Bits and Pieces

I noticed that I haven’t posted in a while, so i thought I had better — anyone that has been blogging for any length of time, or anyone who runs a business would understand — often it’s hard to find time.

We had been talking about a pet for a while, and finally got one! We adopted a really handsome boy called Bobby from the Cat Haven. There are so many cats that need good homes, I think its the best way to a) give some money to an excellent cause and b) avoid kittens.

Bobby is 18 months old and had been beaten pretty badly by a dog. The people who found him spent a lot of money on getting him all fixed up, and I am grateful they did, because he really is a Brennan, that boy.

So yes, I had my very own lolcat. Meet Bobby:

The kids love him, Jules runs around the house screaming “Bobby! CAT! Bobby! CAT!” whenever he sees him.

And speaking of the J Man, I filmed some video tonight during dinner of his enthusiasm for Amy Winehouse’s “Rehab” — whenever I sing the song, he sings the “no no no” part, and I just had to share:

Other than that, not terribly much has been happening, except I am finding my feet in the business, learning to defend myself against people who don’t value my work or vision, and have loads of work to do, as always.

Oh, and its the middle of the school holidays, which makes me a little bit stabby.

They tried to make me go to rehaaaaab, I said "no, no, no"…

That phrase is all I have been singing for the last week. Don’t you hate it when songs are so catchy that they stick in your head like that?

I didn’t even know who Amy Winehouse was, except for when I saw her pictures on Perez Hilton and DListed and had no idea. Only heard the song “Rehab” 2 weeks ago and I haven’t been able to stop singing it.

Jason has caught the bug too… and we kep substituting different lyrics, e.g “Mummy tried to change my nappy, I said “no no no”" etc etc.

I am going to have to buy the album I think. its just THAT annoying. :)
