A Day In The Life – New Years 09/10
The night started with a grocery shop to stock up on juice, chocolate, and cheese. At 6 we sampled some of our purchases.
Followed not too distantly by some terrible fish and chips. Lame.
My sister felt like throwing up at the smell of my ‘Painkiller’ cocktail. It wasn’t amazing, but definitely not spew worthy. I got the straw from Mum in my lunchbox of pink stuff for giftmas. :D
A night with my sis is incomplete without Singstar. She is one of the few people that easily beats me at Singstar. It just made my victory while singing Spice Girls all the sweeter.
One of two kittens – this is Loki. Lots of entertainment but needing a sleep after round one.
Accessories for the night – Harry Potter lightning bolt necklace & Creep brooch
First spillage – sisters wine
The cards came out as a way to try and get some drink in us. I don’t tend to drink while singing.
Entertainment kitten number two is Onyx. He was crazily skittish and hid under the bed the first time I met him and a couple of days later he was all over me, climbing up my face. Yay for kittens, hug the pain away.
Happy New Year! I am notoriously bad at taking self portraits…or portraits of any kind. My hand isn’t steady enough for my camera.
Sister’s attempt was far more in focus!
Poor “bro in law” was rostered to work till 12. :[ He must have gotten off a little early as he was home by 12.05.
Random shot of bro in law's giftmas present.
Little blister makes the best faces and always makes me laugh till my stomach hurts. I got a video of her singing hilariously to Stacie Orrico's More to Life.
3am and time for browsing the net/sleeping in the bed bro in law kindly pumped up for me.
New Years Day and Hamilton continues with the amazing weather.
Found some of my pills on the floor and realised I had taken them out of the bottle the night before, gotten side tracked, and then fallen asleep. Doh.
Breakfast of champions - Camembert and cheese vienna sandwich with orange juice.
I've run out of girly movies I can watch that aren't about getting married or finding love and so resort to Hannah Montana. I manage to split it in to parts when sister tells me they're going to town and I can come. :]
OMG KITTENS
The Tron – Where bogans rule the land. (jkplzdontbeatme)
The Warehouse where everyone gets a bargain. Except for me because when you desperately want to spend money you can never find anything to buy.
Home time – Being chauffeured.
Mum’s gorgeous fluffy cat George claimed the Lego box for his bed.
At 6 little bro is a few years late to the ‘cut your own hair’ party, but good things always take time.
How did you spend New Years?
WTF is this Day in the Life thing?

Looks like you had a good time! This is EPIC photo documentation.
Aww kittens! Super cute!
Gosh I’m such a sucker for cats they make me melt hehehe!!!!!
My new years was average. I’d rather have just gone out for dinner or something <- I don’t do that that often. 2010/11 will be better. New years will be a nonevent from here on out I think……….

neeeehehe, you took some sneaky deaky photos that I didnt know of! Nice though, Was much more interesting then I thought it would be.
Yea it was great fun. Because we live in different cities I don’t get to spend much time with my sister so it was especially awesome cause of that.
Fair enough re the NY non event.
If everyone is just getting drunk and you aren’t drinking and don’t have fun around drunk people then it’s just lame. I had 2 drinks and swapped to water because I was getting sleepy. Was great. :]
It was fun as. Thanks!
I’m de-lurking to say that as a bogan living in Hamilton, we really do rule the land. Offence not taken :P
My NYE was spent watching Inglourious Basterds and drinking very weak Canterbury Cream and milk. I almost didn’t make it to midnight! It looks like you had a lot of fun though! :)
Hey! Thanks for de-lurking. I grew up in Hamilton so I know that it’s true, bogans really do rule the land. I just didn’t want to get the bash from bro in law in case he hates being called a bogan (even though he totally is one :p).
Inglourious Basterds is one of the best movies ever made. Your NYE can’t have been too bad with its presence. :]
Umm, I want your sister’s giftmas present. That is totally badass.
I know right! You put your glass under and it pours you proper measures. Pretty sweet.
aww, those kittens are adorable! it’s amazing the way animals can cheer you up.
Aww, your li’l bro is cute! haha, I remember my sis cutting her hair when she was little..a really BAD spiky fringe, hehe.
Glad you had fun! Mine was pretty uneventful…Sweeny Todd and a glass o’ red :) But it was nice and relaxing, as the kidlet went to bed early :D
Oh, p.s. I didn’t put on Sweeny Todd until the little one was asleep!!!!
Lol, good stuff. You’re lucky kidlet went to bed early. Mr 6 was still facebooking at 1.30!
I love that little character in 5:04 – such a QT!
He is the coolest cat in the world. I want to smuggle him in my luggage every time I go home!
I love this, it looks like a great time. Looks like that kitten is doing push ups tee hee.
One good New Years Resolution is to join other bloggers and take a step towards transparency from the companies who profit from your blog writing by NOT writing April 15, 2010.
Let private companies like Lijit and public one’s like Google know: you know they have not been transparent about what they make from our blogs; what % they share with US, the people creating the content they use and re-sell at great profit.
If you can’t keep your fingers from working on April 15th, 2010, then ask companies like Lijit, Google, or any other currently profiting from you blog this basic question:
What do you make from my work? What % are you sharing with me?
Your UNION, P.U.B., Publisher’s Union of Bloggers, has asked these simple questions from companies such as Lijit and Google, and they have either not answered (Google) or used personal attacks and threatened legal action against P.U.B. and its members (Lijit).
Why? Google, Lijit, and other’s profiting from publishers plan on there being no power among independent, freethinking writers. ‘They will never act as a group, never ask us to be transparent, we can pay them whatever we want, if anything’
Is your creative work worth asking this simple question?
Then ask it, April 15th, 2010, and tell your publishing peers to ask for it too.
Keep up the good work, nice cat,
Barney

eep i love this post! firstly, KITTENS!!! and FLUFFY KITTIES on lego boxes!!!! plus you have food (yum) and wine (nomnom) and the spice girls and nothing to buy when you have the $$$ to buy stuff! love it.
Yay for kitties!
Spent New Year’s sleeping and feeding the baby – excitingness.
I love the play by play!
And that you watched the HM movie, you are hilarious. Was it any good?
Your lil bro is too cute – haircut and all :)
It wasn’t as terrible as I expected. But it was still a silly teenage country romance starring Miley Cyrus having to pretend to be Hannah Montana and getting into “funny” situations because of it. Ho ho ho.
