Reaching for Clear Skies

I was taking a trip to the toilet whilst in the middle of work today. I was walking down the corridor to the set of cleanest toilets in Inala (its not that clean...). Its a small corridor that can fit about 3 and a half of me. Ie, it can fit at least 2 average sized person easily. But the thing is, this "over-sized" lady decided to be a dick. Don't get me wrong, I don't care if someone is fat, or larger than average, I really don't. It doesn't matter if you're super big or super skinny, if you're an asshole, you're an asshole. If you smell like a piece of cat poop that was eaten and mixed with a fur ball that was JUST regurgitated, then you smell like shit, no matter how much body fat percentage you have...

Anywho, I was walking down the corridor as she was coming towards my direction. Its common sense to slowly shift to the side when you see someone approach from the opposite direction. But no.... HELL FUCKING NO SHE SAID (she didn't really say that lol). As I got closer to her, I did the slow shift to the left that is pretty much a custom in Australia. But as I got closer and closer, she didn't fucking budge, so I loved even more to the side. To the point where I was pretty much boob, face and vag-ing the wall. Then... the moment happen when we are meant to casually pass each other. 

Oh, she didn't just pass me, because this lady, decided not to move a single inch to any side... and BANG. She just walked straight into me, EVEN WHEN I WAS HUGGING THE FUCKING WALL. I bounced off her flesh and my forehead and boob (especially my forehead) rebounded to said hello to the wall =) 

This giant of a lady (both height and weight), just smashed this child of a critter into a wall. The Samoan lady that was walking a metre behind her looked at me in shock as I stood there holding my head, trying to fathom wtf just happened to me... The bloody lady didn't even look back, even with the tongk sound that my head made as it kissed the wall. 

I could have sworn that I made eye contact with the lady before the collision...

I came back and told my dad at the restaurant... he just shook his head and chuckled 

I just got myself a birdy fwiend.


She is a little teenage cockatiel that I bought off a man who could no longer have her because his residence had a no pets policy. He did a REALLY good job raising this little one. Her name is Pepper, I feel like changing her name, but I'm not quite sure what to call her. She is definitely a little cutie, Denne warmed up to her REALLY fast. To be honest, I wanted to get a male that was white and pied, but the second I met this little girl, I was absolutely in love.

Before stopping at the man's place, which was on the other side of the city, we when to petstock. There is a Petstock at Oxley, just a few minutes drive away, however it was closed due to the extreme weather. Luckily, the Indooroopilly Petstock was open. I bought a huge cage because I wanted to make sure that if I were to get another bird, there would still be plenty of space for the both of them. I wanted the little one to have as much space as possible, considering she will be staying in the when I'm not around. Don't want her to be bored and restricted.


Yeah... you can see how big that cage is. I made sure to do some research about what types of cages were good for a small bird and the type of toys I should get her. The cage could fit 3 or so small birds, has well spaced and sturdy bars and a tray at the bottom for easy cleaning. Everything else about it is quite standard. Also bought a rope swing, a straw nest, a ladder made of rope and natural wood, some hanging honey seed treats and a small hanging perch. I got a $10 discount for a missing bolt at the bottom that they replaced (no, I didn't ask for it) and $9 discount from my points on my loyalty card. Pretty solid. There are still things that I'd like to get her. More toys! To make sure she is entertained when I'm gone. I absolutely love Petstock. The most friendly and animal friendly pet shop. Whenever you enter the store, there is ALWAYS someone who is ABSOLUTELY in love with animals. They are always enthusiastic and I LOVE their energy. It's also so nice to have their little pets around so you can play with. It makes me feel a lot more at home and a lot less awkward. Lovely people. Been to 3/4 different petstock places, and never have I had an experience that is less than amazing.

I'm looking forward to getting a table top play gym. This one in particular from petbarn.


Ps. Denne, I love you.

