Eagle Architecture

I've been feeling hyperactive since Xmas.. ok fine I'm feeling guilty after consuming to many festive goodies and am trying to work it all off. Most of which I'm blaming on everyone who gave me chocolate! And which has led me to believe that Xmas is not about love and giving but about trying to make everyone else fatter than you! Anyway... I've started going on really long runs interspersed with large amounts of walking. A lot of my walking is spent checking out the different houses in the neighbourhood to distract myself from the chest pains and burning joints. Yesterday I passed this giant house that would put any over indulgent hip-hop star to shame! Especially its remarkable kitschness! And the cherry on top of this bling palace is the stain glass eagle which overlooks the barren front lawn. Apparently this eagle has bankrupted the homeowners because not only can they not afford grass but they cant afford paint either..The whole house is grey with primer except for a glinting eagle soaring from its depths

Why Spur Wine is the Devil

Tonight Ash and I hit Spur for a bit of gossip and semi-decent food. She ordered schnizel, me a chicken burger.. grilled of course! But foolishly I also indulged in some of the house's finest rose.. Needless to say that thats when it went a bit pear shaped! This wine has the power of at least 6 tequilas per glass... so two glasses of it had me floored.. dont tell Ash though.. she thinks I was FINE! However.. I feel it my duty to inform all what can occur from drinking this poison.. besides ignoring the calories from a Spur meal.. it can make snails seem ginormous.. make toothbrushes attack.. and all pain vanish! Wait.. what was my point? Oh yes! Drink Spur wine ;)

Abnormal Fears

At the moment Im having huge problems with Smudge.. shes acting more crazy than normal. She has recently developed a phobia of the floor! Seriously! A cat who is afraid of terra firma.. How do you fix that? Jeru laughed at my problem saying that only I could possibly have a cat that needs a shrink! And I think she maybe right.. im gonna have to bring in one of those animal whisperers to cure this problem cause seriously I cant keep carrying her everywhere... I know to most Im a bit of a doormat but I draw the line at being a bloody moving basket!
