nicked this off a friend:

a guy from my studio group posted this up on our wall, "just for me". i don't know if i should be insulted. i think maybe a little? 

still, it's a pretty funny website. i hope those shades are a joke, but i don't think they are.  

p.s. i hope my picture never winds up on this site

some highlights from da's trip to sydney up on flickr. the rest are on her facebook. maybe if you are nice and friendly to her you'll get to see the rest of it!

also the photos are all out of order thanks to flickr uploadr. 

the baby of our family has turned 17!

australian "news" has finally caught up with twitter! like omg guys you are so two years ago. or whatever. and suddenly, 

also, after months of trying to figure out how to add a twitter badge to my blog, i realize i am not technologically savvy enough to do so without succumbing to blogger's strange requirement that only helps you out with twittering if you use one of their standard templates. hence, this new layout. actually, i'm kind of liking it! plus having a tweet might actually resuscitate this floundering blog.

anyhoo da's coming to visit, i've got two deadlines due next week, and i've got to sort out a mojo jojo costume for gallian magdallian's villains party. mojo jojo! that is who i am. and the villain i shall be is moooojo jojo! so, for the time being there will be no fancy pants header graphic or anything to distract you from the woeful lack of substance and you'll just have to content* yourself with the quality um ... content* of this blog.

now i must go pretend to do some work. 

* homigosh y'all, see what i did there? homonym alert!
