Meltdowns are becoming more regular.  Got a list of excuses a mile high for them (not enough sleep, too much work, can't switch off, etc etc ad nauseum!) All the reasons for my emotional behaviour seem so rational at the time.  I carefully analyse my reasoning, having the conversations in my head, any possible objections shot down in flames. I finally break and admit my defeat. His responses so

This happens to me a lot. I know I only got a likkle car, but sheesh! So I am in the right hand lane, about halfway through overtaking a b-double truck, or I am travelling alongside one on the freeway. When you are about parallel with the middle of their extra long load, they will indicate to want to be in my lane. I have a panic attack. Sometimes I think I could wee myself. What's the

I haven't been here for a while. I was seduced by Facebook and generally been taken over by my life. I was doing really well.  I had 5 balls in the air, and was juggling successfully. Eyes focussed on the prize, the Universe and I bosom buddies. I was listening to "her" direction (the Universe has gotta be female to be that wise, huh girls?) Everything was working out. Turns out this Universe

Ok, so I was walking through the shopping centre, wondering why I had insisted on wearing these godawful heels when I knew damn well I was going to have to walk round the shops, when I had an epiphany.. Why doesn't someone invent telescopic heels?  That way you can have the sophisticated high heel vamp look for work, or the races, but then when your feet get sore and you need flats, you press a

Guy from States is making dirty cars into works of art. The thing that astounds me most is that he's not just drawing a picture, he's actually removing dirt to reveal the picture. A truly remarkable talent on a truly remarkable artist.

Was catching up on my news, current affairs and general media bullshit, when I came across this article. I acknowledge I am not particularly fashion conscious, and certainly not an avid follower or trend-setter (eeek, just writing the word trendsetter makes me sound like my mom!) I further acknowledge that I do need to wear glasses most of the time, and am not particularly observant. However,

There seems to be an increasingly frequent mention of Bear Grylles... the man who can survive anywhere or anything. I would love to lock him in an empty room and shout "Get out of that ya bastard" with an evil Mwah ha ha! Discovered there is even a Bear Grylles drinking game!

So, I get a special offer to purchase some JVC earphones at a discount.  Various colours available.  Those Kooky marketing execs have gone the extra mile and selected a fruit to go with the colour:I was imagining the conversation around the whiteboard: BOSS: "So, we got 9 colours - and we need something fruity to go with them.... any suggestions?"

Being a Fleet Manager and general subscriber to crap, I often get advertising e-mails.  Todays special little beauty was from NewFarmmachinery.com.au. Normally I just delete them, but one of their feature articles on a new Bale Wrapper Range caught my eye. I felt sure I have seen this design before Yep that's right, I think they have appointed Hanna or Barbera as their vehicle designer.

Are you still making money from your wicked ways?  Does investing in those awful autobots and phishing tools make it worth your while? Surely the odds are these days that if your e-mails manage to fight past the firewalls and spam filters and junk folders, the best they get is a click of the delete button. Are there still people out there that are stupid enough to click on your links for penis

Man 'hasn't eaten, drunk in 70 years' I love the idea in theory - never have to eat, and never have to go to the toilet... but then... imagine not tasting a chocolate covered strawberry, or not having popcorn at the movies, or not cracking a cold beer at the footy.  Most people's whole social lives are based on food or drink related activities... so surely even if you can live without food or

I really REALLY wish that this scheme had been around when my boy was only a baby. The baby whisperers They call it "Sleep School" - a fantastic way for the parent to learn the steps of controlled crying, with a sane minded  assistant there in the way of a nurse, a medical professional you can trust to be stern but fair, and to not have irrational, sleep deprived ideas clouding their judgement.

Those long taggy things they put on your clothes these days. Their reasoning is that it helps the clothes stay on the hanger in the store. Fine, but they don't always work, so I still end up kicking the item under the rack cause I can't be assed picking it up.

What song always makes you happy? Accidently in Love - usually the Counting Crows Version, and Crazy chick by Charlotte Church (I don't usually admit to even knowing that song in public, but it's great belting it out in the car on a long drive) If your life were a movie, what actor/actress would play you?

Weight Watchers defends fast food dealThis just makes a joke out of the entire diet and lifestyle industry.  I have always said that WeightWatchers was a BIG con. (I proved so on this very blog years ago when I noticed that Weightwatchers "diet" sticky date pudding had more calories than a Sarah Lee one) - I changed their logo for them.

