So I am realising, in looking at my fishing tackle box, that I have a RIDICULOUS amount of piercing jewellery, that I will never ever wear again. Either because I don't have that piercing anymore, or I've stretched past that size, or I've just picked something nicer.

I like and need monies. It's a waste having all this stuff. And I can clean it and autoclave it so it's totally safe to resell.

But where should I sell it online? I totally do not understand ebay or paypal. I have bank and credit card accounts, but... clueless.

Can anyone know me how to set them ups? I offer um... hugs? Shiny piece of jewellery of your choice that I don't want?

Australia Dept of Travel and Foreign Affairs website advises me:
"We strongly advise you not to travel to the areas of Peru bordering Colombia because of the risk of kidnapping by narcotics traffickers. We also advise you not to travel to areas bordering Ecuador, other than official border crossings, due to the presence of unexploded ordnance and landmines."
"On 26 July and 4 August 2009, armed gangs attacked a cruise ship containing several tourists, including Australians, while travelling along the Amazon River between Iquitos and Nauta."
"Peru is located in an active seismic region. In August 2007, an earthquake off the coast of Chincha, 161km south of Lima, killed more than 500 people."

I'll be staying in Iquitos. That's the city right next to the Colombian border. We'll be travelling to and from work in a boat on the Amazon.

AWESOME! I'm gonna get kidnapped by guerillas and turned into a drug mule. Boobs full of coke. Sweet.

Not panicked.

Ooops. (how many blog entries star that way?) I should not have counted my... chickens before they hatched? Job before I had it? Seems the cat haven is only looking to hire full time permanent staff. Which is understandable. I will not become homeless, however, my holiday pay from work really only covers rent and bills and fuel, I was going to use casual workies for throwing at credit card and savings for trip. Same thing really.

There's all those pesky expenses like hostel accomodation, taxi trips around airports, small plane flights, souvenir (?!) shopping, oh and those 3 million vaccinations I still need. Ok, 2 more rabies and 1 hepatitis plus a course of Doxycycline, cos malaria is so last decade. At least I have clothes and shoes covered, and parents are going to get me a big backpack for xmas.

So. Who wants their car washed? Or garden cleaned? Presents wrapped? I have a lot of experience wrapping presents from my days of being a smiling helpful girl guide. That's right, I used to wear a sash. And a saggy hat. And a skort.

Oh and who knows of anything fun to do in Buenos Aires? I have a like, 26 hour stopover.

Thinking of the cute puppies. Alllll the cute puppies. And maybe even monkeys.

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 03:03:36 GMT

I quit my job! Screw you, management that doesn't care to take care of it's staff. You're not worth it. I will miss (nearly) everyone tho :( I don't think I'll ever work with such an awesome group of kids. I have like 200 hours of special and holiday leave owing, so I'm fine.

I played with giant sea turtles! They buried me, pushed me down sand dunes, slapped me with their half a metre long flippers, and hissed. They were gorgeous, enormous, dinosaurs, and I hope that all their eggs hatch safely.

I'm *hopefully* going to Melbs to do some modelling work! And see Jess and Steph! Woooooot. Girls. Yay!

So starting Monday I shall be a partial lady of leisure. Going to try to pick up some casual shifts at a shelter, and get finally totally sorted out for Peru trip. And clean the house. And get some gardn shiz happening. And move my bike and get a lesson or two in. And go out dancing. And save the world.

The end. What's up with you kids?

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 08:26:52 GMT

dear life. i miss you. where did you go? sometime amongst the 70 hour weeks i've been pulling, you've faded away. i don't know who my friends are dating or where they live anymore. my money's syphoned into invisible sections of adobe documents, and my plane tickets haven't arrived. my phonebook is incorrect and my profile picture needs updating. clothes are out of season. someone turned the page when i wasn't looking and i think they skipped a whole chapter of observations.

at least my clothes are dry.

i hate money

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 08:21:14 GMT

waaaaaaaaaaaaah. everything i need costs money. for peru i need immunisations, hiking boots, to post some medical supplies, accomodation money while i'm not at the clinic, 2 plane tickets still, and spending money. for here i need a new motorbike battery, a few things fixing on my car, a couch, a fridge with a freezer, a new wireless router and possibly modem. oh and don't forget the 4 grand credit card debt that came from peru plane tickets and fixing the motorbike. and the 700 ish i still owe to my friend for it. and the 1400 i still owe my parents for the car i keep trying to crash.

