December 2009
Today is worse than yesterday.
Today I miss him.
Dwight Prank.
Dwight: Where is my desk?
Jim: That is weird...
Dwight: This is not. funny. This is totally unprofessional!
Jim: Okay, well you're the one who lost the desk
Dwight: I didn't lose my desk
Jim: calm down, where was the last place you saw it?
Dwight: okay, who moved my desk?!
Jim: I think you should retrace your steps
Dwight: I am going to tell Michael and this entire office will be punished! *goes towards Michael's office door*
Jim: Colder..warmer..little warmer..warmer..warmer...warmer..colder..cold cold cold back up..warmer...red..red hot!..hot very hot *ends up in the toilet*
*Kevin flushes and comes out of a cubicle with a candle which he procedes to blow out*
Dwight: wash your hands Kevin
I love family gatherings. epic

Enhancement not replacement
Getting a new puppy doesn’t mean that I’ve forgotten Napoleon. It means that as a family we’re ready to accept a new soul into our lives, one who will not replace our dear Napes, but one who will enhance the memory of him, and make him feel more real to us. Hence the different sex and breed.
It’s not about replacement. it’s centred around enhancement.
The trouble with guilt
Ever get that huge guilty feeling where you know you should be doing something but you aren’t? and no matter where you go or what you do, it’s always there, hanging over your head like an ominous guillotine ready to snap any second?
It’s become more frequent these holidays as I struggle to grasp the concept of cutting down my relaxation time/family time/friend time in light of...
Improv Everywhere
I love these videos! the way people react in them is beyond hilarious!
the I love lunch vid is defs my favourite, but the other are equally impressive.
I wish I could experience something like this while I’m grocery shoppinf or doing some other equally boring activity. THAT WOULD MAKE MY DAY.
and it has! hahaha

Treasured Moments
The Christmas holidays have to be my ultimately favourite time of year. One of the reasons being that uber epical feeling of complete liberation from the chains of oppressive study (although this doesn’t apply completely these hols, unfortunately)
But it’s also because of the amazing sense of family that is achieved during Summer break.
Being Italian generally means that I have a...

Strange Occurances
I never watch overly freaky movies.
I never read scary tales at night (or during the day for that matter)
and I try my hardest to not encounter any horror related genres.
yet for the past two nights, I have infact been haunted. and I can’t work out whether it’s in reality or dreaming.
and that makes it all the more terrifying.
the first night, the scene from this half conscious...
All I Believe In - The Magic Numbers
I may never ever find an answer
I may never ever find the cure
I may never risk another lover
Oh, believe me
I may never ever walk on water
I may never ever walk away
I may never get the chance to tell you
Oh, believe me
Oh my heart, I want you to be strong
I need you to be all I believe in
Oh my heart, I want you to be strong
I need you to be all I believe in
I may never wait to...

Wayne Kerrigan: How's Mum?
Dale Kerrigan: Good.
Wayne Kerrigan: How's Dad?
Dale Kerrigan: Good.
Wayne Kerrigan: How's Trace?
Dale Kerrigan: Good.
Wayne Kerrigan: How are you?
Dale Kerrigan: Good.
Wayne Kerrigan: How's Steve?
Dale Kerrigan: He's all right.
Wayne Kerrigan: Good.
Dale Kerrigan: [voice-over] We could just chat for hours.
Bonding
Last night was awesome. Me and my brother had one of those bonding sessions.
we went to Harvey Norman to print our all our beloved memories over the 8 years we had Napeleon for.
It was really fun (:
hahaha and when we were leaving matt signals for us to go a different way..a supposed “short cut”. and then we ended up stranded on the top level car park, I almost died laughing.

The Unwanted Silence
it’s usually not this silent. but when you’re home alone, I guess that’s what is expected.
But it’s strange not hearing Napoleon’s collar trail along the tiles. or the sound of him climbing through the screen door.
Silence is nice but…right now I don’t want it
It has also come to my attention that I am in desperate DESPERATE need of my itunes. MUST...

Today I lost him.8 years of love removed in just 8 days.
The one word in my mind right now is surreal.
I still expect to walk downstairs and see a white ball of fluff wagging with excitement, rolling over for a well deserved rub on the tummy.
8 days of watching him slowly die was the most painful experience of my life. It was more excruciating than if it was my pain....

Possibility
so it’s a pretty dreary morning, but apparently the clouds are supposed to clear. go figure.
I don’t know how I’ve survived these last few weeks without my ipod. no music is torture. ever since the trojan ate my itunes, I’ve been devoid of my favourite songs to make me smile and dance around like a raving fool. But no fear, I’ll reinstall next week some time.
and...

Michael: How long have you known about the pregnancy? A week? A month? A year?
Jim: Michael, we only told our parents last week.
Michael: Did you pee on a stick?
Jim: I did. It was inconclusive.
Michael: You should've told me.
Pam: You're right. We should have realized that you are an equal part in this.
