A Good Quote
On Studio 60 At The Sunset Strip there was a good quote from Harriet, the devout Christian actress, when being interviewed by the journalist doing a story on the show. She was explaining how her mother had cancer and died when she was 15. Before she died Harriet asked her mum why she never ask…

Done, Dusted and DRAINED
I am so very tired. Just the thought of having to do anything that requires me to move hurts. I think I will be going home in 20 minutes and going to bed for a nap! In completely related news, the reason I’m so bloody tired is we got up at 4AM on Wednesday morning…

T Minus 5 Days
In 5 days I will be in Croydon applying for my Settlement Visa. I have everything prepared and am familiar with the process having been there before so am not nervous (yet!). I never like the idea that someone could be having a bad day and decide something isn’t good enough and reject it. At…

Yay For Summer!
Summer has finally arrived in merry old England! This past weekend was absolutely wonderful, sunny, warm, gorgeous! It was so nice that I was actually in a mood to get outside and do some yardwork!

Tell Me All Your Thoughts On God
I’m currently reading The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. By “currently” I mean in between other books (like re-reading HP books before film and new book) and when I have time and/or feel like reading. I’ve been “currently reading” it for a while now! ANYWAY! It’s very thought provoking in my case. I used to…

Exhale less please.
So I went to Live Earth in London this past Saturday. The music was bloody brilliant! The message was good, but I don’t think it made the impact it should have. I could be wrong though, time will tell I guess.

‘Bout Time For An Update
I have 5 days until my driving test for my UK license! I’m really hoping I pass the first time, it’s not very common in the UK. The test centre I will be taking my test from only has a pass rate of 49%! My prior driving experience will definitely come in handy, but I…
