The recent happs.... in date order

July 2012 SUMMARY:  Had issues with both cars... Whitelitening causing dramas with its idling and even ran out of petrol due to excessive idling speed causing excessive fuel consumption.  Wild Willy is off the road due to major WOF fail... looks like quite a while before this will be back on da road... like a year at least... THING 6 has also given its fair share of grief but despite this ive hit new records in terms of weight... just the other day reached 89.1kgs... yet another record in what has been a very very heavy year for me in terms of bodyweight.  As August is just around the corner the old "i need the fat for warmth" excuse is starting to lose its spark.  Weatherwise July was as youd expect from July... cold.  Nothing majorly bad but several days of very cold morning followed by several days of very warm mornings and muggy at that. Jess has moved back into the retard house... my place haha and it looks like its the 4 of us in the meantime.  As i leave July im faced with quite a bit of work and stuff to do... both with me, the house, the kitesurfing etc etc.  Also recieved word that i could be doing 3 OEs in the next couple of years... will elaborate more on that in the next few posts but needless to say its gonna be interesting... and expensive... hence the need to prepare now.

August 18th 2012: Snowed under with all the breakages atm... issues with the car, the house, everything is FUCKED.  Whilst the car problems are a hassle its the house problems which are starting to really take control.  A few weeks ago the lights went out... fuse was obliterated, so much that fitting a new one is just gonna result in the same shit happening again... sparks flying all that sorta jazz... maybe even a fire.  But now the power is getting out of control... even we aint using anything the leakage is resulting in 1kw being drawn... this equates to allmost 800kwh being used every month... thats over $200!!  obviously im concerned about this and whilst turning off the power and water heating immediately halts the problem... it isnt the solution and we still need power for the fridge, alarm clock etc (i need it to wake me up for work). I bought a 1000 watt inverter which plugs into a car battery which of course would solved the problem as i could live free of the grid then.... but there is a problem... my flatmates... as with all lazy slobs they expect the 5 star living without paying for it... cos ive had a bad upbringing (by society... NOT by my parents as they were awesome) im used to roughing it... remember i went without running hot water for two years as well as having no washing machine... 1 year i was without either of those luxuries (some ppl refer to them as necessities LOL).  Turfing them out would be too easy... and to be honest even with paying the huge powerbill etc im still making money by having them here... but its not as much as i would like... remember i am making secrifices to have them here... i have lost my privacy and the use of that front room... not to mention my standing with the neighbours... ALL of them.  The dramas with the three households all started when i got ppl in.  Even the dramas with the back neighbours was caused by me havinh junk in my yard which was caused by not enuf room in my house or the shed.  Cos of this ive decided to get a proposition going... they pull their weight, ill pull mine.  They get my house clean... its mostly their shit thats in the lounge... the minute they do that ill get someone to come in and fix the fault with the power/lights... BUT it doesnt edn there... the day of reckoning will be the 21st of December... the day that allegedly everything goes down the gurgler.. whilst i dont believe that for one second i will use that date as a catalyst for certain events taking place... simply put if i get the power fixed then they have until dec 21st to BOTH get fulltime work or they are GONE.  I am doing this for THEM.... NOT for me.  IN return they can at least get off their asses and find some employment.... if they do so then i will reward them by fixing the three other noncriticial but annoying problems... the TV, the fridge and the TOILET.  Tuckeys fighting back... this all started the other day when he VIOLATED my no alcohol law... Aston doesnt drink but he brought in one of his drunk friends... and had the nerve to tell me that he was sober... as a result i have banned all ppl from coming to my house.  There are 4 options regarding the power problems.... either we go to auxillary power... very cheap but not without its fair share of issues... and no lights.  Secondly we can just have the hot water and power chewing away... this is prob gonna happen anyway until they get things cleaned up.  The power bill will be huge... but ill be dividing it up amoungst us!... each paying the same amount.  The third option is as outlined above... we live like civilised human beings.... but we will be behaving like it too and will all be working.  And if they dont like those options then there is the forth option which is moving out. OK thats my rant about the issues at home... and NOW doesnt that make it more tempting to go on a HOLIDAY... well firstly i do have leave owing me the minute my anniversary rolls along... end of August i think.  Hoping to have a week off in September... similar to last year.  BUT thats not all... as mentioned before i plan on going on THREE overseas trips.  The first trip will be a cruise around the pacific... the second a trip with Eva to the Philippines... the third a trip to AMERICA to see wrestlemania XXX.  I will not be kitesurfing at all on these trips and i will NOT be going alone either.  There is a chance that the first and second trips may be merged into one supertrip... 3 weeks in Philippines plus 10 days ship time... = just over a month... longer than in 2011 when i stayed in Brisbane.  August 28th 2012: The dude is coming in today to hopefully fix the power.  Jess, Brayden and Emma have done an outstanding job at cleaning the lounge etc... Aston was another story... after me cracking a joke that he shouldnt be eating my food if he doesnt do any work he was none too happy bout it.  Which of course makes me wonder if its bout time to revert back to living by myself again... two things will change my mind though... kittens and jobs.  If both of those things occur then they can stay... if neither occur then they have to leave... if one or the other occurs then i guess things could go either way... but highly likely that ill let them stay.  Recently a perfect storm occured with three matters forcing me to shake off the shackles of the last 4 years... a big weight problem, me getting dissillusioned with professional wrestling and of course me
getting dissillusioned with society in general has forced me to go bush... ie go BEACH.

