Views from an office window

March 4th, 2008 | 3 Comments | Posted in blogs, life

I am a bit stuck for what to write about today, but since I signed up to NaBloMoPo I have to post something.  So in keeping with the theme of lists, here is a list of things I can see from my office window;

1. Pigeons, and lots of them, walking around in the sunshine

2. A group of people sitting in a circle on the grass eating lunch

3. A garbage bin that is so full that rubbish has flowed onto the ground around it

4. An old looking bike leaning against a sign (I’m surprised no one has stolen it)

5.  A toddler making a quick getaway from his mother who is carrying his younger sibling

6. People sitting on the benches, smoking.

Not really that much going on outside my window.

In other unrelated news, the February listings have come out for Top 100 Australian Women’s Blogs.  I have fallen from 76 to 79.  I really need to get out there and start promoting my blog.

Things About Me

March 1st, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in life

I have joined up to the Monthly NaBloPoMo where I have to write a post every single day. Seriously, why do I get myself into these situations? Anyway, the theme of this month’s NaBloPoMo is lists. You don’t have to write a list everyday, but the theme is there is provide inspiration. So I thought on the first day of NaBloPoMo, I would do a list.

Things About Me

1. I am a lesbian

2. I am overweight (but I am working on that)

3. I hate clothes and shoes shopping. It is my version of hell.

4. If I must buy clothes, they are usually brought from the men’s section. This way I can guarantee I can fit into them, my clothes won’t have frilly crap on them, be pink or cost twice as much.

5. I love sci-fi TV shows - Firefly, Buffy, Doctor Who etc.

6. I love TV shows that make me think - House, Law & Order: SVU etc.

7. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in which I majored in Genetics. I have done absolutely nothing with it. I also failed the genetics component of it, but kicked ass in anatomy, pathology and forensic osteology.

8. I did three years of a Bachelor of Edcuation (Primary Ed) degree even though I hated teaching from day one.

9. I am a fully qualified veterinary nurse.

10. As you can probably tell, I love learning about different things.

11. I also never seem to stay in the same profession for more than 5 years.

12. I have fibromyalgia and possibly hypermobility syndrome. Thanks to these lovely conditions, I had to give up vet nursing.

13. I now do tech support for a digital marketing technology solutions provider. No one outside of the industry understands what I do. Actually probably very few people in the industry really understands it either. The simplest explanation is that I make online ads work, but even that isn’t a good description of my job. But at least people understand it.

14. I spent my childhood doing musical theatre and pantomines. Yes, I was a bratty child actor. Fear me.

15. I still have no idea what I want to be when I grow up.
