random niceness

Some good news. Brunswick Street Bookstore in Fitzroy (Melbourne) now stock a range of my cards :) The thing I love about this bookshop is that it's open from 10am-11pm every day and great for popping into after eating out in Fitzroy.

And thanks to the lovely SJ I have a computer to use for a few weeks :)))))

Sweet Amy from Moyou has tagged me. I've been tagged before so I won't go tagging anyone else. Here's my tag info:

four places I have lived: Kyoto, Perth, Sydney, Mackay (not in that order)

four movies I can watch over and over: this is a hard one as I don't usually watch movies more than once.

four places I have been on holiday: Cambodia, Spain, New Mexico, Vietnam.

four websites I visit daily: recently I've been reading: design for mankind (love, love, love this blog); decor 8; creative thursday; all things considered

four favourite ways to spend a sunday: cooking and eating pancakes for breakfast with friends at my place; bike riding along the Yarra River; picnicing in a lovely park; reading a good book in bed.

four places I would rather be now: I'm ok about being here (Melbourne) right now but other places it would be fun to be are: Kyoto (I miss my second home); New York (going soon :); camping in the Alpine National Park (Victoria).

tagged

I've just been told I've been 'tagged'. This is something kind of nice going around in the art blogging world where when tagged you have to:

1. List 7 random facts/habits about yourself.

2. Choose another 7 bloggers to tag and list their names in your blog.

3. Leave your 7 tagged bloggers comments to notify them of their tagging and to direct them to your blog for tag instructions.

So here goes with my 7 random facts/habits:

1. I live in a little old house in the city with a large garden that will one day engulf me with its weeds.

2. I've just finished reading "Dead Air" by Ian Banks, a wonderfully cynical, but incredibly funny British writer.

3. I really want to visit New York City. I'm reading NYC City Secrets edited by Robert Kahn, full of the favourite places of writers, artists, filmmakers, foodies etc... It's fantastic!

4. I go to bed early - about 9.30am most nights or I can't be human the next day.

5. My favourite television program of all time is "Six Feet Under". Rachel Griffiths is amazing.

6. I love the smell of eucalyptus trees and the Australian bush. I almost cried when I first smelt it again after living away for many years.

7. I could easily be a hermit but fight the temptation daily by being reasonably social (I hope).

And the 7 art blogs I'm going to tag in this game are (apologies to those who have already been tagged or who don't like these games):

1. Moontea artwork - Kristin Logabill

2. Inaluxe - Kristina Sostarko

3. Janeys Journey

4. Woodblock Dreams - Annie Bissett

5. Pepperina Press - Helen

6.Poppy Talk

7. Jodi's Weblog - Jodi Green
