Quirky Tuesday

Words that make me go Hmmmmm (or EEeeeeeewww!)

• Engorged
• Plump
• Panties
• Crouch
• Licorice

p.s: if you're wondering why I cringe at these words, go to google and search for images using the word. I rest my case - except for Crouch - that's just plain weird!

ICEBREAKERS

What 3 physical features do you get compliments on most?
My hair, my skin.... erm, can't think of a 3rd.... I get told I have small hands, but not sure whether that's a compliment or not :)


Describe your perfect vacation.
Tropical Island in the middle of nowhere with all available luxuries.  Alternate between spending 1 day lazing around on the beach or by the pool, then 1 day exploring the island or taking a cruise or safari.  Lots of scrumptious food that doesn't give you the runs, and cocktails that don't give you hangovers.

What has been the best decision you've ever made?
My son is the obvious choice, but I guess in general my best decision is one I make every day, and that is to stay positive, be happy, and enjoy life.

Anything worth having is worth thinking about, every day, for 5 minutes, in a dark room, wearing a really huge smile.

Macquarie banker caught ogling Kerr online faces sack



He's just got busted on National TV checking his e-mails when he should be working.  It's now had half a million hits on U-tube and counting, plus radio discussions and appeared on all the news and gossip shows.  Hasn't he suffered enough?

'Shovel-ready' wins word of year
I can think of much better words to be applicable for the award - like TwitFace - someone who uses both Twitter and Facebook!

Great to hear... just one thing.... IT'S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS!

This Crappy Fat ad

It makes me cringe every time I see it staring at me from an internet page.  Totally unrealistic, and an unhealthy way of portraying women in a way to sell products.  There is no wonder we have issues with anorexia and bulimia when you have images like this coming at you when you are trying to read the news online or looking up information.
