When everything falls apart

Posted by: typealice In: BVI|Daily

Well, EVERYTHING just changed. Just when you think things are going to stabilize for a while, you get some news that alters everything. We’re in a MESS right now. Complete and utter mess.

Mad

Posted by: typealice In: Daily|Wedding

Okay, it’s probably because of my period coming and I feel ultra bitchy, but here it goes: To all of you who’ve been unsupportive or unexcited about my engagement: you suck. To those people who I’ve heard, “oh god, the wedding again?!” from, I DON’T WANT to hear it. You know what? I’m allowed to [...]

Weekend Movie #2

Posted by: typealice In: BVI|Daily|Wedding

It’s not nearly as good as last week’s video, but I made another one. It’s footage from yesterday and I edited it in about an hour. I’m not in it at all, which decreases its interestingness by 1000. Kidding! Right click the picture and save target as. It’s WMV and about 6.5MB. PS. See that [...]

Place and Time: F-you

Posted by: typealice In: Daily|Wedding

More wedding talk: I’m sorry. I’ve decided there will be no stupid fucking wedding because either 1. it’s going to be too hot here or 2. It’s hurricane season. Seems like the only good time to get married is RIGHT NOW which won’t be happening. And it seems like a year away is too long [...]

Martha vs Trump

Posted by: typealice In: Daily|Wedding

Although Trump and Martha are at each other’s throats, I happened to like The Apprentice: Martha Stewart (though any time that she was on screen I was pretty bored), and it actually had convinced me that Martha Stewart’s ideas were pretty good. I love her concepts with colour, and I think the most memorable thing [...]

My Latest Purchase

Posted by: typealice In: Daily|I <3 Clive

These magazines cost me $15 today. I’ve decided to keep a spreadsheet on every wedding expense. This is expense No. 1 (excluding the ring). I’m starting to dislike spending money already. As much as I can spend time looking online for good wedding ideas, I like the idea of bridal magazines, and shit, I really [...]

Quoted!

Posted by: typealice In: Daily|Links

I’ve been mentioned in the most recent Modified News article about my most recent web development gig, Paul’s Plugs.com The website, designed Gillian Hyde/typealice Design Studios, is a perfect compliment to Paul’s artwork. (Standard comment: it loads quickly and the links work. Now on to the site:) It’s simple and elegant, and includes just about [...]

What did you do this weekend?

Posted by: typealice In: BVI|Daily|Gillian|I <3 Clive|Videos|Wedding

What did I do this weekend? Oh, not much…. I just answered one of the most important questions of my life. Yes, folks…. Clive popped the question! We’re engaged!   ________________ Still playing around with my new camera and definitely still in celebration-mode for our engagement, I wanted to make a video of our typical [...]

Why I love my Canon S2 IS

Posted by: typealice In: BVI|Daily|Gillian

The power of zoom. Isn’t it lovely? My view suddenly got so much better. Check out the rest of my pictures on flickr.



  • Asheo: 3rd birthday is coming up really soon! So a few days early... Happy Birthday Ash!
  • April: I feel the blog revolt as well. I am not comfortable saying some of the things I would like to say with strangers, and I don't feel I'm able to mask
  • Stefanie: Hello, I have been a follower of yours since the BME days… and have always found your blog fascinating. This came across my blog today, and I though

About

I'm Gillian, a world-traveller turned natural parent. I believe in primal parenting; breastfeeding, baby wearing, cosleeping, cloth diapering, elimination communication, vegetarianism and all things natural. I have very strong parenting views. There's nothing better in my life than my days with my kid. Also: sushi and sweet white wine, skinny jeans and black tshirts, torrents and sugar.

My sustainable accessories company Pip Robins keeps me busy in the evenings.
