snowleopard10 on 43 Things

How I did it: I wasn't sure whether to sign up for this goal, as it seemed like a big commitment. There were many occasions when I thought "what a load of crap this is" and almost gave up, but with encouragement and support from my fellow 43Ters it turned out to be enormous fun. It helped to be reminded that it is only supposed to be a first draft. A special mention to Madam Ish for suggesting it and providing some very useful tips towards the end, and… Read how I did it…

How to drink more coffee

It took me

21 days

Apparently this isn't a long enough description of how I did it, so I will have to waffle some more. At home, I drank it out of my trusty crocodile mug. At work, I drank it out of my tasteful china Mackintosh mug. The less said about the DP's mug which has pairs of cows shagging each other on it, the better. Read how I did it…

Daily: Reflect on 5 things for which I'm grateful. (read all 444 entries…)

5th July grats 2 hours ago

I’m grateful for:

being back in the Zoo, much as I love being at my parents’ place it’s good to be home
G, who has just spent the past half hour reading my last year’s worth of postings on this entry… fortunately I hadn’t written anything too mushy about him ;)
the new La Roux album. I have to admit, I’m smitten. She seems to be the bastard love-child of Tilda Swinton and a bat, and can’t be listened to for too long on the ipod due to the risk of aural damage, but the songs are great, and the melancholy appeals to me… _{and in a parallel universe it’s me you can’t resist}
taking Bertrand Russell’s advice to heart, about not worrying about things until you need to (I have a lot to worry about tomorrow but I’ll save it till tomorrow)
some action on the meeting-up with D front. M has sent me another message about this so will reply tomorrow and try to get the ball rolling…
