The first article title on the page is the name of your band.



2. http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.



3. http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.



4. Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together, and post the result as a comment in this post so I can see what you’ve done !!!

a longish post on stuff and movies and memes

Well I haven't posted in over a week ....we went to the movies to see the Golden Compass which was alot better than what I thought it was going to be... worth a look if you like those sort of stories..

Wouldn't mind seeing 'the Water horse' and 'American Gangster' and the new Johnny Depp movie...Sweeny Todd


The other night I watched 'Ray' for the first time (it was on tv)..and loved it...so look above for some Ray... ;)


The sad news today is about Heath Ledger dying...he was only 28...which is a bit sad...as that is around the age of some of my nieces... way too young ..

Here is a fave movie of mine that starred Heath Ledger...




Had a few kids over today and they all had a turn on the wii but spent most of the time out on their skate boards...by the time they'd left one of them could go up the ramp and turn around and come back down.. cooked them some snaggs on the bbq for lunch and one of them spilt mustard all down his pink top....oh ohh ...


Met up with Deb and got new school shoes for the boys yesterday both size 13 !!! Daves were on sale and the guy knocked $20 off Erics as we were buying 3 pair ( Deb bought a pair for Tim too).
Just went though all the stationary for both the boys...just need about 3 more excercise books for Eric ...Mark took Dave to get his extendo ruler, tape measure and carpenters pencil at Bunnings.

Just got to get Em some shoes and a new top and hair cuts all round..

I've been going nuts on the Mario Galaxy game...lol... I have 79 stars so far some levels drive me insane ...you get so close to the end and you die... I love it when Mario lands on something pointy...he runs around holding his butt..not that I like his health being depleated (sp).. though....and I can't fly to save myself...cos I have the special red star than enables you to fly for a certain time .



this one is especially for Ngaire...lmao
Must get back into the swing of going to bed early and getting up early for school next week....as I haven't been getting my lazy arse out of bed till 10ish.

By the end of the night most of the youngens and Marks sister ... were blind.. lol ...girls were wandering into the guys toilet ...while the guys were there taking a wizz...lol... although I will say there were only 2 cubicles in the little girls room....NO WHERE NEAR ENOUGH TOILETS esp when you have a bunch of girls drinking...how very silly..

We saw in the new year at a friends house...and god damn was it a hot night..didn't drink too much (half a bottle of wine) Karyn (the host) dissapeared a few times (to lay on her bed and shower) lol..

When we left Karyns place (David and Matt ) stayed at home...and must have had the door open...cos the ceiling was covered in thousands of thrip... and I mean thousands...I ran out of flyspray so started using areoguard (sp) big mistake....it made the floor greasy and I slipped on it twisting my ankle and wrist as I landed on my ass jarring my neck...oh what fun.. so then I get dressed and go down to the servo at 2am to buy more flyspray..I think I finished cleaning about 3am...sat and watched some BtVS and went to bed just after 4...where it was too hot and the noise of the fan was annoying so back to the lounge I went...where I could still hear next doors..it must have been too hot in there place so they are outside...needless to say I didn't get much sleep.

Gee I hope the year gets better than this. ...lol

Christmas is coming....

I've nearly finished shopping for the boys...I have hardly anything for Em and her birthday is a week before Christmas...so I got her to write me a bit of a list...so then the boys had to follow suit (not knowing that I have their pressies)

Ems list had McLeods Daughters season 2, Rat a too eee( game ), a chair, money and GI Jockey( game)
Erics list has, phone credit, family guy season 6, zelda twilight princess (game), and membership for a game he plays online.
Daves list has Viva la Bam 2&3, Bams unholy union, SK8 wheels and other cool stuff ..
lmao

I'm decorating one of those cute Kaiser stars at the moment (one like Ngaire did)
I've decorated a pen holder for Ems teacher for Christmas... I can't take a picture because my camera is dying...or dead..it appears to be working...with out the use of the LCD screen...but...when I plugged it in to the USB port to upload the photos....NOTHING all the thumbnails were black....this is really really sad ... what am I going to do for Christmas...sigh...looks like I'll have to pull out the old slr.

oh I had a go at making some inchies...they were a bit of fun ..it was for a challenge on Aussie Stampers






Just bought the new super Food Ideas with the yummo looking ice cream cake on the cover....and if you flip the magazine ...its got a bonus Christmas booklet.


So I'm sitting reading..and did you know that if you burn meat, chicken and fish on the bbq you can create cancer producing substances... !


Last week I heard that if you leave a bottle of water in the car...the sun/heat does something to the bottle and that leaks stuff into your water...which of course can have cancer producing substances .. I do this all the time..


Basically I think we're fucked.


Tonight we're off to the club ...trying to win $2000...ohh that would buy me a new camera... with change... ka ching..


Tomorrow night I'm off to Melissas for a SU card making night... I hope that I don't get lost..lol.

just stuff

photo share... look at this stunner ..lol (no not stonner)






Movies I've watch recently and liked are 'disturbia' ' the hamiltons' (which was a bit creepy at times)...and 'the return' staring Sarah Michelle Gellar.



I finally finished my Gold Coast album..hooray ! next on the list to get up to date is the house album..



We've had rain...!! we had about 60 mls in about 30 hours...

Our water tank had 350 litres in it...and by the time the rain stopped it was full ....1000 litres...which is good.

The rain has caused some flooding on the main roads around...which can be a bit of a pain.



Awww little Lucy (our friends cat) gave birth to 3 little kittens the other day...once they were all clean and dried...there was 1 grey, 1 black and white and 1 black.....I got there in time to see the black one being born... :)
