Most of my entries are Friends Only because I often post pictures of my son, and I had some odd men with creepy interests friending me when I did :o/
But I am usually happy to add anyone who would like to read my journal, so just comment if you would like to be added :o) And please let me know how you found me!

- 10:33:23: Mmmmm, hot apple & cinnamon porridge :oD
- 11:17:34: Josiah is playing with a zoo-themed felt board set. He just put hair on the giraffe :oD
- 11:17:50: And I am fast coming down with a rip-roaring sore throat :o(

- 11:33:00: http://twitpic.com/ahsol - Josiah's felt creation - "Raff got handbag an lo hair!"
- 11:48:46: @Yellow_andBlack I don't have any soluble stuffs *cries* Josh is on late shift, but might get him to pick some up on the way home!
- 11:49:10: @Yellow_andBlack You reckon salt water would work? Minus the swallowing part, of course!
- 11:54:40: @Yellow_andBlack I know! I'll gargle brandy AND swallow it. I bet I'll feel no pain then :oD
- 12:04:46: Every time I get up to do something productive I get distracted doing something for Josiah instead.
- 12:51:11: I'm trying to tell my throat it needs hot liquids, but it just wants hot food. Same with my belly.
- 17:32:47: @iexistence But people still have the choice whether or not they eat it.
- 17:59:18: @franthestrange I like the taste. It's my favourite fast food.
- 17:59:49: @franthestrange And it's way cheaper than the only other equivalent we have here, which is Hungry Jack's.
- 18:00:31: @franthestrange So you never eat any food that is unhealthy or can be classified as 'garbage'?
- 18:00:58: @iexistence Any the spitting thing could happen in any restaurant, not just fast food, not just McDonald's.
- 18:01:22: @xelyna Why 21?
- 18:20:11: I've managed to convince Josiah that a bath is a really good idea by making tonnes of bubbles. Wish that would work for vegetable eating.
- 18:32:38: Josiah just called his navel his "pee-button".
- 18:57:03: @franthestrange We haven't had pizza for since we were at your place! But honestly - I love the taste of McDonald's. You know I'm weird.
- 19:01:58: @franthestrange So long as we always agree about farts :oD
- 19:09:28: Only got up from a nap 2 hours ago and am ready to go back to sleep already :o(
- 19:34:41: I'm totally going to have a glass of cold Milo.
- 19:36:24: I keep buying different brands of fried rice-style quick rice in the hopes of finding one that doesn't taste bad. I'm always disappointed.
- 19:43:07: @kristywisty I love home-made fried rice, but sometimes I just can't be bothered! Rice is nommy.
- 19:43:30: @markgladman What did he name them?

- 22:06:37: @franthestrange Josh just downloaded the "Fart For Free" app on his iPhone. #3 is the best!
- 22:14:51: @franthestrange He thinks it's hilarious, so I think I'm rubbing off on him or something, lol.
- 22:19:37: Josh keeps downloading iPhone fart apps. It's freaking hilarious. I can't stop laughing and my throat HURTS!
- 22:20:15: @franthestrange Try Atomic Fart too, lolol.

Late this afternoon we dropped Josiah off at my Mum's for a couple of hours so we could go to a meeting, and we got him a popcorn chicken snack box from KFC on the way. He was very excited to be having chips and "nuh-ettes" for dinner.
When I put him to bed tonight I was asking him what he did while he was at Mama's house.
"Eat chips," he said.
"And what else?" I asked.
"An nuh-ettes."
At that point I noticed he had a booger in his nose, so I picked it out and said "You've got a nugget in your nose."
He stuck his finger up his right nostril and said "Got nuh-ette in nose."
And then he stuck his finger up his left nostril and said "Got chips in nose."

Do any of you have a copy of Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace I could borrow for a few months?
I'm taking part in the Infinite Summer challenge, and even second-hand copies of this book are on the expensive side. I have been able to source a decent price on a new copy from the US - even with shipping it's cheaper than buying locally! - but thought I'd try and loan one first.
I'm more than willing to send money to cover postage costs.
(PS. I do seem to have the 'flu. I'm going to bed for the weekend. Night!)

| You Are Like a Cat |
![]() You are curious about the world but still an individual. You prefer to be a solo explorer. You enjoy your alone time, but you also like some quiet company from time to time. You crave companionship, even if it means just spending time in the same room together. |

No. I don't believe there are any confirmed cases here in Australia, but even if there were, I still wouldn't be worried. I don't believe it is any more deadly than any 'regular' strains of influenza.
| You are Extroverted, Conscientious, Agreeable, Neurotic and Open |
![]() You have medium extroversion. You're not the life of the party, but you do show up for the party. Sometimes you are full of energy and open to new social experiences. But you also need to hibernate and enjoy your "down time". Conscientiousness: You have medium conscientiousness. You're generally good at balancing work and play. When you need to buckle down, you can usually get tasks done. But you've been known to goof off when you know you can get away with it. Agreeableness: You have high agreeableness. You are easy to get along with, and you value harmony highly. Helpful and generous, you are willing to compromise with almost anyone. You give people the benefit of the doubt and don't mind giving someone a second chance. Neuroticism: You have high neuroticism. It's easy for you to feel shaken, worried, or depressed. You often worry, and your worries prevent you from living life fully. You tend to be emotionally reactive and moody. Your either flying very high or feeling very low. Openness to experience: Your openness to new experiences is medium. You are generally broad minded when it come to new things. But if something crosses a moral line, there's no way you'll approve of it. You are suspicious of anything too wacky, though you do still consider creativity a virtue. |
