Weather, food and ANOTHER gift and new blogger.



Isn't it gorgeous, that was the sky yesterday.

I realized I hadn't posted any information recently about my diet. Two days ago I made curry with pasta, don't anyone comment on my weird pasta curry thing, I like it. I had that twice, as the jar makes several portions. I also was able to keep a small amount for use today after I went for a swim because I got back and was doubly knackered because I'm developing a cold.

Tonight however I snapped a frozen pizza in two and had half of that with some potatoes and vegetables... one of the ladies I'm sharing my flat with commented yesterday "M you have a really healthy diet." Only because added extra vegetables to my curry dish.



Finally todays gift... number 5,

"Duckie! I couldn't let you go without one."

This was obvious for me, the gift giver and myself are both addicted to ZeFrank. If you're a regular reader you know I comment on his shows sometimes and other times directly rip him off, I mean quote with legitimate references to the original source. Well Ze has this thing for Ducks, and as such the gift giver (MTP) and myself have inherited this fetish.

As such from the clue this gift was always going to be a...


I also just upgraded the blog to google's new blogger. I held off doing this for ages, I thought by maybe not linking the blog to my gmail account (ps gmail is now out of beta... anyone can join, no mobile number or invitation required.) I could maintain my anonymity. However I soon realized all it takes is a quick whois on my domain and my name pops right up.

I could have made a private registration when I bought the domain but I didn't wanna lay the green back down and to be honest my anonymity isn't that important. Not since I recently sent the address of this blog to our company's CFO - and I suppose as long as I don't defame the people paying my wages I've got nothing to worry about.

Speaking of defaming employers I found this quote on facebook today...
I made widgets! I put them on a conveyor, and then took them off again, and put them in big boxes. Read The Daily Star every day and pretended to hate minorities.

Worst. Job. Ever.
I love that. Just in case, I LOVE my job. That quote is not from me.

One of the first thing I notice on new blogger is a better writing interface and the ability to "Label" posts at the composition window. I assume these labels are analogous to tags, why are they not called tags ?

When you return to a post to edit it, if you had been using tags in composition they become the actual pictures you are planning to insert.

That was a fairly eclectic post... sorry.
