Yesterday was my second ever, so two in a row is my personal best. Swollen glands suck big time. Going to doctor later today.
Fruits of the world!
Normal and flat peaches Originally uploaded by lou_roo Hey there everyone, I thought I'd share this picture of some heirloom peaches grown locally. They were rather delicious. I first saw them in China with Andrew in 2007 and when we asked a local to translate the name the vendor told us, the local said "flat…
Vulgargrad at Womadelaide, 9 March 2010
Vulgargrad at Womadelaide, 9 March 2010 Originally uploaded by lou_roo This band had us all up dancing like a lot of drunken gypsy thieves. The setting was idyllic, the red sun was sinking behind the stage which itself was framed by the huge Moreton Bay fig trees in Botanic Park. This is my favourite stage…
A kitchen reno picture
We hemmed and hawed over splashbacks and came full circle back to tiles. This time turquoise mosaics. Nice impact with a whole wall of the little guys.
A four day weekend is coming…
Hooray, we have a four-day Easter break coming up.

Furry friend
Jose on couch Originally uploaded by lou_roo I love my cats and the leather couch is great because it doesn't collect cat hair. So leave it to the cheeky buggers to wait for the moment I leave my favourite blanket unattended to discreetly slide across and claim a spot. Ah, the joys of our furry…
Fringe fever – Adelaide is buzzing

As mentioned in a earlier post, Adelaide’s Fringe is second in the world only to Edinburgh, Scotland, and is the largest fringe festival in the southern hemisphere. We…
Twittering, catching up on US politics and just reflecting
I am a twitterer and am probably more suited to the short format. Whether it's finding time for a concentrated bout of writing, short attention span or just my nature, I am not sure. Most of my work day I spend at a screen and keyboard so I am probably a bit averse to logging…
The tyranny of the day job
In itself, my job at the documentation factory is not that bad. I am currently redesigning forms for a credit union using Adobe LiveCycle Designer. "Designing forms, how boring" I hear you say. But, believe me, if you like technology and getting to play with new software, and feel good about process improvements and that…
