Just throwing this out there

2015-06-01T12:09:35Z

Does anyone, anyone at all know where I might find a cross stitch pattern of a cruise ship?

pinging azriona because I know you used to do a lot of that.

My mum and dad love going on cruise ships and I would love to do one for a Christmas present for my mum but I can't find any patterns :(

I know times are tough and it's hard to give.

I'm doing a 10km moonlight walk in order to raise awareness and support for people with MS.

I've set a goal of $100, any donation would be greatly appreciated.

Link to my page.

Posting to you live from my shiny new iPad!

It's fun getting reacquainted with Apple.

So any Apps that you want to suggest? Hit me with em!

Pottermore

2012-04-29T04:17:05Z

I signed up for Pottermore. It's kind of fun. I'm really enjoying reading the excerpts and behind the scenes stuff.

My username is KnightGold7870 - it was the best on offer (friend me if you want!).

and I got sorted in Gryffindor. Phew!

So. I am seriously considering buying an iPad 3. Why? Well as I tell Nick - because I want one :D

That's good enough for me :)

Has anyone ever used the RentSmart system? You pay like $7 a week for 3 years and at the end of the time period you either buy it outright or upgrade to the next shiny item. I'm trying to find out what the catch is if they have one - it doesn't appear to charge interest, it's just a rental system.

I have to admit, the very impatient person that I am wants to have an iPad right now.

Uh. I must be the only person in the world that actually likes the new LJ Cut symbol of scissors. It's nice know when I click on a link that is the spoiler cut which opens just that section or the cut link which opens just that entry in the page.

or maybe everyone else just likes to whinge a lot.

I am going shopping tomorrow for a new computer. My laptop is turning itself off every 15 minutes and it's driving me crazy. Especially when I am in the middle of a battle in Marvel Alliance and I lose it because the computer shuts itself off!

So yes. New computer tomorrow. I'm leaning towards a HP Pavilion All-In-One 100-5120a PC. Mostly because it's fairly well priced and won't shut itself down.

I'm on Facebook now!

(and I have no idea what to do!)

Friend me please?

debs7 @ 2012-02-28T15:36:00

2012-02-28T05:36:57Z

Huh.

I am actually considering getting a Facebook thing.

Should I?

I just poured myself a bowl of Crunchy Nut cereal to have as some breakfast, added the milk and sat down to enjoy.

Had my first mouthful and then looked in the bowl to find ANTS! ANTS in my cereal.

Now all I can think of is - did I just eat an ANT. Will I become an ANT now.

It is both horrifying and hilarious.

I finally watched the first episode of the new Sherlock (Australia - still stuck in the dark ages) and I really enjoyed it.

Does anyone want to link me to their reaction posts? I want to be able to read everyone's thought and reactions now :)

Edited for clarification - I mean the new season of Sherlock - Scandal in Belgravia.

Thing the first (7/2/2012 Edition)

I said Yes!

(and then fell off the bridge)

They say it's your birthday!

2012-01-04T10:57:15Z

I've had a really good birthday today. Slept in a bit and then got some really brilliant gifts from Nick. Then had a delicious lunch at Hogsbreath which was free. Went for a lovely walk with Nick around the Redcliffe Botanical Gardens and then loafing around the house enjoying each other.

Also got many phone calls and messages from family and friends!

Under here are pics of the gifts I got from Nick. All are completely fun and nothing I actually really needed as a grown up!

Can't wait to watch these in Blu Ray!

It's been a good day.

Update on Eli

2011-12-01T04:21:32Z

Took Eli to the vet on Tuesday and the vet isn't sure what happened to him but thinks it most likely that he ate something that didn't agree with him. Poor Eli got to experience the vet sticking her finger up his bottom - she said that his intestines were inflamed which I wasn't surprised with the number of times he was going to the toilet.

She gave us this miracle stuff which had 3 benefits - 1. it completely dried him up so he wasn't going every second, 2. gave him electrolytes to restore what he had lost and 3. had antibodies to kill the bacteria that was in his tummy and causing the problem.

