I am an animal

A party animal?

I am a sucker for dogs, apes and seals. Actually anything cute, furry and cuddly with a sense of humour. Including Animal from the Muppets but not including my hairy ex boyfriend. Ma na ma na. I try not to discriminate, I do have a beauteous blue tongue lizard in my garden who warms my heart while she is warming her lizardy skin in the midday sun. And Frozen Planet…sigh. When I was a kid I wanted to be Doctor Dolittle, but my best friend got there first, he now works at Taronga Zoo and I now work with children, not animals.


Ol’ Blue Eyes

EDVARD MUNCH and FRANK SINATRA

Famous Marriages in History – On the 12th of December 1957 Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13-year-old second cousin Myra Gale Brown.

 

 


My favourite Muppet

I grew up with Sesame Street and Cookie Monster is my all time favourite. I live by Cookie’s motto: Me so full but me can always eat one more. How can cookies be just a sometimes food? C is for Cookie, that’s good enough for me.

Who is your favourite Muppet?

 

 


School formals – Everybody Run

This is a song for all the Sydney school kids who were ripped off by the guy who said he’d organise their end of school parties, then took their money and ran. Hope the school kids catch up with you creep.


Su Bo

Last night I watched Susan Boyle onstage at the live X Factor Australia TV show recording. She was nervous, humble and funny. I love Susan Boyle because people thought she was kidding herself and it turns out she wasn’t.

I love her because she is the living antidote to the Kardashian family. Su Bo is famous because she has a genuine singing talent and at the ripe old age of 47 she got off her arse and did something about making her dreams come true. I love her dry Scottish sense of humour, and the fact that she lives on her own and has never married. Susan Boyle prayed that one day her wish would come true. I love her because she gives me hope; the hope that if you work hard at your dream you’ll be rewarded. Eventually.

Yes she sometimes reminds me of the scary aunt that all children grow up with; the relative whom your parents want to visit, who offers you lollies in exchange for sitting on her knee and giving you a slobbery kiss.

But I have a dream my life could be…

Mine is to do nothing but write all day without having to supplement my income doing anything else.

What is your dream?

P.S. I think Susan Boyle may have mimed last night, but I can’t be sure.


Perfect skin

Lloyd Cole wrote a song about me back in the 1980s. I was in school at the time but rock stars can’t seem to stop themselves worshipping me. This song is now a prayer. Please God give me back the skin I had then. I’d also like to point out that I was never a weather girl, otherwise my life would be raining men right now.


Wish list for Santa

I know it’s early but here is my most wanted present list:

1. Hydraulic crane bra to thrust boobies up and out. I want to be able to rest my chin on them when I’m tired.

2. New brain or Mensa member’s if secondhand.

3. Long, white porn star fingernails and a slave for chores so I won’t break nails.

4. Children who feed, clothe and bathe themselves, and walk to school safely.

5. New pelvic floor.

6. Home that cleans itself (with no mortgage)

7. Lifetime supply of Lindt chocolate balls

8. Annual foreign holidays with swarthy, sexy stranger

 

 

I must send a copy of my list to Santa.


Troy Davis

I don’t believe that anyone was served with the execution of Troy Davis this week, Mark MacPhail’s family do not get him back. Studies show that the death penalty is not a deterrent to violent criminals and minority groups are disproportionately represented on Death Row. I wish you could help us Dr King.

September 19 birthdays

Today is my birthday, so while I’m waiting for my cards, chocolate, flowers and new car from Johnny Depp and the Queen, I will tell you about other famous people who share my day.
TODAY’S STARS  are MAMA CASS, TWIGGY and GEORGE CADBURY

This morning I ate a kilo of chocolate in honour of Mama Cass and George Cadbury. But I gave up ham, because it killed poor Mama. Apparently this is an urban myth, but I wish Mama Cass had shared her chocolate with Twiggy.

Today also happens to be International Talk Like A Pirate day. Which fills my heart with gladness. What do you get when you cross a pirate with a robot?

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR   2D2

Aye I’ll be thar looking for a pirate for meself, just been keelhauled and be plunderin. I forgot to cast me message in bottle back…arrrrrrrr

9/11

There are so many words that can be said about today, but as I watch the footage from the memorial in New York I weep as I look at the faces of the 9 year olds who will never know their fathers.
