Posted in Uncategorized on May 10, 2009 | 8 Comments »
A lot of people have asked for pics of my new short, natural hair (aka “surgery hair”) so I tried to be obliging. Turns out I really can’t hold the camera out in front of me for as long as it takes to get an ok shot. But, I do have Photo Booth! So today [...]

Yes, that was one of the dorkier titles I could have come up with but it made me laugh. I should stop talking now. But not before I let you know that I have a few great clips coming up.

So the May Bank Holiday weekend did not get off to a great start – I got a call at about 4pm on Friday that surgery was being pushed back to the 25th. It’s only two weeks, but it’s two weeks that mess up all of our plans and mean that I really will not [...]

I’m afraid I’ve got nothing for you today. No bad jokes, no witty repartee, not even a YouTube clip that made me smile or confused the hell out of me.
