Since Christmas for me is one big roller-coaster ride that starts on Christmas Eve and doesn’t stop until you’re throwing-up a little in your own mouth from all the family get-together’s, work do’s and drinking copious amounts of alcohol in-between just to make the whole experience bearable… I thought it would be soft to let [...]
I was doing so well and managed to get everything up-to-date on the blog… and then failed to post for about 6 weeks and now I’m back to square one. It’s 9:15pm on a Monday night and I’m only just starting to feel human again after a huge weekend of drinking. Sometimes I make references [...]
I probably should be catching-up on some work because our newest staff member – Emily started today. I thought I was brilliantly organised with a long list of tasks for her to complete, but as I began delegating the jobs, I discovered I hadn’t prepared adequate documentation to accompany the tasks which ended-up resulting in [...]
I find it funny that I tend to suck at a lot of the things I enjoy the most… or as Kurt Cobain would say “I’m worst at what I do best… and for this gift, I feel blessed”. Two of these things just happen to be gaming (of the computer or console variety) and [...]
Over the weekend, Kristy and I went to see one of her old school friends’ husband play in a band. The band’s name is “Mum’s Tennis Friends”. Those last couple of sentences probably make perfect sense, however, if not structured in that way… or if some details are not made obvious, this simple concept can [...]
It’s 2:30pm on a Saturday afternoon – I’ve only been awake for a few hours, just had a shower, ate a couple of slices of left-over pizza, checked my email, cranked some old-school Leftfield, George is asleep at my feet and now it’s time for a beer and a blog post. This is the first [...]
How much has this blog sucked lately?!? I personally blame the author. So I’m going to be doing three types of posts over the next few days/weeks/months in an effort to catch-up with everything (not that I expect it will work-out as planned) but this is what I have in mind… Current posts discussing the [...]
The weekend before last, I was incredibly useless when it came to helping Skye and Scotty with their gardening due to a nasty hang-over… not that I enjoy gardening at the best of times, but when hung-over, it only makes the already painful task unbearable. But I made a promise that I would help, so [...]
Last weekend I went to a local Twitter Meetup which wasn’t bad, although wasn’t brilliant either. The tricky thing with these types of gatherings is that other than a common interest in a social media site there’s very little that holds the group together. This was also the case with a blogging meetup group I [...]
So, in that last post I said I wanted to start doing stuff… and well, it’s been fairly busy since making that decision. So a few weekends ago my mate Cameron had a Guitar Hero World Tour party… and it rocked… as I did, like the bastard love-child of Van Halen, Freddie Mercury and Hendrix… [...]
