kristen and i have been away at the beach enjoying a short break. i was doing one of my favourite things to do, which is to read the newspaper whilst drinking iced coffee when i saw a rather familiar image on the cover of the summer age:

familiar because tom’s blog features the incredible hulk, as does some of his writing. (not familiar because i am a fan of eric bana’s film version of the hulk, because i’m not).
shortly thereafter i came across a double-page spread of one of tom’s short stories - today on dr phil. isn’t that great?
it’s a big day for snuffy.

even though she’s not here with us, i have discovered that she has been invited to join the flickr group for cats who like corn. yes, there is such a group.
for me this is even more momentous than the time i was invited to join the flickr lobster group when i had a photo of piers akkerman on my blog.


our move is complete, we are unpacked, and you can get a mini-tour of our house here. you won’t see the bathroom because i forgot to snap it. and you won’t see the front of the house because i was too lazy to put my shoes on and i didn’t want to go outside in my “toadally gorgeous” socks i got for christmas (featuring a smiling toad… geddit??)
snuffy’s still staying in bendigo ever since the death threat back in spotswood. just in case you’re missing her the way i am, here’s a photo for you to remember her by.

this is in her typical “i am laying an egg pose”.
this has made me very happy:

this is kristen:
You Are Oscar the Grouch
|

Grumpy and grouchy, you aren’t just pessimistic. You revel in your pessimism.
You are usually feeling: Unhappy. Unless it’s rainy outside, and even then you know the foul weather won’t last.
You are famous for: Being mean yet loveable. And you hate the loveable part.
How you life your life: As a slob. But it’s not repelling as many people as you’d like!
|
and this is me:
You Are Big Bird
|

Talented, smart, and friendly… you’re also one of the sanest people around.
You are usually feeling: Happy. From riding a unicycle to writing poetry, you have plenty of hobbies to keep you busy.
You are famous for: Being a friend to everyone. Even the grumpiest person gets along with you.
How you life your life: Joyfully. “Super. Duper. Flooper.”

kristen has been wondering lately how a virgo and a gemini can be a successful couple (ever since she heard on the top 40 juiciest celebrity hook-ups that hugh grant and liz hurley were doomed because of this equation) but sesame street has explained why we are good together.
so this little critter is the reason i appear not to have been blogging much lately.
but i have been - just anonymously somewhere else until we knew it was going to stick. it looks like it’s sticking so feel free to join us for the journey over at http://thetwinkle.wordpress.com
