I can't sleep and I'm having trouble breathing due to .. what I hope is not exactly turning into a cold; got a massively sore throat though and I figured, as I couldn't sleep, I will get up and muck around on here for a while. don't think i'll be at work today anyway so it doesn't matter about my temporary sleeping patterns. I just took a Panadole, so hope it kicks in soon.
i've not had a bad week really except for yesterday when I was stuck at work and my throat was turning to shite right then.
Wednesday night was full of "small worlds" and coincidences. -- first up, i was walking to SY station at about 6 and Teresa said hi to me, (the one who I just mentioned the other day in that survey that I'd lost touch with and would have loved to catch up with again.) She asked me what I was doing in the area, so upon telling her, I asked her the same question. turns out she lives there now and she grabbed my email address and we'll no doubt catch up soon, yeah! :)
I then went to sofias restaurant in camberwell for my second Phoenix event. I met up with the hoasts, who seemed lovely. and it turns out that Margaret works with R (family friend since before I was born) at Centerlink -- talk about small world! we couldn't get over it!
The place was lovely, but noisy. of course I'd been there before quite a few times, especially with young Milos during his time, as it was one of his favourites. but, I think since then, they've extended it, and/or bought out a shop next door. so yeh, it was absolutely packed and was extremely hard to hear! -- food was good though! -- Turned out John, who J and I have met before a few times, as he lives close to us and has always spoken to us, was there as a part of Phoenix too. At first, when he came to ask me if I wanted to share a cab home with him, I didnt realize he was from same group, but then afterwoods when he came to talk to me again, I realized and confirmed it! - woh!
Then the other John came up to me and exclaimed light-heartedly how pleased he was that I'd already been to two events in less than a week and that I listened to his suggestion!
Called J Tues night and all is going well.
man i'm sore and stuffed up. No talking on switchboards for me today me thinks!
til next time, RdFreak

I won the call bonus then the caller of the week which was a ten thousand dollar cruise. I never took the cruise though. I sold it and took the money!
