    Some Updates to The Trinity Pages
    Wed, 17 Feb 10

    I added a few links to the existing categories on The Trinity Pages, and created a new category for links: Overcoming Victim Mentality.



    Trinity Pages Update
    Thu, 28 Jan 10

    After the Big Hardware Failure of 2009, I decided not to restore The Trinity Pages fully. For some time, it was just a links page. Tonight, I added back the individual essays on self-injury, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), dissociation disorders, and Panic/Anxiety Disorder. Links to them are on the main page.



    Added a few links to the Unicorn Pages
    Wed, 20 Jan 10

    New unicorn links!



    Government House Photos
    Wed, 20 Jan 10

    I've put the photos of our visit to Government House online in the gallery.



    More Cemetery Photos
    Sun, 17 Jan 10

    We went to Box Hill Public Cemetery yesterday and I got some very interesting new photographs and have put them in the gallery.



    More Gallery Pictures
    Thu, 14 Jan 10

    If you're interested in the gallery, it's probably a good idea to subscribe to the gallery's RSS feed to be notified via RSS when there are updates there. I don't mind noting it here, but you get a more complete idea of what's been updated if you subscribe to that feed.

    That being said, I uploaded pictures of The Fairy Tree in Fitzroy Gardens, and Craig and Tracey's Handfasting, photos of Bendigo, and some other stuff since the last time I mentioned the gallery here.



    Gallery RSS Feeds
    Mon, 11 Jan 10

    Andrew, brilliant creature that he is, fixed the RSS feed problems I'd been having. So, you can now subscribe to RSS update feeds for/in the Gallery. Yay!



    Gallery Updates
    Sun, 10 Jan 10

    Okay, I've been slowly adding pictures to the newly installed Picture Gallery. There are more to come, as I've got thousands of photographs on the hard drive (and some backed up on CD or DVD) to process. One very good thing is I got the RSS feed(s) working! Yay. At this time, I don't recommend subscribing to any but the main one, though, because I might be rearranging albums...

    Fri, 08 Jan 10

    While waiting for Andrew to get back from the hospital (you can read about it in my blog if you want), I fixed up my gallery and uploaded some photos. There are loads more to come, but there's some stuff to look at now, if you want. Go have a peek.

    Bonni in a Nutshell
    • Born 27 May 1964
    • A member of Generation Jones
    • Redhead and proud of it (even if it chemically assisted; my grandmother was a redhead and I inherited her pale skin, it's just that nature got confused when it came to the hair)
    • Woman and very happy to be one
    • Rubenesque (i.e., fat) and perfectly okay with that
    • Expatriate American, living permanently and very happily as an Australian citizen in Melbourne
    • Very happily married to an Australian bloke I met on the net

    • Lover of perfumes of all kinds
    • Animal lover, particularly my cat

    • Enthusiastic amateur photographer
    • Monty Python fan. Bigtime.
    • Deeply spiritual (Christ follower, quite metaphysical, highly eclectic, profoundly mystical, a bit Gnostic, mostly esoteric, not at all religious, absolutely Panentheist, generally heretical, and entirely uninterested in being converted, preached to, taught, threatened, shown the light, or otherwise have someone try to change my point of view to match theirs)

    This Domain in a Nutshell

    I've had a personal homepage since early 1994, and bits of that original site can still be seen in my personal pages and in the unicorn pages, as some of the content there dates back that far. My first homepage was designed without graphics, because I only had a text-only browser at the time (I didn't have the right kind of connection to the internet to use a graphical browser, which, in that day and age, was pretty much Mosaic, although I'm not entirely sure when Netscape 1 appeared on the scene). My second homepage, which was graphical, was designed in Netscape 1.1. I did many of the graphics on it myself, using Paint Shop Pro (version 3, I seem to recall).

    This domain has been online since May 1998. It was the first domain I ever personally set up, and by "set up" I mean that I registered the domain, entered the DNS information on the name server, set up the virtual domain in the Apache server config, set up the mail aliases, everything. I didn't have the luxury of a control panel. I did it all entirely by hand. Come to think of it, I still don't have a control panel and have to do all that stuff by hand...
