Over breakfast today (the unexpected but strangely satisfying combination of raisin toast and crinkle cut chips with possibly a little too much coffee), I remembered something I heard recently about the nature of being in love. I can’t say that I’ve been in love so far in my life, at least with a person, but [...]
the extremely organised and slightly mob like advances of magpies in the park
I was ogled by a magpie today. Braving nature and all it’s unpredictabilities, I sat in the park for a little while and a magpie with beadier than usual yellow eyes engaged in a silent battle with me. He plonked himself in front of my feet and would waddle back and forth, looking at me [...]
public sleeping and surrealist yellow animated entertainment
I find my plans tonight to be exciting even if they don’t involve a whole lot of whipped cream, four hunky guys, an inflatable pool and the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever. What they do involve however are a DVD of The Yellow Submarine, a new loaf of fruit toast and the ongoing exploration of [...]
extremely inappropriate ring tone at a surprisingly high volume
Once again, the library proves an excellent source of free and comfortable temperatured entertainment. Ring tones, I believe are an excellent form of personality representation. I like to think my one says, ‘This girl has such an interesting life that she didn’t have the time or the inclination to sit there on a wednesday evening [...]
a bacon sandwich, the flying pig and the high possibility that i am a coward
I would say that around 98% of the time I am a vegetarian. Meat is expensive, I live alone, I got food poisoning from mincemeat a while ago and I really like cows (I don’t really believe you should really eat something that you want to hug first) (unless you’re stranded on a desert island [...]
drama in the library, rubbish bin throw down
Tee hee hee. I have to come to the library to use the wireless internet (since it’s free) and I do get to experience a varied amount of experiences, but they’re usually of the literary kind. However, drama just ensued, when out of nowhere, a guy came hurrying out of the computer lab with a [...]
pedestrian grievances of the grumpy kind part 1
(I feel it is my civic duty to warn potential readers of this post that it is of the lengthy variety. I had a lot to say, which, is of course, unlike me. I do get a little heated throughout the post so if you’re going to read it, I suggest wearing comfy socks or [...]
pedestrain grievances of the grumpy kind part 2
And finally…Annoying Pedestrian Grievance #5: This is my pet peeve. You’re in the express lane at Safeway on a Friday afternoon, so the word express isn’t really an appropriate term to use. No matter, you get to read all the front covers of the newspapers, as well as The Trading Post cover to cover whilst [...]
photo self-promotion and a hyperactive boy with green hair
So in recent times, I’ve sort of forgotten that I do consider myself a photographer (among other things such as good looking, good in the kitchen and good at scrabble). This is due partly because my computersaurus was out of action for two weeks and I therefore did not have unlimited access to my photo [...]
lost shopping lists that I picked up and gave homes
Yes, I pick up lost shopping lists. Actually, oh wow, I hope you can type stuff then copy and paste it as a post to the blog monster. If you’re reading this I have succeeded, hurrah, I have beaten technology (no not really since technology is built to be accessible for the inept such as [...]
