Today was one of those rare days that you get time to yourself to be completely and utterly selfish. I had bought somewhat of a coupon book before my surgery and had a list of complimentary treatments at a local day spa. Wednesday was a style cut and blow dry, while today was a facial, back massage and manicure. A couple of hours of complete indulgence! I really could get used to that! It was my second facial (ever!) and I do have to admit I was taking mental notes. The only real difference to my normal skin care and a facial is; you don't have to do anything, and; the products used are probably much more concentrated and more expensive than the ones I have at home.

Hi Again,
Well as I was trying to avoid this post, at least it isn't in the FIRST post right? =(^.^)=
Why am I blogging? Well, I had this wonderful idea to start up Neko Mama when I just simply couldn't get a little tune out of my head. I'm also very aware of several other blogs which made me think, "I should do that!" I think I have something to share with the world, and if this is where I start, than so be it!
I love to cook, so I want to share recipes, creations, Bento, Charaben (kyaraben) and anything else food related.
I love Lolita fashion, so I wanted to share (more specifically for Australians) my 'off-brand' loli finds and hopefully in the not-too-far-off future, maybe even tutorials and patterns to make your own things!
I love my children, so I wanted to share activities, crafts, nifty hints and tips to make being a mother more fun! Because lets face it, being a mother is very hard work!
I love my husband! But I don't know how I can translate that to helping you all out. Maybe I could share some bedroom techniques? (Oooooooops.... maybe too naughty for here!) Maybe I can share my housework and organisational techniques?
I love Japan, so lets share our learning Japanese experience. I have a few tools to help me learn the language I want to share and give a review about.
I love Technology, Games and Anime! I can share my recent anime series, what i'm playing, what we're playing (my husband and I love to game together!). You know, fun things like that.

So, I feel I have just cause to open a successful blog. Hopefully my ramblings amuse somebody, as I enjoy reading other peoples point of view and unique aspect on the world.

Again, let me know if your out there!

Nya! =(^_^)=   いってらしゃい！

I always find these first posts on blogs very, tedious. Because you see, it is hard to know if anyone in that entire webspace of ours will actually read it. You spend a very large amount of time planning out your brand new blog, choosing your templates, colors, fonts, favicons even. Then you have to actually use the thing.
So, the inevitable and unavoidable first post comes about. Mostly in my previous blogs i've set out a very long and drawn out, "Welcome to my blog, I hope to do XYZ. I'm excited..." you get the picture. And then after a while, even a few more posts in, you realise that nobody ever goes back to that first post to read it. Nobody looks at the first post to get your introduction.

So this time, I'm not welcoming anyone, i'm not introducing myself. It's just going to be here. As the first post. And, if you happen to read this, let me know. Doesn't have to be anything intelligent or quirky. Just a "Hey! I read your first post!" would suffice.


Well I'll let this post end. And contemplate what I'm going to do with this new blog of mine...

Nya! =(^_^)=   いってらしゃい！
