I’ve actually been putting off blogging for the past week or so because everything I’ve want to write about has been job-orientated, and I didn’t want to go and get myself dooced before I’ve even been given the job. Anyway, I think it’s safe to say that I had two interviews for new jobs all… read full entry »

Because it’s been a while since I’ve posted a completely pointless plug-only post, and you are probably fed up of my nose-picking post with associated mental-imagery. Threadless.com: Scrabble t-shirt — this is why I wish I had a decent card, instead of just a crappy British debit card that they don’t accept so please stop… read full entry »

This is the best thing I’ve read all year: Picking your nose and eating it is one of the best ways to stay healthy, according to a top Austrian doctor. There’s medical evidence for this, I swear: “Medically it makes great sense and is a perfectly natural thing to do. In terms of the immune… read full entry »

I was going to take part in the 2005 National Novel Writing Month but dropped out a week into November after realising I had far too much on (what with job apps, etc.) and yet have still been receiving the NaNoWriMo e-mails: I’m too lazy to untick a box on the appropriate page.

I can’t have a crochet hobby without some wool. Pretty obvious statement really, but a good point all the same. I went surfing for wool on the Internet yesterday with the preconception that I’d be able to find a website, specify whether I wanted thick or thin, choose a colour and have it sent. I… read full entry »

I’ve been crocheting basic blanket squares for as long as I can remember. My mum would start me off and I’d crochet and crochet. I stopped for a while when I discovered the Internet, and only recently picked up again; in an attempt to finish a blanket I started that was supposed to be ready… read full entry »

I’ve implemented the A List Apart style switcher after much debating on the benefit of themes. I’ve come to the conclusion that they’re a good idea. There’s a new one, which I knocked together in a few minutes and haven’t really tested yet (so bear with any errors). Anyway, this means that I’ll be implementing… read full entry »

You know, it’d be really nice if when someone steals my images and chunks of my CSS, they’d at least make the effort to do something nice or creative with them instead of just renaming the image to something slightly different and taking my site name out of my shitty link button. She even copied… read full entry »

If you’ve got a spare 40 seconds or so, I would appreciate it if you could answer a few questions! Firstly, go take a peek at my past layouts page. Out of those featured (because not all of my previous layouts are there) and this one, which is your favourite? And if you remember a… read full entry »
