In an effort to gain self confidence and deal with body image issues still remaining after my weight loss, I decided to take part in a 365 project focusing on self portraits. My hopes are that after a year of taking a photo of myself ever day, that I will stop hating photos of myself, stop picking apart the things …

Each year my husband and I each get our own gifts, but we also decide on one large combined gift that we share. Either something we want for the house, an activity we’d like to try or something we really need that both of us will use and enjoy. This year we have been undecided and Christmas passed us by …

I may very well be the last gamer on the planet to hear about these people, but I feel the need to share… just in case there’s someone more out of the loop than I am. The Guild are a group of gamers who came together to make their own web-based show about five people who belong to a …

I have a bunch of stuff in my head but can’t really concentrate on one single thing. Welcome to my pity party… I went to a party last weekend that had a lot of crying snot covered little kids in a small area. Having not purchased myself a plastic bubble yet, I got ANOTHER COLD.

My husband found this drawing on the Internet somewhere and we both laughed our asses off. I shit you not, we have actually had this exact conversation. Honestly, it’s like a day in the life of the Soldaats right there…

They live in Roosendaal, about a 35-40 minute drive from us, so we get together once every 1-2 weeks if we are lucky. The place they are housesitting is like …
Read More »This week I’m playing Lord of the Rings Online. Xander has grown bored with World of Warcraft and bought LOTRO to try something different. It came with a 7 day free trial for a friend so I installed it on my laptop to arse around with it. It’s been a long time since I did any gaming of any kind …
Read More »Well I never thought I’d ever say this, but… I miss WoW. Argh.. shit! This is the 2nd time over the past number of years that I’ve quit gaming. The last time was after Star Wars Galaxies and before World of Warcraft. I had quit gaming completely for about 10 months and then was lured back by a friend who was …
Read More »This week I’m FOADing my husband and his World of Warcraft addiction. I am quickly reaching the end of my rope with it and I feel like a total hypocrite about it… but I don’t care. I’m sick to death of his gaming addiction. Being a former gamer myself it’s hard not to feel like I don’t have a lot …
