Antoine is so sensitive about his cooking skills. Really, I should have known not to point out his error to him; I’m sure he wouldn’t have noticed if the oats were a bit tangier than usual. It’s really not a big deal. It is to him, though, and now I have to listen to him …
I will admit, I haven’t looked much into solar power. That’s for a variety of reasons. For one thing, our family are terribly allergic to the sun, so we generally avoid the topic altogether. Also, we use very little power in our castle-mansion, mostly preferring to light the place with torches and candles, and spending …
I’ve mentioned a few times that our garden is mostly looked after by Melbourne professionals hired by Dad to fly up and tend to everything. Well, I’ve never told you about my corner. It’s completely out of the way, almost down the side of the house, but I asked Dad if i could have a …
Oh gosh, cat videos. Get out of my life! I love them so much, but you watch one on Me-Straw and it’s like you’re falling down a rabbit hole. It’s even worse when you discover one channel with a million videos, and then that’s the afternoon done. There I am watching Tabby Crawshaw shredding a …
Canberra is objectively the best place in Australia to live – well, probably, or at least possibly. I know this because I’ve lived here my whole life, and I went to Melbourne for uni for like six months, and sometimes I see news stories about things going on elsewhere, so… yeah. Take Melbourne, for instance, …
Well, we finally got our new office interior installed, and now we’re getting a new one. There was a considerable mix-up in the communication chain, since I’ve checked the order form and yes, it does indeed say that we ordered dragon-themed wallpaper. The installation company did call us to confirm, and they said they spoke …
This is classic Clara, blowing the office renovations budget on the bathrooms. Don’t get me wrong; I’m down with well-designed workplace amenities. But there’s only so far you can go with updating an office WC before you’re in the realm of pure self-indulgence, and I can’t help but feel that at least some of the …
Teacher seems rather cross, although unlike most such incidents, I think I know why this one is happening. She hates the idea of there being someone or something here in Melbourne who is acting non-human, but not attending Human Classes. She was quick to haul in the Atlantean fellow and the time traveller, but this …
Oh gosh, steel! I don’t know anything about it, but it sounds like it’s going to be the next big thing, which means I have to spread the word. I was watching a Me-Straw video and an advertisement popped up before it, stating that steel was going to change the world…more than it already has! …
I had my doubts when Week of Our Lives announced a spin-off, especially since it would only be a weekly show. They’ve had so much to do with boats recently, but the premise at the very least made sense – a few characters taking to the sea on a small fleet of boats to find …
