It is happening again
I like to tell people that I watched Twin Peaks when it first screened in NZ when I was 10, which is true, I did. It’s not a show for children, and yet it was my favourite TV show. The soundtrack was the first CD I owned. My sisters sent us taped copies from TV […]

Cleavage
I’ve moved back to Ngaio and I’ve started reading books again. I read more than half of Cleaving in one sitting. I thought I had identified with Julie Powell before in Julie & Julia as she worked a boring job, made friends on the internet, watched a lot of Buffy and got drunk frequently. But […]

Acustomisation
It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that I have been busy. I mean, I did write about it a while ago. But occasionally you get the disconnect between what you say and what people actually pay attention to. It is strange being in an office again, having to sit in an uncomfortable squeaky […]

Dancing like crazy
Right now I kinda wanna tweet “Hey weirdo, my window is open again. At least if you rape me while I’m sleeping I’ll get a proper hard good dicking & stop being a lesbian…” But I can’t.

This post will be written very quickly while I wait for my flatmate to vacate the bathroom or the kitchen or whatever it is that he’s banging around in. Things that I have been up to lately have included achieving all the things that I set out to achieve in my last journal entry. I […]

Surprise!
Despite all my statements on Twitter that I’m gay this month (because yes, you can totally dictate your sexuality like that, weren’t you aware?), mostly June has been a month of birthdays, and that is a fantastic thing, but it has pretty much killed me and my July schedule is looking about as full, and […]

Decades of comparison
Today is my birthday. My family have been awesome, as have my usual Tuesday crew (including the Quiz Master, who smells delicious, but could use some hand cream). My birthday party on Saturday night was an awful lot of fun too. On my birthday last year I woke up in bed with a nice girl, […]

A Life Chair
Today I started my new job. I get the most awesome chair ever. It’s all posh and adjustable and sexy. Yeah that’s right, the chair was the most exciting part of my job, except for all the very interesting conversations that I had with people about interesting things and stuff that’s going to happen. Of […]
