Just to teach you a lesson, I won't post a comment..............oh, oops! Wed, 31 Mar 2010 09:43:57 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/updateless/#IDComment64986747 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/moving-on/#IDComment64986648 Sounds like everything is going well for you Slink. Great news that you are over halfway through your course - there is nothing like having the end in sight, no matter how much you have enjoyed a course :) Congrats on the new job too, that is a huge pay jump. Have you started planning how you are going to spend all your extra money yet? How about inviting us all around for a party?? :) Wed, 31 Mar 2010 09:42:56 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/moving-on/#IDComment64986648 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/back-to-the-primitive/#IDComment62200933 Thankfully I haven't had to use dial up for about 5 years and I know it's going to drive me insane if I have to use it in the future! But connection is connection, and just look at what you have done with it :) Good to hear from you, however it comes about. As Mr Moon said - What's the latest?

Plus I've got family in Hobart, Canberra and Sydney so I'm sure they will come in handy too :) Tue, 9 Mar 2010 10:57:56 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/one-step-closer/#IDComment60619781 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/howd-your-weekend-go/#IDComment60357137 Isn't that typical, just when I finally have something to post about, you go and post too :) Congrats on the arrival of your first full blood nephew. I notice that his name is strangely close to yours..........do you think there is something in that? :) Mon, 8 Mar 2010 11:02:56 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/howd-your-weekend-go/#IDComment60357137 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/quickees/bbq-conversations/#IDComment57068451 I don't know if that is a sign that I should attend one of your BBQs when I have a chance or that I should avoid them at all costs! Tue, 16 Feb 2010 12:41:57 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/quickees/bbq-conversations/#IDComment57068451 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/cougar-hunting/#IDComment54343370 Yes, but technically speaking any female over 13/14 could be a mum (with some exceptions) so not such a big deal :) Fri, 29 Jan 2010 11:38:21 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/cougar-hunting/#IDComment54343370 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/cougar-hunting/#IDComment54060315 I say if you are ok with it, no problem. My dad and stepmum are 11 years apart. 10 years isn't that much, not enough that she could be your mum..........lol Wed, 27 Jan 2010 10:41:16 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/cougar-hunting/#IDComment54060315 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/cougar-hunting/#IDComment53780069 OMG Slink - how do these weirdos find you? You really haven't had much luck in that area! Hopefully the cougar hunting helped take your mind off it all :) Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:22:08 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/cougar-hunting/#IDComment53780069 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/teaching-connor-all-the-good-stuff/#IDComment53335819 Oooh, interesting. I wonder if they will go the 'guest appearance' route? I have to say, I'm never sure about remakes of great series but I've been hooked into the new Knight Rider series so 21 Jumpstreet has a chance.

Might want to look into that..... :) Thu, 21 Jan 2010 11:24:50 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/teaching-connor-all-the-good-stuff/#IDComment53155926 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/teaching-connor-all-the-good-stuff/#IDComment53155823 You got the blowfish trick from 21 Jump St? I learnt that trick as a kid too but I don't remember it being on 21 Jump St...... but that could just be my bad memory :) Man I loved that program though - Johnny Depp, Peter DeLuise. I couldn't understand why we didn't have gorgeous undercover cops at our school. But now that I think about it, probably because I went to an all girls' school!!!

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 11:13:24 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/in-the-kitchen/#IDComment52010350 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/summer-catch-up-itunes/#IDComment51402303 The CSI games are pretty good. I've played them on PC, DS and Wii now and all are good. I think the Wii version is the best - lots more interactive. But that might just be because it is a newer medium so they have improved the game since the first ones were brought out. CSI is definitely one of the better investigative games. I got Sherlock Holmes and Women's Murder Club games for the DS for Christmas and finished each of them within a day of starting. The Women's Murder Club game was very basic and basically told you exactly what you had to look for - much like a 'spot the item in the picture' game - nothing very hard about that! Sherlock was better - lots of puzzles and deductions. A bit like Professor Leyton (1 & 2), although Professor Leyton is the best of them so far - takes me a few days of fairly solid playing to complete them. Probably because of the brain strain with all the puzzles :) Sun, 10 Jan 2010 18:49:07 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/summer-catch-up-itunes/#IDComment51402303 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/summer-catch-up-itunes/#IDComment50654586 Sounds like you have had a great Christmas/New Year break. My New Year's was even more low key than yours. Wayne was working so I spent an hour doing yoga with my new Wii (Chrissy pressie from my man!) then watched about 10 episodes of House (season 3) and started playing CSI: Hard Evidence on the Wii - all supplimented with 1 glass of Kahlua and milk and half a glass of wine. I don't even have a pregnant wife to use as an excuse!

I video skype'd my family on New Year's Day and my brother took great pride in showing off his suntan/burn/peeling. All I am going to say is - roll on April.......... :) Tue, 5 Jan 2010 10:35:05 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/happy-new-year/#IDComment50444503 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/what-to-blog-about/#IDComment50329366 I did try to comment last week but I'm not logged in at home and couldn't remember my login details and so gave up. (although strangely enough I had to log in this morning at work and it worked first time withe details I tried at home last week - so maybe it was a sign........) Anyway! I'm glad you are going to keep writing about you - it's the best way to keep up with the F-M's :) So keep it up! Mon, 4 Jan 2010 13:03:05 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/what-to-blog-about/#IDComment50329366 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/ride-like-a-leper/#IDComment47853895 Thanks Gert (ooops, I mean Mr Moon!). My birthday was a bit of a non-event this year anyway. Wayne worked from 7am until 4am the next day so we went to a show in the West End on Saturday night (which we were 10 mins late for) and we were supposed to go for dinner after but Wayne was coming down with a cold and the show was longer than expected so in the end we just went home! So my birthday dinner officially became the McD's we ate in the car earlier that afternoon :) Apparently I'm getting a raincheck on the birthday dinner, but since I'm still the proud owner of a raincheck for our Anniversary Dinner back in March, I'm not holding my breath on it happening before 2010! As for how I spent my actual birthday - I was woken up by a phone call from my dad just before midday. Then I lay in bed watching TV until about 2pm. Got up when the hunger pangs were starting to turn my stomach inside out and spent the rest of the day watching House Season 2 on the computer with a bag of popcorn. A pretty good way to spend a birthday :) Fri, 18 Dec 2009 16:19:40 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/jour/ride-like-a-leper/#IDComment47853895 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/quickees/cheap-lounge-suite/#IDComment47406296 I saw this story on the Yahoo website this morning but couldn't find the Trade Me ad so I'm glad you linked to it here. Just been giving the Pommy boyfriend and Aussie friend a lesson on Kauri and why it is so expensive :) Wed, 16 Dec 2009 13:32:04 +0000 http://www.thegeekmythologies.com/site/quickees/cheap-lounge-suite/#IDComment47406296
