Meet Barry.

This little guy is Barry the sheep, my cartoon. I am in the process of writing a book about him and so wanted you to get to know him. He will be a feature on this blog from today onwards.

Appreciate the effort please. This is not easy to do on paint :)

ahh. life

Lying in bed with flu. Here one tends to re-evaluate life and set goals (usually unrealistic ones) for the days to come only to make you feel better about yourself. So for me its to blog more.. because I have become very slack and I know how you all look forward to my many adventures and to be more proactive. Remember though I'm still in bed so tomorrows reality could be very different.

Two very cool blogs to check out by the way : flimsythekitten.blogspot.com and shmittenkitten.blogspot.com.

Dont worry they're not all animal rightsy.. one is cartoons and the other is just classic!

Royally Bound

So the much awaited Royal wedding went down yesterday.. and wow what a spectacle. Kate is one of the most beautiful brides i've ever seen and well,William - what more needs to be said. However looking at photos yesterday I did form the opinion that I would much rather have wed the Will from 10yrs ago than the balding prince of today..

Will back in 2007 :

The Prince strangely moving backwards to a frog:

Small rant and rave!!!

Boys. You are so gullible and so stupid. While thinking how to approach this post I often had to stop myself from sounding like a raging feminist lesbo however these days I think life would be a whole lot simpler if we were to re-evaluate the relationships and dynamics that exist between male and female. I'm not denying the fact that girls need boys and vise versa, that when you're in love life is great. What I am saying however is that boys far too often test their luck and think its OK to say what they need to say if it'll benefit them in the end. There is the old argument about how can boys sleep with as many girls as they like and be considered cool or a ladies man while girls will be called slappers if they do the same.. (I think Christina Aguilera wrote a song about it!?) After a while it gets lame and everyone just wants the whining to stop but a friend of mine recently told me a story that made me think about this whole girl/boy saga and realize a thing or two.

So my friend got a random BBM request the other day from some dooshy name that she had no idea who it belonged to, but still she accepted seeing as Black Berries belong to 90% of our peer group and she thought she may actually know this guy. Anyway turns out that she doesn't know this guy but he is being chatty so she makes conversation. A lull in the conversation is experienced (no one wants a lull) and so to lighten up the convo and say good bye she sends "would love to chat but i'm watching porn.night". For most this would be inappropriate but this friend of mine is a little cooked and so she says whats on her mind or in this case what she thought would be funny. Anyways thinking the response would be non at all or a "night", she was surprised when Dooshbag replied with a "send me something, I'm horny". The conversation then went "like what?". DB: "I dont know, you tell me" friend: "easy tiger". DB: ok. Check BBM friend list 2 seconds later and Dooshbag has deleted her.

At first I didnt understand how this random got her pin or where he came from etc. etc. , but then she went onto explain how he'd got the pin from a mutual friend and thought he would just see if he could try his luck. I mean seriously who is going to start a kinky porno conversation with a complete random over BBM.. NO ONE. Well unless you belong to a late night escort agency. Now I want to know if i'm wrong in being super pissed off at this guy for having the balls to just push his luck, make my friend feel like a slapper and then the fact that he just up and leaves. I do blame her slightly for trying to be funny and playing along for a minuscule period of time but still, who is this oak and what makes him and other guys think that its ok to try with girls in the unlikely situation that it might end well for them!? Basically what is coming across is " I think nothing of you and dont care how you'll feel if I start being creepy to get lucky, and if not well you're not worth my time for anything else'.

Just a thought : If a girl was to approach you boys like this, yes at first you might think you've hit the jackpot but you'd also consider her a creepy whore. So what makes it Ok for you to try on us!?

FML

First fine ever! R400 down the drain. No social life for me this weekend :(

Cheers to the New Years.

Happy New Year everyone.. another year flown by. A toast.. to the dooshbags? Corny I know but I had to.

Everyone complains about new year being the most overrated night of the year, yet we all still feel the need to make a massive hooha about it. I certainly had the most eventful four nights (including new years) of my holiday in St.Francis. A friend and I drove up on the 27th to spend a few nights with some Stellies girls. Our first night there was by far the most entertaining. The four of us girls got all dolled up for a night out at Cobs Cove- the St. F equivalent of Fez. Lucky for us we were staying with someone very well connected in the area which came with many added bonuses. While making ourselves lungable my dear friends confesses to us how she has recently become a "one can woman". Our target for the night therefore: to up her stamina.. OBVIOUSLY!! Our job was soon taken over early on in the evening when a certain girl ( who liked to bat for the other team ) took a liking to one can.

From the moment this Lady Lover singled one can out of a crowd of 400 with a seductive thrust of Jack Daniels shots, I knew where I'd be for the rest of the night. Right there on that couch being fully entertained by this poor girl who was trying so hard to seduce my very hetro sexual friend. By the end of the night I was in awe at the sight of two empty bottles of Jack and the Lady Lover trying to pry open One Cans jaws to fill them up with more JD! I was not too sure how this scenario was going to end however it ended very abruptly when we looked over to see that Lady Lover had basically redecorated the floor with her Jack Daniels dinner. Needless to say we were out of there very fast and in hysterics. One Can had now moved up to Two Bottle Jack.. although when we got home she could not string and English sentence together, or distinguish the difference between a slice of cheese and chicken fillet (which she ate) ... did I mention she is a STRICT vegetarian!? I had definately brought the right friend with me :)

Pillow thoughts

Lying in bed, so tired. Eyes shut so that I resemble an Asian person more than usual. Thinking thinking thinkiiiing of something quick and fun to write but alas.. I cant. Did get an au-pairing job which is very cool, the kids are too cute. Makes me broody ;) The next boy I lunge better watch out..urrm that is IF I was actually having any luck in that area. I feel like the boss of coming right has banished me back to the desert. With one long finger pointing in my direction, all he says is "go" and I know where he is sending me, all the way back to Kalahari.With heavy feet and a hanging head I make my way. . .

Day: 50 (over exaggeration) I am in the desert and this drought is really getting to me. It's so hot here and I have no supplies. Obviously no water or food..it looks like I might die here. Luckily for me I have had enough practice this year with such dry circumstances that the harsher effects of these conditions have not fully taken their toll. Hopefully tomorrow things will be looking up.

Peace from the dry lands.
