When you get naked and hop in the shower and realised you forgot your phone.

Then you have to use your imagination :(

[AB]

When you rub your eyes and you have chili on your hands.... thats smarts.. Your turn.....? One of our earlier meet ups at murrindindi when Krisso came down with his ring burning level 49999 chilli.

He gave me a piece which I only nibbled a mouse chew size but all the juices went on my fingers and I rubbed my eyes.

Without a word of a lie, the pain was so intense it felt like someone had a cigarette lighter on my eye ball.

Leah had to flush it with milk whilst I sooked like a baby. Absolutely mad those chilli nutters!

When you drive to work because you're running late, then walk home, leave your car at work and take 4 hours to notice it's not in the driveway.

You have your car at the mechanics on Saturday then on Sunday you do some work 2 it yourself only to have it break down on the way to work on Monday morning and need the mechanic 2 look at it again...................

160bucks later :(

Maybe this should be in the angry thread!

You have a busy day,immediately after the 15 you have for lunch you're presenting to a big group. You bump into a coworker and chat the entire way into building and elevator ride up 9 floors stopping all stations, you both get out and head off to your respective meetings. You nail it and then as depart catch yourself in the mirror - yep garden teeth... You basically have a head of lettuce attached to your teeth! Thanks for the headsup coworker dude!

Don't you love it when you're checking the engine oil in the middle of winter, and you flex the dipstick onto the battery terminal, because you're really cold?

Sparks fly everywhere - apparently!! lol

I can't even put a genuine terminal cover over it because it doesn't fit properly. Must be something to do with the wiring for the winch.

Haha! Reminds me of the Priest on Monday at my grandmothers funeral. He obviously tucked into a sausage roll or something before the service and had tomato sauce on his nose. None of us bothered to tell him and he had it on there from start to finish. Even at the burial he still had it on there. Atleast it made light of a gloomy day...

When you have a noise - and over the course of many weeks you replace all fluids, uni joints, check everything, post a billion things, ask a million questions, spend hours on your back under the truck, cut, scrape, bruise and nearly break your hands, get so much dirt in your eyes everything now has a brown tinge because symptomaticly it's has to be a drivetrain issue....
And then last night the noise persists and eliminates drive train...
Fml....

...the wife has your car keys in her handbag and takes them to work. And you lock yourself out of the house coz you have no keys...

Yeh he got it pretty good, slipped on the floor and hit his head right on the corner of the wall. His lil sister was chasing him around when it happened... mind you she has already denied any memory / responsibility for this (she's only 3!)

Stitches? If so how many?

Ouch! Poor little bugger, all part of being a kid i guess. . .

[Bacho86]

Only the 3 stiches luckily. We were hoping they would just be able to 'glue it'll back together' but because of how deep the cut was, it required the stiches. So we'll be back in a weeks times to get them removed, which will be a blast!

[lucus30]

Least now he has a good story

[Hodge]

When you're looking for something and it is much much closer then you think... I'm very annoyed now.
Throughout Thursday and Friday I rang around looking for Delo 400 on this side of town and found none. Thursday and Friday I worked in Williamstown.
I just got told paisleypetroleum.com sells it and they were literally and I joke not. 500m! Yes 500m from where I was working at on THursday and Friday ... Very annoyed as I was gonna service the car this weekend. Oh well.

Just FYI people they sell it for $100 for a 20L drum. They're also on Gumtree. THey also sell other variations of Delo and other oils...

Huge difference but fark she's a rough ride now

[Winnie]

Yeah I was thinking about how much weight I've added to my car since I got it... Bloody heaps

[Bloodyaussie]

Dont you love it when you have a moment of clarity.......

Wife and I had a conversation this morning about all that is going on and realised we are nuts !!!!!

The first few weeks both our kids have started High school and primary school (the schools are miles apart) we are also trying to buy a house and get our house ready for sale... I am in the middle of a career change and am very stressed about it (I know I will be fine)... Margherita's work is in the middle of a take over from Honeywell and she has a meeting nearly every night.

Erica has so much extra stuff on including so much bloody tennis it is killing me as her game has gone backwards... she has scored really high in a test she did last year with music and scored 51 out of 60 and and qualifies for 50% off music fees ... she is studying the Violin.

I have to also fit in a 2 day course for my forklift licence and next Saturday is the auction for a house we really really want .....

Now I must get a move on and mow my lawns quickly so I can take Erica to the gun range for a junior program to see if she wants to shoot competition.

I almost pulled the pin on this but need a few hours of just zoning out and gives me a chance to talk to her on the way there.... then I have to study for my test next week.. blah.

Seems we go from doing stuff all to having so much on....... Ok I am just letting it all out... I think getting the auction out of the way will relieve a lot of the stress, win or lose.

Anyway "Onward and Upwards "

No way mate..... Im married to an Italian so it would be a quick pasta.... 10 min and a lovely tuna pasta.

I wont give up the tennis as she needs some exercise and it is all do-able but it just all happening at once right now.

It is helping light a fire under my butt to get this house sorted as I have no love or motivation to do stuff around here.

Have not touched the car in weeks and I think that is a good thing as it can get more than its quota of time spent.... after all its just a bloody car!!!!!!

OK.... quick shower and off to the gun range to zone out for a few hours.
