Continuing a (very) occasional series, I bring you the latest that Akismet has caught for me in it’s shiny net.
The highlight for me was the suit worn by the first dog in space which was inside the cabinet. It looked very comical but was in fact genuine and not just a corset with a plastic [...]

I love the noise my Mac makes when it empties the trash. It makes me feel like there is a little goblin sitting under my desk munching on my files. A pet goblin, not a scary one. Cute in an ugly way. Good at recycling.

Once again, I’m the girl with a million things to say, but with a chronic case of laryngitis preventing her from saying it. Writers-laryngitis that is.
