too distracting and he'd rather I leave so that he can concentrate.
Derrick, you earned jerk status with flying colours!
Last resort: Evan's house...
Parked on the pavement and called from my cellphone coz he has one heck of a long driveway and I wasn't in the mood to walk ALL the way up it only to find that he may not be there.
Anyway, he was at home, so I said I'd be up in two minutes...
But Oh no! He has a headache! AND a fever! AND he's throwing up!
Awww, Ev! That's terrible! I'll come look after you honey - rub your back; make you some tea...
No don't! He says. He'd rather not pass this bug on to me since I have to be at work on Monday and all... - What a sweet thoughtful guy!
And that's when I heard it over the phone. Not one, but TWO distinctly female giggles.
Go rot in hell, Evan.
Back home again, feeling hurt, angry, lonely, depressed, lost... So I turned to the one male object (all my possessions are female, but this is the exception - it is male because it is a b@$t@rd, but I love it ) that so faithfully is ALWAYS there for me whenever I feel like this.
I closed my bedroom door, took out my Swiss army knife, sat down in a corner with a roll of bandages, and him and I got on very well together...

Will be missing in action...
Posted May 26, 2005
Just to let you guys know...
The Royal Show is coming to Sleepy Hollow starting tomorrow and going through to next week Saturday...
So I won't be online during the day as I've been recruited to work there.
It'll be amazing, but I'm working helluva long days then, so I won't have much time for hootoo (if any time at all).
I will be available on email and cellphone.
So for those who have those details of mine, you can still reach me there...
If you don't have them and do want them (for some strange unknown reason...) get them from someone who does know...
Or to make life easier: [email protected]
Coz I'll only have time to check emails and my phone is always on.
Cheers buggers!
See ya in a while!

Lauda here: Tales of Doctor Doom and other nervous babble...
Posted May 26, 2005
Oh bugger...
Here's my day yesterday:
*wakes up in a nervous state and gets ready for work*
*ends up running really late due to lack of concentration on any sane thing*
*gets into car and swerves out driveway*
*decides I'm in no state to drive...*
MOM!!!
*finally arrives at work...still in nervous state*
*day passes v-e-r-y slowly*
16:00 PANIC!!!!
*frantically makes a phonecall that WILL cheer up...and it does...*
*immediately afterward feels like an idiot for waking someone else up just so I can babble nervously...*
16:30 In even less of a state to drive...but that's what mom's are for...
17:00 Arrives at Doctor Doom...
*panic...panic...panic...fear of doc's kicks in even more...BLOODY F*CKIN' PANIC!!!*
*passes out*
*hits floor hard 
*
*is woken up by Doctor Doom himself...AAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHH!!!!!!!*
*just over an hour and a half later, after having been made to run on treadmills, up and down stairs, pick up heavy objects from various angles, all while having electrodes strapped all over me...(they call it doing various kinds of ECG's - I'm not convinced)...having to strip for the doc (perverts that they are)... having m-o-r-e ultrasounds of my heart and lungs...other tests that freaked me out coz I didn't know what they were being done for....They let me out...*
So what is wrong then?
Well, from the initial tests done a couple of months ago, it was established that I have an abnormally slow heart beat that does not speed up. I have been told that this will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Oh well...
Now I have been told, that although my heart is abnormally slow, etc, it is otherwise fine. I do, however, have something known as "Muscular Skeletal some+other+long+scary+word+that+I+still+can't+remember Disorder". I called the doc today to try find out more about it, and he told me it is commonly known as "Straight Back Syndrome".
Bloody stupid name if I may say so.
It's kinda complicated to explain...and I don't exactly understand it myself...so if you're REALLY that interested in me you can follow this link and read about it: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=7267961&dopt=Abstract
It's only a short paragraph anyway - won't take you THAT long to read...
And this problem will be with me for the rest of my life too...
And I have to go for regular check-ups several times a year to make sure that it hasn't suddenly become a heart problem too...
Which is a good chance of happening...
And they are sending me in to the X-ray doc again coz they need x-rays of my cervical ribs and vertabrae...
Oh hell.

Lauda here: So what really did happen on Friday?
Posted May 21, 2005
You all know I was going to the cardiologist yesterday (Friday)...
So what DID actually happen?
Well, I got into a nerevous tizz about the whole thing.
I came off work early, unable to concentrate.
About an hour before my appointment...
My phone rang...
Doctor's secretary: "Well, Dr Letcher has been called out to another area for an emergency. We're rescheduling all this afternoon's appointments."
Me: " Did you know I took off work for this? Do you also know I have been waiting a bloody month and a half to get in here??!!!"
DS: "Oh...you're right...then we'll reschedule you for after hours next week..."
And so now I have to wait for Wednesday at 5pm before they try find out what the hell is wrong with me.
And go through all those nerves again.
And all the anxiety.
And all the stress.
And all the fear.
I hate doctors.
