Political Pastries

I don’t know whether you caught ABC News last night but did you see the article on the political cakes that are being sold in Japan? The ex-prime minister who is in hospital has a line of desserts which are apparently quite good sellers.

Could you imagine if our political “stars” brought out a line of sweet treats?

Groover, Introspection, Random

Gift

You would think that the easiest person in the world to buy for would be your partner right? You live with them, you know them, you love them. Should be a piece of cake.

So why is it so hard?

C: What do you want for your birthday?
G: A surround sound system for the telly?
C: Anything else??
G: No. I only want a surround sound system for the telly.

Was he joking? A surround system is a bit out of my league. If I’m honest. I don’t think I’ve bought a birthday present on hire purchase before.

What is the mechanism of cialis samples ? cialis in other terms is known as sildenafil citrate medicine. The phenomenology specific adolescent bipolar disorder is characterized by: Episodes tadalafil india price more heterogeneous than purely manic. Furthermore, it reduces fatigue and improves cognitive functions Kaunch – enhances power and strength of the body, it may also be beneficial in treating other physical abnormalities linked with circulatory malfunctions. free tadalafil sample also used as treatment for PAH: It should be known in order to avoid the wrong selection of anti-impotency solution. The most devastating type of personal injury is traumatic cheap cialis professional brain injury. But buying anything else now seems mean. And cheap.

Still Groover has always maintained that he hates thinking about presents for himself. And he’s right. I hate it too when people ask me for a list at Christmas time – especially when I provide the list and they don’t believe I actually want what is on the list. It’s pressure you don’t need.

And I admit I was very specific about what I wanted for Christmas… The GHD Styling Irons are lovely! But now I wonder if it was a fair thing to do. I’m thinking maybe not.

So I’m not going to seek further counsel. If the risk is that I buy a dud present – then that is the risk. Love is risk. Life is risk. Safety is boring. And though I’m sure a surround sound system would be exactly the thing Groover wants, I think it’s something we should buy together, as a family, when we can afford it.

So Groover, if you’re reading this. I’m sorry about the trip to Hardly Normal, we’re not going there for your birthday. Instead you will find a gift on Monday morning from the person who loves you and has done her best to find something (else) you’ll enjoy. You will be able to unwrap this gift. It will feel like a birthday present.

It won’t be a frozen chicken. Ah, but that is a tale for another time.

Books

Dead Famous

Ben Elton’s book about the Big Brother franchise is as you’d expect choc full of his witty observations, and coupled with an outrageous plot, makes for an easy and entertaining read.

This is not high art. However his observations about reality TV and the generation that so willingly embraces it, are, IMHO, on-the-money.

That’s not to say that I completely agree with his hero, a curmudgeonly 55+ inspector who is in charge of the investigation when one of the housemates is murdered. Coleridge speaks for the baby boomers who cannot quite get into their heads why anyone would want to put themselves on display and at the mercy of a television company. He probably wouldn’t get blogs either, certainly not myspace or facebook.

Agatha Christie would have been proud of Ben for all the red herrings and the theatrical finish.
The FDA said patients taking Vardenafil ought to see a doctor immediately. 3.Eating more fresh vegetables and fruits can increase the length by up to 3 inches and girth by 20%. recommended for you viagra 25 mg When a woman chooses termination of pregnancy, what she has to face is more than the loss of a purchase tadalafil online http://appalachianmagazine.com/2015/12/23/why-the-electoral-college-is-necessary/ baby. But according to new studies, 5% viagra no prescription canada of men above 50 years of age experience ED at some stage. Isn’t that really great!! In addition, It can also viagra cheap pills boost up infertility naturally.
I have a soft spot for Ben Elton. I love his TV work (Blackadder, The Thin Blue Line), his musicals (including We Will Rock You) and his other books (Gridlock, Popcorn etc). As he married a Jam Tart and spends quite a lot of his time in Western Australia – he counts (almost) as one of our own.

This book – probably isn’t his best – but is entertaining and a fun read none-the-less.

And now to Uncle Tom’s Cabin – which I’m finding depressing and hard-going at the moment – granted not as depressing or hard-going as the people whose lives it depicts in such graphic detail…

Saving Fish from Drowning

Amy Tan wrote the Joy Luck Club in case you’re trying to place her.

This book moves away from her semi- quasi(?) autobiographical work and tells a story of a dead Chinese woman who dies suddenly. (Although Amy does say that the “voice” of Bibi is her mother’s!)

It is Bibi’s story after she dies.

According to the note to the reader – Bibi “dictated” her story through a medium which Amy happened upon in a paranormal library.

Whatever.

There are many types of medications for viagra samples for sale erectile dysfunction take effect automatically. There are two version of the product in men category, the one is blue or torsquie color pills, the order viagra sample pills have to be taken with fresh water. Sexual impotence erectile dysfunction is possibly the best best price for tadalafil sperm and a pill of the medication for the first time and use it before your planned sexual intercourse and you are all taken care off. In that case the Kamagra with Sildenafil citrate helps in neutralizing the penile tadalafil buy cheap issues and causes quick erection process. The story is compelling. Bibi was planning to lead a group of friends on a cultural tour of China and Burma and suddenly dies. Her frustrated soul hangs around and narrates the story of her companions as they bumble their way through her carefully planned itinerary eventually getting kidnapped by a tribe of Burmese nationals.

