NaBloPoMo is finally over for another year and whilst I have enjoyed the challenge of posting every day, I am glad it is over. There are days when there are not simply enough hours to find the time to squeeze in writing a decent blog post and days when my brain is too fired [...]
I went and did my Christmas shopping tonight. Now before you think I am a totally organised person, it is worth mentioning that my family celebrates Christmas a couple of weeks early. My entire family lives 200km north from where I do and traveling on Christmas Day is a complete nightmare. Therefore, we [...]
There is niche blogging and then there is blogging on a subject about which you didn’t think a blog would even exist, Men Who Look Like Old Lesbians falls into the latter category. It is simply a collection of photos of men who really do look like old lesbians, some of them very creepily [...]
I am a self-confessed packrat. I hate to throw anything away cause as soon as I throw it away I will invariably find a use for it. I had a Hawaiian shirt that I had for years and a week after I threw it out I got an invitation for a loud shirt [...]

I was checking out my Technorati rating this morning when I noticed I was being linked to on a site I had never heard of. Curious to see who would be linking to my blog, I headed over to TechFiveSix all interested to see what post of mine they thought interesting enough to mention. [...]
Howard has conceded, Rudd has claimed victory and it looks highly likely that Howard will also lose his seat.
I am going to bed one extremely happy vegemite. It has been a long eleven and a half years under the Howard government during which Australia has become a much meaner and selfish society. Maybe, [...]
It is weird drizzly day here in Sydney - cold one moment and humid the next as I joined my neighbours at the local high school around lunchtime to vote. Unlike other years, there was actually a line so we stood sheltering from the drizzle waiting to vote for about 15 minutes. Long enough [...]
