Busy Little Bee

I’ve been a little slack lately and thought it was time to get another post up. Well, work’s actually been a bit busy and I haven’t had chance to do one. I have a couple of unfinished draft posts that I never got around to completing them.

Things been going ok. Work’s keeping my occupied and my bike is fixed now and I’ve been doing a fair bit of riding. Been logging all my rides and might start posting them on here. Lost a little bit more weight too and I am getting closer to my preliminary goal of 80kg, yay!

I’ve also decided to take an indefinite break from WoW. The time offline while I’ve been covering most of the on-call over the last month has been rather refreshing and I think it will be good for me to have time to focus on other things. Will miss the social aspect of it, but I think it’s worth it.

I have spent a small fortune on getting some more gear for my camera. It won’t make me insta-pro, but I certainly will have a lot of fun with it.

Here’s a pic I took today. This little fellow has a nest out the back of our unit and struts around the field like he owns the place.

And finally, I am getting my car next weekend. Afta’s folks are taking a few days to drive it up from Sydney and are making a bit of a trip of it. I am super excited

Introducing my handsome Afta – isn’t he a spunk? I got to catch up with him this weekend in Brisbane, as he was picking up the Liberty. We had the most wonderful day together. We had lunch with my sister, spent a little time with Kat and James, went out for a nice romantic meal together and spent the rest of the evening chatting. It is a shame that he had to leave for Sydney so early this morning but I must be thankful for what time we get to spend together. And it’s only a matter of time before I get to be with him for real

BTW – the new car is awesome!

Kommando on Zgeek is currently running a six-week photo-a-week competition. For each week he will post a different theme or challenge and at the end of the six weeks, the entries will get voted on. This week we had to work on “Steel Pumpy Monkey – This week your subject will be an inorganic structure. Enhance its inner robot.”

Had a few ideas for this one, which I never got around to doing, however I had a brainwave when I was getting dressed this morning to go to work and here was the end result -

Was pretty happy with how it turned out. I also had a few other pics that I took, which were good, but not as awesome.

Can’t wait to see what next week’s theme is

Good Golly Miss Molly

Been a bit quiet the last few days as I have been in Sydney for my lovely Afta’s birthday. Had a most wonderful (but short) time with him, his family and all our all our awesome friends.

Back at work today and I have been procrastinating by fiddling around on my Flickr account. This has made me realise that I have posted a lot about my riding but nothing about my other hobby, photography. I figured that here would a good opportunity to show off some of my pictures, which will also make a good filler for my days when I can’t be bothered posting anything.

So to start off, here is a picture I took on the weekend of Molly. She actually belongs to friends of Afta’s folks but she are currently in their care and is pretty much a part of the family. She’s such a gorgeous creature who is so friendly and loving. Although, I think Afta spoils her far too much.
