Blogs, Dogs & The Full Bush Rat

Blogs have been defined as the media phenomenon responsible for the publication of more self-indulgent nonsense than any other in the history of the world. This definition brings me a huge amount of pleasure given I am the queen of self-indulgent nonsense!

Unlike most other blogs, I have no knowledge to share nor am I trying to self-promote and/or build my personal brand (no t-shirts or magnets planned). I’m not looking for fame or to make money (I wish). Nor do I want to create awareness of coral bleaching or find a new job. This blog is intended as a purely self-indulgent, creative, entertaining outlet for my nutty ramblings. There is no deep, meaningful, hidden agenda. It is, for the most part, a rave about how shit it is having breast cancer.

It will contain bad language and images of medical procedures which some folk may find uncomfortable.

There will also be lots of pictures of my dog.

Why the Full Bush Rat? Thanks for asking. Well, to be honest, Bush Rat was taken. No problems, I’ll up the ante and make that the Full Bush Rat. To those of you whose minds went straight to the gutter, well done. I’m proud to use the words "full" and "bush" in the same sentence.

Because I like writing shit down and sometimes, surprisingly, people like reading it, I have decided to expand my blog subjects. The cancer theme has become a bit yawn but I will keep writing about it because it’s not going to go away anytime soon. It will be part of my life forever. Damn it. The Karcinoma Kiwi Boob Blog (K2 B2) will be moved to this site (all that cancer-shit has to be parked somewhere). I will also be bringing Captain Kiwi's Lockdown Log over so you can revisit those glorious, early days of COVID. And last but definitely not least, 2DCs will be bringing you some innovative DIY tips and tricks (watch this space!)

Love yous all
