Lycra Longing

I'm rather fond of a pun, so I need that last bikini from We Are Handsome - because I know everyone wants to see my bear bum.

It's the name John West rejects, that makes John West the best

Do you ever mix up your metaphors, confuse your colloquialisms or have lyrical lapses?

My flatmate and I have a new visitor to our house. His name is John West.
John West's name must always be uttered in full - "John West".
John West was named after he got to eat the good tuna (it was Sirena actually - so full of unfishy deliciousness that it makes me understand how someone can think that tuna is chicken).

Everytime he drops by, I immediately think of the old Gilette shavers' tagline and add in his name;

"John West, the best a man can get".
This is annoying because I know it is wrong and yet I think it every time I say his name. Grrrr.

Last night I thought I might have overcome this. Our neighbour knocked on our door looking for her lost cat. John West was sitting next to me on the couch and she jumped with joy at finding him.

Except it wasn't him.
It was her.
And her name was Ophelia.

Ophelia! What kind of name is Ophelia? It certainly is no John West, that's for sure.

So I have taken a stand and when visiting our house, Ophelia is John West and the will be no mention of shaving or pussies.

Get off my computer screen Keira, I am trying to get work done. Knowing you are swanning about Venice and wanting to steal your dress is not helping me achieve this.

Postity Postity Post Post Post (and a chicken)

Pestered her this morning and the stubborn Kimberlee said she wouldn’t do another post until I had.

Done. Your move.

…Meanwhile, speaking of posts, have you ever seen Savage Chickens, drawn on Post-its? Here is my fave: My life, as summed up by a chicken and a worm.

What up Stinky?

Best Gift Idea Ever. 6 month Soap subscription from Sweet Petula for just under $AUS50. Not just for those who are olfactorily challenged (though what a clever hint), but also for people who like getting parcels in the post.

Want something wrapped for the act of handing over? How about a soap dish? I think the coolest thing to do is use a little cupcake stand.

Not Nuts

I know I have often been accused by some of loving trash, but seriously, how gorgeous is this...
