So this weekend I started playing with my new phone which is probably the most technologically advanced thing I own.
It is an HTC Legend. It is capable of doing lots of things like taking pictures and playing music and browsing the internet, regrettably there is no app for washing up yet,…

Unless they have SingStar, amirite?

This week, I attempt to do three weeks worth of work in four days, while ensuring that I carve out some time in which I can also do three weeks worth of getting it on in four days. Then I fly to the USA.
Hey, nobody made you read my blog.

We bought a daybed for $5k, ostensibly because it was on special. A daybed.
It’s white leather. I’m not allowed to sit on it. $5k. Daybed.
White.
Leather.
Can’t sleep. Clowns will eat me.
We’re design whores, don’t forget. I live in a very chi-chi concrete box that cost way too much and drive a black mini cooper. I’m a fucking caricature of...

Ross' Unhappy Place
At a 10 course degustation with wine pairings that lasts over 3 hours while facing a woman at the next table who licks her knife at every course.
Happy Place(s)
Airports, airplanes, ships, and hotels. What can I say, I used to love being in transit. Still do, but I’m very glad I don’t do it as much as I used to.
Who needs a unifying theme anyway?: The thing... →

I don’t know how to explain it, and I’m not sure really how it was we noticed it. See, I used to be unhappy in a the way that people are when they’re alone in the company of others. I was acutely aware of the passage of time, and the passage of time was excruciating.
Then, near enough to five…
I’ve been noticing this for the last couple of years, how Ross will...

(In Response to Charles Warnke’s You Should Date An Illiterate Girl.)
Date a girl who reads. Date a girl who spends her money on books instead of clothes. She has problems with closet space because she has too many books. Date a girl who has a list of books she…
This, and the essay to which it responds, makes me want to stab things - not living things, because...
Is it time to bitch about Easter yet?
Because, seriously, that Easter Bunny, what an anal fissure.
Ok not really, because this year Easter is a FIVE DAY WEEKEND here in Australia. Fuck, yes. Thank you Easter Bunny (and the ANZACs)! Bawk, bawk!
Last night
we did Valentiney stuff for a friend. Flowers, chocolate, champagne, and sushi on the terrace, then a soak in the hot tub. It was nice. She loved it (even though it turned out she was hoping we were taking her to a strip club - don’t look at me, I have no damn idea). But it sure made me appreciate the fact that Ross and I completely ignore Valentine’s Day in our relationship....
So
we have a hot tub. Which is way better than Xanax.
So we take Xanax and then sit in the hot tub.
…
Of course.
The only way
I have of knowing that Valentines Day is approaching is because of everyone pissing and moaning about it online.
So, thanks for the reminder about the 75% off chocolates on 15 Feb.

Wednesday. Much nicer than Tuesday.
There you go, kids.
My Wednesday was great. The weather forecast was wrong, and as a result my clothesline got a real workout - 4 loads, all dried in the sun. What an amazing invention.
I purposefully searched
for a photo of unattractive people on that naked bike ride. If you GIS “World Naked Bike Ride” there are loads of photos of hot chicks actually participating. I think it’s a conspiracy and I’m not falling for it, thank you very much. When I worked on cruise ships, I worked a nudist charter cruise once. The most disturbing part was how much nudists accessorize. Hats,...
