Murder, she wrote..

Stef was nagging me about my salt and butter intake due to the fact being a CFS sufferer apparently has me in the ‘high risk’ category for heart problems, he then made a joke about how nobody would notice if I carked it so long as he continued to tweet and facebook in my place [...]

A guide to English accents in the UK and abroad.

This video details Uk accents: I watched this and had at least 2 laugh out loud moments, the guy has it almost right – give it a go, just try not to be offended because stereotypes are rife *grin*

Blogging is definitely the new sex.

You see, my previous post was just a fly by thought, since then a few more things have occurred to me that tend to confirm that thought as a valid one.

Princess Leia’s metal bikini

Oh yeah – that’s a heading to grab your attention isn’t it? Men! Actually, this post has been prompted by a link my fave Ubuntu tech posted on twitter, it had me doing an idle search for a costume after joking to Stef about maybe doing that for the next fancy dress party we attended.

m’a bad girl.

Well, not bad, just rude. I was just the ‘victim’ of a sales caller – apparantly some of those surveys I participated in led to my number being given out *mental note, if they ask for your number stop doing the survey*

Me? A Smac addict..?

Apparantly so..

Perceptions..

You’ve gotta laugh really, I clicked on a twitter link and was directed to woot.com. The item on display was the black and decker scumbuster 2 piece set:

Back to work?

Don’t make me laugh! The government are apparently eager to get all of us malingerers off incapacity benefit and back on the work force – at least that’s the story..

In synch?

If this hits the right buttons you are. Cheers Steve AN OPEN LETTER TO MR. JAMES THATCHER

Attention mommy bloggers

Oh what a beautiful morning!

It is absolutely gorgeous out there today. Bit cold still, but the front room seems so warm and inviting when the sun streams through like this – and to think I used to avoid the sun where possible (well, ok so I’m not planning on going outside in it for long, but i’m not hissing [...]

Devil man

I know, Rob Zombie is not the best artist to listen to before bed – especially that specific track – it’s all Stefs fault though. He’s playing CoH again and apparently they now have a streaming radio to listen to and he keeps asking me if i’ve ever heard of the artists on there *tuts* [...]

AHAHahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

I’ve just found out that St. Valentines day is also national impotence day

High school musical

I’ve seen this thing everywhere – and I do mean everywhere, Claire started talking about it tonight because apparantly all her kids love it (by ‘her kids’ I mean the ones she teaches music to) so I asked her what the deal was – this sparked off a huge discussion with her sister about the [...]

It’s a chocolate christmas

I woke up this morning after dreaming that i’d gone downstairs to open my gifts only to find everyone else had already opened theirs and half of the things we’d brought were missing – instead there were just hundreds of chocolate eggs – and all the ones i’m not too keen on, cadburys caramel and [...]

Now that’s just FOWL

I had a really nice time down at the in-laws, mind you, we always do. I went strawberry picking on Giulias allotment, managed to nearly kill myself attempting to water the beans and things (I’m so weak and pitiful *sigh* I’m also not really made for outdoor work – the first sign of any insectoid [...]

The apple of my eye.. Not.

Just drive the damn car!

Death on the roads! Muahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Yup, yours truly is now learning to drive. With 2 lessons a week for (probably) the next 2 months, funds allowing I should have my licence by the time I’m 30!! At least that’s the plan.

Meeting the KI’ers

Just got back in, Claire and her mum are happily strumming away on the ol’ guitars and I’m nursing my throat *grin* Roll on 2007, the summer months.

proof positive I’m addicted to blog

Me: So what do you think? Him: I.. *stops and shifts weight slightly* Me: did you just stop talking then to fart?!

Spreading the love

Happy New Year Yup, if you’re reading this then you made it through all the crap that was thrown at us all last year, congratulations – have a big *hug* from me – and if you made a new years resolution then I wish you the best in luck and willpower and hope it wasn’t [...]

