Diergaarde Blijdorp v2

While my parents were here we took them to the Rotterdam Zoo.  I really love that place.   I went there one other time with some girlfriends but even in the 1.5 years since I’ve been there, so much has changed.

My (sort of) favorite change is that they have POLAR BEARS.  I was so excited I [...]

The Boy

When I was 15 years old I met a boy.  He was 16, tall  (6’3, which towered over my rather short 5’3 frame), had long hair, wore a lot of black and … we hated each other.   From the minute we met we did nothing but bicker and fight.  I thought he was a sarcastic [...]

One Week Headache

I have had a headache for that last week straight.  Sometimes it’s killer, other times it actually feels like it’s going away.  I think it’s all the stress since we came back from holiday, but thankfully all the things we’ve been stressing over have been sorted out.
Some things aren’t worth mentioning, so I won’t get [...]

Greg Leborgne

I visited my friend Gail’s blog earlier and when I saw the title In Memory of Greg Leborgne I thought that it’s weird that there is another Greg Leborgne out there, as it’s not really a common name.   I was in a state of denial as I read on, I knew it was him but [...]

Cupid died today…  This morning he was fine, and by this afternoon I knew he was going to die.   His decline was rapid, and I have no idea what caused it.
He had everything he needed, and Stelo is still fine *knocks wood*.   Cupid was very young, too young to be sold and in truth I [...]

Today I was chatting with my mother on MSN when she told me that a childhood friend of mine has passed away.   His name was Shaun Peter McNamara and here is his obituary.   He died of Cancer… what else.
Shaun Peter (never Shaun… it was always Shaun Peter) lived across the street from ‘Big Barb’, the woman [...]

Pink Everywhere!

Whew, it was hard for me getting my site this color.  I’m really not a fan of pink, but I tried to get the most decent color pink possible, rather than some in your face bubblegum pink.
A lot of bloggers are making their sites pink for October to promote Breast Cancer Awareness, which I [...]

CRIKEY!

Steve Irwin is dead.
If you are like me, you’re probably saying? Who?!. At least that’s what I said when I woke up this morning and Xander told me the news. Not many people really know him by his real name, when xander said ‘The crocodile hunter guy’, it immediately hit me.
Wow… [...]

Learn From My Mistakes

I am crushed.
I am heartbroken.
I am to blame.
Today the other Bunker died.
This morning I found him laying on one of the rocks in the aquarium, his little head hanging down into the water. I was sure he was dead.
When I picked him up he lifted his head and I realized that he was [...]
