Shoe Hell

10
Sep
2010

It is bad enough that the clog is making a comeback. We survived the (still lingering) peep-toe boot trend. Gladiator sandals are almost bearable. Lately however, the new trend for shoes seems to be super, ridiculously ugly shoes that look like they were designed in a high school art class. The fold-over heels are especially offensive, as are the goat mane ones. I haven’t even featured the moccasin heel! I don’t care if they were featured on Gossip Girl, I … Read More »

Dentists, coffee quitting and a lack of plantlife

06
Sep
2010

It’s been quite a corker of a Monday, starting with a mammoth two hour dentist mission this morning. I wasn’t at all nervous, and as I had barely woken up properly in my rush to get up and be ready and at the dental office by 9am, I was still half asleep. I am lucky enough to have found an awesome dentist who is pretty cute, and also very easygoing and gentle – he explains everything he does, he reassures … Read More »

Fabulously Frivolous Friday!

03
Sep
2010

It’s Friday and the sun is shining, and I slept SO well last night, despite staying up late watching series. Fridays always were my favourite day when I was freelancing – somehow the day is just brighter and more awesome. Lots and lots to do today, and just come back from a meeting. Time to get grafting but before I go, please have a drool over this amazing decor I found online today: My lifelong dream has been to own … Read More »

Mellow Monday

05
Jul
2010

Today has been rather mild and arb, which is great – Mondays suck enough as it is, but shitty ones are the pits. I’m reaching new levels in my caffeine appreciation, and with espresso in the morning and a double Vida latte (and quattro – sigh) at lunch, I was at least vaguely awake today. In addition to Vida fix, I also managed to find a cool new handbag at Xupa Xupa – and it’s big enough to fit in … Read More »

Keeping the balance

25
Apr
2010

I started off this year with just one goal in mind – I was going to do my utmost to cut down on stress, and live a happy and balanced life. Almost five months in, and I’m starting to notice an ever so teeny slip back into my bad habits. I can’t remember when I last went for a run, and while this cold kinda hit me with a vengeance, I can’t entirely blame it on that. Same story with … Read More »

Terrific Tuesday

16
Feb
2010

[VIA Deviant Art] While I won’t deny that this has been one of the longest days, like ever, it’s still been a pretty awesome one indeed. What with being back online at home, some nice refreshing rain and a general good mood, this week is certainly going rather well. Highlights from today include the following… 1. Will be starting something VERY exciting at work, working on a client that does shark stuff. As you can imagine, this is a big … Read More »

Dear TV Programmers

18
Jan
2009

ETV and SABC 3 especially, SABC 2 and 1 to a point. Currently I have the attention span of an ADHD challenged gnat, and bar a few shows and movies, I am battling to get the mindless couch chillax I crave after crunching deadlines, hectic evenings. This is because I can’t sit through the crappy movies and shows that you enforce on me, they are just not cool. This is annoying and does nothing to help my already shattered focus. … Read More »

Friday Musings…

03
Oct
2008

My brain simply doesn’t want to accept that it’s Friday today, this week has flown past at such a rapid rate I’ve lost all track of time. Then again, that’s generally what freelancing does to you. Time means nothing anymore, it’s just hours and I’m either working on doing other stuff, night or day. No real structure, which is kinda nice once you get used to it. Anyway, time warps aside, I’ve been having one of those days. Again. Comments … Read More »

Shiny Happy Tuesday (on the inside anyway)

23
Sep
2008

It’s raining again, but I don’t care. I got some really awesome news on the work front, and things are progressing nicely overall. Hard to believe that it’s coming up for my fourth month as a freelancer – and each month I enjoy it more. What you lose in security you make up for in flexibility, better time management, less stress and much more productivity, and while not everyone enjoys it, I really love it. I really can’t stress how … Read More »

It never rains but it pours

06
Aug
2008

Which is why it’s so important to have a kickass umbrella when the storm hits. My one has bambies and mushrooms on it, and butterflies and spots. Fact: it is impossible to take pictures of something new without getting a cat in the frame The mushrooms and butterflies are all smiling Quick cheerer-uppers today: * I changed the light bulb in my bedroom, which is quite a feat when you get vertigo when you look UP * My Snow, UB40 … Read More »
