A sneaky peek backwards before getting on with it..

2012, and I am! I am aware that it is February and despite last November's promise of imminent blog revival, this page has remained stale and neglected. I know it's not much consolation, but I promise I haven't spent my time since then just sitting around scratching my bum. I've been drawing, painting and plotting like a woman possessed! Hopefully this year I can actually show off some of what I've been working on..

But in the meantime, here's a recap of some of last year's fun times. It's as much to remind me as for your entertainment, because give it a year or two, and I will not recall when any of this happened. Not even thirty and almost senile.. it's funny because it's true!

Around February I karaoked outside a private room for the first time! Not that it made much difference since my friends and I were the only ones at the bar. Here I am doing the female parts of "Love Shack". My vocal chords didn't handle "Tin Roof, Rusted" at all well. T-T

I went to Sydney twice in 2011. With S.O. for our second honeymoon in March, to make up for the fact that I'd been sick for the first one (unfortunately I got sick for the second one too), and then solo in December for my birthday. Damn I love that city. World Square is definitely one of my favourite places to loiter and look creepy. ^3^

Speaking of looking creepy... Weddings! I love them! And this one was an amazing event. Gamer themed with Nintendo cake, coasters, desserts - the works. And Ben... dearest Ben the waiter who kept filling up my champagne glass. The result, as you can see - was not pretty. Of course the bride and groom remained handsome/gorgeous throughout, and wonderful fun was had by all in attendance. Yay!

Aaaaand, this was Bicky's wedding in November! I reported earlier on her awesome Hen's weekend, and the wedding was equally excellent. It was a delight catching up with Sarasparilla (who flew from London to be bridesmaid), and to just enjoy being in the company of some of my best girlfriends on a beautiful day in a beautiful location. Of course the really splendid news (for me at least), is that I did NOT fall over the side of the river boat during the reception! ^0^b


So rock on, rest of this year. Don't expect photos at the end of it though, because I've turned into a giant mouldy hermit (sorry, but I get way more work done that way)! Till next time. *waves* ^_^'
