Blogging again

since I closed down my last blog a little over a year ago - just for the record - 229941 page views and 1932 posts -  WOW, I sure had a lot to say in those 5 years, I've missed blogging a lot.  I'm doing a bit professionally, but it's really dry and I'm missing the controversy and the discussion and the community and friendship.

I was browsing through a few of my online friends blogs in HK the other day and really  missed those days where we were commenting back and forth on each others blogs and what was going on.

Anyway, I do have some things to say, so I'll start saying them and see what happens.

For a start - this is a really positive change in the Singapore attitudes toward different shades of sexuality - first a letter from Sam Ho applauding their approach  and then the information itself.  Now I guess the last step would be to decriminalise the whole thing.  Please?

Just for the record, I'm a middle aged married woman with two kids.  But I like living in a gun-free country where everyone's allowed to get on with their lives without the threat of criminalising them due to their sexual orientation.

New Life, New Blog

Just claimed title to my new blog for my new life in Singapore.  It's about turning the full circle.  I named our villa in Spain Quixote after my futile thrusting at the windmills of Spain attempting to get the most mundane of things organised. Like a telephone line.  But if it hadn't been that and if it isn't that it seems that wherever I go and live I find some windmill to thrust at, all the while in the trues spirit of Alonso Quixano "appear to other people to have lost my mind due to lack of sleep and food and from dedicating all of my time to reading"

Now that this has been created, I'll go into hibernation for a little while before I officially move.
