whats been happening

it was joe's birthday yesterday, but i havent seen him to give him pressies as he went away to sydney for work - due back tonight.

its been raining all day in melbourne, and all last night too. i'm glad i had the kits to keep me company when the wind was howling over the top of the strains of big brother.

not much news on dan in hossie. he's been put into an induced coma, and was due to be woken up yesterday but they have decided to give him an extra day. apparantly its not uncommon with head injuries, to reduce any swelling to the brain.

and its been another hectic week in work for me so far. my students are so technically advanced, they keep me on my toes with weird and wonderful questions, or tell me everything that they know and do that i have got very behind in timing.

we've tried craggle's idea of sticky-tape on the kitchen tops to stop the cats jumping up, and so far (fingers-crossed) it has been working. they dont like standing on sticky stuff. only problem was when our mate KP came over for dinner the other night, leaned over the kitchen workbench to make a phonecall, and got herself stuck to the kitchen sink.
