Ghosty Ghost Posted February 24, 2010 Author Share Posted February 24, 2010 Ooh I am a wee bit stoned. It's nice. I get more thirsty than hungry when I'm high which is good. I'vce drunk 3 litres of water tonight. Lol, I went through a phase of buying grape fanta before getting high, man it was the best thing ever.

_Ed_ Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 That's awesome of you, thanks. It's no trouble, though! You've always done the same for me on my lengthy visits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lensip max Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Lol, I went through a phase of buying grape fanta before getting high, man it was the best thing ever.I'm going to try that sometime I've all of a sudden become really thirsty generally. I'm getting through 3-5 L of water a day. And swimming every other day, because my cousin has keys to the local pool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Ed_ Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I can see through your attempts to thinly veil your virulence! Yes, the fact that you admitted it made it easier.

_Ed_ Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Haha, the Australian cricket team is in awesome form in their media comments. Coach - "to be honest, we haven't had a huge amount of sex- uh, success." Captain - "we'll have a good look at the footage of bondage- uh, Bondy."

_Ed_ Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Went for a walk on my break just then and encountered a sign for <name I've forgotten> Outdoor Company. I thought Outdoor Company sounded a bit weird. Like they specialise in sitting next to lonely people on park benches or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Did you know that the outside bit of a jellyfish is called an exumbrella? I didn't. I was looking through the dictionary at work for another word, and that name caught my eye. Thought it might have been a word made up simply for umbrellas that have been through a rough time in the wind. But no. Wow, I've made a few too many posts in a row here. My sincere apologies.

JoBear Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 at my work if someone asks what a word means, my workmate goes to her physical dictionary while i go to the online dictionary. someone wants the yellow or whitepages, i go online, she picks up the big book. such different worlds we've grown up in.

_Ed_ Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Fuck, that's the scariest thing I've seen in some time. No disrespect to your mum. It's very well-made! It just scares the bejesus out of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoBear Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 its just horrible, it's been in a box for ages and it just seemed to reappear again since the move! my mum gets a bit upset that we hate it so much but ugh... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugEBjP-Mk-s my mum yelled at me for not having it in my room, she told me to put it in the cupboard but it's the sort of thing you know is there and you're scared in the middle of the night it'll open the door and peep out at you.

_Ed_ Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I don't get this whole name suppression thing. Celebrities, Olympians and that guy in Manawatu, who were found guilty or admitted committing the offences, get permanent name suppression, while Sue Bradford's son, who was acquitted, gets his name all over the media. Sue Bradford's not even in the public eye any more. I don't think it's fair. And he was acquitted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Ugh, what a stressful week. No reply from my supervisor til yesterday and my rabbit had surgery. In short, he had an abcess full of thick pus in his front paw and the best chance of surviving was to get surgery which has risks itself for a small and old animal. But the surgery went well and he seems fine at the moment so hopefully the antibiotics clears it all up! Unless as a photographer for natgeo because THAT WOULD WIN SO HARD MY BRAIN WOULD IMPLODE. Agreed and beyond! Getting paid while traveling the world and seeing some of the most rarest and spectacular sites would be just I wonder if going there for a week for "research purposes" might be justified. Yes!

I'm really glad to hear the surgery went well, and I hope he makes a speedy recovery. What did your supervisor say? Thanks! She said that another student had been working on hihi and it was quite difficult, he had to even abseil up the trees! But, there may be some work to follow up on pateke which another student is just finishing and she will e-mail the head of the kokako recovery group to see if they have any research questions to look at. And she has got me a desk to work at, so I should probably start going to uni on Monday. A couple of my friends start uni next week, but they have both transferred from Massey to Auckland Uni, one doing postgrad and the other starting a BA after finishing BSc.
