I think the school holidays have mashed up my brain, because I have not been able to form a coherent blog post in over a week now. So I thought I would bring back my sporadic newsletter. It’s really is actually very sporadic. I think the last one I published was in June 2015! It’s basically a chatty post, designed to catch you up on the sometimes quite random things that we’ve been up to or that have been going through my brain. You know. So I don’t have to string one single idea together into a palatable post…ha. Sorry not sorry! So, here’s what’s been going on… The 24…

Facebook: I love it but sometimes I don’t.
pic Facebook. It’s just this little social networking site. Don’t know if you’ve heard of it? It’s a place where your worlds collide. You can see into the lives of almost everyone you’ve ever (or even ‘never’) met, on a daily (or several times daily – let’s be honest) basis. This can be fun. It can be voyeuristic in the kind of way where someone has actually invited you to stalk them so it kind of makes it OK. Used wisely, it is a great way to connect with people instantaneously and to share your lives with those who may not always be geographically close to you. I recently…

The Case of the Missing TV Remote Control.
On Monday, March 4, 2013 some time around the witching hour (also sometimes known as ‘arsenic hour’), a black LG TV remote control disappeared from its usual place of inhabitance. One Husband Unprepared (30), an unwitting witness in this case, claimed that he had last seen it when he turned on the television to watch Some Boring Show About Cars (may have paraphrased). The whereabouts of the remote are still unknown. One suspect is within the sights of law enforcement and has been questioned extensively. A transcript below: Investigator: Hey, Little Mister. Where have you put the remote control, mate? Where is it? Where is it? Little Mister remains tight…

Being alone. What does that mean to you?
Pic OK, so I know I’m getting old (oooh 29 this year – anyone reading this who is older than me may roll their eyes right *now*) when I start to watch shows on any of the (Australian) ABC channels that nobody has probably ever heard of. If they involve nature and British ‘celebrities’ (who I know nothing about), then I get bonus old person points. I don’t know why I think of it like that. I guess I figure if it’s something my parents would watch, I feel old because only a little while ago, these are the types of shows I would mock them for liking. What goes…

My brain: Making not-weird things seem weird since 1984.
Pic – Yep, that’s me! I have this…thing where I think about stuff (haha keep the jokes to yourself). Stuff that no-one else seems to think about. I seem to stop and notice things in my life that are there every single day and freak the eff out. Like I’ve never seen or thought about these things before – ever. Are you confused yet? These could be the ramblings of a very tired semi-insomniac or they could be the thoughts of a brilliant mind. You decide. When I was a kid, I kept asking the adults in my life WHY DO WE YAWN? Everyone kept saying, “Because you’re tired. Duh.”…
