Last month I wrote an update on what the current situation is in regards to the fertility treatments. In short, I have had six rounds of IUI (artificial insemination) with no luck, now I need to take a break to lose a further 15-20 kilos before we can start treatments again. I was a bit worried about how it was …

30 Days of Truth: Day 24
Ugh, I’ve been dreading this one. I’m really not a big music person… there are a lot of songs I can sing along with but ask me who sings them or what they are called? Forget it… I’m not going to do a playlist for just one person, because I’ll never come up with the songs but I’ll just give …

I wish that I had been smart enough to take advantage of growing up in a house with a man who spent his entire life playing the guitar. Music and playing the guitar are my father’s biggest passions in life. I grew up watching him playing in bands and teaching the boys in the neighbourhood to play the guitar. He …

Ok or originally this said “Write a letter”, I can’t be arsed to do that. If I write about some famous artist here, they will never read it, and if they did I’d probably drop dead and you’d never hear from me again. So I’m just going to answer the question. The artist who has gotten me through some tough …

There is one thing I never get complimented on and I have to be honest about this, it really hurts! Not only have they not complimented me on it but they’ve gone so far as to insult me about it! Cruel, insensitive bastards! Nobody has ever complimented me on my singing, and lemme tell ya, I can croon along with …

A few months ago I got a new phone, and I’m so incredibly in love with it. It’s a HTC Desire android phone and I honestly don’t know what I would do without it. It does everything for me, it’s my mp3 player, phone, camera, ereader, agenda… it’s my brain! Isn’t it pretty? My preciouuuuusssss… I love that I can …

A soul patch? No. Just… no. I love you Charlie, I like your face, I like your voice, I even believe you deserve your own team just like Edward and all the other boys, but the soul patch? This video? No.

This morning was weigh in day. I got on the insult machine, looked down and told it to go fuck itself. It would appear that making that 1 pound my bitch is going to be more difficult than I thought. Instead, my body was all like HA, I’ll take your 1 pound and see you a half a kilo. Then …

My father (seated center) and his band, The Morticians, in the ruins of Moxham’s Castle (1966) Today an old friend of the family posted these photos of my father and his band, The Morticians, on Facebook. They were taken in the mid to late 60’s. I’ve heard a lot about the band my father played in when he was a …

I know you’ve probably seen this before I did, and I’ll spare you the Haiti talk. You can find that on pretty much every other website on the internet and if you are or aren’t going to donate nothing I say here will make a difference. I wanted to share this video anyway for a number of reasons. I loved …

Back in May, my friend Penny got me a ticket to see P!NK for my birthday. I was SO excited but it seemed like it was ages away at the time. May to December, that’s a long time to wait! It got here in a flash though and I sat here yesterday saying “I can’t believe it’s P!NK day!!”. Penny …
