Floriditas Scandal

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

Someone, please forward me the apparently notorious Floriditas email mentioned on WellUrban! I need to know the gossip!
For the record I too had a fantastic dining experience the one time I went (my birthday). Great friendly service with bonus wine advice and delicious food. But I still want to read the email…

The Big Swapparooney

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

Okay, I am about to change over servers. There may be a slight downtime as I can’t get into the new server until the DNS changes over, so service will be patchy over the next 24 hours. But we’ll be back asap.
Oh, and I had my uterus x-ray thingy, it was fine, not too painful […]

Goodbye Shelley

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

I was sad to see Shelley go from NZ Idol last night, but I admit she did deserve it. She had a certain magic with the camera that came through in the more intimate Top 24 shows, but vanished when she was on a huge stage with a live audience. Still I thought she gave […]

Big Day

Monday, August 22nd, 2005

Today is a very important day. Today I have given up coffee and alcohol for at least four months. All to maximise the chances of conception as the attempts at donor insemination start next month. (Apparently caffeine is not good for your fertility!) And each attempt costs $900!! So there’s a bit of pressure to […]

Dandy Lion

One of Harry’s favourite books has a photo of a dandelion in it. Ever since I told him it was a dandelion, he points at the photo, and utters “Roooooarrrr”!

Gossip website Ananova.com reports that Britney is prepared to name her baby Charlie no matter what sex the child is.

Kooky

Wednesday, August 17th, 2005

We all trucked out to Plimmerton this morning for the Wellington Down Syndrome Association’s monthly coffee morning. Normally such events fill me with dread but it was actually bloody good fun. The kids ran about for two hours entertaining themselves, and we got to meet some very nice and funny new people whom we had […]

Moving Servers

Tuesday, August 16th, 2005

I have decided to move to a different hosting company. The one I started out on has priced themselves a bit high since getting taken over by Yahoo. I’m not sure how this process will go so apologies in advance for any down time madness!!

Tragic

Tuesday, August 16th, 2005

Is there anything more tragic than two sick toddlers and a crappy DVD player from the Warehouse that is BROKEN and cannot play a single second of ELMO? This morning I went to Noel Leeming and bought a Sony. Now Elmo is blaring, the toddlers are happy - well, as happy as can be […]
