a way to spice up your sleeping life so that it no longer smells like a donkey

My bed is a pretty awesome place. A lot of good things have happened there (not sexual, get your magenta-minds out of the gutter) and I plan to continue having good things happening there for a while yet to come. However, of late, I’ve gotten bored of my bed. Sure I could move the bed into [...]

the remnants of a weekend spent in hibernation

I called in sick to work on Saturday. And I really was. My throat had a decidedly gooey feel to it and everytime I got vertical, the room would cruelly spin fast in a counter-clockwise direction. I spent most of Saturday asleep in a sort of blanket and cushion nest I assembled on the floor [...]

an invitation and many canine-oriented love words left floating in the air

Yes, I admit, I have been neglecting the blog somewhat. But I have good reason!!! I’m a part of a group Street Press thingo that’s full of incredibly nice and attractive people and we are launching our first zine!
I’ve attached the invite. However, since the only people who really read this blog are members of [...]

hannah & the public display of rhythm (non-music review)

Okay, this is in no way a music review or advertisement. I don’t own a fly buys card, I am not a gym member and I am not the leader of some sort of religious sect where I will lure you into my fold by the power of my mind and levitation skills.
On Wednesday night [...]

one of the weirder food combinations, possibly the weirdest out there

On Sunday morning, I was exposed to something which I think actually killed my tastebuds a little. A friend who had stayed over had on his crumpets the rather alarming combination of vegemite and peanut butter.
I know! This is stuff of freak status people, but I have to say I do admire his creativity and [...]

a truly awesome purchase and the division of time in a 7 day week

Yesterday I made a truly awesome purchase for a truly awesome price which will provide me with a truly awesome amount of entertainment for any number of truly awesome tram rides. For the bargain price of 99 cents, I bought John Travolta: An Illustrated Biography, published in 1976. I love books, I truly do, but [...]

the personal minefield that is underwear shopping

Yes, everybody wears underwear. Just like everyone sleeps, eats and poops, everyone (i hope) wears some form of underwear at least a couple of times during their life. But at the age of 22, I still get embarrassed talking about underwear, being in the underwear department and even taking the underwear I am about to [...]

university: a musing on whether or not i should join this educational movement

I was at university once. Yes, I too did pay HECS and I too did get assigned an impossible to remember library password. However, I left halfway through. Now, I am absolutely positive that I have a brain, either that or my head is inhabited by a race of miniture aliens who control my every [...]
