oh and I'd just like to say that timezones officially suck! :)

I just called the national ACB office and heard the menu over twice (as I kinda just wanted to be clear on my options and hear that lovely Washington accent :) and I found that the general enquiries thing was closed and then I discovered it was like 6 their time, so it means that I will have to wait til tuesday and make sure i wake up very very early! maybe 5 or 6? that sucks badly! I could have got them to call me back but didn't know whether they wanted to call aus so I will call em back!
so yeah that's cool! and BigBrother is really really bitchy and I honestly can't believe it's only a few weeks in and they're like this already! Lol Tim acted a little strange last night. I think it's like high school, where the rules are "what's not their's they can treat rough. like he purposely slammed the bike down! but really all I can say is that I am sooo glad that I am not in this year's BB. BigBro is being sooo harsh! is it, will it put me off for life? god only knows! Lol
In other news, Shipell Corbey (excuse spelling) was freakin well found guilty yesterday with 20 years in a Bali prisson (note to self: never, ever, under any circumstances, go near that country! And need I remind you young Miss RdFreak that the United States of America has the death penalty?) .. ahem .. think my moral of that story is that I will wrap my case in plastic which, i am told can me bought for 6 bucks at the airport. if memory serves it was infact [livejournal.com profile] fadge that told me that! hmmm
anyway Shipell is sooo not guilty, yet she gets to spend at least four years (if she doesn't get parole) in a jail that is iluded to be a lot worse than ours. a few to a cell, whole in the ground for toilet, food (that she refuses to eat) it's not fair! and all because she *didn't smuggle drugs into her own case and was therefore more than happy to show security her belongings! so, there went the "holiday" ahem ..
I am going out with YBCV to Vision Australia for their little talk on blindy travel which is kinda appropriate! People are giving their experiences.
I am hungry, i just got new email and an msn message so I'll be off.
tatita
Til Next time, RdFreak

how do you know Corby was innocent? I don't know whether she was innocent or guilty because I wasn't there when she packed her bags, I wasnt' there the baggage handlers handled her bags. I wasn't there in the court room listening to the evidence. So I know I can't judge.

Thanks. I never said she wasn't innocent. I just don't think the way the media portrays things is always neccessaryly true. They have a way of slanting things to their advantage.

ahh, sorry for all the comments, Rachel!

what i actually come here to say was.....
to get eastern time [thats ohio... NY...] you take OUR current time, minus TWO hours and switch the AM/PM [well, that also depends on the time of day, right now, its 12pm here, so its NOT going to be 10 am there ;)]
so, right now, in ohio its 10pm

to get CA, pacific time, minus 5 hours, its 7pm there, now.
