Cheap Therapy

Seeing as it’s coming up on two months since my last reduxion…

• Grubby nails garden blitz. Most thankful for all those who attended (and especially Derek and Alex for the gate hanging!)
• Swancon, which I may cover in a separate post
• Star Trek, also subject of a separate post.
• Wolverine, not worthy of a separate post really…
• Deville’s Pad, very cool. As an indicator of their clientele, they have 7 different sorts of Absinthe on tap. Not sure what their Wednesday childen’s sessions would be like though
• Nick’s housewarming and some enjoyable random discussions
• Sheldon’s X0th
• Mikey’s bucks night. Followed by a Mother’s day during which I felt very seedy. Thanks to FoG for the lift
• Shiny new server with G5 goodness. Blogs still go offline if I turn BOINC on though Unification of photos and music continuing.
• Skip and I laid down a batch of Grolsch clone. Just got to work out when we can bottle it
• Puggle’s birthday. He’s now getting pocket money. Unprompted, he spent it on stuff he could share with his sister. I’m so proud! Also has a bike now.
• Bilby is talking up a storm, and developing her stubborn streak.
• Cygnet has worked out crawling, and can now go fast. Now pulling himself up so he can creep along the furniture before running after his siblings…
• A great turnout at the dogcow/MacGeeks dinner, with some new faces and iPhone discussion
• No more daylight saving, at least until the Government decides to try it on us again to see if we’ve changed our minds yet
• The grubby nails day has brought forth vegetables! Now deploying marigolds to keep some of the pests at bay hopefully.
• We have worms too. This week, chickens!
• Today, spent watching Puggle discovering Jellyfish in the Swan (usually by poking sticks through them). His playmate is about to head off touring around Australia for a year. Brief tour of homes of the rich and famous as we tried to work out where in Freshwater bay we were actually meant to be meeting. My old stomping grounds. Dolphins lazily cruising.
