And off I go

by faffajane @ 11/02/07 - 20:41:27

Ok as it is taking over a minute to load pages, post replies etc, I bid you adieu. I am going to find something that I can have to eat, then sit and watch Elizabethetown, which doesn't look very good, but there is nothing else on and if I have to sit and watch one more documentary I may have to scream loudly!

Have a good eveing.

Please do not adjust your sets

Hubby is watching some documentary or other that he taped, about a small tribe in Africa. Anyway what made me look twice, in disbelieve, was the fact that they are going on a hunting expedition and one of the men is wearing a green t-shirt, but nothing on the bottom half of him.

Nothing.

He is bare.

The rest are as naked as the day they were born with a few paintings on them and this one bloke is only wearing a tshirt.

Hope he doesn't get hurt lol:)

My how huge you are

Hubby came home with MacDonalds for him and the kids, realising that I wasn't much in the mood for cooking a roast dinner today. He didn't get me anything as I loathe MacDonalds, and anyway I was still full from my late breakfst earlier.

So I sit here debating with myself what to have to eat.

I fancy macaroni Cheese, but can't be bothered to make it. I could have pasta with tomato Sauce (homemade not out of a bottle) but again that will mean having to get up and cook. I did think of toast and butter (not sauce) but don't feel like it.

Any suggestions bearing in mind there is very little in the house at the mo:)

Just watched a very interesting programme on the telly about Elks and how, for two weeks of the year, they move into a small town on the edge of Yellowstone National Park, called Mamoth. It was interesting watching them taking no notice of the cars on the road and the people trying to dodge them, the tourists they attract and the reason why they are there - to eat the last of the plush green grass before winter sets in, to show off their powress, and of course to mate. They treat it like a holiday lazing around in the sun and eating the grass, plants from hanging baskets and chasing the locals around - well those that dare to get close enough to take a photo.

Amazing creatures and so huge and majestic!

A toasty tale

by faffajane @ 11/02/07 - 15:40:00

My youngest son has just made himself some toast.

i offered him the butter as I was getting something out of the fridge.

'No thanks mum' he says.

' Dairylea then' I ask.

'No thanks' he says.

Thinking strange child perhaps he will be eating dry toast offered him some milk to go with it.

'No' he says 'I'm ok'

So what is on his toast?

Tomato ketchup!

The sun is streaming through my windows this morning making the place feel nice and warm. Downside to this though is I can see that the windows need cleaning ( my mother would be shocked) and there is dust everywhere.

Really should stop sitting here and get under the shower/get dressed, but don't feel like it, though I am sure hubby wouldn't be impressed that I am still in a state of undress when he had to go to work early:)

So there will be a brief respite while I get showered and dressed and pretend I did something other than sit in front of this computer all morning - though I did get up briefly to make egg sandwiches for brekkie:)

People Watching

by faffajane @ 11/02/07 - 12:15:27

Well the party wasn't as bad as I feared. We arrived and hour after it started, not fashionable to be too early and the radiator in the car decided to chose that time to spring a leak - not the best of starts everyone staring while there is steam coming up from under your bonnet!

WE had picked up a friend who spent the evening reminding Nigel and I that we had to put water in the radiator before we set off - thanks hun!

Secured ourselves a few chairs where the football crowd could come over at various intervals to say hello and discuss football.

I remained Sober as I was driving, which enabled me to watch what everyone else was up to with bemusement!

Lots of flesh on display. I often think I should have more confidence to wear some of the gear these ladies wore, but then again I wouldn't be who I am if I wasn't wearing my usual garb. Don't get me wrong I was smart in a pair of black trousers (much to hubbys disappointment who was hoping I would wear a skirt) and a thin longsleeve, visco(sp) top. I did wear a cardigan as predicted it was freezing in the place though that didn't stop the boob tubes from coming out, the sleeveless dress which the wearer spent all night adjusting across her boobs, the woman wearing the basque style top which she kept pulling up, the woman in the shorts that she kept trying to pull over her thighs.

Then there were the men, or one man in particular, that had obviously had too much by the time we got there, who got drunker by the minute, falling over and staggering across the room. He spent most of his time eyes down tops or knocking things over so he could lean closer for a better look. the fact that most people ignored him seemed to make him worse and funnier as the night went on.

Then there were the protective types. The ones that don't want to see their girlfriends/boyfriends/partners out of their sight for more than a few seconds, that watch them continuosly as they strut their stuff on the dance floor. The men that dance to show their women that they can dance badly but have to keep up with the rest just in case.

Did I dance? Yes I took to the floor once or twice. Amazingly so did Nigel at one point, the man who refuses to dance unless it is a slow one with me. But he strutted around, self conciously though honestly most of the party goers were too drunk to care.

But there was one man there who was just absolutely drop dead gorgeous. Dark hair, good looks and a sense of humour to match. He told his drunken mate to calm down, sit down and stop being a pest on more than one occasion, the only person the said drunk would probably have listened to. Accordingly, he has done very well for himself and it is noticeable by the way he was dressed, nothing fancy, but very smart all the same. His girlfriend looked good as well and wasn't what you would call the protective type either, and they looked so good together.

Time to depart and say our goodbyes, fill up the radiator and get home safely, which we did in the pouring rain and here marks the end of a good night.

The woman who indicated at every bend - thank you I know which way the road was bending you didn't have to let me know, but just a hint here, it helps if you indicate at roundabouts and you get in the right lane.

The idiot who decided to overtake on the motorway and cut in front to get off at the next juction - did you not notice it was raining so hard that with the wipers on full pelt it wasn't clearing the widscreen? Why do you think ppl were slowing down? thanks to you I nearly lost control of the car, fortunately I was prepared for your stupidity and maintained control even though i could feel the wheels trying to slide from underneath me. Even so, if there had of been an accident youwould have been long gone and not even had cared you prick.

Oh and to the idiot who through the bottle out of his window - thanks, I just missed it!

Radiator being repaired tomorrow thanks to marvellous friend.
