Gummis on the pillow

Gummi bears on my pillow at my hotel in Cologne!

Having a good time over here, despite tiredness and a case of food poisoning (?from lunch meats or Chinese in Frankfurt). Kicking along. Walking a lot. Having fun, and taking oodles of photos.

(I saw a tub of red yellow and black gummi bears for Germany world cup and almost bought them for my friend Phil. Think he’d be happy with a couple of packs of pillow gummi bears instead?)

(The Flickr photo set will keep growing as I get reliable interwebs. Enjoy!)

One Day Down

March 4, 2010 · 0 comments

Yes, I got through a day at work this week. I feel rather drained, but some things that helped:

Lava Espresso
A soy latte to start the day from my most referred search term – Lava Espresso, Weston :)

Black Cat
A black cat, up to mischief on the path to work

Purrty
A purrty flower on the way home.

Can I go to bed now?

Started the day with a walk around Holder and Duffy… I think I saw the first Kookaburra since I’ve been in Canberra!

Flowers in Duffy

Finished the day with a run around the bridges with Rish. 5k, and back under 30mins (29:49)! Even with the wind. eeps.

Back under 30 mins!

That ^ is my most viewed picture on my Flickr stream. And it’s not even my ankle.

It’s closely followed by these two:

Crayon Tampons

What's in my bag?

Both from my undergrad days. How colourful ;)

Rainy Day

September 7, 2009 · 0 comments

After us all going on about how great the weather was over the weekend, and how great the sunshine made us feel (I even got a bit pink on Saturday sitting out in the sunshine!), the rain came last night. Oh well. At least we got a run in yesterday – about 6km from ANU to the boat hire at the lake and back, only walking the downhill parts – to save my aging joints :p

Daffodils

My body is so sore after yesterday’s jog though. My core from holding me upright, mostly. Good though, right? We all know that area could do with a bit of tightening up :p

Make a Wish

Make a wish

I asked one of the kids I saw today “So, if you had a magic wand, what would you magic up?” (We were reading I’m green and I’m grumpy, and were on the fairy page)
His answer was more games for his Nintendo Wii.. then he proceeded to list all the games he already had, one included Sonic in the title, so I was pleased that Sonic was still alive and kicking. Some days I have great conversations with the kids.

We then moved onto the page with the witch, and I wondered what evil things she might wish for or magic up, but we got stuck at toads…

What would you magic up?

On the gate at work this morning… :)

?A daily grind

May 2, 2009 · 0 comments

Okay, here’s one for Huong :)

Tracey, over at _sh1ft.org is promoting doing a Day in the Life which is making me reminisce about the “Daily Grinds” we used to do where we would photograph our perfectly boring days, and perhaps find each others’ interesting for the food we ate or perhaps the fact that we were all very boring uni students just in different parts of the would…

This one doesn’t have a restricted date to do it on – just sometime in May. Anyone else want to give it a go with me? I’m not sure what date will be interesting yet, or if I’ll choose one that’s ever so boring :)

Fruit Tingles

February 16, 2009 · 0 comments

So Saturday night was Spent in Sydney for a high school friend’s 27th birthday. Let’s get over that since he’s turning 27, the rest of us will be shortly. Great views of the Harbour Bridge, good company, and probably too many fruit tingles.

IMG_5036 IMG_5078

Fruit Tingle Recipe:
2 parts vodka
1 part blue curacao
1 part raspberry cordial
top up with lemonade

Divide among glasses.

Repeat this until someone (Phil this time) is vomiting purple.

Good times (yes, it was so high school)
