Like Pihranna fish fresh to the kill…

*lol* Jesus H Murphy Keeeeeerist! Walk into a place with a pretty lady on your arm and watch your friends fall over each other to hit on her. It’s like watching pihranna shred a cow. *lol* I love you guys, but seriously, have some class next time eh? Otherwise I’m gonna start slapping people. As …

Hmmmm…

Well… I suspect that’s not about to go anywhere fast… However, it does seem that life has some more interesting plans ahead. Not a bad way to cap off a day. Bod’s a bit sore tho. Still not quite ready for a big ride. A couple laps round the seawall and to and from the …

thank the gods for small mercies…

My dinner date for tonight had to push it off to Sunday. Normally it might have been a tad dissapointing, but this is actually gets me outta a bit of a jam. I totally forgot about stuff I had promised to do early this evening for a client. It also buys me time to get …

On top of the additional …

Ohh..

As the sun timidly peeks out over the black shoulder of the mountain, early morning light begins it’s creep across the floor. Inch by inch it makes it’s way toward the unsupecting and helpless form laying face down on the bed. Slowly at first, but with increasing intensity, it turns the once cool night air …

Perky!

Yum…. I have a coffee percolator again. My mom dropped one off as a belated birthday present. I’d been looking for one for years, but so far the acquisition of a percolator had eluded me. It seems that they fell out of favor with appliance manufacturers and an increasingly cheap consumer base. The few companies …

Poor girl.

Decided to get outta the house yesterday and go for a wander. Walked up to commercial to get away from westendia for a bit. late in the afternoon, I bumped into Kelly, Lex, Richard and crew out with Kai to celebrate her birthday. So I grabbed a beer with ‘em. And then dropped by the …