Sep 1st 2012: Power is fixed, lights are on... yet to get the bill so no idea as to what its gonna cost.  However that good news has been tempered by the fact that white litening has failed its WOF.. which means biking to work for the next few days... but there mite be a silver lining in all this... my weight may go down? haha lets not hold our breath on that one. Angel is due to have kittens anytime now as well... this is GOOD news of course hehe.

AUGUST 2012 SUMMARY: Despite the huge increase in geoengineering this month i was able to get quite a bit of sun.. the August sunshine is deceptively strong imo... a great time to get some vit d as strengthening rays is easily absorbed by lilly white flesh... which by the end of the month was starting to have a browner tone to it.   My weight is still very high... i did plan to shed some kilos this month but no joy whatsoever and for the last two weeks i havent even been to the gym.  There has been some change though in other things... havent been hanging out with mates as much... instead deciding that staying home is the better option.  Didnt go to church either... instead planning to go twice in September.. once to C3 and once to Elim... ROL of course will be in October.

WINTER 2012: I was a heavy boy over the winter... never really dropping below 85kgs and even hitting a record 89.2!  Last nite tipped the scales at 86.2kgs.  Ive had success at equalling by best ever bench press weight of 82.5kgs and at the gym was in general going well... but heck what a mish doin so!  And anyway slacked off for the last 2 weeks... instead focussing on power training... which of course i havent actually started yet!  WEatherwise the winder was quite mild.  The only points are extreme temps in july and a wet august courtesy of heavy rain over several days.  Ive been very slow doing the mail too... and next month im back to pakuranga until the end of the year.  Not a huge season kitesurfing either... ive been a granny... staying at home when not working.

Sep 17th 2012: Well incase you are unaware our cat Angel is expecting kittens in the next few weeks... on toip of this we have alos bought two other kittens as well... allready paid for (yep thats right they were NOT free) and we can take them home when they are old enuough to fend for themselves (ie weened off mum).  My speed at doing the mail has been SHOCKING... the sorting has been good... im fast at that... but i so CANNOT deliver it fast enough... and its getting worse too... i used to be much faster than this.  Infact it was getting so bad that i have EVEN CONSIDERED going back to maccas... which would be an EXTREMELY drastic step to take... not mention a huge pay cut... even though shiftwork does suit me better. However before i head down this path (ill only do so if im unable to get fully back into kitesurfing due to my inability to deliver mail fast enuf) im gonna trial taking on more sorting work so i can avoid getting hit with too much delivering work (Pakurangas rules are different to Botany... and it does not suit me at all).
