It’s My Birthday… Let’s Dance!

It’s My Birthday… Let’s Dance!

ey gorgeous creatures! Just a quickie from me today because it’s my birthday. I’m off to play golf (I think it’s that game where you poke a ball with a stick right?) and drink beer. For real… and I’m super excited. I worked my little but off this week so I could have the day off but I couldn’t resist popping a post up because that’s just the kind of internet obsessed weirdo that I am. Plus I know that so many of you read Smags with your morning coffee and I get very stressed out when I think about people not having anything to read with their Scotch Finger biscuit. I just can’t cope okay?

And because it’s my birthday and I’m the boss, I have a de-lurking request. I’ve got a few questions I’d love for you to answer. I just want to know what kind of weirdos are hanging around my blog… it’s a screening process. If you’re too normal, you get blocked. That’s the rule. Just copy and paste these questions into the comments section and let your freak flag fly.

On another note this is the 8th birthday I’ve celebrated on my blog. That’s freaking crazy talk right? Just wanted to take this opportunity (before I drink too much wine) to tell you how much I appreciate you guys visiting me every day. I don’t like to get too sentimental (because I’m actually a little bit dead inside) but I really, really, really love you guys. Like a lot. Thank you. You all had me at hello. *tear*

    What’s your name? Nardia

    What’s on your dream pizza? Salami, cheese – of various kinds. That is all.

    How did you and your best mate meet? On a high school writer’s camp. We didn’t like each other much. She thought I was arrogant. Now we’ve been friends for nearly 25 years. We’re not gushy, lovey, spill your guts BFFs. She describes us both as a bit both emotionally challenged. I love her.

    What show are you currently binge watching? Coming off the back of The Bachelor. Trying to avoid binge TV watching. Also trying to write a book. Struggling with both.

    What’s on your dream pizza? One of those dessert ones – fruit, plenty of NUTELLA and marshmallows.

    How did you and your best mate meet? In primary school. Our mutual friend knew we’d hit it off so she tried to sabotage any chance of us becoming friends (out of jealousy) – but we realised after a short time that we were two peas in a pod and her plans to keep us apart weren’t gonna work 🙂

    What show are you currently binge watching? Old eps of Gilmore Girls – always picks me up out of a rut. Always.

    Who was your favourite Spice Girl? And why? Probably Posh – something about her made me want to grow up and be fab 🙂 Haaaaa.

    My name is Melanie. I live in Santa Barbara, California. I once took a piece of candy as a kid. Then felt guilty and went back and threw a nickel on the floor 🙁 My dream pizza is the one my husband makes from scratch with sun dried tomato pesto and basil, topped with Parmesano Reggiano cheese. My husband is my best friend and we met working at the same place, but my best mate is my horse, Sierra, a beautiful Bay with a Blaze.I love to watch Big Bang Theory and I like Posh Spice.

    Firstly, just have to say, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I remember stumbling upon your gorgeousness back in the day when I discovered I was blogging but didn’t know it and wanted to “find” other bloggers. Back then it was your amazing style that drew me in. I still love that but I love your sassy more and I’m very proud to call you a friend. x

    What’s your name? Nikki

    Where do you live? Brisbane, Australia

    Have you ever stolen anything? YES! In Year 1 we visited a bakery and half the class stole some dough, myself included. When we got back to school they searched our ports (yes it was Queesland!) and lined up all of us who had smelly, warm dough in them. We then got hit over the hand with the teacher’s ruler – IN FRONT OF THE CLASS. Thank goodness times have changed … never stole another thing though!

    What’s on your dream pizza? buffalo mozzarella and the most delicious tomato sauce ever

    How did you and your best mate meet? my best mate is my husband … and we met at work

    What show are you currently binge watching? We are between binges but recently come down from a binging high watching five seasons of Friday Night Lights on Netflix … I still wonder what Tammy and Coach Taylor are up to!

    Who was your favourite Spice Girl? And why? Posh. Anyone who can hold a pout for 20 years deserves my vote.

    • Maddie 9 years ago

      Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t stop crying over Friday Night Lights! I don’t even understand, I hate football and I hate teens, why have I lost the plot over this show? Currently on a months long slow-mo binge (because I can’t handle the idea of having no more Tami to delight in) and hoooly shit I am obsessed. I keep having dreams about what Smash and Tyra and all the early season characters that have been written out are up to. Biggest regret in starting season 4 – no more Smash’s mum :'( Despite the months (years?) long come down I will no doubt be facing, I regret nothing 😀

  16. Louise 9 years ago

    What’s your name? Louise

    Where do you live? Brisbane

    Have you ever stolen anything? Yep. When I was a silly teenager and things like that seemed fun. I only did it once but the guilt struck me so bad. Now I look back and think what an idiot I was as a teenager.

    What’s on your dream pizza? I’m not a huge pizza fan but I do like my husband’s homemade peri peri chicken and salami pizza.

    How did you and your best mate meet? At school.

    What’s your name? Laura

    What’s on your dream pizza? mushrooms, pepperoni, olives

    What show are you currently binge watching? Nothing! Uni eats my soul during semester time and I don’t have the brain power for TV. In my summer break I plan to watch Mad Men, Orphan Black and finally finish Sons of Anarchy even though I saw a spoiler the other day.

    Who was your favourite Spice Girl? And why? Posh Spice, she’s a bit fancy, like me, I’m a fancy lady 😉

  20. Sarah 9 years ago

    Birthday’s are my favourite!!! Hope you have a smashing time out on the golf course and that you always have your next beer ready to go before you’ve finished the last!

    What’s your name?
    Sarah.

    Where do you live?
    In the beautiful city of Adelaide 🙂

    Have you ever stolen anything?
    Absolutely. A tiny toy koala, batteries from work, hearts. The usual.

    What’s on your dream pizza?
    I actually really love a good margherita pizza where the ingredients are fresh and bursting with flavour! But otherwise, I’m one of those weirdo’s who love pineapple and anchovies. If either of those are on a pizza, I’m pretty happy. Mostly because I will get the pizza to myself.

    How did you and your best mate meet?
    We worked together. She actually took over my role when I got a promotion. Being around her makes me a better person.

    What show are you currently binge watching?
    Well, it was The Bachelor. As of tonight, it will probably be The Bachelorette. Guilty.

    Who was your favourite Spice Girl? And why?
    I don’t know if I had an absolute favourite. Posh always looked lovely and I liked Sporty because I like sporty, active people. But I think it might have been Scary, because she was pretty wild and crazy and different and I like wild and crazy and different.

    What show are you currently binge watching? A Korean Drama (I LOVE Kdrama) called (*cough) Divorce Lawyers in Love.

    Don’t know how many years now that I’ve been reading your blog, maybe five?! I don’t meditate but I read Smaggle – that’s my alternative to yoga/meditation, all of that stuff that’s meant to help you chill out. I love to have a cup of tea and catch up on Smaggle – even better when I’ve been busy and there’s a back log of posts I haven’t read.
    Hope you have a good one <3

It came form this off little pizza shop in Edmonton called, Terwilligar Pizza. Man, I loved that pizza. LOVED it. They gave you the tomato cut up in a little container to put on afterwards. Strange and delicious! Oh and the base. So damn good. Fat and fluffy not commercial pizza-y at all.

    How did you and your best mate meet? Best chick friend and I met in high school in 1991. Husband and I met at a youth group in 1995.
