A photo of a black electric guitar with white scratch plate sitting on a guitar stand, next to a teensy little amp.

We went down to the Mall today to get Guitar Hero 3 for the Xbox 360, then thought, wait a sec... So I ended up with this instead!

It’s a Fender starter kit thing. Comes with guitar, practice amp, cables, strap, electronic tuner, guitar stand and case, and a Getting Started DVD.

I figured instead of spending $140 on a video game of guitar playing, I’d spend a bit more and learn to play the real thing! This whole package was only $400. (Although the DVD is actually excerpts from the full DVD, which I also bought).

A photo of the back of my neck showing a fresh tattoo of the outline of a wolf with its head raised howling, it's set inside the outline of the moon.

So, I had a fun day today! 😀

A screenshot of an iPod touch home screen, but instead of the standard black background, it has the nebula image from Mac OS X.

So, I’m mucking around with jailbreaking my iPod touch. I’ve installed SummerBoard and am currently fiddling with themes. The Dock.png file is 91px high for the pre-installed themes, but only the top of the file seemed to be showing. After a bunch of mucking around, it turns out the touch only displays the top 40px of Dock.png files. Just FYI for anyone else who’s wondering what the hell was happening! Pretty slick, eh?

So many concerts coming up! Next is both nights of the Black Crusade Tour (Arch Enemy, Machine Head, Shadows Fall, and Trivium) on the first and second of November at Luna Park. After that is Gigantour II (DevilDriver, Lacuna Coil, Static X, and Megadeth) on the sixteenth, also at Luna Park. Then is Behemoth in December, then Iron Maiden in February next year! \m/

And more shiny toys!

I almost forgot, I had my end-of-year performance review today, and I’m getting an 8.7% pay increase! 😀

A photo of a black iPod touch with the standard white iPod earbuds plugged in, playing the song "By The Pain I See In Others" by Opeth.

I’m such a slut. I bought this yesterday.

A poster on a door. There's six barbed wire segments going across horizontally, except where the barbs would be are hands throwing the horns. Underneath it says "WARNING: Only heavy metal music allowed on these premises."

This now adorns my door.

A photo of a small baby lying on a pink blanket with pink and white stripy pants on, and a pink hoodie. She's smiling and is mid-flailing her arms around.

A few minutes post-feeding this morning. She was sitting there farting like a trooper, but in the time I took to get everything sorted out, she's fallen asleep!

A very poor quality selfie of me, a white man with a goatee, with a sleeping baby in blankets on my lap, and a kitten on the blankets.

A photo of a small baby with a dummy in, wrapped in pink blankets, with a tabby kitten curled up asleep next to her.

A close-up photo of the same tabby kitten curled up asleep.

A photo taken from the doorway of a rather small room. There's a queen-size bed sitting on a wooden slatted frame, all neatly made up with pillows and blankets, alongside part of a corner desk with a computer on it.

Lily’s sleeping through the night which is nice... she’s usually out for a good seven or eight hours. We were at a friend’s place, her cat came up and was snoozing on us, and one of my roommates bought a kitten earlier this week. He’s been rampaging around and likes coming in and sleeping on the bed. And I’m finally not all povo and sleeping with the mattress on the floor! Looks very spiffy if I do say so myself.

A photo of a tiny newborn baby being fed from a bottle. She's lying in my arms and you can just see the side of my face.

This is from earlier this morning.
