Hello, my loyal readers!

Edit: My booklist is updated! Only 6 to go

So I wanted to be safe and wait a week but decided instead now is the time *fingers crossed*. On Friday we bought some Oscar fish! I was so afraid they’d die quickly like the last ones but they seem to be thriving in our new tank. We have an albino one (who might be called Jango) and a Zebra one (who is called Zep but who I renamed Spectrum because I think Zep is a stupid name :P) who are ravenous beasts! Well, when it comes to food… they never want anything else… they’d be little gluttons if we let them! Luckily, for them, we don’t So here’s hoping they survive… although they get big so fast it’s going to be hard to keep up with them.

So, you might have noticed my last post. Seems like Lazily is back in business! my first paid post since the ‘fresh start of 08′… so YAY to money Also I have a little text ad to the right if anyone would like to click on it
Also site related, I think Despair is broke… the code is all glitchy which is ruining my sidebar! I don’t want to remove it though because hopefully it’ll be working soonish.

Did I mention in my last post that I finally have season 3 of Veronica Mars? I finally know who the Hearst Rapist was and that Duncan and Veronica broke up… EEEEE! Obviously, she’s not with Weevil (even if my heart desires it) but still… boo to Logan! Sleeping with Madison? Eww!
On the Veronica Mars front, Season one is finally available to buy in Australia!! Only 4 years after it was on TV and all… not too long I’ve also seen that the second season will be out in September hurrah!
My only issue is if they’ll release Season 3… it’s never been aired in its entirety here so I’m afraid the TV station that was airing it will be a pain in the arse and not release it and that woul just be sad face see?

Lastly, and only because Menewsh stole my soul, I’m going to plug Menewsha again (if you join say Kalliste sent you! and then friend Kalliste) because I am it’s loyal servant

XOXO...

Hello, my loyal readers!

Mother’s day is around the corner and well, I’m poor. My mum wanted a pair of slippers (I know right, yawn!) and well.. no haha. I couldn’t afford a decent pair and didn’t want to get something crappy; instead I bought her 2 pairs of fluffy ‘home’ socks with rubber grippers, made her a necklace and earrings set and made her some chocolates. I’ll be having her over on Sunday for afternoon tea which will include fresh home made scones with jam and cream and cupcakes… possibly tea, if she wants it lol. Yech to tea!

On other, close to the weekend news, work was great today. The best Friday imaginable The network was down when I got in, they reset the server approximately 40 mins later and it was all good again. I took one call and was about to take another when everything went down again… and stayed that way for the rest of the day!! As far as I know it might still be broken For some reason we have a Dreamcast at work so one of the guys that lived near by brought in 100+ games and we played Dreamcast all day WOO! Good times!

Lastly, I got pinged on my last post! Yes, someone linked to my post… my second and already it’s happening YAY! I also jumped back to PR3, this makes me very happy

XOXO...
Kalliste.

Hello, my loyal readers!

Edit: Fixed the smilies. YAY!

If you’re a returning visitor you might have noticed something’s not quite right… well different anyhow (my smilies might not work either… that something I’ll have to work on).
You see, there’s been a bit of drama within my online world and the end result is my host changing to another company to host us… initially my old db got left behind. My host was very accomodating in helping me get it back but in the end I decided I didn’t want it back… I can’t believe how much neater my site looks without a bunch of archives lining up the sidebar! So yes, I’ve started semi fresh, luckily my host has been great and moved all my other stuff for me and put in all my themes into WordPress… making it VERY easy for me Plus now I have a new version of WP and it looks neat!! So swish!

All this drama though has made me a bit down… even though it hasn’t hit me as hard as others involved it still upsets me.

What I’ve learnt though is that sometimes people do the wrong thing and perhaps they should think about the consequences of that rather than expecting something for nothing.
Another thing I’ve learnt is it’s probably easier in the long run to take your share of the blame.

I was terrified I’d be gone too. I haven’t been in contact with my host in quite a while and felt terrible mooching off her and just expecting her to host me even though I contribute $0 to my space. Luckily, she’s ok with that and is more than happy to host me *phew*

SO what does this newness mean for me? I’m hoping to produce a better site with more than a blog… I’ve said that a million times before and perhaps nothing will change but I’m invisioning something better! And less cluttered with archives… and maybe some tags… this WP has TAGS!

Anyway… lets hope this posts ok

XOXO...
