Going to the county's interview day today and hoping I will find someplace that needs a fresh new English teacher. Wish me luck!

Update: I didn't find anything today, but I'm not discouraged. I'm sure SOMEone will decide to move or have a baby or something later in the summer.

This morning when Dazza was trying to leave for work, the windscreen of the car was iced up. That hasn't happened here in I can't remember how many years.
It's bloody cold. I live in a sub tropical climate. It's not meant to be like this!!!

Well it might get down to single figures over night, but today it was minus in some parts of the city. That's pretty freeking cold! I don't really like cold. I like warm. Bring back my warm!
I have to go get a heater for Max's room today because his poor little fingers were like icicles.

Only 4 more days of the school year for my kids. I just really hope they make it through without getting sick. Lots of rumors going around, but I know that about a fifth of my daughter's grade is out sick with some sort of fever and lethargy. And the rumor is that there's a confirmed case of swine flu in the grade above her, and that 40% of that grade is out sick.
Information from the officials is scarce, but they did send a letter home to the entire school population saying that if any student has a fever they must stay out for 7 days or have a note from a doctor saying they don't have the swine flu. Normal policy is 24 hours after the fever goes away. You know, typing all this out, I wonder if I should be keeping the kids home for this last worthless week of school. |

Below zero in Brisbane? Dang.
It was -6 in Canberra, but that is not too unusual.

Question for the Brits and/or those knowledgeable about British slang:
Kitsune and I were flipping channels and caught an episode of Thomas the Tank Engine where they were singing "Buffer up and share." We are completely baffled by the phrase "buffer up." Is it supposed to be referring to trains like... buffing up the trains, shining them up? Or is "buffer up" a common phrase in the UK? |

No, it's not common. It's a tank engine thing.
