I don't think I have anything to add to this.
So, our beloved Nanny, Fran Drescher, believes that she was abducted by aliens when she was in junior high.
Her proof of this is not only her unwavering belief but also the small scar on her hand - an identical scar can be found in the same place on her ex-husband’s hand, whom shares the belief that he, too, was abducted by aliens as a junior high student.
“You know, it’s...

Toxic decisions.
Due to the sheer force of the online backlash, politicians have decided that siding with SOPA and PIPA is pretty much toxic for their election dreams.
“Behind the scenes, Hill staffers from both sides of the aisle confirmed to TPM that the entire piracy debate had become so ‘toxic’ that virtually no lawmakers were likely to be ready to re-engage it anytime soon.” - Carl...

Sydney Adventures: Day 2 - Harry Potter Exhibition
(via okay-awesome)
After a long day of exploring, we started off our second day a little later than the first - partly because we had had such a long first day, but mostly because our Harry Potter Exhibition ticket was for entrance at 1pm. Once awake, we dawdled along somewhere off George Street before we found ourselves sitting by the corner window of a little French sandwich cafe.
We...

Sydney Adventures: Day 1
(via okay-awesome)
Last Wednesday, Stefanie and I jetted off to Sydney for our very first adventure for the year. It was the first time we had ever travelled interstate together, it was the first time we had ever stayed in a backpackers hostel, it was the first time we had gone anywhere relatively unplanned, and it was the first time I had ever been to Sydney.
And much to true avail, upon...

Absentee notice.
So, you may have noticed that I’ve been.. well, completely absent from the blog in recent weeks.
We’ve finally moved into our new house and given up the keys to the old house, which means that I can no longer sit in an empty room and use the internet. As the new house doesn’t have internet yet, I am left absolutely isolated from the online world.
It’s a sad, sad day when...

you’re crying out for help and i hear you - i hear you even when you haven’t said a word, even when you can’t hear the pleas yourself - but there’s only so much i can do. i’d do it all for you if i could.. but i can’t. i just can’t. i can’t figure out a way to make that happen and take it all away from you (though i’ve tried and tried and...

Sorry Suri, but I have a new favourite blog. →
I didn’t think it would happen so soon, but I have indeed fallen in love with another blog.
Advanced Style is a fabulous website full of reminders that beauty doesn’t fade if you take pride in who you are, and love and care for yourself.
Photos, videos, fashion and health tips and more - all from stunning and inspiring older women.
Yep, I’m definitely in love.

Dear reader,
brain-food:
You are absolutely beautiful. Everything about you, beautiful. I love the way your hair is unruly and sometimes covers your eyes. I love your smile. I adore your skin, the color it bares, and every mole and freckle that accessories it. Your laugh is contagious and despite how shy you think you are, it doesn’t hold back how much you light up any room you walk into. There will always...

This is what I love to see.
I really just needed any excuse to use that amazing, high-quality gif.

Oh, you tease! But I’m glad Jim will be coming back. He’s one of my favourite parts of Supernatural.

I've been busy doing not much at all.
Last week, Frankie and I watched One Day, under the impression that we were in for a feel-good - wrong. As lovely as it looked and as enchantingly told as it was, sadness lingered more than anything once it had finished. And to be honest, it was an unfair type of sadness that we both could have done without.
That said, I loved the way the story was created on screen and the two leads, Anne...

Oh, I’m sorry, did I say that Eva and I were going to Sydney next week in that other post? I meant to say that the two of us are going to Sydney! Yep, you heard right!
We’re flying over so we can go to The Exhibition and adventure around the place for four days.
It’s going to be bloody brilliant!
I’m thinking that these should be our top five items to pack (or not to...

Just a quick run-down.
I don’t even know how to begin to explain what I’ve been up to; the past fortnight seems to have passed in quite a blur of activity. What have I been doing? Why, I’m so glad you asked!
Frankie has been a bit under the weather, so I spent a few days by her sickbed, preparing cool cloths like a pro. We also watched (or rewatched, in my case) New Girl. She loved it as much as I did...

long overdue.
it’s been so long since i’ve written a proper post. since we’ve moved into the new house we haven’t had internet and it’s so hot in the old house that i just can’t bring myself to sit down and focus on writing something coherent.
maybe i’ll work on something in the little black book some time..
anyway, i just thought i’d drop in, apologise and...

Dear everyone I know,
If you could all just take a look at the list of recommended books behind the ‘Read more…’ and spend the next few birthdays and Christmases investing in this glorious collection for me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Yours with much love and— no, that’s not drool! .. Look, it’s a great list, okay?!
Beautiful!
Thanks, raphmike!
