Lady loves…

* Friday night karaoke and cheeky taxi snacks on the way home with Co-dependent Smaggle.

* Chris Lilley’s We Could Be Heroes – Although Phil is possibly the most painful fictional character I’ve ever come across.

* Getting a secret message from an old friend. 

* Seeing Mr Smaggle this weekend. 

* My special students. One little boy asked me all about my favourite things today – favourite colour, favourite food, favourite movie. All the usual ones. Then he went in a wonderfully weird direction with favourite bread, favourite meat, favourite toe. It was so weird and awesome. 

* Lying on my bed with Roomy Smaggle talking about boys. One of whom is a super good friend of mine and they are crushing on each other. Bless face!

* Home made omelettes with avocado and fetta and Perrier mineral water with lime. Also chicken roasts and red wine.

* My new hair cut. I went to a hair dresser and told him to go nuts. He did. I have a hybrid, undercut, mullet rat’s tail do. Which I freaking adore. 

* Having a date with my Diana Vreeland books… why don’t you indeed!

* Having Roomy Smaggle hand me a glass of wine at the end of a pretty shitty day. 

Lady loathes…

* Hangovers as a direct result of Friday night karaoke. And the hideous video footage proving that I did in fact have a spectacular time. 

* Assignments. So. Bored. 

* The state of my student’s lunch boxes. Chips and chocolate for morning tea and a white bread Nutella sandwich for lunch. Are you serious? Give the kid some fruit. Or something that isn’t white…

* Driving in this idiotic city. 

What about you angel pumpkin face? What’s pleasing and teasing you this week?

Oh yes. Everyone’s favourite segment is back! The theme this week…? Pushers. Here is a list of pushers that if they push me one more time I’ll push their fat heads under water until the bubbles stop…

Airport Pushers

The people that sit practically on top of the gate waiting to board, then shove you aside so they can get on the plane before you and then sit in their aisle seat and roll their eyes every time someone has to get past them. Don’t they realise that there is absolutely no benefit to this behaviour? It doesn’t matter if you’re at the front or the back of the damn line. Everyone checks in, boards and finds their seats at the same time. It’s even more irritating when people push on their way OFF the plane and huff and puff across the terminal only to stop dead in front of the baggage carousel to wait for their luggage. You. Loser. 

Equipment Pushers

You know those a-holes at the gym when you have your weights all set up and you go to fill up your water bottle and you leave your towel there as a REALLY obvious marker and you come back and Happy Pants Muscle Face is stacking weights on, pretending like he didn’t see you using the equipment before? Firstly, I was here first. Secondly he is only going to lift a million kilos once, kiss his biceps and then have a wank, taking up valuable real estate while he does it. It’s the exact same type of person that uses four different pieces of equipment at once because they read in Beefcake Monthly that this ‘saves time’. Yeah. For him. Not for the twenty other membership paying people who are waiting while he plays Eye of the Tiger on his Ipod and pretends that he’s Rocky. 

ATM Pushers 

The people who stand just a little bit too close when you’re using the ATM. Back off. Seriously. It makes me really uncomfortable and I can’t possibly go any faster. Cash disposal is pretty much set to a clock. Deal with it. 

So lovelies… what’s your rant for the day? Care to share? It’ll make you feel a million times better!

Lady Loves…

* Getting an impromptu sleep in this morning! Classes were cancelled and no one called me early for work. I’m still in my pyjamas. State. Of. Bliss.

* Detoxing. Living between two cities means lots of celebratory drinks upon my arrival and return to each destination. Meaning that my diet for the past month has been cheese, crackers, wine and kebabs. It’s all vegies and fruit for five days people!

* T2 peppermint tea. 

* Chatting to Mr Smaggle on Skype. 

* Mud masks. 

* Getting some much needed Lady time.

* Meeting my best friend’s best friend on Saturday night. We clicked instantly and got very messy together. 

* The new airport show ‘Airways’. It’s set in Tiger terminals through out Australia. It’s like someone took the thing that I loathe the most (Tiger Air) and made a whole show that just bags the shit out of it. Excellent. 

* Buying myself flowers. 

* Having my wife come to visit me. 

* Doing a detox that requires ‘gentle exercise’. Hell yes. I’m all over yoga tonight. 

Lady Loathes…

* Spending too much money. 

* People offering me work and then taking it back. 

* People who shop slowly. It’s not the last thing you’re going to buy! Make a decision and get the hell out of there. 

* Again, never being warm enough. 

* School being slow. I moved specifically for the course and when they cancel classes or water down the subjects it really annoys me. 

* Detoxing. It’s hideously boring. 

* Currently not having any vices. I gave them all up! I feel so ordinary…

* Spending $6 on possibly the shite-est DVD EVER! Called Wild Child. It stars Emma Roberts, the no-talent niece of Julia. That should have set off alarm bells. 

What about you poppet pie? What’s tickling your pickle? Or making you all frowny?

So… yeah… sometimes I still wear clothes. Can anyone tell who the mystery guest photographer is? It’s Browny! Some of my old school readers would remember the good old ‘outfit shot a day’ Browny years here on Smaggle. She came to Melbourne to visit me for the weekend. It was lovely to see my wife…

* Dress vintage. I’m thinking I bought it on Chapel St a few years ago. 

* Footless tights from DFO in Canberra

* Cardigan from Supre

* Earrings from Diva

* Shoes Doc Martens from DFO in Melbourne

Things have been mega busy in Smaggle land! The weekend was spent shopping, eating and drinking. Ate a massive Vietnamese pancake thing and bought a killer pair of retro Levi flares that will totally fit me after a good week of gastro. What have you been up to angel face?
