Skeletons and skincare

As always it’s been a while since I last posted on here. Still a lot of monotonous waiting for treatment. But, we actually did some stuff recently, so here it is. Not only did I manage to see Jurassic World: Dominion in the cinema with my husband (and fall...

Weird time

I know I should write on here a lot more often than I do, I do most of my updates on Fanhouse and Discord now because I’m tired and it’s easier to make shorter updates. But man, there is a lot going on at once. It turns out I...

Movies to see once in your life

I’m going to try to cap this at 200 movies, which will probably get harder as time goes on because lots of good films will come out. At the time of writing I’m only at 140 movies, so I will come back and update this in the future, no...

Plant time again

It’s always risky cutting your own hair with the ponytail method (and I accidentally gave myself a fringe again) but the weight of my hair was bothering me. He’s so pure of heart. Pickle has started aggressively coming for my lunch salads and walking all over my keyboard about...

Pouches and keys

I could no longer resist the urge to sort out my purse and organise things into pouches. I did try this briefly in the past but became disenchanted with the way I did it, and eventually wound up with a bunch of loose stuff in the bottom of my...

Filofax redux

10 years ago I had a Filofax. A bit of green paper from it is what I first wrote my phone number on for Will, and he still keeps the same bit of paper in his wallet, even though the number itself has long ceased to exist. It was...

Setting up a tank for a Giant African Land Snail

Visitors from Google: don’t forget to check out this post about setting up an improved tank.   Although I haven’t had my snail Jupiter for very long, I’ve just put together his big tank for him to grow into, so I’m doing a post about that in case anyone...

More about our Giant Land Snail

It’s been almost 3 weeks now since we brought home our GALS. It’s a slightly long story as to how we ended up with him so I’m gonna skip that. I might do a post about caring for Giant African Land Snails when I’ve had him for longer. It...

Giant Land Snail!

Just a quick post to tell you about our new baby! He’s a Giant Land Snail although is currently not very giant because he’s still a baby. I am alarmingly emotional about him. We named him Jupiter (or Joop-Joop casually) because his shell looks a bit like the surface...

My weird hobby: Playing Tomb Raider levels backwards

This is very much explained by the title of the post, but perhaps could use further elaboration. On the original 1996 Tomb Raider game, it is possible to play some levels in almost-reverse order, avoid trigger points for enemies, and other such things. In the last few years I’ve only...
