Presents are difficult. Monique and I have been going out for almost three years now, which is long enough for me to know that she’s never happy with anything, and I’m useless at picking stuff. We got together on her birthday as well, so that’s double trouble. An anniversary AND a birthday, and Monique has …
I know it’s not great to wear high heels every day, but I just can’t help it – they’re my thing. The more people tell me about how bad they are for my feet, the more I feel the urge to throw caution to the wind and wear them like crazy while I still can. …
I’ve just realised that…I haven’t been to the cinema all year. That’s pretty nuts, although there are reasons why I missed all the big ones. Inedibles 2 was when my friend’s baby was born and I had to look after the dogs for over a week. Everyone said Dark-ish Jaguar could be skipped (and I …
As it happens, opening a boutique nightspot is not as straightforward as you might think. Well, maybe you wouldn’t think it would be that straightforward, but I did – probably because the project has been fully funded by a ridiculous inheritance from my late grandfather. I need to do this right, or else I’ll have …
Terrible stuff, this Hair-Olympics case. An entire team disqualified, Australia going unrepresented, and all because of a media scandal. The team themselves didn’t even do anything except be exceptional at hairdressing; it was the manager who came out right before they were due to fly to the competition, announcing that she couldn’t take the pressure …
They’ve never tackled anything medical on The Great Australian Trade-Off. Suppose that makes sense, because there were SO many medical professionals all around the place this week, even though their products weren’t actually being used on anyone for real. Well, mostly. They usually try to keep the professionals off the camera, but this week they …
Once the robots decide they want a sovereign nation of their own, I’m really not sure what’s going to happen: either humans are going to be forced off the landmasses and will have to live on boats, or the robots will say they want the oceans to themselves and THEY will be the ones to …
Everyone in this house is just a baby. It’s not THAT bad that the shower doesn’t work. I’ve been using it for ages, and I get a great wash out of there being no heat or water pressure. I mean, people are SO precious about stuff nowadays. “Oh no, I need hot water and more …
I know my friends don’t find me very funny, and I’ve accepted that. The other day we were driving around and saw that thing where shoes are hanging on the telephone wire and I said “Hey, check out those shoes, I hope those cables aren’t…LACED with anything.” Nobody laughed. I mean…I laughed, but I have …
OH. MY! Well, I think we’ve somehow ended up at square one, which I’m very happy about. The general consensus seems to be that Week of Our Lives is back on form, before it was before all the weird stuff, and that one about the driving was just a weird concept episode that they’re not going …
