The-Diet Weigh in Week 13

Quick update…. Saw my dietician today and she was pleased with my progress. I felt pretty good considering I’d gone there in a pair of jeans that spent the last 2 years in the closet. I commented about how slow I was losing but she said not to sweat it, that you lose inches quicker than kilos (or lbs) so …

Turtle Update

After the first Bunker dieing, and losing the second Bunker such a short while later, I was quite unsure what I wanted to do with the new tank we had previously ordered. We had a new baby turtle that we’d bought to keep the second Bunker company after the death of the first one. We named him Frick! (with !) …

Doctor Will The Puppetmaster – BB7 Spoilers!

I think this latest episode of BB7 (Aug 22) was one of the best yet. I’m totally being won over by Will, I’d even go as far as to say he deserves to win Big Brother a 2nd time. Nobody has ever played as well as he does and he has this uncanny way of getting everyone to believe him …

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 still alive. …

Breigh and Boys

Another one of my crazy train of thoughts … I was in the shower and I started thinking about my boobs, which I guess is normal… with them right there under my face and all. I know it seems like all my weird thought processes are about boobs, not sure what’s up with that. Then I started thinking about the …
