Happy News

Congratulations to Adrian and Alysha on their engagement!

I told everyone it was so totally going to happen by Christmas!

I love being right!

Hahah!

Seriously, it makes me happy, very happy, that something in the world went right, and they met each other.

Cheers from Bear and I!

Rattie Macros

I totally love this website!

It can be a bit hit and miss, but with rattie photos + funny captions, you just can't go too wrong! :D

It always cheers me up.

Some favourites:

Oh no!

We've got rats!

heheheheh.

Everybody, please meet Milo and Beanie!

They came to live with us nearly two months ago when they were looking for a new home. They're about 5 months old and full of energy! They're also incredibly sweet.



This is Milo, snoozing on our sofa in our (his) mohair blanket.



And this is a short clip of Beanie, not doing much except looking cute, with random commentary from Bear.

Whatchu lookin at?

Wedding gallery is up!

Finally, finished the web gallery! Please do check it out and let me know about any broken links or weirdness.

Might write a post later on the planning process in case it helps anyone who happens to be in the crazy stages of planning one. :D

Wedding photos!

Our photos have arrived! Today! Which is why I am not getting any work done. Hooray!

The verdict? There were lots of good shots. I still regret the hair, but it was a happy happy day. Here are some to start off with:

At the picnic site:



Matt and Connor waiting patiently with the rings (and sneaking a peek):



Tadah! Married! Just like that!

An early start

Woke up uncharacteristically early today, with the helpful urgings of Bear, just so i could get stuck into my work for the maximum amount of time today. Needless to say, with a recent wedding, house purchase and immigration papers to sort out, not to mention all the other usual stuff that needs to be done, my phd work has... not so much suffered as stagnated. And there is of course no better motivation to restart the engine than an upcoming meeting with one's highly driven supervisor!

So here I am, bleary but awake, sitting at my desk, no one else here, all quiet and peaceful, perfect conditions for working, and I can't stop thinking about pies!

I'm starving!
