Tag: PASH!

• #raumatirumble

  Sometime around September last year I started desperately searching the internet for a house we could rent for New Year’s Eve, as the beloved bach in Waiterere had been sold. Astonishingly, I managed to find one – in Raumati. It had six bedrooms, three bathrooms and was across the road from the beach. And we […]

• Getting back on that horse

  You know how maybe you’re a horse rider, and you’re pretty good at it, and you’ve ridden a lot of horses, and then one throws you, and you don’t know how the fuck you’re ever going to get back into the saddle, or if you even want to? And in fact, you kind of start […]

• Reclaiming my empire

  The Yaz is gone, and I am me again. It is a glorious feeling. That doesn’t mean that I didn’t spend a large part of last night bawling my eyes out, but let’s get to that bit when we get to it. I had a quiet week at work, which was well-needed because I’ve been […]

• Goodbye Crappy Tuesday

  There is going to be an immense amount of whining and wailing and weeping in this entry, so if you’re not down with that, go read this instead. Caution: contains insanely adorable children in tutus. Things have taken a swing for the worst for me lately. I know it is at least partially related to […]

• Not mad, just bad

  I can’t sleep right now because the wind is too loud, so I might as well write my journal, yes? Let me start with pictures of cupcakes. The lovely Emma came over to lend me her neat handwriting expertise, and together we assembled these beauties: If you click the photo, you’ll get to my flickr […]

• Operating under GMT

  My ambition was always to use the time between jobs to come off the zopiclone, so for the past month I was gradually cutting down my dosage. I’ve talked before about how my shrink has gone AWOL (as Shirley put it the other day “trust you to get a crazy shrink”) so I can’t get […]

• Foreskin’s lament

  I am no longer a public servant. This means that I can therefore say whatever I want. Because oh yes, I had totally been holding back before, right? I have been without a job for 11 days now. I’m applying for things, networking through Girl Geek Dinners, booking a trip to Vanuatu. In total white […]

• It never rains but it pours

  Last week was totally exhausting. Actually, the week before that was exhausting as well. But I can say quite definitely that it also contained one of my top career highlights so far, so that’s pretty awesome, right? Should we mix it up and go topically, or go chronologically like usual-ish? I guess if we go […]

• An open letter to the organisers of Webstock

  Dear people who made Webstock happen: I think I love you. Can it please be Webstock every day? Even if we would all die from over-knowledging, over-caffinating and over-drinking? I got home today sometime after 5pm. It’s been a hell of a week. I will update more when I have napped. The Innovation Workshop Day […]

• On & Off Weeks

  Oh boy, have I ever been busy! Where to start? Perhaps with photos. On the 14th of July, Bart had a party at his house, which was Rubik’s Cube themed. We were instructed to dress in all the colours of the cube and try to swap with others to end up in just one colour. […]
