ARGH PAUL HENRY
OK, I know I just blogged this morning, but I felt this was deserving of a post rather than just a tweet. (ATTN Non NZ readers, feel free to switch off right about now!) Thanks to some friends on twitter (Thanks @ColeyTangerina!! you rock as always!) I found this clip of the Paul Henry Show from last night (perhaps read the rest of the post before clicking on the link for clarity sake). The reason I didn’t know about it, is that I choose not to watch this kind of thing. I see why now.

So this latest more geek-related post started off simply enough. I just installed Office 2013 on an old laptop, signed in with my Microsoft Account and was amused to see all my “recent” documents appear as if I’d been using them on that laptop!
Happy (almost) Mother’s Day!
I am a mother, I have a mother as does my husband. Typically, in the midst of the commercialism of living in the Western world, this week (the week before Mother’s Day) our days are filled with the question “What should we do? Should we do it all together? Should we take our mothers our seperately?” etc etc etc
Of course most people would just say, if it’s too much stress just forget it! After all, it is a manufactured holiday created by corporates to sell cards and inane gifts like aromatherapy sticks.
I want to use this occasion to highlight the difference a little thing like geography can make.
My brave friend Nat!
This is a shout out post to my mate Nat!! I’ve know her since we were kidlets and she did an awesome awesome thing today, so I had to skite on her behalf! That’s her to the right there!