Valentines day. A day people just love to hate. Couples try to outdo each other, just so they can post it on facebook and prove that they are better than others. It seems as though the day turned into either a world wide competition or a hate/sulk fest for those who are not in a relationship. I got to admit, initially, I also wanted to be blown away by my significant other. I was so endorsed in the superficial image of Valentines day that I forgot the actual purpose of the day. The way I see it, valentines day is like taking a mana pot. Whilst you are build to be able to sustain yourself, after a period of combat, your mana bar will eventually deplete. Before you completely run  out of mana and become completely useless (which obviously means game over, or in this case, relationship over), you can use valentines day as something to give you a boost to keep going. That was probably a shit analogy, but fuck it =D. 

I feel as though valentines day is a day where you can both remind each other of why you're both in the relationship to begin with. It's a day to treat her like your queens and him like your king. It's a day to set aside whatever problems you have in your relationship to the side and start to show how much you love each, despite all the ups and downs. It's a day to look past the flaws that have unveiled itself over time, and begin to love each other unconditionally once again. With weight lifted off your shoulders, even for just a day, it makes things a lot easier (that is if you use the day properly). Tension, if there is any, is lifted, so that you can actually appreciate them for who they are and what they do, rather than being so occupied with what they are not doing. It doesn't just have to be valentines day, do it whenever the hell you want. The date doesn't matter, what matters is that you don't stop appreciating them for who they are, and that you understand that everyone will have either flaws, even you yourself. Just be sure that you are blessed to be with the person you love.

I wrote this on the night of Valentines day and I forgot to post it (oops) =3

Somewhere near the end of last year , I decided that I'd actively purse a good relationship with my dad. That would mean that I'd have to put a lot of my values and a lot of viewpoints/stands behind me because my dad is a man of a completely different age. I had to bite my tongue many times when my dad would make racist and/or sexist remarks. Recently, he made an uncalled for comment about gays which really pushed my buttons. After about two months, I've decided that that isn't a thing that I want to achieve. I feel as though it's impossible to have a relationship with my dad. I don't want to have to deal with his random outbursts and lectures. I don't want to try and be friendly, just to have him misunderstand me, get angry, yell, lecture, then reject me when I'm trying to tell him that it's a misunderstanding. When I ask why he reacts so negatively something that I saw as a small and harmless joke, rather than explaining, he just says, "there is no point of explaining anything, you won't listen anyways and you will only believe what you will believe," even though he is doing exactly as he says to me. 

I really don't want to have to always deal with these backlashes. Even when I try and understand things, he will stick with whatever it is that he think is correct. So to compromise to his way of thinking, I will not try and be close and friendly with my father. All I will do is keep the relationship at a neutral position, making sure it doesn't become a bad relationship again, and just leave it at that. Maybe with will easy his mind better.

Hope things become better in the long run. 

Sometimes I genuinely HATE being a chick. I hate having to deal with, the stupid, absentminded doucheyness from guys. Whether the things you do or say is absentminded or not, whether you though about it or not, it still fucking hurts. Just because you didn't think about the repercussions of your actions, doesn't mean there isn't any. Especially because it isn't something that negatively effects you, doesn't mean that its completely fine. 

It's not like we don't try and be considerate towards it because we know you don't mean no harm from it what so ever. We do. But ITS FUCKING HARD! It's like being bitten by a tiny little Boa in the neck, and not reacting to it even though (initially) there is a sharp pain. We can do Steve Irwin's here and there, but there is a bloody limit. Give your lady some slack. Appreciate the living fuck out of her for taking that shit. If she takes your stupid shenanigans all day, every day, then give her some fucking slack. It fucking sucks dick to have to deal with it. Gurghh.  Frustrated/10

Steve Irwin reference, incase I forget one day.

Isn't that a beauty. It's so slick that I just want to grab one. Only problem, its $1250 without a plan, and $87/month for 2 years with a plan. Insanely ball breaking hahas. Still, not bad to dream right? (Cough)

I hate roaches... They are bloody disgusting. I just saw one while taking a late night pee. I really don't want to deal with them, yet i don't want that fucker to go into my room... So I just got a big, old honey tub and placed it on top of him while he was running away from me. I don't want to touch it.. so I just wrote a sticky note to dad saying, "It is a roach!" and stuck it on the tub. Good Luck with that dad (Y).
