It is fortunate for McD
Saturday, October 07, 2006

It is fortunate for McD that I am nearly always sleeping on my left side ... Due to a number of nose injuries (war woulds :O) If I sleep on my right hand side I can't breath well .... And since I'm one of those people that needs a breath or two of air in my lungs through the night I tend to lie on my left side and spoil myself with lots of air .....

However I am prone to violent movement in the night as well .... A few months ago I was dreaming about being stuck in a drain pipe ...(Please don't do the psycho-bubble analysis on me ) while stuck along came a big rat (don't they feature a lot in peoples minds ) anyway I awoke with a BAM_BAM as I did a double puch to the rat ... Safely absorbed by the bed and not McD all was well .....

A week or so back I deamt of a confrontation with some thug dude ..... That resulted in a karate style strike to his neck .... Several items cleared noisily from the bedside table beside me ...... McD awoken but again no damage done ...

Last night another confrontation with a dude on a boat ..... as we fought he messed up with his guard exposing his rib cage ..... BAM .... Finger tip strike into and between his ribs ...... Again I awoke .. This time a little pain ... As I had struck the bed but obviously my finger crumpled up in the strike and the joint is no somewhat sore .....

And McD sleeps on ..

And I don't even eat cheese !! so can't blame that ....

Bit of a worry for me really ... Probably a bit more of a worry for McD I guess ......
========================================================

It's just gotten very silly at work .... I'm swamped with work ... and a good percentage of it is stuff that shouldn't be happening or that our outsourcing vendor should be doing ..... The current Delivery manager with the outsourcer has resigned ... and Good riddance I say .... She's very very nice .. but just doesn't understand her role .... We then asked for a specific delivery manager and as it turned out they were able to assign him to us ..... We talk the same language and both know what needs to be done .... So thats a start ......

But I'm still too busy to do my real job ...

Had to do to Auckland Wednesday night (return friday afternoon) .. As is always the way when I book these trips, we had flights cancelled and big delays due to high winds and low cloud (almost fog ) .... So got to visit a few sights and meet with the Auckland division and Vendors ...and got grumbled at by far too many about issues they have with the IT systems ......

I've spat the dummy with them too many times in the past few weeks...But I did have the vendors national services manager with me at the meetings in Auckland ... thats like the delivery managers bosses boss .... It was really good of him to join me on this ... I hope he got to feel a little of my pain ....

IT'S DIET TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I start a diet today ... Again .... I may start another diary to write about it .. .It can be a bit repetitive and boring listening to people's dieting woes ... But there again I want to dcument it and it's a diary I am writing here so where better to put it ...

So I'll think about that ....

I have a diet plan worked out .. Sensible (designed by scientist from the Ozzy CSIRO ) and have an exercise plan that is there but will need tweaking in the next week as I find whats sensible and whats not ....

Goals - to lose a couple of pounds a week over the next year ... 50kg or 110 Lbs loss...

Do you think I can do it - Bet you don't .........

But if I do lose it then I can get out into the wilds more .. and take pictures like this !!!!!
