I really enjoyed reading this post and looking at all your gorgeous things. You have great taste, and a beautiful blog. The tapestry and the bookcase are especially impressive.

CJ: Hi FW, thanks for your kind words! I’m glad you liked the post; it took quite a while to finish. I love my bookcases and the tapestry; can’t wait to show them off in my own place soon. Thanks for stopping by.

Cj, you are so cool. That’s all I have to say. No long things to say like everyone else lol.

Cut Copy is amazing though. I’m very into them right now myself.

Thanks for tagging me. Will totally give me something to do

CJ: Finally, someone thinks I’m cool! I’ve been waiting to hear that for years. Thanks, Dya! Ah so you’re a Cut Copy fan too. They’re really starting to get a lot of exposure now and we’re very proud of them as they’re Australian. They could end up bigger than SavageGarden.

Thanks for taking part! I’ll pop across and comment in a minute.

It’s like Tom Hanks says in “You’ve Got Mail”, that once you say something, you’re going to invariably wish that you hadn’t. That’s the problem with comebacks; thoughts are our own but words belong to the universe. As one who seems to have no filter for combacks, I just cut back with witty or biting remarks (as the occasion calls for it), the knack just seems to be is to let it fly. Don’t think, just say.

And your beloved momma tagged me for this meme, it’s somewhere recently on my blog. :p

CJ: I love You’ve Got Mail! I must be about the only straight guy who can say that. I remember that line in the film. It’s probably true, saying the right thing at the right time probably does have its negatives too. Still, I’d love to try it once. I’ll have to be more spontaneous; might be hard as I love to think.

And I enjoyed your meme. Just haven’t had a chance to comment yet; shall fix that later! It made me wonder why your computer is called Jamie.
