Photo Update

Friday, September 13th, 2002

An Archie photo update has occurred! Two weeks from today until Archie’s first birthday. Better get the picnic invitations organised!
My brother Sam was on telly tonight in NZ, receiving his band’s award for Best Unreleased Single. Maybe the prize is a record deal! It would make sense wouldn’t it? Go the Phoenix Foundation!

Platinum Septums

Friday, September 13th, 2002

Hello from MetroLand! Me and Jan still have the flu, but Archie seems to be fine, so I guess that’s a step up. He did such good waving yesterday at his Uncle Anthony! We are trying to decide whether to get health insurance, I suppose it’s a good idea but it would be about $120 [...]

Numb

Wednesday, September 11th, 2002

Back from the dentist with new heights of numb face reached. I am numb all the way over to my ear and all the way up to my eyebrow! Can your eye go numb? But at least it didn’t hurt, not one little bit!

1 Year On

Wednesday, September 11th, 2002

1 year on - and not much has changed. I still hope that somehow this can make a difference to peace in the world.
All here still have the flu - and I have to go to the dentist this afternoon!

Video Game Channelling

Tuesday, September 10th, 2002

I am a Thrust-ship.
I am small and tricky - where you think I am, I probably am not. I can work very fast, but I tend to go about things in a round about way, which often leaves me effectively standing still. I hate rocks. Bloody rocks. What Video Game Character Are You?

Bleargh

Tuesday, September 10th, 2002

The word for today - bleargh! In the true spirit of family togetherness, we have all managed to get the flu at the same time. Not much sympathy to go around.
I have just finished reading a great online fantasy novel, with lesbian love of course, but a damn good read. It’s called Lorimal’s Chalice [...]

Dynamic Mono

Jemsweb has gone dynamic, baby! Yes, this news item and all of the others are now contained in a database, which means you can navigate through them with a previous/next button and also search for specific words at the bottom of this page. Thanks to Mark Pulford for the software, Personal Weblog. Works a treat! [...]

Congratulations Sam

Sunday, September 8th, 2002

Congratulations to my brother Sam! His band, The Phoenix Foundation, have just won Best Unreleased Song at the 2002 B.Net NZ Music Awards! They won for their song ‘The Drinker’. No idea what the prize is but I believe you can catch Sammy’s acceptance speech on NZ television next week. So congrats Sam and the [...]

The Return Of Bluegrass

Saturday, September 7th, 2002

Just got a lovely package from my mum, with some photos of me as a baby in it - for purposes of Archie comparison of course! I have added a selection for your viewing pleasure in the Photos/People section. He definitely has my nose!
I have been working hard the last few days, barely coming [...]

Back To Work, Jan!

Thursday, September 5th, 2002

More Archie pics added, including documentation of his first meeting with his loving Tasmanian aunt, Larnie. Plus an indication of how messy dinnertime can get!
Jan is headed back to work part time at the end of the month but luckily due to shift work we will not have to get any childcare. We should [...]
