Oh – That Time of Year Again?

1.What did you do in 2011 that you’d never done before? Got very, very close to giving up on the writing thing. This is the year where I became very uncertain of myself in a great many respects. 2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year? 1. … Read More


Exhibitionist Streak

I love my boobs. I spent much of my adolescence being dis-satisfied with them and wishing they were bigger (as a result I still can’t quite manage to remember to wear a bra regularly) they are beautiful however and they keep changing. Lately, they got a lot bigger (oh so that’s the advantage of getting … Read More


Off To The Side

Apparently I am a part of Generation Y…this reminds me of being a teenager in the 90s and thinking that the 80s had really ruined things for us as there was very little left to be other than nondescript. I suppose that’s pretty apt in some ways, everything we protested about Generation X knew they … Read More


Left-out and Useless

I had a really good day yesterday, got to hang out with M-i-L and The Cult before the Boxing Day Dinner, not as much fun as helping to prep the food but M-i-L has that down these days. I discovered I’ve finally got the proportions right to make the cranberry liqueur the way she likes … Read More


Winter International Lolita Day

Tomorrow is Winter International Lolita Day (first Saturday in December), only I’m intending to LARP all day and then the Jellicle has organised a sedate little gathering in the evening so it looks like I’m not going to get the chance to wear Loli tomorrow. My attempt at a winter lolita look can be seen … Read More


Language and Understanding

So basically the reason that atheists don’t believe in gods and that they continually misunderstand those of us who do is because they have no poetry in their souls. Yeah today one of the ‘but it’s so obvious and logical’ bunch pissed me off by questioning my beliefs and then consistently refusing to argue with … Read More


Doki Doki

I had a really good time today. Me and The Jellicle Cat headed down to Doki Doki and really rather enjoyed ourselves – it wasn’t quite what it had been billed as and it could have done with better organisation (like ticket holders being in a separate queue from those buying on the door from … Read More


RIP Maxine Jackson

They didn’t do Drama at my secondary school, that’s not true actually – they didn’t teach Drama or Theatre Studies or anything else of that ilk. Looking at the website Royston Vasey Grammar still doesn’t teach such things they do still have the school play though (The Mikado this year apparently) but I couldn’t find … Read More


Family

The most disturbing moment in a conversation with The Girl With Golden Hair came a while ago, now what with her being younger than me and a former Sociology student I do have these moments every so often but this one has really stuck with me. It went a little something like this: TGWGH: Did … Read More

So far, new job, so good. So far, my sister got married, so good. Don’t worry – expect new blog entries soon!
