Growth demands a temporary surrender of security.

 
I wouldn't dare disobey the instructions on the back of my pack of Lockets; "Do not exceed in any 24 hours 3 packs for adults". Would no longer be worried about my sore throat, more about the fact that either my teeth would be falling out or I would be as high as a kite on sugar....

Blog being written IN Iraq.

The Espy. My favourite bar/pub in Melbourne.

I knew I recognised "Molly", Ross & Rachel's new nanny in Friends. She is played by Melissa George (Angel) from Home and Away. (she was also in the film Sugar and Spice)

Alanis Morisette Song Generator. Rather amusing....

The 2003 Melbourne Comedy Festival starts in three days.

This weekend consisted of; prince charming, cute panadas, Patterson's produce, Prawn cracker, Quicksilver/Argentina, muscles at the market, beachball, "so commercially trendy", Sodastream, "I only have eyes for you.....oh, and Gill".

Text message received from Tom on Saturday morning was weird. Neither of us have any idea what I actually wrote late on the Friday night for his reply to be "is it because she is black?"

Just admitted to a friend back in Australia, that yes, I have been suckered in by the soap Eastenders. I avoided it for so long, but am now a regular viewer...... Like to see how many times in a week Peggy can say to Phil "You're a Mitchell...."

Landlord has decided he is going to buy a computer this weekend. That means I will have 24 hour access to the internet. When will I find time to sleep?

Gillian will be arriving from London in two hours. Bring on the weekend!!

With threats of terrorist attacks, it does scare me that Menwith Hill US Spy station which is located near Harrogate, is only about half an hour away from Leeds. Apparently the world's largest spy base.

A glamourous assistant? How hard could that be? Perhaps its time for a career change.

Not sure how this mornings anti-war protest actually helped the cause?? How has this helped anyone??

I want to see Ellen Degeneres live. Does anyone want to fly me over to Vancouver just for one night??

While watching Saturday morning television, Melbourne band The Androids video clip Do it with Madonna came on. Was very impressed to see Tim Henwood (from Superman/Plasticene/Superjesus/Nick Baker) and LOVED the song.

Robbie William's new video clip,Come Undone, I cannot watch. The mice really freak me out....

Dress Down/Casual day at work has resulted in some people attending work in their pyjamas. Wish I had thought of that....

Images of Melbourne. Thought Marlas would appreciate these....

My flatmates' impersonations of Chris Tarrant's poker face while he hosts Who Wants to be a Millionaire as described during the trial of one of the contestants, was rather amusing last night.

After avoiding knowing for the past six months the sex of my brother's baby, someone has accidently told me in an email. Being so far away from my family, and not being there for the birth, that was going to be my suprise when the baby arrives in May.........not happy Jan (I remember way too many commercials).....

"Pay £1.90 for a bottle of water? I'd drink out of the toilet before I did that!" Said with a posh Harrogate accent - Anonymous 2003

Was just reminded by a high school friend about our Cheese and Bacon Balls Competition (vegetarian, not even bacon flavouring). I could fit around 20 in my mouth at once - I am up for a rechallenge on my return!

I am in an exceptionally good mood. Not sure if its due to finally letting go of an on-going problem; the fact I am exercising again on a regular basis; or the weather - the end of the coldness, sun is shining, and I won't have to see winter again for another 18 months!

I'm not sure what the result of this quiz is saying....


Bert & Ernie's Gay Love Affair

Look, everyone knows you two are lovebirds. Why
not do the brave thing and admit it to the
world? The times are kinder nowadays. There
may be the odd ultraconservative bigwig or
overprotective mom, but so what? Piss on 'em.
Come on out of the closet. It's ok.

Shrove Tuesday. You will need; flour, eggs, butter, milk, salt. Take one Mr Sinclair, place him in the kitchen, and there you have it - pancakes. Easy!

The button has fallen off my work pants/trousers. I can't seem to find a safety pin anywhere. Lets just hope there is no Funniest Home Video moment involving me on the way home tonight....
