it’s been a quiet week or so.
HA!
Sax on the streets on V-day, plus raw fish.
As you may have seen elsewhere, me and AHS went off shooting students (a mix of cross-dress and under-dress(-ing(k)*)).
Awesome fun, will definitely do it again next year.
Successfully avoided Valentine’s day yuk (and yaks (and yams)) by having take away sushi.
Tasty, very.
How much beef would a beefchuck chuck if the fire was flippin’ hot?
Went to Jeremiah’s for flamey chuck** as a pre birthday bash for the Parfait.
Was lovely.
Biffing of days
Tried extra hard to be extra nice (and not my usual orrible self) to Parfait on her Bday last week.
Got her a collection of rectangular presents.
Some of which involved Neil Gaiman (but not the wrestling thereof).
We went out to Tokara for posh nosh.
Food was, as usual, awesome. Exploding Tastebuds (.com) .
Unfortunately, prices have gone up a fair bit (from already pretty high) and the staff were a bit daft.
And ever so slightly patronising. Although that may have also been a feature of the daftness.
Upcoming pool party warning: this Saturday at our place.
Usual drill: bring booze and snackables; we’ll provide more of both.
Ooh, get you!
Friday mid-afternoon we trotted off to Slanghoek for a weekend of camping with Jo’s company.
Was very cool.
We had a luxury tent that was basically a chalet, but with canvas walls instead of brick.
Awesome views - the place is at the bottom of long but shallow-ish valley.
Got to play with my new camera some more.
Bucketloads of wine and food and fun.
Very relaxing.
Cat Drama aka Grumpy Pussy aka Feline Frolics
Managed to call in The Doc and The Evil Landlord at short notice to feed and drug cats over the weekend (see above) - thanks guys!
Took ChuChu (sometimes called Meep) and Puppy (sometimes called Sproing) to the vet to get their slightly overdue shots.
Puppy’s having trouble with his legs, so the vet gave us some antibiotics which were mostly successfully administered.
Took Puppy back again yesterday. Vet kept him for the day to stick drains in his chest (for an abscess that had appeared) and to X-ray his legs. Went back in the evening to pick up Puppy. Apparently he’s fine, but we’ve got some more drugs for him. Woo.
Sitting waiting to pick up Puppy and overhearing a conversation about dog food renewed my interest in buying more domain names.
Sadly, lactatingbitches.com is already taken.
Worky work work
Crazy busy with work for Jo’s company.
Off to see them twice next week for two training sessions.
Teaching the new staff how to use Excel and how to use the stuff I made for the department.
Ho hum.
At least it keeps me off the streets.
