Naomi Bulger: messages in bottles

Today I got stuck in our hallway for a rather scary and gloomy 25 minutes.

The doorknob to the door that separates the kitchen from the hall had fallen off and been neatly placed on the kitchen bench (on the OTHER side of the door) when I accidentally shut the door behind me, locking myself away from my phone, my computer and even my house keys (so I couldn't leave to go looking for help or to find a public phone). Channelling my inner MacGyver, I managed to dismantle the rest of the doorknob recess and get the darned thing open without having to smash the glass on the top half of the door (which at one point was an option I seriously considered). I then figured out how to put everything back together, including fixing the original problem. I am feeling somewhat smug this morning. Can you tell?

Meanwhile, here's what I've been loving on the interwebs lately:

* This post on overdoing social media
* Free iPhone wallpapers
* Customised serving trays
* The adorable Sophia Grace and Rosie, with Ellen and meeting Nicki Minaj
* This lovely digital download
* These dapper dog and classy cat habitats
* Beautiful photography for the prevention of violence against women

Oh, yikes! I'm so glad you got back in, but man! That would be scary. Kind of like that hand doorknob. That one freaks me out, but I like all the others.

Be safe and no more locking yourself in the hall.

    Oh good you're here

    _I have so much to share! This blog is my well-worn scrapbook, bulging with ticket stubs from far-off places, photographs of the lovely and the absurd, letters from strangers, gifts in the mail, fables and dreams, cupcake-addictions, sweet tunes, and treasures uncovered.

    If all this leaves you wanting more, take a look at my novella Airmail.
