This was our first photo together, taken at one of Bathurst’s lesser reputable pubs. Adam was a second year IT student; I was a first year Cultural Studies student. He was 20; I was 18. We could’ve represented Australia in the sport of ‘Public Displays of Affection’. Yes, I suppose we were a little…

Without wanting to come off as sounding slack I’ve not blogged my recipe challenge recipes for the past few weeks because… well… I guess I was too slack. But I have been keeping up with the task. Week Six: was this Chicken and Spinach Lasagne from Taste. Week Seven: is this week, and I’ve scraped…

The notion that first borns are natural leaders, charismatic and have generally higher IQs. The middle child might compensate for lack of attention by becoming a performer or demonstrate behavioural…
Hello! I wasn’t going to blog today. But the phonecalls, dear Lord, the pleas by my family to put something up, please, something light, something fresh. Like a palate cleanser to yesterday’s pot of EMO STEW. If you read it you’ll probably see what they’re talking about. And then I was like, “People! Stop being so needy! You…

This post has been sponsored by Nuffnang.
