Melanie!
6.5 hours till melanie gets back!
Rubik’s Cube
I brought a [Rubik's Cube](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubiks_cube) the other day when Melanie and I were wandering around Big W. I remember having a Rubik’s Cube as a kid and somehow the stickers got pulled off it and moved around (No doubt the same thing that happens to all Rubik’s Cubes given to young kids). When I was [...]
New Scientist Subscription
My Melanie is so cool! She got me a subscription to [New Scientist!](http://www.newscientist.com/) I blogged recently about buying a few magazines to read while travelling and enjoying them. They have some really interesting articles in them that I find enjoyable to read.
Anyway, apparently at the moment they have a deal going where you get a [...]
Wii
Melanie pitched in and helped me get a [Nintendo Wii](http://wii.nintendo.com/) as a late birthday / early xmas present. I pre-ordered from [Target](http://www.target.com.au/) in Rockhampton and after a bit of bungling on their behalf I was able to pick it up on release day.
It’s a lot of fun. The new controller makes the games really interactive. [...]
And then there was one
Melanie is on her way back to America for Christmas. I dropped her off at the Rocky airport at around 6:15am this morning. I’ve got no doubt that her family are really looking forward to seeing her this year. I think it’s been around 3 years since she has been home.
She also gets to visit [...]
Happy Birthday to Melanie!
Another year older, another year wiser? hrmm
Yep, melanie is another year older today (american time) or yesterday (australia time).
I’ve no doubt she will have a good time.
Valentines Day!
Its valentines day in america today, which of course means it was valentines day in Australia yesterday
This year im spending it away form Melanie boohoo, but thems the breaks.
Melanie and i have been ‘going out’ for around 3 years now. Neither of us know the ‘exact’ date we starting ‘going out’ (what determines that [...]
Happy Birthday To Melanie!
Its Melanies birthday today! Hooray!
Happy Birthday to my Melanie!
“Dancing” !!
Went to dancing lessons again last night, im slowly getting the hang of it i reckon. Anyway, enough about me…
I think ive figured out Melanies dancing ’style’. She seems to like counting the steps out loud while she does it. i.e. “1, 2, cha cha cha, 3, 4, cha cha cha” etc which at times [...]
Die Floppy Drive
Melanie just dismantled a floppy drive using nothing but a simple screwdriver.
After much ‘ooooing’ and ‘arrrring’ and ‘oh its so cute!’ (referring to little parts) she finally has it in about 100 pieces scattered over the desk.
Here comes the plastic bag to throw it all out.
Another fun filled sunday afternoon.
Birthday Girl
Happy Birthday to Melanie.
*smooch*
Picking Movies
Melanie dear - your on strike two.
Strike three and you cant pick a movie for us to rent and watch ever again.
I say we go back to watching action movies where people get shot and stuff - at least then we dont get dissapointed.
What the?
Setting the Scene:
Friday morning, as usual Brett gets up at 7 and does the usual stuff. Melanie is still sleeping.
At around 8:30am, Brett goes in to wake Melanie up. She rolls over opens her eyes, looks at Brett then closes her eyes again. Brett sits down on the side of the bed and says:
“Are you [...]
I dont get it….
Righto, whats the deal… I dont get it…
Melanie would prefer to walk round and round and round a shop looking for something instead of simply asking the people who work there, but wait… it doesnt stop there…
She (we cause im with her when she does these crazy things) walks round and round, doesnt find what [...]
MySQL
Installing MySQL = Install a squirrel in your computer
*sigh* She is a maths person - thats her excuse
What NOT to say in a video store
Setting the scene:
9:30ish at night, Brett and Melanie go to the video store to hire out some dvds. We are the only two people there along with the two people that work there.
Melanie says in a normal tone voice:
“Brett, lets get this DVD, it was good and you can copy it for me”
Brett almost [...]
Little Miss Croaky
Ive thought of a new Mr Men / Little Miss book title, Little Miss Croaky. The story is about a little miss asian girl who woke up one day and had a craky squeeky voice. Not a constant one either, one that changes pitch without notice. Its mystery where this comes from as she doesnt [...]
*sigh*
M is for maths - something she likes,
E is for everything she does that is nice.
L is for the love i feel when she grins,
A is for my attention that makes her spin.
N is for nose - its pudgy and cute,
I is for innocence - a whole lot to boot.
E is [...]
The perfect cinema experience
Whilst starring longingly into Melanies eyes this morning, i had a brainwave thought of genius proportions. Following is my theory -
“Asian people are built for the perfect cinema experience”
why? - well its all in the eyes. Built in widescreen!, yup thats it. Us caucaision people have eyes that are built for the normal tv [...]
