OK, so today I got a call - early (about 10:20am - I'm on holidays!!) and it was a recruitment person calling about an application I put in... going for an interview tomorrow - hope it goes well and I can get the fuck out of the Institute. It's funny, this is the second morning in a row that I"ve been woken up by recruitment people, and I have to sound semi-normal for them, which is hard enough when they put you on the spot with questions, let alone when you're half asleep!

Also today got my hair cut - lovely and fresh feeling I am now!

And Sam is up in Noosa visiting his dad, and has left me alone on this scary, windy, creeking house night!

Going to have a shower and hit the sheets - have personal training at 6:00am tomorrow morning, followed by the usual first day back histeria, inlcuding an interview!!

May the force be with you! (Watched Star Wars 1 yesterday.... funny is Yoda!)

Hello world. Apologies for being so slack, but I hate to admit that I have still been busy at work, and now have FaceBook...

But I am making amends on the basis that this is my second last day of holidays - and there may be some poor souls waiting for the next episode of the daily dramas of Amber!

So, the past few months have been a whirlwind, here is what I remember of it:

Got couch - wow was that a while ago - it's beautiful!

Started personal training - best step ever, have seen results - but have eaten them back on for the holidays and with recent cold.

June 28 - 29 - The worst batch of work training EVER! Came back with hatrid for the place and never wanted to go back!

July 7 - Wayne and Alison's wedding in Ingham - awesome holiday where I was able to forget about the work woes for once!

August 2 - 3 - State Convention for work - a success!!

August 4 - 5 - Splendour in the Grass, Byron Bay - fantastic festival, lots to see, do and hear!

August 6 - present - Sick with cold, on holidays for the last week and a half - went up the coast, had a home cooked meal courtesy of my mum and played mini golf.

I'm sure that there is much more to report on that I am going to neglect, but not intentionally.

So, facebook has entered my life. And if you'd asked me as someone did a few weeks ago if I had facebook, I would (and did) say "what?". Then the following week to that conversation, Facebook was huge in the news, which even further made me want to stick to blogger like a crazy old lady sticks to her handbag. But then it happened, and it was a sudden uptake of my friends that did it - everyone who's anyone signed up! It was amazing - I'm in touch with old school mates, work mates, childhood friends along with the current friendship posse. It's great, and so easy to use - so I'm hooked. Every day almost three or four times a day I have checked to see if I have facebook mail, a new wall post - anything! And although I do need to post more to other people, so far I am enamoured with the website! I even have a pet!

So, although not the reason for three months of silence, facebook is partly to blame for not blogging over the past few weeks - but I, as always, will make more of an effort here in good ol' blog land. Especially after reading through some of my previous blogs and realising that although not a complete encyclopedia of my life during the past two and a half years, it certainly has the power to bring back fantastic - and sad memories!

That's all from me - but I will be back!
