Anniversaries

31 January 2007 by kristarella

It’s very nearly the first of February. I’ll go to sleep and if I’m lucky when I wake up it will be February (lucky because that should mean I had a good night of sleep and didn’t wake up). Our wedding anniversary is the 12th of February. This year we will have been married for […]

Beaching

29 January 2007 by kristarella

I went to the beach with my friends this morning. Possibly the first time this summer. It was great, the weather was perfect. Alas, it seems I’m not capable of applying sunscreen evenly. The front of my leg isn’t burnt, there’s just a rectangular burnt patch with a white circle in the middle. I think […]

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
