AND AWAY! :D

Fingers crossed I can stay sane for the 2 weeks I'll be away with my fam! :D

But before I go..! I bought a new lens called a Lensbaby Composer! Wahooo! New TOY. And here are some of my recent shots, a sample of many more to come. I predict this holiday will be full of many fun shots. Yay!




And a cute vid I found on Youtube :

MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

May you holiday be full of merriment and joy.

PS: A, fingers crossed you're reading this. Will write you a long one ASAP. See ya after the holidays!

Feeling quite silly today

So here's a thought..


Because I have too much time in my hands and I spent five minutes spinning around in a circle. I'm feeling quite nauseous - Uhh.. not that I'm bulimic. I'm just feeling really sick at the moment, and was so close to puking that this random thought occurred to me..

Why the hell did I ever spin for fun?.. Flashback to 1995 - oh right. Because I was 9.

I'd like to say I wont do something stupid and again, but I'm currently curious what'll happen if I mixed 7up and jam, with a generous helping of cream on top. (Fingers crossed I wont get any bum troubles!)

Tom Basden..!

Eeeee! I love love love his voice. And the songs.. Ahahaha. Listen closely to the lyrics!

Who said fiction is called fiction because it never happens in reality? I posted 'Validation' a while back - I never thought I'd find a story as heartwarming in real life.

Kudos, Nigel Parker.

Ed Byrne : Zemanovaload/A Different Class

Imdb link : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0397753/

Imdb summary : John Davies suffers from multiple obsessive compulsive disorders. When his current model girlfriend leaves him, he decides to replace her with the number 1 babe on planet Earth - Czech model Veronika Zemanova. The film follows his attempts to curb his old obsessions in order to meet his latest obsession - Veronika.

I really enjoyed this movie. The dialogue is fun and witty, I'm enjoying the music, and there's some gorgeous shots. Not the most fantastic movie out there, but it warrants a second viewing. Don't think about it too much, just bask in the silliness and lighthearted fun.

This isn't a review, since I don't think I'm very objective when it comes to Ed Byrne. I like him. He's right up there in my list of stand ups I hope I can see live one day.

Having said that. His new stand up DVD from his 'A Different Class' tour is out, and the verdict - it doesn't disappoint. Ed is charming and witty and a joy to watch. I particularly enjoy his rant about a 'mood' of goths and and 'isobar' of emos who are linked by their depression.. Do I like it more than his 2006 DVD 'Pedantic and Whimsical'? Yes.. I think I probably do.

If you want to read more about the tour, go to his Chortle page. I'm quite shaite at writing reviews these days.
