* gone *

Off to Dublin to get some blogging tan done. Been a while since I saw my friends and I should get to meet the illustrious Lauren Fisher, if all goes well. In my absence, there’ll be no big long wordy post. However, I can recommend some good reading material to you. Mum has a very [...]

Scary Thought #545

In roughly two weeks, it’ll be 5 months since I ate something chocolate-y. I’ve showered with it, thanks to John. I’ve had my badges replaced with it, but I’m proud to say I haven’t eaten it. 2010: The year we find out 365 alternative uses for chocolate

Laptop Surgery

Serious business. Btw, I made a mistake. That should be a Macbook on the bed, under the knife screwdriver. I said it was an Air. My bad!

Wolfram Alpha?

Intuitive Improvisation: The Secret of Genius

It’s a well (and I mean really well) documented fact that I’m addictede to James Bond. I should really say ‘was’ there, not ‘am’. I’ve grown estranged from it over the past 12 months. I only saw Quantum of Solace over Easter, which was just shy of 6 months after the film hit the cinema. [...]

Music n’ places

I would bet money that I’m not the only person who does this. Associates pieces of music with places. Last Stop in this Town by The Eels will always remind me of skiing. Dad had recently gotten his Macbook Pro (this is the old one) and we took it to Austria with us. John had [...]

Byebye Housey house

Last Monday, the season finale of House M.D. aired. I watched it Tuesday, because I don’t live in America. What am I going to do until September?? Still, there’s always Season 1-3 on DVD
