Thank you so much for the message - I'm feeling much better and saner now I'm safe back in Oxford again. It's probably good for one's world to tilt a bit occasionally - it's just a shame it had to be a sad event. And to think not so long ago we were being girly over dresses. Let's head back there.

Bad luck with the ears, congratulations on the dress - it sounds gorgeous. What colour is it? Sorry, that's an absurdly girly question but I'm quite interested in what draws people to certain colours of clothing, especially ball dresses. Your diary is all green so I'm tempted to imagine it in shimmery emerald or something. Thanks for your message, by the way. I felt all soothed. xxx

Ah yes, the weird and wonderful world of the bra. I don't have a ... err ... deficiency issue but the difference between some wonder-lifting wonder padding and, err, not wonderlifting wonderpadding is ... terrifying to behold.

Pleeeeease tell me where you got your new bra. I'm desperate for some new tshirt bras, and I cant find anything decent anywhere :(

I'm sorry for my note coming across as subscribing how you *SHOULD* feel; I swear, that wasn't my intention. You are absolutely entitled to feel *whatever* you may feel about *any* situation. I just meant that maybe it might make things easier or perhaps, lighten the load on your shoulders, to try looking at things from another perspective. Again, I'm terribly sorry for the "should," I *hate* it when people "should" on each other. -cat

I loved your entry from the third person perspective about yourself; I'd actually be rather too scared to do this. The patchwork of other people's opinions is rather eerie soemtimes.

i smiled a lot reading this entry. my sister gets confused with me heaps because she knows i care so little about what people think of me in terms of what i think of myself, but i analyse what people think of me. i find it fascinating. i think it tells so much - not only about what they think of me, but about themselves. :)

Yes, I was requesting a print girl, and no, the DVDs didn't work. Thank you for reminding me to tell you that. I'll send them to you whenever I have a package for you. So, you can give them to someone else or keep them or something. 'Cause I don't know what to do with them. And if I send them back to you, the cops can't arrest me, right?

I had a huge crush on Mr Rochester when I was young - I find him faintly silly and throbbing these days though. Give me a boy in a dress anyday that's what I say!

Just to jump on the Sense and Sensibility bandwagon, I love it passiontely, I think, in the main, because it's so flawed. It leaves so many unanswered questions that it becomes fascinating ... what exactly is Austen not saying, you know? Are we *really* meant to support Marianne's marriage to Brandon? and are the men so deliberately, err, crap? I think it has some wonderful moments as well - particularly the Evil Dashwoods talking each other out of giving any money to the Dashwood girls.

No, we do not lounge in America. There are no lounges, no one uses the verb, EVER. And my kitties certainly do not spend most of their days lounging on various soft things in my house. WE WILL NEVER LOUNGE! But don't you care about my smelly feet or my quickly disappearing voice?

When I can afford it (I have one whole dollar to my name until Tuesday next week) I'm going to buy some Natio Green Tea & Amla shampoo and conditioner. I sussed it out when I had training at Natio a few weeks ago and it smells wonderful. Natio products are wonderful and natural, and the shampoo has no sodium lauryl/laureth solfate (yucky stuff). If memory serves they're around $14 each (250ml), which wont be so expensive for me once I get my long hair all chopped off. It's driving me NUTS! I think you might like this shampoo. If you're interested in having a look you're best bet would be to go to Myer :)

I'm so glad you liked the movie! My favourite Zaphod moment was when he went through that turbine thingy on Magrathea, slammed into the ground on the other side, and immediately gets up and says "Whooo far out!" hehe His hitting the ground looked very real *shudder* Would you like one of my swanky Hitchhiker's towels? Re: Pantene. That was my shampoo until I found out a few things. First, it's pretty much the same stuff as Pert 2 in 1. The shampoo has a conditioner in it, but they dont tell you and sell a conditioner along side it. Second, it doesnt do anything to improve the health of your hair. It actually puts a coating on your hair making it look all shiny and healthy, but it's still all damaged underneath. Also a lot of hairdressers won't touch your hair if you use it because of the coating. If you get your hair coloured it wont last as long as it should because of it. Most hairdressers will tell you to come back 6 WEEKS AFTER you stop using it. I guess you're now in the market for a new shampoo huh?

Btw, lots of companies are quite fraudulent. They dont lie exactly, they just dont tell the whole truth. They lie by omission, but courts dont see that as lying, so they get away with it. I've learned quite a lot of things about a lot of products through my course. It's interesting but can be quite annoying too - I'm on the lookout for a new shampoo because of what I found out about the one I was using. *sigh*

Hitchhiker's is brilliant! I LOVED it. I want Zaphod's babies *heart flutters* My brother didnt like it very much, but I think he had expectations that didnt end up being fulfilled. If you can bear in mind that the storylines for the radio series and the books differ, you wont have any problems accepting the movie. I want to see it again! *obsessed*

After my mum had my brother all the hospital staff would give her to eat was green jelly. So in her opinion, jelly is a vile substance and should never be consumed. Poor mum; 26 years later and she's still not forgotten it. I don't blame her, really. *rambles*

I forgot to say, the Catholics were always trying to turf Elizabeth out of power and they would have - and did - jumped on anything to achieve that. Robert Dudley was married, so if Elizabeth was having an affair with him, that would have been the end of her. And then when Robert's wife turned up dead at the bottom of a staircase with a broken neck (some say she fell, most say she was pushed) Elizabeth distanced herself from him. It didnt take a genius to see what that have done to her and if there was anything to be pinned on her it would have been, no matter how far fetched it was.

Oooh tut tut. I dont believe they ever had sex. Elizabeth was too smart for that. Her mother was executed under a supposed charge of adultery - she'd apparently had sex with just about everyone, her tennis coach, her body guard, even her brother. Because of the reputation that gave her (it was all bullshit btw) Elizabeth was branded a whore by all the Catholics in the country. So I think with the fate of her mother hanging over her head, she would had to have been very stupid indeed to mess with Robert Dudley. She was just way, way too smart for that.

That Philippa Gregory book..... does she have Elizabeth shagging Robert Dudley? I tried to read her book 'The Other Sister' which was about Henry's fascination with Anne Boelyn's sister, but didn't get past the 10th page. I hate historical fictions. They make me mad *anal retentive*

The meme:
1. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.”
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions. ;~)
3. You will update your blog/site with the answers to the questions and leave the answers as comments on my blog.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.
Here are your questions:
1) Which major arcana card do you feel most represents the truest inner you?
2) Why did you chose the field of law?
3) Do you work with any particular deities or energies?
4) Which three people have most influenced your writing?
5) Where do you feel closest to the Divine?

Woo hoo - this is a fantastic game. Here are the questions. 1) What has been the great gift (not necessarily tangible) you have ever received 2) If you existed at any other point in space and time, who, where and what would you be? 3) What is your most treasured memory 4) What are your personal rules for living 5) And I seem to be in the habit of ending on a frivolous one so … if you were an oreo cookie, how would you like to be eaten?

Don't worry, I have followed you faithfully, in manner of Ruth; I just hadn't got round to updating my favourites yet. And what with Diaryland being down and the work losing the Internet, I've slipped a bit in my diary reading, so I had the pleasure of glomming all your entries. Given the lack of chocolate in my life at the moment, I truly believe you're the next best thing :)
