Paws, you're famous!

Paws is a lolcat!

Check him out & vote here! =)

This isn't turning into a blog about cats is it?

heehee... no.... *guilty look*

I'm justifying this post by saying I'm practicing using backlighting on my new camera phone (Samsung Wave if you're interested) and blogging. The long running Roomba vs Paws saga is just a bonus.

Ummm

Where you goin'?

Allright, I'm over it

Other good Roomba/cat interactions can be found here and here (youtube).

And my all time fave photo of Paws:

Clearly a quality product!

More Spoons please!

I've been meaning to write about my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome / M.E. But what to say? It's been an 11 year journey for me. Filled with lots of ups, downs and couches. Several important lessons learnt (what's important in life? What does a true friend look like?) but also many many tears.

Honestly, the best way to describe it is with the Spoon Theory. Take a minute to check it out. (Then come back! ;)

Seriously, if you're sufferer of a long-term illness, do yourself a favour & check out the whole website here. The author, Christine, is also on twitter.

If you're not a sufferer check out the spoon theory. It's so brilliantly written & has given the Prince & I a new language to describe how I'm doing. Today I have a few spoons, probably enough if I space them out.

I'm a spoonie!

Anyway, I know this is quite rambly and brainfoggy, but that's the CFS way, and if there's anything I've learnt from CBT (more about that later) it's if something is worth doing, it's worth doing badly! ;)

Oh dear

from here

To be honest, I'm not surprised. He was locked up in the laundry this morning for trying to eat me as I patted him.

I should probably go let him out actually...

What's wrong with this picture?

Yes, once again the cat has arranged him self to be exactly in the middle of the couch leaving no room for me. Looks like I'm stuck sitting on the coffee table...

Blatant Plug

Organic Veggies for those in Melbourne!


If you're like me, you really want to eat organic veggies, but just can't afford them. Well - an answer is at hand!!


Some friends of mine are starting up a business called Goopa (good old fashioned produce) where they offer cheap organic, pesticide-free and regular fruit & veg. Did you know normal organic shops put the price up by 200%? What a rip-off!

Plus, if you join by the 15th of October you waive the VIP membership fee. So hop to it! Your taste buds will thank you!

Nerds & Geeks explained

From Matthew Gain's Posterous

I love this. I'd like to think I'm a geek, with intelligence (hey, I study at Melbourne Uni!) and the odd obsession (Star Wars anyone?) but maybe that's for someone else to decide...

I remember when 'nerds' 'dorks' and 'dweebs' were the ultimate insults. How far we've come...

What are you? Or do you aspire to some kind of 'cool'?! =)

Oops!

...and now I'm a blogger.

I was minding my own business one Monday morning, when oh no, what are my hands doing? I seem to have made myself a blog. First it was a private twitter, then a public account, an email, then oops-now it's a blog.

At least now I have space for all my favourite things online?

Okay, off to visit seriously ill Grandma in rehab. (From a stroke! what is wrong with you ppl?!)

May the stretching begin!
