Damnit - No more updates for the moment!

Until I get a new chair..

I was busily editing some pictures, getting ready to post then I heard some odd creak from the chair - I turned it upside down to have a look but it seemed fine all the mechanical parts were in place and there were no loose screws or bolts..

So I sat back down, then I realised I was at a odd angle, as I reached down to feel the settings I crashed backwards and landed on the floor.

Broken Chair

I then rolled up to check out the situation, the chair was a gonner, the 4-way plastic part at the bottom had snapped completely.

Chair Snapped

Just when I have no money to replace it - what a pain in the ass! Now I have to get out there and find a new chair. I went to AM today - but they were closed. I'll have to drop by again tomorrow.

My trusty chair that's seen me through 3 years of blogging and picture editing has bitten the dust.

Anyone want to buy me a chair for xmas :)

Argh - The Pain!

Mahai...

This month been damn kau expensive ok.

First my Mom was here, so went on many trips, ate many nice foods, spent many monies. But that was ok.

Then got lawyer fees for something or other $2300..

Then a week ago...my car decided to fall apart.

The crankshaft pulley cover broke and the crankshaft pulley had a little spastic episode, during its temper tantrum it damaged my crank shaft beyond repair.

Plut it's time for my Timing Belt to change aswell..

Sigh, so off I took my baby to the workshop.