Laughing it up

I had another strange dream. I was auditioning for the X-Factor, dressed as Lara Croft. The cameras converged upon me and when I was asked the question “Why are you dressed as Lara Croft?” I calmly pulled out my gun and answered “One way or another I will be getting through.” Don’t ask… My song [...]

MEN!

Stef, my beloved – the evil one who has the ability to wrest a smile from my face even as he tortures me, has asked that I tell this tale from my point of view.

Flowers? For me?

I’m quite overcome. No – really. I’ve always dreamed that someday a handsome admirer would send flowers to my workplace (yes I am that sad, once again I’ll blame the early exposure to mills & boon) and look it’s finally (kinda) happened.

I’m just not a royalist

Just found this on the WAYN message boards – made me cackle so I thought I’d share: Royal Wedding

misheard lyrics

Conversation between me and the bloke this afternoon: Me: singing along to the commitments album

the life cycle of a blogger, and stuff..

I am a VERY happy bunny right now *massive grin* Having sat down after dancing around the house like a mad thing and screaming “yes YES yeeeeeeees” at the top of my lungs (god knows what poor Gerry next door must be thinking) I’ll just throw some love out to you guys:

Sean’s ace!

My housemate (as previously mentioned many times before) is a filthy animal, I’m beginning to think this may just be a mark of some form of genius… He’s planning on disappearing into some place a 2 day donkey trek outside civilization to watch a bunch of Howler monkeys for several months or more, this is [...]

..and a glass of white wine for the lady

I watched Tv the other night – not a strange or unusual thing in itself – what was unusual was the sheer volume of outright belly laughter issuing forth upon watching ‘An audience with Al Murray’.

HAHAHAhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa!

WTF?!?! Since when?! You Are a Pundit Blogger! Your blog is smart, insightful, and always a quality read. Truly appreciated by many, surpassed by only a few.

prelude to a kiss

Sean’s just told me about ‘Jump day’ I’ll share that with you in a minute but first I have to gush about the film I just watched.

euuwww.. I mean.. c’mon!

Currently reading one of those womens fiction things – you know, the throw away on holiday types – it’s called Deep Heat by Chris Manby.

My gran – the comedienne

My gran (as previously mentioned several times) is a riot. Have just gotten home after spending the morning with her going round town. We went past the Anne Summers shop and she started telling me this tale about a conversation she had with my aunty Jane not long back. Basically Jane was saying she’d like [...]

peelers

I decided it’s about time I tried one of the facepacks I bought the other day (yup, we never got round to using ‘em after all that… figures…)

date response

Well… I am now the proud (?!) owner of a Dan K O’leary pic. What a dude *grin* His response to reading my post *blush* (see, me = tit. Allow person rant is about see it – actually TELL them to see it! Then forget until they email me about it – I’m no Paladin, [...]

Date application

Around 3am last night I suddenly realised that, although I felt shattered… I couldn’t sleep. In an effort to tire myself out enough to crave the land of nod, I browsed around blogexcerpts looking for anything of interest – I found this

ahh, the memories

Have just been reading Johnnys blog (a daily occurrence so no shock there) but this particular tale really struck a memory chord. I used to work on a tarot phoneline, it was easy money and nightwork – I’ve always preferred nights so it suited me. The thing is, this particular company also ran a ‘chatline’, [...]

3 months?

Seems the hardcore elephant urination approach has paid off *grimace* so I’m considering changing the title of my blog. For real, checking the keywords used by the people who have found it:

A bouncers lot is not a happy one

GRrrrrrrrrrr… being a little girl in security is not fun sometimes… our lil oz friend had been doing sidestage for most of the night with no problems – now he’s only a couple of inches taller than i am but no one queries his ability to chuck a guy out. The problem only started when [...]

Team fishcake

another shift, another coffee with baileys as reward upon my return home… (the whipped cream topping is what makes it a treat) as always the need to unwind after work also involves a short (yep, i said short) internet session (after all who could sleep without checking for messages..?) i decided that i should have [...]
