Happy birthday Kate and GXJ
I'm a little late posting today. All tired from singing a karaoke duet of True Colours with my girl crush Princess Kate. It's her 30th birthday today. She had an eighties themed karaoke bash. I wore a little blue slashed to the belly button jumpsuit [...]
Vacuuming with Vinnie
A while back I wrote that I was getting one of those robot vacuum cleaner things. A few people have asked me what I think of it so here's my review on my robo-vac (that's his picture here). OK, we named it. Well my daughter named it Vinnie [...]
Five over-rated things
This is from my Gen X Girl weekly column in this week's Townsville Bulletin Savvy Magazine. Along with 11 million other Australians I went and saw the final instalment of the Harry Potter series last week. It was good, not great but that’s OK [...]
Quick study on Harry Potter
If you're really behind all things that are really cool, then you may have missed out on the later Harry Potter movies. You're going to have to do do a lot of reading to catch up, have a movie marathon, or maybe have a quick look at Lucy Knisley's [...]
Will and Kate: A potted history
I'm going to be honest here. I'm just a tad obsessed with the upcoming royal wedding. In fact I may well treat you all to a whole week of wedding talk--but that's for next week, not point going off too early. But this I just could not [...]
Give those Biggest Loser contestants a makeover. Please.
This is my Gen X Girl column from today's Townsville Bulletin Savvy magazine supplement. I wish they’d hurry up and makeover The Biggest Loser contestants. That’s the only reason I’m persisting with the show. Let’s be frank. It’s [...]

Guess what I'm spending the day doing? I'm watching the Oscar--all day. Fashion, movies, Anne Hathaway, James Franco--does it get any better? Well actually it does. Had they put Hugh Jackman in there I may well have spent the day hyperventilating on [...]
What I saw at the U2 concert
I went to the U2 concert last week. Awesome is how I'd describe it. Not dumb throwaway awesome that we say all the time but truly awesome as in filled me with awe. I only went to see them because a friend had a free ticket and needed some [...]
I wonder if my husband is a bogan. God I hope not.
There's a new book out--Things Bogan's Like. I'm buying it for my husband for his birthday because I have this sneaking suspicion that he might be a bogan--well a closet one anyway. I don't think I am but there's no room for complacency here. [...]
Lisa McCune gets her boobs out. It feels wrong to write that.
Oh my eyes. My eyes. Well that was what I was shrieking out the other night when I flicked on the TV and there were Lisa McCune's boobs sprawled all over my screen. Not that there was anything wrong with her boobs, it's just that it felt [...]
