Hi there, I'm Ashe.
Ashe de la June


After many years in IT tech support and web dev, I unexpectedly ventured onto a new path. Now I'm in my thirties and have a double degree in Earth Sciences! I am raising fowl, a goat, a horse, four cats and a husband. I spend my free time in the garden and with my animals. Currently, my long-suffering husband and I sleep with one of our cats in the bedroom with a young pullet in a cat cage on a shelf who refuses to sleep with the other chickens! It strangely works out. My husband is an aspiring author writer and often blogs a story about our lives on the farm etc.

I am passionate about chickens, cats, web design, blogging, Pinterest, sprouting seeds, taking cuttings and other gardening, trialling make-up and hair products, baking, writing stories, spinal disabilities, making things and offering all kinds of advice to people.

Being one who loves to read, TaintedBlood.org is an old URL I purchased in 2002, inspired by the Margaret Weis science fiction fantasy Star of Guardians series of novels. Jazhiaran and Ashe are the names of rpg characters I created in the 90s inspired by the Raymond E. Feist fantasy novels following Pug the magician.

USB conversion



GRR! How hard is it to find a USB 2.0 Male to USB 2.0 Male connector, not sold in China. Very fracking hard it would seem. Yes, sometimes you want a solar phone battery charger to be able to plug into a USB 2.0 lot, too. Damn you 5-pin connector in my HTC Desire Bravo for breaking. Seriously, if Telstra and online forums reckon that this occurs a lot with the HTC hardware, then why the hell are they allowed to sell them? I ain't paying $400 for a new motherboard just because the connector is directly on the motherboard of the phone. Absolute rip-off.
