Wow, where to start? This is all very exciting, and I’m still in shock. As you probably know, Christchurch is hosting the World Bookcrossing Convention in April 2009, and I’m one of the organisers. In 2008, the convention will be in London, and we’ve been trying to come up with ideas for promoting the 2009…
Having a week off sick but not really sick was great, but the downside was when I got back to work on Monday I had to catch up with everything I missed, and as this week was my last before a few weeks of Christmas holiday (HR’s been on my back again about not using…
A couple of weeks ago, I was in Alexandra visiting my family. And my nephew had chickenpox. I’ve now got a headachey fever, and a couple of suspiciously blister-like spots. And I never had chickenpox as a child. Eeek!!! I’ve got a doctor’s appointment this morning – I’m hoping he’ll tell me I’m just being…
No, not *that* kind of pox! But the doctor confirmed I have definitely got chickenpox. And as I’m highly contagious I’m under orders to confine myself to the house and not go back to work until at least Monday. I expect I’ll be getting a lot of reading done over the next few days. I…
I’m about to leave for Wellington for a few days for work. Which means the chances of getting the rest of my NoNoNoNo photos uploaded by the 25 November deadline are slim to none. So I’ll have to cheat and do them when I get back. Rules are for wimps, anyway 🙂
Having a wonderful time, wish you were here 🙂 Actually I’m really enjoying exploring Wellington on my own – although visiting a city with friends is great fun, it’s a different experience being here alone, and I’m doing and seeing things I wouldn’t have otherwise. I haven’t done any real touristy stuff so far this…
I can’t remember now how it came up in conversation, but a while back lytteltonwitch and I discovered that neither of us had ever been over Danseys Pass. Which was all the excuse we needed to plan a trip over there for Show Weekend. As seems to be all too common lately, I was nowhere…
Well, we’re back from our trip down south, have covered an unfeasible number of kilometres in the last three days, successfully (finally) accomplished our mission of delivering the hug box to Otakuu, and generally had a great (but exhausting) time. I’ve got hundreds of photos (literally – I had to buy a new memory card…
I was right – I was getting a cold. It struck with full force on Friday, and I spent the next two days in bed, and have been pretty zombie-like since. Hence the lack of nono entries – I just haven’t been feeling all that creative. It’s annoying, really. I’d had so much I’d planned…
I walked home via Jellie Park tonight. It has its picturesque areas: and not so picturesque: In other news, I think I’m getting a cold 🙁
