    Girl on Film
    Due to my imminent deadlines I found myself doing anything but my work, today. I've been meaning to try 12seconds and Seesmic out for a while. So, now I have. There will be more. Later.

    Laugh or join me. I just thought it could be an interesting way to stay in touch with people. We'll see :D

    Bit of colour
    Hi all. Just thought it was a bit embarrassing to have so many tweet posts without a real post, so I thought I'd break it up with some colourful things.

    So, you might recall a while back I told you about my new food porn tumblr. It's here and it's full of all sorts of things to drool over.

    Well, since then I decided I liked Tumblr and that it was perfect for sharing pretty pics and whatnot. So, as well as my Delicious links I'm putting weird and wonderful pics here.





    But since I also wanted a place where I could visually group pretty clothes and fun looks that I liked, I started one all about clothes too.





    So, if you're bored and want to look at pretties, feel free to browse through those too. I will get around to blathering about my life again at some point soon (just in case you missed it). :)

    Just in case there's someone out there who hasn't caught on to this piece of news, Bruce has undergone radical change in order to please the big boss at his new job. He no longer looks like a "hippy" and looks a little more employable. :)

    We can has Manshun!
    Our new house is almost a mansion. We're just renting one bedroom, the kitchen, lounge and bathroom. The owners are trying to sell it, so we might have to vacate at 6 weeks notice, but it's a bloody good deal in the meantime.

    All the gorgeous furniture, artwork and plants are rented to us with the house (as they want the place to look good for potential buyers).

    The landlords are friends of our hosts, so the rental situation is very friendly and a bit unorthodox. The landlord still works from one room of the house, plus their son still has a room full of stuff upstairs. He's not in the country, but might be back on weekends occasionally. When he's here we'll be sharing the kitchen and living space with him. Also, we scored wireless internet access with the deal, so I'm very happy. :D
