My sister made this for the first time, a month or so ago. Oh my. Oh my. When I tasted it I truly though I'd died and gone to heaven. It is the MOST gorgeous thing I've ever tasted in my entire 42 years on this earth. I'm tempted to make it myself, but my self-controlled prudish personality has decided that it would not be a good idea. Guess what I'd be eating for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Think I'm joking, don't ya ;).

just my imagination

God. I'm old. LMAO.

Judy Garland 'The trolley song'

I remember singing this song as a young girl (8 or 9?), in the early 70's. I guess I like a bit of lots of stuff.

Okay. I can't fight it. I have to accept it. I'm a clothes-shopaholic. BUT, and here's a very big 'but' ..... I have very strong will power! Heheh. Needless to say I don't clothes shop very often, or not half as much as I would like. But (yeah, another one) - when I look in my wardrobe and half the clothes look old and well worn...well then it's time to release the holic in me. Hubs has twice as many clothes as I do (and that's not very many) although, unlike me, he has a work uniform, so his own clothes don't get worn so often, obviously. I'm so 'controlled' (huh?) that I have a limit which I hate going over. I don't/won't let myself go over something like £15 - £20 a month spending total on clothes. Is this a tad OCD-ish/weird? lol Maybe. Anyway, so today I am in a good mood, because I am going to get some clothes...well, I hope so. Depends on what's in the shops, what I like, what I think looks nice on. I need some t-shirts and some skirts. And a pair of sandals (black, as the one pair I have are falling apart). My shop of choice? Has to be Primark. God, how sad. But I like it!!!!

Wow, that was a longish break. And I enjoyed it too. I mean a break from typing things here, posting. It was a bit like doing yoga....hehehh....I've NEVER done yoga. Well, how I would imagine doing yoga feels. Calming, relaxing. Serene. I have so much more fun reading other people's stuff than typing my own. That says a lot about my blog!

Doggy is still not 'potty trained' - needless to say it's a hassle. He's a lively little nippy thing and it's like having a toddler about the place again which isn't surprising as he is only 3 months old!

I'm finding that, in daily life, with 'outsiders' (i.e. not family or friends I mean here) I am seeking assertiveness more and more. Trying to attain that which I've never really possessed properly - only transiently - and then it's a terribly fine line I find myself walking between positive assertiveness and outright aggressiveness/anger, it's a bugger to control and guide. I'm sure I'm not making myself completely clear here, but I know what I friggin' mean lol.

Perhaps I'll post more on what's been happening but for now I'm happy with this.

Paul white house takes the piss out of Mourinho

I LOVE this piss take of JM. Just heard briefly this morning that he has been arrested over an argument regarding his pet dog.....?!

Well? I have to say I am not really that surprised to be honest. Having 'normal' sex increases a woman's risk of cervical cancer, especially if she starts young (teens I mean).....I guess it's linked (obviously?) to the likelihood of the more people you fuck around with (literally) the more chance there is that you'll come across/into contact with the virus responsible (one of the known causes of that type of cancer).

Our Velocity (single OUT NOW)

LOVE this song.

Our Velocity (single OUT NOW)

I am very, very lucky. Yesterday afternoon, on my way home from work, I noticed that the north bound side of the Blackwall Tunnell had been closed, with at least one fire engine and several police cars dotted at the entrance and further down the A2. (I, by the way, use the south bound on the way home from work.) Anyway, apparently there has been an asbestos spillage - and the tunnel, this morning, is still not open. I don't work today or tomorrow. Hopefully by Monday it will have been cleaned. Famous last words..........

Heaven't got to be a whole lot less complicated than this shit.


Knowing my luck, there ain't no heaven.

Hands up please. Who bleedin' hates fake accents on singers? Okay. It's just me, then? lol

I'm in love with Our Velocity by Maximo Park at the moment. I've tried to post the video several times via You Tube, but shit! It doesn't seem to be working. Sod's law it will appear thrice over as soon as I log out.

Fuck it. I'll post a link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWwBkA0GqaY.

Well...work was a load of crap yesterday. The meeting was a load of bollocks. Can you tell I'm just a tired old cynic? Ever met someone who can talk the talk, but can't walk the walk? I mean all chat but no action. Such was the person I had a meeting with at work this week. I should have just been more assertive (what's new there, eh?) and told them to stop the rabbit (more politely of course) and give us what we want. Thing is, you don't want to feel unpopular or cause a stir....if only I didn't give a toss. Life would be easier. A little bit of psychopathic tendency goes a long way to getting the job done how you'd like it, I'm sure.

Gotta go into work this morning. I swapped my days this week, because a meeting regarding a computer programme was arranged for one of my days off :S. It's okay. I need to go, because, AGAIN, disorganisation and bad roll outs of programmes have caused friggin' havoc.

Having a little doggy can be fun, but boy oh boy does he shit and piss! lol Sorry, that's SO crude. Seriously I can't wait until he is toilet trained. At the moment it's hard to get into a routine. I try. I seem to be the sole weight bearer of our new addition to the family.

And, guess what? My son spilt superglue all over our blue leather settee yesterday morning! Great fun! Yeah, life's so full of 'it' lol.

That Pink song says a lot about what's going on in my head....it's a part of my personality. I need my space. But don't we all sometimes......

Pink -

Came across this page, by chance, on the internet. Looks entertaining, but I think I've missed (well I KNOW I have) the first couple of episodes but I'm sure (?) they'll be repeated at some time, somewhere. " the classic 1892 satire The Diary of a Nobody now seems like a startlingly prescient mickey-take of the self-importance of today's bloggers"...lol I love it.