raaaaaaaaaaaaaah. and everything i want costs money. i want my tongue resplit, 3 new piercings, some summer clothes (most of mine are covered in red dirt), some pot plants so my house is less hideous out the front, and some kitchen things like more muffin trays and a blender.

can't also forget that as soon as i return from peru i will need to (hopefully) enrol in uni and pay fees and buy books, and (definitely) pay for 3 x suzi q tattoo appts. hope i don't have any important classes on friday cos i'm going to have to skip 3 out of 6 of them for the first 6 weeks and i am SO NOT giving up appts i booked 13 months in advance.

grrr. i really want those people to call me back about that lovely cash cash cash work. i could blow away a lot of these things with that.

edit: entry now revised with much smaller and loading friendlier turtle image. tho less cute "i'm busy digging here bitch!" feel to this one.

Driving home today I came up with multiple effbook and twooter updateys. I realised I wanted to post them all. Then I remembered this historic piece of technology called... a livejournal!!! So here I am.

I have only just (bad janey) realised that my favourite lollies aren't vegan. This makes me very sad. So I am eating my last bag of roc candy. Stupid beeswax. I think the sugar free kind are beeswax free, but it has a warning about eating too many causing a laxative effect... and I can never eat only a few roc candies. So. Adieu! My dentist will thank me I'm sure.

Booked and paid for 1/3 of my Peru trip. Slightly terrified. Lucky I got that credit card recently eh?! Hopefully don't max it out within the first month of usage. Got travel insurance, which is good. Some lil stop overs in Sydney where I will harass people to come and entertain me, or possibly go out for dinner? And I have an almost 24 hour stop over in Buenos Aires on the way back. I arrive at like 3am and leave 2am the next day, so I'm tossing up two options: find a hotel at the airport I can check into, attempt to sleep, and then get back on another plane, or dump bags into a locker and take a daytrip into Buenos Aires. I also have extra days on either side of my actual volunteer work, where I can do what I want. If I manage to win lotto or magically save some more money, I'm thinking of looking up some internet kids and asking them to show me the sights. Got two beautiful friends in Venezuela I'd love to see, so if I can get some wonderful flight to them, maybe I can have some party times! I'll be there for New Years, so that will be exciting.

I'll be doing volunteer vet nursing work for 2 weeks with Amazon CARES. This is the kind of work that makes my heart leap, and I realise that it is the cause I am the most passionate about. I have to pursue it!

I've gone on lots of trips on my own before, but this will be the biggest! Everybody hope that the druglords from Colombia don't kidnap me. I'm insured for it at least. But seriously, I'll be living in a jungle hut not very far from the border. Must make self look as poor and/or gangsta as possible.

Also going up north again, near Broome, to do some big flatback turtle volunteer work with Conservation Volunteers Australia. Romy (nurse friend from work, super awesome) and I will be staying in a RESORT, complete with cocktail bar and pool overflowing into the ocean or something pretty like that. And at nights we'll be patrolling the beach counting nests and eggs and doing dna sampling of the turtles. Wheee!!!

Am happily retiring to hermitage for pretty much ever. I have 3 gigs left to go to this year; nofx, dempsey, lowfi, and no great urge to go to any others (small dnb dubstep etc things excepted), for the rest of the year. Unless No Doubt should decide to tour. I will probably get my soundwave ticket sometime soon. I am cutting down on the wkender chemical intake, and my body is happy for it. Looking at small houses/villas/flats to rent next year for imminent studenthood. Gulp.

Wanting to start growing tomatoes and capsicum in the backyard in large pots of volcanic rock.

Going to pick up newly fixed motorbike sometime soon, with the help of Mr Madd. With all the broken bits replaced, that pesky loud noise gone, and some shiny new tyres and brake pads, she should be happy with me. Helmet should be getting here soon and then I can book some lessons and be hooning around in no time. Her name was Lucille, but I'm thinking of changing it to Sofia.

Sooo.... what do you thinks?

Mon, 03 Aug 2009 05:43:58 GMT

Life is a bit crazy lately, which is nothing new... but I've been wishing I could say some things about it. I've been tossing up getting a new lj and not telling anyone I know, so I can just rant and rave and not offend anyone... but I do like getting comments and advice and interaction. So I guess I'll just try to be nice, and when I need to rant I'll be nice and vague and you can all just guess who I'm complaining about :)

New house is going pretty well, ironing out some random problems and faults and what the fuck is that smell, things. Haven't lived with this many people in a long time, but it's really only 2 of us that are ever home, and the house is so huge we only see each other occasionally. It's great to be so close to the boy's place, and to have enough space to spread my shit out a bit. Me being the anal female that I am, and being the one that actually uses the laundry kitchen front yard back yard... I do a lot. But that doesn't bother me too much, so long as people don't use my shit and then leave it lying around dirty.

