Random Thoughts

* Wanna know why I don't have a tattoo? Not for religious reasons, not for pain reasons. No - I don't have a tatto because, frankly, the thought of what it will look like when I'm all old and saggy is enough to scare the living daylights out of me!

* However, I can't wait to get a belly ring. As soon as I can sit down and still see my navel (without it disappearing in some sort of marshmallow-effect). Don't think I'd ever get a nose-ring though, and I still don't have pierced ears.

* My son gets air sick. He does not get train sick. This trip across Australia by train is starting to sound better and better... And with a stop in Broken Hill for a couple of opals - yeah!

* There are some blogs on my blogroll that I feel too unworthy to visit - even though I've blogrolled them. Strange, hey. There are others that I DO visit that I feel too unworthy to comment on. There are still others that, when I comment, I realize I shouldn't - cos every time I do I come out feeling stoopid.

* It's amazing how something to look forward to - something new to do, or a new place to go, or a new experience coming up, or payday - can change how quickly the working day goes by. Or the working week. Or how you feel when you get to work.

* I took this pic 2 days ago - wanna hazard a guess as to what it is?



* I'm voting for Karin. The girl can SING!

* Isn't life online amazing? Within the space of half an hour I dropped a comment on an author's blog, emailed a South African artist to tell him how much I live his work (and got a response!), and found out there are no online auto-translators from English to Xhosa within the first few pages of Google search.
