Ugh, my guppies have parasites! I have been keeping guppies and trying to breed them as feeder fish for my turtles.  As you can see, this poor dude has been chased a few times and the turtles did manage to catch his tail. The other day I noticed these white things on a few of the fish (which look greenish …

First we had McDreamy, then we had McVet, and most recently we’ve had McSteamy… oooooh, McSteamy *fantasizes* According to recent news, it would seem that George has earned himself a McTitle… although I can’t seem to find one that really rolls off the tongue. McGay? McHomo? McQueer? In any case, he’s come out of the closet. Not George (although that …

I’m sure there are a lot of people around the world who would love to club Dr. Phil, I’m not one of them though.   I like the guy and I enjoy his show… although I do wish he’d pimp his books slightly less. I was walking through the city center Friday morning on my way to meet up with a …

Last winter I took a quilting class with another expat girl I know.   I know it sounds like something only old women would enjoy, but it’s actually quite nice.  It’s relaxing to sit and sew in front of the TV and such.   I don’t have a sewing machine yet so I do it all by hand. I ended up missing …

My internet is back!!!… and the fight against internet blog whores continues! Eish.. 93 days on 25peeps so far… and while I’ve come EXTREMELY close to being peeped out, I’m still hanging in there! This isn’t about blog traffic for me.  It’s become a crusade.  A fight against internet blog whores slores. Everywhere you go, there are chicks using their cleavage, …

While I write this I keep hitting ‘Try Again’ on the time out thing in Firefox hoping that I have an internet connection. Last night I went to see The Devil Wears Prada with two girlfriends of mine.  The movie was good and I really enjoyed getting out with the girls for the evening.  We had some good eats, good …

This pink is starting to get on my nerves. Good cause… good cause. Still looking forward to getting back to normal though. I’ve been so restless lately.  That kind of restless where I can think of a load of things that need to be done but I don’t want to do any of those things. I don’t just want to …

This week’s theme is Lost, and I resisted the urge to swipe some photo of one of the sexy LOST stars and use that. Instead I’m going to post this photo, taken about a year or two ago of one of the kids in our neighbourhood. I am using it for this week’s theme because I think it’s an example …

(There’s spoilers, so if you don’t wanna know shit you haven’t seen yet, don’t read it… I warned you!) HOW awesome was this week’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy (Season 3 Episode 4 – What I am)?!?! McDreamy wins the fight for Meredith’s heart and panties, George fucks up yet AGAIN with Callie, Kerev dumps Ped’s for Plastics (and possibly regrets …

I’m a Pirate, I admit it, and writing about TV shows recently has made me think of just how much I love BitTorrent.  TV in the Netherlands blows, hardcore.  It’s getting better but it’s still nothing like back in North America. Recently we ordered digital cable but that turned out to be just more channels with nothing on them.   So …

This week’s FOAD is dedicated to one of the groups of people I hate most in this world. The people who have no concept of personal space.   The Personal Space Invaders! Face talkers are the ones I hate most.   The people who can’t talk to you unless their nose is almost touching yours.  As if they are deaf, or getting …