Am slowly becoming more of a grown on her own person. I couldn't move back in with my parents even if I wanted to, because someone else lives in my rooms now. I can sleep there sometimes, but there is no room for my shit, and I definitely couldn't live there. Not having that safety net is weird! I'm buying a motorbike, and it will be registered in my name, which my car isn't even yet. Spooky. I applied for a credit card. I applied for uni. I sorted the internet for this house and it's all in my name. I'm attempting to do my tax online. I'm getting a new GP, near my actual house as opposed to the same lady who sewed my leg up when I was 7 and works near my parents. Except that she doesn't anymore, we found out that she has cancer and had to retire :( That is really sad, because she's a freaking awesome lady.

I am looking after another lil lost animal... strays hit by cars with munted legs seem to be my theme. Her name is Ewok, because when she came in at 4am nearly 3 weeks ago she was all wrapped up in a mattress protector by the lovely guy who found her, and her fur was all over the place and she looked just like an ewok. She has since had all her matts and prickles cut out, her face trimmed so she is a lil more like a chewbacca.. but she's still my lil ewok, miss moppet, 3 legged fur baby. Her pelvis is broken, she should have surgery but I don't have 6 grand for a stray dog, so she's with me on cage rest and pain relief and will hopefully heal up ok. She's hooning around happily on 3 legs and we will soon rexray her one leg and her pelvis to check how it's all going. She's so sweet, mostly very quiet except when I leave the room and she whinges a bit. She's much better behaved than Bart, altho not as good at following me everywhere, she is very timid.

Finally uploaded a lot, but not quite all, of my photos from my trip in may. Hit up my fbook for thems.

Well I suppose I should put on clothes and go do a few things before nightshift. Blaaaahhh. Boring.

If anyone can suggest a career that is interesting challenging but not stressful... that would be RAD.

URGENT: Cute kitty needs a home

Sat, 25 Apr 2009 08:24:16 GMT

Theresa is looking for a new home.

She is an approximately 6 month old small tabby and torti kitten. She came into our vet clinic as an injured stray found on the road, probably hit by a car, in a small cardboard box. Her tongue was stuck to her bottom teeth where she had probably bitten it on being hit by the car. Her left leg was unable to support weight and she was weak, though still very affectionate. With pain relief and lots of rest and good food, her tongue and leg are now fully recovered.

Now speyed, vaccinated (needs a booster in a month, already paid for), flea + worm treated, microchipped, she is ready for re-homing. She comes with a bag of kitten biscuits, some wet kitten food, a litter tray and litter, some toys, another 5 months of Revolution, and a collar. She is very affectionate and loves to be picked up and cuddled, to sit in the sunshine in the window, or to play with her mouse toy. She is talkative and would best be suited to an indoor life (she has zero road sense and wants to hunt birds). We are not sure how she gets along with other animals yet as she has not met any others close up.

If you think you'd like to adopt Theresa, please contact me on (oh four oh nine, four five nine, six four one). I go away for a month this sunday may 3rd, so even if someone could just look after her for a month, that would be great. Since there is a time limit I am not worrying about getting back the $ I have spent on her so far - so there is no adoption fee.

Photos can be found on my facebook album for her here or I can sms you some more.

Please feel free to pass on my number and details about this to anyone you know. She will alas be going to the Cat Haven if I can't find someone to take her before I leave. The Cat Haven is great, but they are full, so she won't have much of a chance.

my whole

Tue, 24 Feb 2009 18:49:16 GMT

so it's 3.22am at work and these overnight shifts seem to be the only time i take to read lj. but i'm not going to get myself into a knot about it, i just have rearranged priorities, and blogging is not the way i find out what my friends are up to anymore. i have noticed a similar shift with a lot of people. and i'm ok with it.

but i shall do an update anyway, because i haven't in ages and since i like sporadically reading about what my non irl friends are doing it's only fair to let them know about my activities too.

work - is busy, really busy. being a big emergency hospital we have a pretty high turnover of staff, and it's sad to see people leave. new staff are fun too but it just never feels the same. i love most of the people i work with, i've never had such a good workplace before, and it's probably because it's never boring and there are so many people it's hard to really get sick of people because you can go for weeks without seeing them despite you both being fulltimers. the last month has been uber stressful, tho it seems the tide may turn soon... i am updating my resume all the same.

