I double dog dare you. And this one. Lady Miss Banjola as a small child. Isn’t it amazing what you can do with unskilled labour.

I didn’t exactly cry my body weight yesterday, but very close. Today my vision is very blurry. My feelings of sadness, failure and rejection loom large right now.  Paul and I went for a walk late last night and halfway through the walk he – unwittingly – picked a seat where I could see my [...]

I didn’t know he was running two strategies in opposition to each other – concurrently.

I’m tempted to take and post pictures of how he left his livingspace, but that wouldn’t be nice.

I have blogged at other times about pornography, and have mentioned in my self description that I am a pro porn feminist. Last night I had the opportunity to view some Czech ‘home-made’ porn from a co-op swingers club where the members raise money for the club by selling home made porn (made on-site), which [...]

Yesterday I emailed one of my colleagues with “Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t quit.” Within thirty seconds (I do not exaggerate) he emailed back “Cause I love ya.” He literally prevented me from getting up and walking out, [...]

Wish I had a thousand bucks US, I’d commission him to do a pic of Katchoo kissing the Sandman while Francine looks jealous!

I was terrified she’d gotten herself blown up in Baghdad.  Check out the blogroll.

Rob of Nine suggested I post this link as a stern reminder to folks why they DON’T want children.

Murphy’s laws of Cowboy Action Shooting. Lexi you should find this amusing too.

A really really really dysfunctional family.

As things stand, I should be moved in by about 9 pm on Tuesday the 1st.  I fired off an email to folks who might have any interest in knowing where I’ll be living, and will follow up with the non-email people later this week. My next vacation days are in June, and I don’t [...]
