{January 7, 2007}   gigolo! huh, sucker!

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.
snuffy eats corn 2
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.

{January 3, 2007}   give me the simple life


fun in photo booths



{December 30, 2006}   wondering where i’ll be on my birthday

God
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??)



{December 30, 2006}   turn around, look at what you see

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.
Get up close to snuffy laying an egg
this is in her typical “i am laying an egg pose”.



{December 23, 2006}   look at the state you’re in

this has made me very happy:



{December 23, 2006}   you are the best you can

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!

The Sesame Street Personality Quiz

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.”

The Sesame Street Personality Quiz

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.
