• Oh my god, trauma!

  Friday, February 29th, 2008

  So, had plans for my weekend all laid out and have had to cancel the lot of them.
  Why?
  Because I just checked my lip (which, admittedly, has been feeling Not Quite Right all day), and I was greeted by the sight of a developing cold sore.
  *insert a 5 minute long endless stream of expletives*
  Not happy, Jan. [...]

• Lazy-ass douchebaggery

  Thursday, February 28th, 2008

  Most of you (or all of you) know that I run a food blog, which is my main blog, this just being a venting hole. While running it gives me lots of joy, there are some times that I just want to shut the whole thing down and go running for the hills.
  One of the [...]

• Cold turkey assessment

  Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

  Right, well this whole quitting cold turkey thing isn’t going to work - I managed to distract myself from having a bed time cig last night but was cross all evening, and refraining from my morning one has left me trapped away from polite society as I have a very strong temptation to bite anyone [...]

• Masochism and a tub of hot wax

  Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

  I was right - not having the regular after dinner cigarette is driving me crazy. I went for a long walk to try and get rid of the cravings but all it did was increase the itchniness. How on earth *did* I manage to quit last time? I certainly know how I managed to cut [...]

• 19 down, 6 to go

  Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

  This is ridiculous.
  I bought my current deck of cigs (Benson & Hedges Smooth, 25pk) over the weekend and I’m already down to 6. I’m smoking too much again.
  Time to attempt the quit…again. Last deck, will save the remaining 6 for emergencies, then not buy anymore.
  Ooooh, this is gonna hurt.

• To you, my readers

  Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

  Though this blog rarely gets comments, I know that there are a few folks who like following my random and barely literate blurtings on this blog, so this is an invitation:
  I’ve turned off the requirement for names and emails to be included with comments, so I’d like to invite you to leave an anonymous comment. [...]

• Sunday Night Lights

  Monday, February 25th, 2008

  Went up to the top of the Dandenongs on Sunday night for an attempt at a photo shoot of the city lights…discovered to my dismay that my lack of practice outside the realm of food photography in the past few months has resulted in my losing my ability to work the camera outside my kitchen [...]

• SUCH a girl!

  Friday, February 22nd, 2008

  Driving to the shops to do some grocery shopping, I’m coasting down a parking aisle and
  “OH MY FUCKING GOD IT’S A HUNTSMAN AND IT’S CRAWLING DOWN MY MOTHERFUCKIN’ WINDSHIELD! AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!”
  Cue slamming on breaks (thankfully it wasn’t much of a deal as I was the only car in the aisle and traveling at about 10 kph), [...]

• A public letter to a wanker

  Friday, February 22nd, 2008

  Oh my GOD! People are freakin’ hilarious! But I suppose that by signing up to OkCupid, I was exposing myself to a variety of crazies! What I think is hilarious is that people take it all so fucking seriously! Puh-lease! So what if I don’t reply to your message or chat? Can’t you take a [...]

• Oh for FUCK’S SAKE

  Thursday, February 21st, 2008

  You’re not an angsty teenager, you’re an adult, so get over it and grow the FUCK up already. Honestly, what is with oversensitive whingers who wallow in negativity and expect complete strangers to give a rat’s ass?
  In case it isn’t obvious, I am VERY family-centric, the rest of the world comes after my immediate biological [...]
