Evelyn Doreen and Iphone apps.

When iphones first came out I didn't care too much. I enjoyed my little Nokia and kidded myself that all I really need to do is text and call people but now the ipone 4 is on it's way and I found this. Now I've scrapped that thinking, I just want one.





















I have a favourite boat down at Bristol harbourside called Evelyn Doreen. She's tiny with a red bum [lower deck, stern?! I dunno] and you could almost miss her but every time I'm down there I go and see her, sat as usual just bobbing about looking like a mess. One time after a few drinks I almost wrote a letter to the owner asking if he'd sell her to me but just as well they have barriers and gates because I don't even have a Captain's hat let alone the pennies or the boat knowledge for a boat.
Sometimes I think I love that boat. I've had more than one daydream thinking about cleaning her up and going steering around the harbour in my boat that could barely fit two.

And that's why I need that phone and app! So I can take some dreamy photos of my boat and youknow..other things too. There's all sorts of things I've spotted that need just the right light and lens that a Nintendo Dsi will glare over with it's stupid one setting.
You've seen some of my dsi photos, they need an iphone overhaul.
I wrote it down in a JustInCaseIforgetChristmas list along with some other bits, that my parents are just going to love.

Bunny Got Nailed!

Nope nope I didn't do anything to him, he's sat in his hutch as usual a million miles away from designers who want to turn him into this..

This is the Fairground Bunny Got Nailed Wrap Cardigan. It's probably an ugly cardigan, some might say you  shouldn't wear it if you're over 8 or over 8 but sober and not going to an animal party but I still kinda want it on me and I like to think I'd wear it [and outside too].
Recently I've got my groove back a little when it comes to clothes. I went through one of those scared to stand out, awkward phases and now I've come to like what I like and wear it. Fruit jumpers, little green coats and all.
I'm not your jeggings, old boots, leopard print fur coat, big hair and 80s make up kinda girl at all. I like neutral, simple, masculineish clothes..but definitely not those boyfriend jeans and blazers. I don't like too many flowers or lace and bows and I don't like fringing. I like tidy, simple, easy breazy fashion. I suppose if I had to pin-point it, I like most things Alexa Chung wears out of all the people you see and read about. I wouldn't think twice about bopping her over the head to run off with her wardrobe.
It can go on that JustInCaseIForgetChristmas List.

Santa Katesy

My local post office is going to love me in a minute when I turn up with another 11 assorted size parcels for them, to add to yesterday's 7. I'm not even done yet! That's where I've been all this time, selling my bedroom on ebay and packing for Hong Kong along with a few other things.

Yesterday I wanted to go to the cinema so bad not caring, too much, what I saw but turns out there's nothing good on at all so Dan and I picked what we thought was the best out of the lot, Death at a Funeral. It was better than we thought but reminded me just of The Hangover with the everything-that-can-go-wrong-will-go-wrong plot. Something tells me 'they' might just be milking it for everything they can get. As a notreallyfilmrelated after thought, we both agreed that Tracy Morgan and Luke Wilson are looking mighty bloated and chubby these days. Thinking about it Luke Wilson wasn't really needed at all, I don't what he was really doing in the film. He played a bit of a douchebag and should have maybe kinda probably been replaced with Owen.

Photos You Probably Haven't Seen, of the Oil Spill in the Gulf of New Mexico.

I haven't been watching, reading or listening about the oil spill mainly because I just don't want to. I can imagine how bad it must be, I've seen pictures and read about these things before. Sometimes I think everyone just needs a gap from hearing about these kind of things. Recently all I've heard about is another earthquake, another volcano eruption, another crazy person shooting innocent people, 10 year old rapists, violent protests, people dying in violent protests, more bad husbands cheating on their wives, the whole world seems like it's gone a bit out of synch.
Plus, all these things ever do is just make me mad at the idiots in control and how I wish I could help but can't.
Anyway, I accidentally came across some photos of how things are going in New Mexico and just like I imagined it's horrible and ruins the morning.
I'll be back with something more chirpy by the end of the day.

DSi games for sale

As part of my clear out for Hong Kong, I got a little brutal with myself and started really assessing whether I need everything I have. And I don't.
Today I have Brain Training, More Brain Training, Super Mario Bros. and Brothers in Arms DSi games up for sale.
They're brand new and originally about £34.95, I'm hoping to sell them for around £20ish each but I'm open to suggestions.
Email me at kate_latham44@hotmail.com if you're interested and I'll reply straight back to talk business!

The small things

This is a nice little video I came across.
No shooting rampages, oil spills, earthquakes, protests, volcanic eruptions, plane crashes, politics, credit crunches or rapists at all.

Sell, sell, sell

For my trip to Hong Kong and China, in just under two weeks, I thought it wouldn't hurt if I sold everything and got some extra pennies. It may just be a bungee jump here, a helicopter ride there, who knows.
You can go here to have a look around. It's taken all today, 6 diet cokes, half a blueberry muffin, a few humbug mints and now I'm pooped but there will be more to come.
I haven't even started on books yet.

Get that boyfriend outta your bed.

I'm trying to wake up Dan with this while he's trying to pretend he's asleep but he doesn't know I can see his dancing feet poking out.
It also makes just good morning music when the weather looks as gloomy as it does today.