love - happiest i've ever been with my awesome boy richard. stupidly ridiculously blissful. i do have my moments of my head being broken and trying to munt up the whole situation, but he is so rad that he doesn't even let it happen. he cooks me dinner and helps me do housey things like look after animals and even suggested that we watch all of buffy and angel because he's never seen it all. seriously, perfect for me! love him to bits. wish we were rich so we could move out together already.

family - my 16yo nephew is interested in vet nursing and thus is now working at my work as a kennel hand. alas he is not so good at the responsibility thing yet, and all the other kennel hands are girls who seem to fawn over him. but he will get his butt kicked into shape soon enough, or he'll run away and join the navy. am trying to help foster his musical tastes and turn him into less of annoying teenage boy, so that by the time he is 18 i can take him out to decent music events and be the coolest aunt ever. my parents have been babysittin my puppy for me sometimes which is awesome, and as close as they'll get to more grandchildren for a loooong time. in return i am babysittin the boys this wkend so they can go to nannup music festival with their friends. call the press, young daughter babysits nephews so parents can drive to a music and wine festival!

friends - smaller group of these, as is often the way when one is no longer single. i feel a bit bad about it, but it's the ebb and flow of things. it's so lovely having amir living so close :) and my housemate makes for fun times, and he puts up with bart so well. must buy him some awesome geek or stoner toy. tend to mostly hang with a few of richard's friends in the dnb crowd, who are all so sweet, singles and couples. i do miss a bunch of my friends, but my work roster doesn't make catching up at all easy :( want to have a party soon but since i only know my life about a week in advance it's rather hard to set a date!

other... thinking about going to uni next year to do wildlife and conservation biology, or maybe it's ecology.... 3 year degree at murdoch, bach. of science i think it is, would lead towards a job with wildlife such as DEC in wa, or other similar departments in other states or countries. could lead towards research or zoo work... anyway, would help me get towards more wildlife work and away from private practice. and richard is thinking about doing chiro at murdoch next year too, so we could find a tiny student apartment and be bohemian together on campus.

bali holiday in like... just over 2 weeks! perhaps i should book accomodation eh!!! flip. be nice to be not here. propaghandi concert ~~tmro~~ tonight, dreadlocks on thursday! heavyweight soundz friday, soundwave monday....

so mostly all things cruising along nicely. am getting towards accomplishing some of my 'goals' for this year which were - get private health insurance (done), get credit card account (in process of), pay off car and laptop (slowly happening), sort out overseas work (ok really need to start on that!).

so tell me of your happenings.

Will you love Bartleby?

Tue, 17 Feb 2009 15:13:57 GMT

This is Bart.

He is an approx 6 month old Kelpie X, now castrated, vaccinated and microchipped.

He was a stray dog hit by a car a month ago, who I adopted and looked after until all his wounds healed (you can see the scars forming in this picture, and the hair starting to grow back). He is now looking for a permanent home, as alas I don't have the space or time for such an active dog.

He has no further health problems, tho his left foreleg may always be a little weak because some of the tendons were literally scraped off on the road when he was hit. He is in need of some training, as he is a puppy! I am starting some one on one behaviour sessions soon and these can be continued if he finds a new home before they are finished. He is understandably quite afraid of moving cars, and is a bit of a sook and shy boy, but always improving. He already knew how to fetch when he came to us, and is learning how to sit, although he is fairly excitable and easily distracted. He now has his own collar and tag, harness and lead, food bowls and mat and blanket.

Bart gets along well with other dogs, as well as cats and children. He needs a home with a big backyard, and an owner who preferably works from home or part time, as Bart loves to be around people. Someone with a big block or rural property would be ideal. He cannot be shut in a small room or backyard, as Kelpies are very intelligent and will develop bad habits if their active minds are not kept entertained. He is housetrained. He is probably part staffy from the way that he sings when you are not paying him enough attention.

If you or anyone you know would be interested in making Bart part of your family for the rest of his life, please contact me. janey at iinet.net.au . His details are also up on my facebook, and on the petrescue.com.au site, thanks to SAFE perth.

credit cards

Thu, 08 Jan 2009 03:38:35 GMT

i'm a bad bad person who doesn't check her livejournal very often. i check my facebook and email a little more regularly. but you are best to get me on my mobile phone if you really want to invite me to a party, tell me you're knocked up, or ask for help with something.

but since all you people who are reading this still check lj, i shall ask for your help.

