Greetings, Blogland

It's been years since I've gone so long between posts, but I promise you it wasn't intentional. Communication has proved difficult in the last week or so thanks to various factors, such as the fact that my phone started giving me issues and wouldn't let me send or recieve SMS, the work internet was down due to a Telkom problem and I'd used up my ADSL cap at home and the Telkom online recharge facility was not working. Have I ever mentioned how much Telkom frustrates me?

So I would like to use this post to say the following:

• Happy belated 30th birthday to Phillygirl. Sorry it's a week late. I promise that I thought of you on 26 April all day. Hope the year ahead is super awesome in every way.
• Sorry to anyone who has emailed / SMSed me and not received a reply yet. I am working my way through the backlog and hope to get there soon.
• Where the Wild Things Are is one of the weirdest movies I have seen. Ever.
• Packing up a company takes more work than I would have believed. And more boxes.
• Throwing things out / donating old stuff / recycling is cathartic.
• May scares me. There is so much I need to get done this month that I just want to crwal under my winter duvet and keen. It's less than a month till my World Cup visitors arrive. Eep!
• This freezing cold weather is making me grumpy.
• I have no idea what to get my mom for Mothers' Day.
• I am tempted to click "mark as read" on the hundreds of items in my feed reader.
• I managed to get to 10 bullet points. Yay! 10 points for me.
