you know those comedies that aren’t actually funny…this isn’t one of them

I haven’t been to the actual movies, as in buy and ticket and go to the theatre for a long time. Months….since sometime in 2008 I would be guessing. And I can’t remember the last movie I saw at the theatre so clearly it wasn’t really that memorable. Actually now I come to think about […]

the great office indoor plant experiment of 2009

See this wonderfully shiny and new plant. I bought it this morning at K Mart and will taking it to work on Monday to beautify my office.

Watch, Listen and Singalong: Part 12: Be my echo

Don’t ask me why but this suddenly came into my mind this evening. It’s a favourite memory from growing up watching Sesame Street. I remember watching it and being totally amused by Grover’s attempts to echo. This was still the case this evening but now, many years later, I was impressed with the quality of […]

ticket to ride Thursday

This is one of my (many, many, many )favourites from the Beatles earlyish years. And that’s all I can think of to say about it because my brain is slowly turning to mush through the repetition of work at the moment. But really, come on, it’s the Beatles….nothing else needs to be said.

Wishing Wednesday away

I have just arrived home and looked at my date block to realise that it’s February the 18th today. That’s probably no surprise to anyone reading this post, but now it has dawned on me that I have spent the whole day writing 19-02-09 on every student file, in every database and all other places […]