I am looking at getting a credit card soon. If I just wanted to buy stuff on the net, I'd get a debit card, but I want a bit more than that. I don't need massive limits or ridiculously low interest - I'd pretty much be paying it off every week. I want it for things like all the stuff I get direct debited, because I keep having an empty bank account and getting scunted for going into the negative while I wait for payday. I pay rent, bills, I donate to a charity once a month, I have a car, I have pets. I earn about $700 a week, and I spend that every week cos I'm paying off debt rather than saving right now. I'm with bank of queensland and I'd rather not get credit with them as they're stupid and new at the moment.

So! Especially aussies, please tell me what your experiences have been with credit cards.

looky looky i got hooky

Tue, 16 Dec 2008 14:05:16 GMT

it's 5.35am, i'm an hour and a half away from finishing overnight hospital shift. this is the best shift for money, but a killer for sleeping patterns and social lives. you see all the most horrific stuff, none of the mundane. but all of the awesome too. i do about one a week. i'm sitting in the 'fish bowl' which is the office for the hospital vets (there are consult, hospital and surgeon vets on in the day, and just hospital from midnight-7am, excepting emergency surgeries or disasters) in the middle of hospital, with glass all around it so they can see everything, but a door so they can shut out (some of) the noise. i've brought in one of my patients, cos she won't settle and she's tearing her cage to shreds. poor chook, she hates being away from home, and she only has one eye so she's having issues with the glass door. but at least she's quiet in here. this is the only time of day a nurse can get away with looking at facebook etc. there is nothing else to do that wouldnt rob the patients of a few hours of darkness and sleep. hence, here i am. usually i try to sleep but i've been drinking too much coke... the beginning of this shift was horror.

so.

- what to do for halloween? next friday. argh! thoughts people. i would prefer a fun big house party to an event.. i seem to have done that for the past few years and it's not as cool. no idea re: costume, i think i'll try to hire tho.

- 5 hour ink session next week. petrified much?!!!?!?!?!

- for those who aren't glued to my facebook status... i has a boyfriend. zomg. he is rad. so there. we are in the ridonkulously cute new relationship stage. and it's the bomb.

- this week i have met two echidnas, one most evil dog in the universe, one live dugite, and have progressed further into my misanthropic doom. painful death to all those who shoot cats with bb guns.

- so. many. people i know. getting engaged. and pregnant. way awesome for them. but seriously.. freaking me out a tad. feeling a lot like i'm a different species.

- how superb (say it again lucas) is this weather! i've been to the beach, worn a dress (!!), eaten ice cream, started counting southern cross tattoos again... ah yes, my season approaches! i think i may need to get an air con unit for my bedroom tho.

- seem to be somewhat getting back into a check-lj-at-least-once-a-week pattern. it's an ok level to be at. facebook is still winning for keeping me updated on general things, like invites and bdays, but it's nice to read peoples crap sometimes too. altho srsly, some of you need lives. jk!

and in closing.... i want cuddles.

mood.

warm sunshine

cute boy

soy cookies n cream ice cream

good music

the promise of things to come

.....

things are pretty sweet. life is progressing well... i am not looking too far into the future, but enough to make plans of relative scope.

someone asked me if i could have anything in the world what would it be. i answered, a jet plane so i could see my friends whenever i want. and it's true. of course fame fortune blah de blah would be fun, but truly, everything is going well. i just miss that i can't see certain friends very often.

come dance with me.

Two awesome things in my life right now.

I am in lurrrrrrrrve with this fellow:

His name is Ronan and he is a character on Stargate Atlantis... played by Jason Momoa. Who is less hot when not dressed as Ronan. He makes me squishy in the pants region. Woah boy. Buff and tattooed and minimal speaking but lots of saving pretty girls (like Jewel Staite's character) from monsters. Yep. My uterus is ready for his babies.

And dancing all over the sunny place to this awesome swedish artist called Familjen:

Familjen is Johan T Karlsson. He sings in Swedish, or Scanian which is a specific dialect. I loves it. It reminds me of Dina.

Not to mention, sunshine, two days off, awesome music to be dancings to, magical visitor from Melbum, cute boy coming to my house, plans progressing...

Keep Sunday December 14th free for SuspendoFest3000!!!! re, my suspension event at the bakery.

P.S. here are some work photos, cute puppy included:

Katia and I, and a cat whose name I have forgotten.

Trying to look diabolical with the oscilatting saw.

Pirate Jack! and his one eyed teddy! he actually removed the teddy's eye on his own, which is spooky. His eye was unfixably injured with chicken wire.

He lurrrrrrves me. He is only 9 weeks old, and he is massive. He is going to be the biggest dog in the whole world.

:O
