george elliot, you are endearingly stupid. xx

i'm going to sleazeball this weekend - theme is 'game on'.


Costume ideas?

you know, i really hate it when people post about how boring LJ is and how they are so over it and cannot be bothered and will likely remove their journal. i really do hate those people. it's like - oh god, shut the fuck up. who made you soooooooo above everyone else? posting about it in your LJ is so gratuitous and pretentious.

but - fucking hell, LJ is really boring and i can't be arsed updating it and i find the LJ etiquette kinda weird / stupid and i wish i was better than giving into my urge to log in occasionally to follow the few that are still on my friends list.

sorry, i know that sounds wanky.

for a very long time, i have been fantasizing about being able to tango like this:




brett and i are taking dance classes together at the moment. so far we've learned the cha cha and samba. we don't get to learn the tango until the second semester which means that i need to learn all of these other styles that i'm not interested in (next week is the waltz) until us plebs get to learn the good stuff.

how insane is that routine - jeanette and brandon slam dunked it. yes it's from 'so you think you can dance'. laugh, i care not.

hi everyone

i just wanted to say that, like Twitter, masterchef is crap and not worth talking about.

that said, i still respect those of you that are fans.

xx em

ps: it appears that i am watching 'so you think you can dance?' as i type this.

so, um.

i am supposed to be working on a presentation about disclosure for work and i am procrastinating.

look, there's jesus!

so yesterday i left work to go to a meeting and found this little lady sitting on our doorstep, shivering, terrified, filthy and starving. I think she was dumped - and if she wasn't dumped, she hasn't been receiving any love.

I volunteered to take her home - i've fed her, bathed her, spent hours picking all the fleas off of her that i could find, have wormed her and given her loooooots of cuddles.

i have to find her a home before i get attached to her - i haven't named her for this reason and didn't let her sleep in our bed last night. So please, if you know anyone that is a kind animal lover who just so happens to want a kitty (remember - a kitty is at LEAST a 10-15 year commitment!), pass them my contact details.

she is SUCH a smoochy cat that I am thinking of exchanging Jet for her (not really!).

She's a domestic long hair, brown tabby with a white chest - and the smoochiest kitten I've met in a while. My guess is that she's 9 weeks.

... "The time of your eternal life"? Pfffffffffffffffffft.

I am just pissed off that Hyde Park will be closed for three months after that ridiculous little man with way too much money to play around with comes to town.

Can someone please tell me what "<3" is supposed to mean?

Fiona has not received your last poke yet.!!!!

She'll get it the next time she logs in.Go back home or return to the previous page.

I find it suitably convenient and irritating that enrolments close shortly after an election gets called.

Last night I got slur-drunk with oldtownhooker, decided at the end of the night that I was still in fine shape to ride my bike home - jumped on it, and was fine until I crashed into a bin.

This is Ryan. I work with Ryan and he is on my list of boys that I would marry if I wasn't already married (along with Callumpie, Giles and Marty Party)

Refresh, refresh, refresh.

Someone come peel me off the couch.
