It seems the nose job went well.  Daddy Dearest arrived home yesterday.

We were expecting him to call to say he was on his way around lunch time, mid morning at the earliest…

But no, 7am the phone rings to say he’s on his way.

What kind of a time is that to be kicking sick people out of a hospital?

The good news, my trip to the Chinese Doctor last week was productive, and the herbs seem to be having an effect.

The bad news, it’s not doing anything to make me less irritable.

And the ugly news… Daddy’s in getting a nose job!

Apologies for the blogging break, but there’s just not been anything worth writing about.

Lets see… What’s been going on…

Well, I still have the neck of a lizard, only now I seem to be part lobster, part lizard and part panda, as you can see from the photos below…

Oh and I also have the bowel of a pregnant woman…

(more…)

Next time I have the bright idea to go to the doctors and actually take the antibiotics they prescribe…

Somebody…

Anybody…

Please, just… TALK ME OUT OF IT!!!!

Am I too young to be thinking about incontinence pads?

I currently have the urge to do copious amounts of swearing.

And as anyone who knows me will testify, that is not like me at all… The last time I had the urge to swear (which I gave in to in the end) was around 1987…

So it’s safe to say, I’m not a happy fraggle!

I went to the doctors earlier in the week to find out about this rash on my neck.

Ever since I watched the first episode of Chuck the other week I just can’t get that song out of my head…

I got a strange email yesterday from swydm.com (yes I still refuse to call it reezle!) it seems I have a premier membership for 10 days and I have no idea how.

All very odd…

Well let’s see… What’s been happening here…

I finally got my mitts on the new camcorder, and it looks pretty good. They do three versions, all identical except for the colour. They do Silver, Wine and Blue. QVC didn’t have the Blue so I went for the Wine as a change from the bog-standard Silver that everything seems to be at the moment.

Well it must be getting close to summer…

I can always tell because I can’t stop singing B-52’s songs… *shrugs* don’t ask me why, I just live here…

All I know is a good resounding burst of “Love Shack” at the top of my lungs is a sure sign that the good weather has finally arrived.

It’s been quite busy here of late… Dental appointments, Opticians appointments…

I was at the dentist this afternoon, and I think I’ve seen it all now.

I sat in the chair and I was asked to put on a pair of safety goggles…

Now maybe it’s me, but I’m a bit confused why I need to be wearing safety goggles while someone peers down my throat.

Apparently it’s for health and safety, in case they poke a tooth and some of it shatters, flies through the air and lands in my eye, in which case I could sue…

Personally if that happened I’d probably be more concerned about suing for what on earth they were doing to my teeth to cause that to happen than the fact that it went near my eye… At the rate we’re going people will have to be placed in hazmat suits just for a trip to the doctors at this rate!

I feel grubby…

Actually grubby is too nice, I feel downright dirty

I was looking out of the window, as you do, and there’s two doves sat on the fence up near the house. I ran to grab the camera because the looked so cute.

Turn the camera on, focus the shot, I’m just about to take it when suddenly one starts having it’s wicked way with the other one (who was so impressed she didn’t even stop cleaning her feathers!)

A few seconds later and it’s all over, and they’re both staring in the window at me stood there with a camera pointed at them.

I feel so dirty… It’s like being caught watching the neighbours (I’d imagine anyway )

Of course stood there with the camera on them I also felt like I’d just been found making birdy porn

My eyes, my eyes!

Well, technically that should be my eyebrows, but I’m getting ahead of myself.

It’s been kind of a rough week, which partly explains the lack of entries (it’s also down to nothing interesting to write about too…)

There’s been good news, bad news (nothing bad, just news of the non-good kind, rather than “bad news” as such)

Of course, as is usually the case in these instances, even the good things have a slap in the face following close behind, just to keep my feet on the ground (or 6 feet under at least!)

So… Last Wednesday was the first thing of note…
