twitter

has anyone been playing with twitter? i’m going to experiment with it. am playing with the latest update bit in the right column so keep an eye on that. u can also get rss from my twitter page – i think u can rss or add as a friend so u get IM or phone updates when i update (though that just sounds like it would be annoying).

update: it seems i can update via IM, on the web and am now going to test sms. this will be v cool when we are in nz!

how cute are these?

found this off someone’s blog recently – flying pig – paper animation kits. check out the reindeer preparing for xmas eve. they have several u can just download, print and assemble. how very cool!!

bush fires

when i left the apt this morning there was a heavy smog and a strong burning smell – all due to bush fires that are in country victoria. i’ve never seen anything like it before. the smell was like what you’d expect if a house on the same block had burnt down. not hundreds of miles away.

complete slacker

i have been ignoring you. recently i’ve been swamped at work (you know how you always check personal email at least over lunch? well i haven’t even been able to do that). then i’ve either come home to watch tv, or gone to pilates or gone out and by the time i get home, i really really want to read your emails but the choc almond ice cream in the fridge or sleep is winning the attention race. i have (are you sitting down?) gone a good 3 days w/o even checking email several times over the last few weeks.

and right now i’m gonna decorate my xmas tree and listen to xmas music (btw, aimee mann has a new xmas cd. pretty good!!!)
