Clearing the Headspace v3
Since we last spoke: It took me eleven hours (over Friday and Monday) to re-write three insurance policies. This time round sucked even worse than previous rounds, because I knew what to expect. It’s like wading through jelly or trying … Continue reading

I Shouldn’t, But I Do
I shouldn’t find that funny, but I do. I shouldn’t find myself home alone on a Saturday morning and actually enjoying the peace and quiet. But I am. My Kid is off with The Outlaws, and The Boyfriend is having … Continue reading
My Kid’s Vote Goes To…
@Steri_Stumpie sent me a double-drop of flavoured milky goodness today. Strawberry for me, and bubblegum for my Kid, as you can see. It was a package filled with much pink and blue radness. Will reveal full pics and details about … Continue reading
Don’t Panic: It’s Only Man-Flu
No matter what their age, men really seem to get ridiculously high-maintenance when they’re sick. My Kid currently has what I suspect is developing into a thonking case of bronchitis. There’s more phlegm and snot than I’ve ever seen, and … Continue reading
Rainy Days

Some Things I Noticed…
…about a blonde, a brunette and a redhead… We wear white coats, bitches. Matching and shit. Only fully accidentally. We are full of awesome. We high-five to our sheer awesomeness. We are so full of funny after 12 vodka-and-vitamin-waters. No, … Continue reading
Clearing the Headspace
I am appreciative of: The Kid’s afternoon naps. And a hungover-sleeping-on-the-couch Boyfriend. So I can catch up on some blogging and blog-reading and smoke cigarettes upstairs at my desk (naughty naughty). That Kid’s probably: the cutest thing in the whole … Continue reading