Is there anything you're superstitious about? I do keep 3 chinese coins in my purse.  In fact this is my second lot, as one of the first ones broke.  My friend suggested I take them out as that was the reason I was "broke".  When they weren't there at all I never had money.  Ever since I got new ones my purse has always had money in it. If a genie granted you three wishes, what would they be?

Sometimes, Tracy, having more fun and being happier comes from looking for each in crazy, new places; instead of waiting for them to come from where you've found them before or where others are now finding them. And I do mean crazy. Not just from the old standbys of travel, adventure, and romance, but from stretching, reaching, and growing. Accepting new responsibilities for your happiness,

People Who Use the Force This is actually not a dig at Star Wars fans - so no hate mail thank you.  It's those people who despite given a set of instructions, fail to use them, preferring to "use the force" or rather, they automatically assume that they know better and don't need to read instructions. Of course, this means that they fuck it up! READ THE INSTRUCTIONS - THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE THERE

Yes, you can have whatever you want. ANYTHING you can imagine. You name it. It's yours. Done deal. Zip, zap. Bing, bong. Ka-pow. Oh, but you have to go get it. K?      I'll help,            The Universe P:S: We're a team. I'll do the hard parts, but you gotta get us started. Schwing, baby.

Pregnant women who smoke. I don't get on soap boxes very often, and I prefer not to force my opinions on to other people.  I detest smoking, but if you wanna go and kill yourself slowly, one cancer stick at a time, and stink while doing it, then go right on ahead. What makes me sick to my stomach though, is women who still smoke when they are pregnant. We all know that this can seriously harm

Rather than copy other people's questions I found some of my own.  I found these "Icebreakers" on an internet dating site (please don't ask why I was on there!) and thought it only fair that I answer the questions myself. What's the best dream you've ever had? Don't remember many of my dreams.  At one point I was writing them down as soon as I woke up, and was writing them on a separate blog,

Taxation is meant to be unexplainable… that way the Government can take what they like and you can’t argue It all goes downhill when you hit 35 (so I got 5 months!)

"Street Type" I know I have put bad Grammar in here before, but this is kind of different.  I'm sure they go to school, and I assume they are taught the principles of good English, but yet they think it's really "cool" to type how they talk.  Example is a question I got from one of those naff home made Quiz Creators on FB: " how long wud u last not very long..u dump cuz u see him with other

I google a lot... mostly for info, research and for photos that go with my posts, and I love it when I come up with interesting pics completely off topic. This photo came up on a search for "Lake Walk" Obviously I was "intrigued" enough to click (my inner 12 yr old giggling), and I discovered this site.

Manic Monday What did you get in trouble for the most when you were a kid? Can't remember being told off as a little kid, but as a teenager it was for staying out late, or saying that I was a friends place when I was going out with boys instead! (Still happens!!!)

I understand, that you must wonder, sometimes to the point of bewilderment, at what you're truly capable of doing. Yet, therein lies the "problem," because living the life of your dreams is far more about what I'm capable of doing.   Surrender -          The Universe P.s: All I need from you is a vision, followed by an unending march of little, tiny baby steps in its direction.

Gossip Columnists I'm tired of hearing about Tiger Woods. I couldn't give a crap how many women he had his 5iron in. I don't care that Angelina ripped Brads shirt in an argument. They can afford to buy him a new one. and the less said about Paris Hilton the better. WE DON'T CARE! I would like to hear about REAL news, about heroic "ordinary" people who should be recognised for their gallant,

Yesterday I watched a small bird, flying very fast, disappear into the canopy of an oak tree. So dense were its leaves that it was impossible to see what happened next, though I can tell you it remained inside.I wondered how the little bird found its opening through the leaves at such a speed, and then managed to gently align its fragile body on the branch it chose to land upon, all within a

You can't break it unless it's cracked or flawed.You can't repair it if it doesn't want to be fixed.I tried.By then the train has sped past the station and was out of control.I don't expect understanding.Don't expect forgiveness.I just see the other side of the coin.The destruction was not a solo mission.

My wish for you, is that you succeed beyond your wildest imagination. That you find love in places that astound you. And that you have friends who call you "just because." I dream that you go barefoot more than you wear shoes. That you play as hard as you work. And that you laugh more than you cry. I want you to set the bar high, but not too high. To reach for the stars, but with your toes on the
