"I don't have time for this shit...it's taking to long - I wanna go home.
Page of Pedestals
This here is a page of people I rate very highly, and it is a work in progress so don't get to upset if you're not up here yet...
...WELL? I have to start with my sister Laura Elizabeth coz she's so cute.
Her names for me have ranged from budda to fesser. She's just turned four but wants to turn seven next...untill mum pointed out that she wouldn't get a birthday cake for five and six - so now she's happy to turn five next year.
More photo's to come of Laura, particularly one's of when she was younger because they're all so cute.
Sil is my first sagitarian house mate (living with the third one at present) and they're not to bad as far as domestic cohabitation is concerned.
When Sil and I are together we are easily amused - and that magic generally happens around 5am...Yes it is around this time that Sil and I lose all sense of reality and start thinking that tampon boxes would make really funky gift boxes....you know the one's with the little cherubs on them! It's also around this time that we play 'Miss Saigon' at high volume to the dismay of people sleeping on the floor in the lounge room...ooh and if anyone can solve our eternal dilema of how to spell the noise of blowing air from your lips(I think it's 'ppphhhwwwwwfffffff') ...then please by all means - let us know!
Sil and the boy that's hung in there the longest ( 3 years and counting, otherwise known as shaggy, or possibly Andrew to his mother.
This was taken at Stu and Averil's wedding. Andrew enjoys getting the shit beaten out of him by his girlfriend, and things that go bzzzt.
Susan - is one of the best people you could ever want to know. We don't see each other nearly enough. Susan was there all through high school and we had many a laugh at the preppies! I think it's official that Susan had the worst year in 1999...but I'm sure we'll read all about it in her first novel!
This photo was taken in early 1998, at our farewell party just before we both trotted off to our respective uni's...and I think it was the day before Valentine's day...so you do the math. That was a great little party, the backyard was decked in faery lights, lollipops, popcorn strings and tealight candles, and each guest was given a bubble blower, to dip in the many pots of bubble liquid set around the garden.
...and this is some of the wacky shit we got up to at our teenage "coffee nights"
Yes all right...waxing legs at a coffee night...it's not actually sane...but believe me ...it is the most sane of the things we did do.
As I recall...neither of them actually went through with this...wimps!
The mother of all mothers - the one who should actually be 'credited' as having pushed me into the world - or should that be 'blamed'? Currently residing as far away from me as she can, this very smart woman knows how to have kids - get one off to uni and out of the way before having another... yes, that's right - that baby in the photo is actually my younger self before I went into the past (ED.) - or rather my sister...16 years my junior - oh, and the bald one is my now ex - stepfather, which means i no longer have to rate him at all ( and i don't).
This is the family photo i prefer, since i consider these are the people that matter most.I've just spent a week with these 2 and can't wait to visit again (hopefully it won't be raining for 2 weeks straight next time!
The one affectionally known as 'Muva'. This woman is known for staying up late to watch the cricket and play backgammon 'leftie vs rightie' - so if you call round to this residence at 1am don't be surprised to see a smoking, drinking, feral Ewok shouting, 'COME ON LEFTIE!!!'
Muva collects teenagers, and has done for years. I'm sure the entire youth population has crashed there at some point in time. Perhaps this is why Muva acts so "youthful"...or, perhaps, it is sheer boredom that leads her to the antics as captured below.
As well as collecting Disney movies, Muva also has a furbie, sea monkeys and the Rugrats Chucky doll (Tickle Me Elmo is mine!). When She first got him, Muva would walk around the house with Chucky saying (insert appropriate voice) "Ohhh Tommy".
I really have no explanation for these. But I bet that when these were taken...Muva was giggling hysterically.
Here are two uni friends, Kel and Tanya (otherwise known as Guchi) I shared uni accomodation with these two in first year. Tanya lived across the hall from me and Kel lived in the next cottage. The three of us would spend evenings chatting on icq - despite being within walking distance from each other. Tanya is known for her 'wardrobe' (hence the nickname) and her catchphrase 'kera-fuckin-stoota'.
