Various bits...

Firstly, I want to give a huge *smish* and say thanks to those who watched and commented on the vid that maichan808 and I made and posted recently. After working on it for the last 2 months (on and off) and seeing the footage over and over again you (well me...) start to wonder if it's actually working. So the enthusiastic response was very nice. Thank you. It meant a lot. <33

LJ Habit Poll

Thanks to those who participated in my recent (nosy parker) poll. I actually learned a few new things and was fascinated by other people LJ habits. I think I was most surprised by how many don't use rich text (48%). After discovering it recently I thought I might be the only one sticking to html. I was going to do a graph thingy but I got bored with that. (maybe I'm not so geeky after all...*g*)



After my daughter's major disappointment early in the year of not making the athletics state team, she's had a great start to the new season winning Champion Girl at her inter-school competition. She's gone into the season with great determination. Doing heaps of training and feeling positive. I am proud of her I have to say because after that heart breaking disappointment it could have turned her completely off the sport.

Hee! Speaking of proud. I just found our that my niece will be appearing in the next series of Beauty and The Geek in Australia. And yes, I know. /o\ But I suppose it's not an opportunity everyone gets and she said she had a great time filming it. She's been sworn to secrecy so she's not allowed to tell us how she went. She did say she got on well with her "geek". I have no idea what that means. I have never seen the show and it kinda makes me shudder imagining what it's about. But I will be watching it (at least while she is in it). She's the sweetest kid (and gorgeous to boot!) and I am really happy for her.

Here's a picture that appeared in the magazine Famous. She's the buxom blond front left. (and yes... that ALL her! *g*)

Hope you are all doing fine this Thursday evening. I have been very chatty and bouncy today. No idea why really. I think I drove my kids and the staff a bit nuts today. I couldn't shut up. (seems like it's spilled over into LJ. About to do a happy ranty SPN post too! :D)

I just posted the new one. And in five hours it's gotten 15 hits. This is definitely a "languish in obscurity" type of vid.

Go check it out and let me know what "you" think...

I will definitely check it out. Can't do until later tonight though. :)

Yeah, you have time. I probably won't shut the channel down for at least a day or two.

This is the one which is probably the straw which broke the camel's back...

Whoa.... what??!! Shut your channel down?? You mean your website? Or YT? Don't you dare!

I haven't watched the vid yet. Just about to. I'll chat (and shake you a bit) then...

:)
