Cringe

My friend Jason pointed me to this film. Baster. It’s a RomCom about:

An unmarried 40-year-old woman turns to a turkey baster and her married friend’s sperm in order to become pregnant

A turkey baster? Anyone remember when my family were on the Late Late, and Pat was prying about the turkey baster?

*cringe*

 

Stuckinthemilli.eu: Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!

So, as you may have noticed, I have redesigned the blog. This was done, as I have mentioned in previous posts, to reflect the fact that I will be using the blog for a slightly different purpose from now on. In the past I posted exclusively about the civil partnership bill, my family and the various LGBT issues that I noticed. From now on, I want to use it on a much more regular basis, and want to blog about other things too. These posts will revolve around my life, food (I fricking love food), vegetarianism (yeah, I’m one of those folk) and anything else that pops into my head. I suppose this is all reflective of why I blog, and why I love the idea of blogging. Blogging can be a great way to get ideas out of your head and properly work them out.

With the new domain names, it makes it easier to tell people about the blog. You can send them to either stuckinthemilli.eu or conorp.eu. 

So then, more blogging and less dossing. Have a photo to celebrate.

Results of poll

So, the results are in and have been counted. Based upon the poll in the previous post, the two new domain names I will be registering are:

• stuckinthemilli.eu (Stuck in the middle) – 42% and
• conorp.eu – 70%

What I think I’ll do is adopt stuckinthemilli.eu as the name for the blog, and then keep conorp.eu for a shorter and snappier offline address, so that people can find it easier. Both will direct to the same blog.

As for the changes to the blog, over the next few days I will redesign it, so that it can be used as a blog for both my personal life and for my posts about civil partnership and other same-sex family stuff. As always, if you have any suggestions e-mail them to me at conorpendergrast[at]gmail[dot]com or Twitter me.

Finally, the RSS feed is here.

Happy Thursday,

Domain names and some changes

POLLS CLOSED. Results tomorrow.

 

Thanks to the wonderful people over at Blacknight, I managed to win two .eu domain names via their Twitter page! (If you’re on Twitter, have a go yourself by following them and watching their feed… but you have to be quick off the mark).
So, I thought I’d be semi-democratic and put it to a vote to decide what domain names to register. Since I have two to register, I decided to make two different polls. So, have a look and vote in each. Please.

All this is happening with a redesign of the blog in mind. Should be fun 😉 I’ll be making it more personal, and be posting more regularly.