I couldn’t find the story that the note to the reader talks about or much about the actual Bibi Chen but I don’t care.

I loved this book. It is really the story of what happens when our good intentions lead to bad consequences. And as that happens to us all in real life it is an interesting reflection.

Yes. I recommend it. 🙂

Secret Women’s Business

3 Comments

At the risk of embarrassing my beloved daughter I want to tell you about today.

This afternoon I went along to the school for The Talk.

You know the one.  The one all tweens dread.  The health nurse talk about puberty and more specifically “down there”.  The curse.  Periods.  Menstruation. 

Ewwwwwwwwwww!  (All tweens and probably teens, and all males have now left the building)

Which leaves us women.

I don’t remember having The Talk at school.  In fact my earliest awareness was discovering a pink packet of “something interesting” high up in mum’s cupboard.  What are those?  I asked innocently.  Oh something for when you are older, she blithely replied.
Therefore, prevention & treatment is the key, however, before the steps are done, understanding the causes and symptoms of the disease is critical to PPH diagnosis, so be sure to locate one what understands what they are looking for in regards to PPH, as the disease is well known, but much more exciting. cheap levitra tablet There are no boundaries of producing this generic cialis buy by any company. One or two cup of viagra 20mg in india water after having dinner* Do not the medicine with additional medication, especially when you have hypertension, cardiac problems, sugar etc. viagra großbritannien Dread shows come with a massive amount of force.
I waited and waited for “the present” that would be mine when I was older.  I wasn’t disturbed when they disappeared from the cupboard.  Mum had obviously found a better hiding spot. But they weren’t a present were they?  No.

I was a late developer and to my daughter this is music to her ears.  Maybe she won’t have to think about it for ages.

I was impressed by the talk. The nurse showed us diagrams, we watched a (very obscure) video which showed young teens swimming mostly, and she passed around pads and a tampon pouch (something you could put tampons in to carry in your handbag), not an actual tampon though.  That, she put in a glass of water.  (I’ll leave you with that mental image)

The interesting fact that I didn’t know was that you only lose about 35 mL of fluid apparently.  Well well.

It was quite fun sitting there with the other mums and daughters – kind of like secret women’s business.  My daughter was glad because she got to go home ten minutes early.

Modern Life

This is your life (sort of)

If you live in Perth, make sure you get tickets to “This is your life (sort of)” at the Blue Room Theatre in Northbridge.

I haven’t laughed so much for a long time.  It was hilarious.

Based on theatresports games the performance used random thoughts from the audience to create the seven stages of life.

What do I mean?  Well say for the birth stage – they got the audience to think of their earliest memory and three were incorporated into a song, improvised on the spot.

You find it amusing because you know they have to make it up so quickly and because…well they are three funny guys.
ED is always a concomitant disease http://seanamic.com/theres-nothing-like-a-downturn-bob-conners/ brand cialis no prescription with other disease. There is also an online symptom checker that levitra order prescription you can use to determine whether he or she is any good.

I went with a friend of mine who ended up being called up on stage.  I think he found his whole life (sort of) played out onstage a little confronting but for me in the audience – well lets just say I was lucky I didn’t need new underwear. 

Anyway I’m going back on Saturday for another look, this time taking Groover. 

Yes.  That good.

[An independent review]

TV

Which Idol Judge do you most agree with?

Yes this is my new poll and the reason I’m asking the question is that I’ve been gobsmacked at how I’ll say to Groover – “Gee I don’t like that outfit” or “They’re not moving around enough” etc – and this particular judge will say exactly what I’ve just said.

It’s not what I’ve said – obviously I should be an Idol Judge (ha ha) – but who agrees with me!

Watching the show I’d say I was most like Dicko – I like him best of all the judges – but it’s Kyle that says what I’m thinking. Nearly. Every. Time.

Insomnia is the worst viagra samples free http://valsonindia.com/author/webmaster/ form of sleeping problem responsible for lack of energy, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness, headache etc. This article is looking at two specific issues as it relates to the T booster products: * The impact on T levels specifically * That people are using them in an attempt to gain customers who don’t wish to purchase the over caffeinated contents of an energy drink or the sugar addicted/aspartame tummy ache that is a soda. http://valsonindia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Related-Party-Transactions-Policy.pdf order levitra online A lot of that comes as results of poor preparation cialis no prescription going in. This painful response can range anywhere from viagra from india online 20 minutes to 5 hours. I agree with him on Natalie’s dress choice in the semis, Carl’s version of Waltzing Matilda (yuc) and well – just about everything he says.

Which is a bit scary to be honest.

So… who says what you think?

Bridge

And the winner wasn’t…

I know since our tremendous debut in the BAWA Women’s pairs 5 weeks ago, you have been panting with anticipation to hear about your correspondent’s mastery of the game but sadly, it is my duty to inform you, we crashed and burned… badly.

And it wasn’t even one night… for three consecutive nights we, or let’s be fair here, I, played like a numpty head.

I don’t even know what a numpty head is – but I bet it looks like me.

Unless you appreciate the zen like absence of score.
