It’s Not All Puppies and Kittens

Having just finished another long streak at work (9 out of 10 days in a row),  I tend to start my weekend with a sleep in. No worries about when to wake up, just whenever sleep runs out.  Perhaps it’s just another form of procrastination, but I like to take the time to appreciate other [...]

So it’s been a while since I posted, I know, I’m sorry. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to post, thought about posting, or have been lacking things to post about….just kind of got caught up with work and life and SURPRISE! it’s more than 6 months later and ‘oh crap’ I haven’t done anything [...]

 
An apple a daykeeps the doctor away ….or is it 10 000 cobs of corn in a box, 10 000 cobs of corn, take one down and pass it around…  you’ve still got lots of corn.  I will explain later. 
First, since my last post was so very long ago let me update you with some [...]

As anyone who works with me can tell you, I had a cracker of a week last week.
There was much cursing. There was lost sleep (that’s the bit where I care too much). There were hi-5’s. There was (hypothetical) wall punching and threats of bodily harm for so much as an inkling of doing something [...]

For reasons still mostly unknown to me, MrIT offered to accompany me to a local op-shop today. We did a very similar thing last week. Strange, but true. Normally this would be a strictly solo adventure. I’ll ask no questions, glad for the company. I tend to buy a lot of books on these trips, [...]

So there’s a TV ad screening at the moment. For a GPS.
Something along the lines of:
[Whining Male]: How will I know where to go? (*snort* like that would be uttered in public)
[Witty Female]: I’ll tell you where to go.
Apparently, this is something that I would say. Apparently.

I’m currently trying to write a profile of myself for our practice website. I got the practical, factual stuff out of the way fairly easily but then got completely stuck at the bit where I should write about myself. You know the bit where in my spare time I am supposed to [...]

 
It’s Valentine’s Day. Most romantic day of the year, or a pile of steaming Hallmark claptrap? For some it’s a day of expectations and romance, for others feelings of contempt or loneliness. It’s only one day, it gets to have a brief appearance between other commercial performances like Christmas, selling made-in-China Australian flags for Australia [...]

It feels a little odd to be celebrating anything given the state of the world right now, but for a moment of self indulgence and reflection – I’m another year older today(well, yesterday by the time I post this). Meanwhile over here on the east coast of Australia, we have one state under water and [...]

If  you’ve read some of my previous posts you’d have noticed that my dear, sweet boyfriend likes to profess his love for me in strange ways. First twisted, now I’m just the bane of his existence. No sorry, wait – I was just informed that I have always been the bane of his existence (thanks for [...]
