I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives. Wednesday, February 08, 2006. Ok - so I've been tagged by Purplesimon. And it's made me realise I must be quite an open person 'cos I don't think there's much my nearest and dearest would be surprised to find out about yours truly. Anyhow, here are 5 things you may or may not know about me:. Or "red rum" and I'm ready to curl up into a whimpering ball. At all. Tha...

I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives. Monday, January 30, 2006. I have accepted that every day I have to pay 'life tax'. It's just so much easier than trying to fight it. Like a friend of mine who gets all anxious about not giving a few coins to the car guard, or who gets so annoyed at beggars at intersections. His argument is "why don't they go out and get a job?

I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives. Friday, July 29, 2005. Great Lyrics. Part 3. Are a sick and morbid bunch. Really, they are. Here's proof. a selection of lyrics from some of their brilliant songs:. The perfect love song, it has no words, it only has death threats. And you can tell a classic ballad by how threatening it gets. So if you walk into your house and she's cutting up your mother. Pretended t...

Ok - so not only did we see Lloyd Cole play live - TWICE - we also met him! I have no words. here's a photo (above). Posted by dori at 5:41 PM. Wednesday, November 16, 2005.

Just returned from a real SA holiday - we drove down to the Wild Coast (and back obviously). It was a loooong drive, but really great! I'd never been down to that area before and it was a real eye-opener to see what exists in your own country. Above are a couple of my favourite photos that we took. Posted by dori at 3:52 PM.

What genius decided that popcorn was the thing to eat while watching movies? It's one of the noisiest foods around! That stuff the dentist makes you rinse with is coloured red so you don't freak out about how much he made you bleed. My life would be 100 times easier without the following: dust, ants, mosquitoes.

Isn't it funny how your old jobs come back to haunt you? No matter how much you hated them, or how long ago it was, they own you forever. So to this day I automatically notice people who wear glasses and rings as they walk past me. A family friend needed an assistant and my father urged me to take it - as a tempor...

I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives. Friday, January 14, 2005. I used the lyric "swimming is easy when you're headed for the deep, all you have to do is crawl" from the song 'Mainstream' as my inspiration. Sometimes I think it was just a dream. But that doesn’t explain the map. The light blue cloth had lain in a wooden box under my bed for as long as I can remember. I was told never to look a...I smiled ...

I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives. Tuesday, February 08, 2005. Great Lyrics. Part 1. Been listening to a mix tape in the car this week (hey - I'm an 80's child! And decided this song has really great lyrics - great enough to share! It's quite an obscure Cure song, taken off the X-Files soundtrack. I get obsessed about song lyrics on a regular basis so this is part one in a long series to come. Resurrec...