I tell you, this is good shit - gave it to him as soon as we got home and it started working almost immediately. By the afternoon I had my beloved crazy, bouncy puppy back.

So yeah - he's not quite back to 100% but he's about 95% there. So happy.

Of course I think the stress of it gave me a whopper of headache yesterday so I'm home today trying to get rid of it.

Eli

2011-11-28T19:46:22Z

It must be the season for gastric related doggy issues. Eli has spent the entire night with a terrible case of the runs, he's got to the point where there are droplets of blood.

Not fun, so not fun.

So I'm waiting for the vets to open and hoping they can squeeze us in so he can get checked out.

Poor baby.

One thing that is kind of annoying me is that I have day 2 of my 2 day course today and I'm not sure if I can make it. Urgh. Bad timimg.

Update: Vet appointment at 10.40am and he didn't finish his breakfast. I am a bit worried.

My home computer security/virus program is currently with Norton. Does anyone recommend anything else that might be cheaper and good?

I'll need it to run on minimum two machines (netbook and laptop)

2011-11-13T23:51:42Z

I spent yesterday doing nothing but playing Batman Arkham City. I love it, it is so awesome.

Dishes, what dishes? Clothes washing, what clothes washing?

Wish I wasn't at work but at home beating up thugs and gliding around Gotham.

2011-10-17T09:54:42Z

At the Chris Cornell concert here at QPAC. I hope it's good!

Can anyone recommend anything non prescription that could help me get to sleep?

Absolutely devastated to find out that Sara Douglass, an inspiring Australian fantasy writer has died aged 54 from ovarian cancer.

She was a lovely person and a brilliant writer.

I might just go reread Battleaxe in her honour.

Long time no see.

I haven't updated this thing is ages!

Quick run down of my life as it currently is:

In my last week of 4 week leave. It's heaven. I don't want to go back.

I have travelled so much for work in the past 6 months. Allegedly there are still a few hospitals we have to do even though I've technically been pulled off the project. That will be fun when I get back.

Also I think we've been nominated for the Premiers Award. I might have to go dress shopping!

Drove up to Cairns to visit Nick's mum and sister. It was fun. The car travelled fantastically.

The doggies are all currently at the vets. Eli and Kit are getting the big snip and Lucy is getting a thing cauterized off her leg. Have also found out she has a congenital problem that has caused her to lose her sight in her left eye and the right one will soon follow *sigh*

Nick and I are crazy mad people who have started getting comic books. and a lot of them. Currently following Fear Itself in the Marvel Universe and have started getting 22 of the new 52 DC books. You can't imagine how expensive that is.

Also trying to store comics in an easily accessible way = impossible in Australia.

Hi.

So excited

2011-05-12T12:10:08Z

Nick and I both just bought a HTC HD7 windows 7 mobile phone. I am so excited. I hope it's a good phone. It looked and felt great in the shop.

Dear Author,

The Doctor has a name - it's The Doctor. It's not Ian and it will never be Ian. Having Rose call him Ian will make me hit the back button so fast it will almost disappear.

Also. Do not call a baby Alonzo. That sucks.

No love,
Me

Sucker Punch... had no punch

2011-04-19T11:49:26Z

Nick and I just came back from seeing Sucker Punch.

It was awful. I want my money back (or Nick's as the case may be).

There was no story. There was very little plot. The character were not engaging. I had no idea what was going on the entire time - I actually got queasy from some of the shots that were so jittery I couldn't focus.

It was just bad. really, really bad.

Nothing at all like I expected. I thought I'd see a film with kick-ass girls but all it ended up being was some 12 year old's wet dream with girls in little clothing firing guns.

debs7 @ 2011-04-13T19:00:00

2011-04-13T09:00:59Z

I'm sitting here all by myself in a bar in Cairns having just ordered my dinner (roast lamb. Yummy) and I just walked past a girl wearing a Doctor Who tshirt.

So awesome.
