Lady’s loves and loathes…
by Carly JacobsLady loves…
* Spontaneously getting wasted with Mamma Smaggle on a work night.
* My cousin, who has the EXACT same taste in literature as me, handing me a stack of perfect books to read. FYI our taste goes along the lines of pulpy, trashy real life reads with a very heavy slant towards serial killers.
* Mr Smaggle fixing my bike. I can’t wait to go for a ride around the lake this afternoon.
* Vegie crisps when I’m really hungover. And coffee. And Panadine.
* This Pingu toy that Mr Smaggle’s brother, Mr Squiggle, gave to me for Christmas. When you squeeze it, it makes psycho Pingu noises. I must press it around ten times a day.
* Browny. She is such a loser. One of my readers tweeted about her today and she got so excited that she took a screen shot of the tweet and emailed it to herself. I keep catching her looking at it and muttering ‘People love Browny…’.
* My beautiful hand carved bangle that Co-Dependent Smaggle bought for me in India. I’ve worn it nearly everyday since she gave it me. I love it when you get given jewellery and it becomes an immediate staple.
Lady loathes…
* Being hideously hungover. It was totally worth it though.
* Not being able to eat healthily because I have too many social engagements. I know. Your heart bleeds for me right? I’m actually being serious. I can’t escape wine, cheese, bread and dessert at the moment. It’s killing me. I just need to eat nothing but salad and steamed greens for a week. Blergh!
* How slowly my mossie bites are healing. I’m a big itchy, weepy mess.
* People who don’t listen. Me – ‘Hello, Lady Smaggle speaking’. Person on the phone – ‘Hi Judy…’. Yep. That’s fine. If you didn’t hear my name, don’t by any means ask me to repeat it. Just make one up. Preferably one that doesn’t sound anything like my actual name. That will make me think you’re awesome.
* My teeny tiny cousin suddenly being six feet tall. I mean it’s great for him, he is flipping gorgeous but I used to give him baths and read him stories. And now he drives a car. Excuse me. I have to buy some prunes and replace the batteries in my hearing aid.
What about you angel pie? Anything to share today?
Love Lady Smaggle

P.S One more loathe – WordPress formatting being weird. I’m trying to fix it.
