Kristy’s birthday

Last weekend was Kristy’s birthday and for the first time in ages I managed to actually get her a gift that she liked. I must give full credit to Vicky for her advice, assistance and ongoing badgering, for without it, the gift probably would have sucked.
The gift was a Pandora Braclet and a charm [...]

Vampire Weekend

( Friends and Weekends )

A few weeks back, it was Skye’s 21st which she celebrated by having a vampire party. Now I’m a big fan of vampires (and zombies and pirates and ninjas… and many more things that only young children and geeks should enjoy), so this was a really fun party.
Whenever there’s a celebration that requires some [...]

White guys, peeing, twitter and some cool acrobatics

I’ve been meaning to do a proper blog post about stuff that has actually been happening lately, but everytime I sit down to write something I get distracted. So for now, I’ll just copy-and-paste a bunch of things that I’ve been sent recently.
During the week Vicky sent me a couple of things [...]

More random internet finds to start the week off with

I’ve mentioned that I like Twitter… but sometimes, people just Tweet Too Hard – a site where people’s self-obsessed tweets get the recognition they deserve. While other’s provide much more useful info.
If you’re as geeky as I am, you might also find this pretty funny – http://www.thewebsiteisdown.com/. I don’t spend my days playing [...]

Wet weather, cats and a little bit of nudity

Today I feel a bit like a king – no I don’t have a crown, a throne… or even a castle, but my house DOES have a moat. Recently the local council has been putting curbing and channelling in our street which has meant they’ve ripped-up the footpath, leaving a 2 – 3 food [...]

Random Tuesday Internet Finds

As I haven’t received any negative feedback (well, I haven’t received any feedback, which in my books, is pretty-much the same thing).. I’m going to continue with the random daily internet finds. [update: Vicky did respond which is why I've embedded YouTube clips and haven't linked to articles that contain the word vagina]
To [...]

Blogging quantity and quality

I was at a party on the weekend (I’ll share more about that in my next post as I have pictures etc.) and while at this party I had an opportunity to talk to one of the handful of people who actually read my random ramblings. Yes Vicky, that person was you.
I asked what [...]

Spam makes me laugh sometimes

( Email )

While most of us find spam annoying – I (sometimes) find it fascinating… only sometimes though.
It obviously works to some extent (or at least enough to keep doing it) yet I’ve never met anyone who admits to positively responding to, or making a purchase as a result of spam.
You’ll also be hard-pressed to [...]

I wish I had a cool story as to why I’ve been slack…

On Sunday, I received a call from Con. Amongst other things, he wanted to know why I hadn’t blogged in over a month… and what’s sadder than the fact that it proves he reads my dribble, is the fact that I really don’t have any excuse as to why I haven’t blogged much lately.
I [...]
