Just goes to show what an intelligent system Plurk is running on

I’m currently listed as the 61st top Aussie Plurker.

As a Plurk emoticon would say:

Seriously you guys, join up and Plurk with me!

How much of a bogan do you think I am?

I took the test (which is actually quite good really) and got 26%, making me a Paddington Poofter. Totally not expecting that result since I said I would wear trackies and ugg boots down to the shops.

A Paddington Poofer is described as: Ponsy Tall Poppy. Born with a silver spoon and probably silver non-spill mug as well. Could probably even make a latte. No time for you.

Bear, now you are 5 (35)

Dear Bearenstein

Today is your fifth (35th) birthday. This is the date you were actually born, not the day your Dad spotted you at the pet shop and fell for you instantly, or the day we brought you home and made your brother turn into a bumbling mess.

You were so cute when you were a baby – I’ve just spent 10 minutes watching baby videos of you (Dad says I do this every year) and cried at how cute and small you used to be. And you had stripes! And crinkle cut fur!

Sometimes you’re outright stubborn, sooky or in the mood to get in mama’s way:

and you have very (very) strong opinions about the Litter Kwitter training. But you do try… sometimes.

Our snuggle times on the couch after dinner is my favourite part of our day – you get to nuzzle under my chin(s) and I get to sniff your fur, which is my favourite smell in the world, and the one I missed the most when I went to Europe at Christmas.

You’ve taught me patience and resilience and been the best bundle of fur we could have ever asked for – I can’t imagine my life without my Bear.

And yes, you will be getting kanga meat for dinner tonight.

Love, Mama


Gettin’ my firey on

Check me in my picnic blanket skirt, backwards Fire Warden hat, double chin and fire extinguisher at work today:


(blockouts to protect the holy innocent and high levels of religious memorabilia – at least you can see only 1 bible and 1 candle)

The trick with fire extinguishers is to make sure you sweep at the base of the fire, but they’re just as much fun if you try to extinguish the boss  :o)
