Own a pair of Malono Blahnik’s like these

Own a pair of Jimmy Choo’s

8 Books I Have Read Recently
Sickened The Memoir of a Münchhausen by Proxy Childhood- Julie Gregory
The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath (again)
Romeo and Juliet - Shakespeare (with Moo for school, I always read her school books so we can discuss them)
Wings of madness a mothers journey - Jo Buchanan (story of child actors decent into schizophrenia)
Left to Tell - Immaculee Ilibagiza (truly moving book, her story of survival during the Rwandan Holocaust, a must read!)
Hospital by the River - forgotten the author as I have lent it out. Story of a missionary that set up a hospital to help women with terrible injuries after giving birth and have been disowned by their families.
TV guide and Porn….. sorry it was getting all too serious and you were starting to think I actually cared about something other than myself, shoes and coffee.
8 Songs I Could Listen To Over And Over
My fav bands right now are: John Butler Trio, Metallica, Pink, Kiss Chasy so anything by them. This week. My tastes change like my shoes.
Oh and club music. And 80’s. And 90’s
Oh just anything but Folk and Country and Western really….. or when people do that dragging out the word in a hundred different octaves to make them sound like Gospel singers when in fact they just sound like a cat with it’s balls caught in a vice. Yeah that sorta music. And Mika. Fuck I hate Mika. Boo on the other hand LURVES Mika. Hence my Mika abhorrence. Same song on loop for days and days and days…
8 Things That Attract Me To My Best Friends
Money, Money, Money…..
Nah, I dunno. My friends are sooooo varied. They all hate each other. Makes my birthday and Christmas interesting! But at least I get to go out to dinner 10 times, their shout, for one birthday!
8 People Who Should Totally Do This Meme.
Sigh. this is the bit I hate. If I tag someone they might hate me for tagging them, if I don’t tag someone they might get all hurt and offended and shit.
OK, suck it up Kelley.
Girl at Fertile Mertile, Erin (cause she is back again with her mad comments, love ya Erin!), Karen at Misc Mum, Contrary (cause they will be hilarious!), Meg at Dipping in the Blogpond cause she is my new best friend ;), Tiffany at Three Ring Circus, Slouching Mom (cause I know that she will do it properly and with flair), Gina at Just another Day, and Stimey.
Phew. If you want to do it just let me know and I will add you, OK? Cool.

I love how I tag people for a meme (I am going to refuse all memes for a month now)(maybe) and when they link back to me they call me lovely.
I suppose it is much better than the truth which would be ‘bloody annoying’.
You make me laugh! I like Mika, but then I haven’t had to listen to songs on repeat. I think he would be easy to hate.

Hospital by the River sounds interesting - that subject is a horrific one.
November 18th, 2007 at 1:59 pm
Ha!
I loathe Mika with a passion. We have to have the radio on at work (for privacy, believe it or not!) and the station that’s on plays the same 30 songs over and over again…
I don’t mind some country music - don’t like the stuff about my wife done left meeeee for me dawg; hate Shania with a passion, but have developed a taste for early Johnny Cash and some of his really late covers (Hurt, Personal Jesus)
And those aiaiaiaiaiaiiaiaaaaaiiiiiieeeee singers need to be taken to a deserted island somewhere and fed slowly to the sharks (hey, maybe that’s who the Sirens were?)

Oh LOLOL alright well i have started the meme and saved as a draft, will work on it later.
Have no idea who Mika is atm and too lazy to go look.
Currently waiting impatiently for Castle Hampers order to be delivered, excepting that it is not mine lol its my neighbours who are away at a wedding, and my neighbour couldnt even tell me what was ordered as her boyfriend did it this year, so we are expecting lots of alcohol and maybe some lollies. Possibly a meat pack of some kind also. Which means waiting for it so that the meat or any other fridge/freezer stuff doesnt sit out in the sun all day.
I know who is doing all the deliveries too, grrrr, if they were normal, they would have started yesterday and had them all done over the weekend but no, they cannot do anything on a saturday, so it all has to be done today APPARENTLY!!!
LOL Jodi at the sirens. Guess that means i need feeding to the sharks too, my voice is so much more suited to gospel music than pop, although i quite happily howl away to any music (other than rap) when doing housework.

Ooh, Kelley, I’ve already done this one!
Loved yours though. Come on, I’m sure you’d love those white spangly shoes…really.

And here I was at a loss for what to write. Now I’ve got something!
November 22nd, 2007 at 1:54 pm
Wheee! A good meme will be just the ticket!
