I know. I was in Coles last week and heard "The Phantom is in store now". Just for a milli-second, before the neurons kicked in and started processing.....well........there's really no need to explain further...  Being highly amused with my silly mind...then went on to have further fun and think...It's only 9 in the morning....Duh, the Phantom's still snoring away comfortably in bed...no chance of being in the local Coles at this hour! XD |

And then he appears out of nowhere, purchases his tuna and rockmelon, before disappearing...
YKYAWW...
- You hear "A contrast between the sacred and profane" and laugh.
- You smile when you walk past a tank of propane gas.
- You're excited because a new CD you bought has "The Fledermaus Waltz" on it.
- You're extra friendly when serving a woman from Melbourne who's wearing a Haigh's t-shirt...
- And chat to her for a good 10 minutes about how Ant likes Haigh's- she was a Warlovian too!

Apparently Haigh's are made in Adelaide- that's a way to entice Ant to come to SA, Mars!

*whip*
The Haigh's store sits in the Bee Hive; the corner is not referred to it as that much any more, but it's still a busy intersection. It's ... where is it ... on one of the corners that marks the end ((or the start, depending)) of Rundle Mall. Quite a small store, actually, but that might just have been the space I went into; there might be more upstairs, who knows? I don't know if they have a separate factory somewhere or they do some of the smaller production via the shop.

- You think of a certain picture when you find you have to type up an advertisement that has an address of "Manly Beach" ((does it help to know that it's for a pet store selling dog collars and leashes, cat brushes and dishes, fish bowls and food, bird cages, and water dishes?!))
- Ants choose to climb and walk around on your collection of Ant CDs instead of taking the easier path and just going around them.

- Your anaesthetist uses Ant to distract you while inserting your drip. (I believe the question was "So what's old Anthony up to now?")
- Your nan brings you her Ant CDs to listen to in bed.
- You fight the drowsiness of painkillers to come on here XD

Lucky. When I got my injection today all they distracted me with was a purple band-aid with dinosaurs on it. :/
And I've got one but I'm not sure if it's Warlovian or just crazy ((so I'm not adding it until someone gives a second opinion)) :
- You sit out on the cement as the sun sets and grind your callus' raw carving "Unexpected Song" ((badly)) into the cement with a small triangle of bone, afterwards sitting back to watch the ants scramble along the contours.
Yes? No?

No, then? XD
I often sit or lie on the cement at the back; usually at night when the stars are bright, then I count the shooting stars and hope to see a collision >)_< Tonight I was sort of keeping Bella company as she hunted lizards in the bushes; it was a bit warm but the air con was getting a bit much anyway.

That's not crazy, as such....more slightly unusual XD I like to lie outside too, hence why I have a hammock- I get covered in a weird rash from the grass otherwise.
What was your injection for Mars? I hate one-off injections, especially at school!

I read in the paper recently that David Beckham has just signed on as "The Face of Sharpie Markers". As if he doesn't have enough money already!
Somehow I think Anthony was rudely overlooked for the honour! I bet he loses sleep over it, too

That's silly, they SHOULD have silver!!
It was that free cervical cancer one. I've got another one in two months. I had all my HEP et cetera ones in high school, one for each year' >)_< I'm a bit worried about the one I just had; I haven't had any side effects ((at least I don't think I have)) but I did see that report on the news the other night where some women ended up having convulsions and such from that particular drug.

Thanks for reminding me, Mar. I need that one too, preferably before it becomes expensive. XD
As for side effects, from what I know reactions like that are extremely rare and the benefits outweigh the risk factor. It's like those parents who refuse to immunise their kids on the off chance they might have an adverse reaction. Personally, I think it's well worth the risk.

The only problem now is I can't donate blood until a month from now, or so; every time the blood van is here I always miss it for some reason, and I didn't even find out it was here until the morning I was to have that injection. Thanks mum. -)_-

I think you'll find that the "side effects" were a hysteria induced frenzy due to the age of the girls being immunised and the number of them and the funny mob thing that happens when someone has a panic attack and it can quickly pass around the room. There have also been similar occurences at other mass immunisations of teenage girls. And similar reactions in studies done of mass immunisations of teenage girls when they were injected with just sterile water!!! The power of mob behaviour is not to be underestimated. Congratulations on having the injection Mars. I went to a fascinating presentation last year by Professor Ian Fraser, the developer of the vaccine. He is an amazing man, and passionate about eradicating cervical cancer. It is the number one disease among young women in Africa. (That's where I got the info about the group hysteria). (Not sure how cervical cancer vaccination relates to being a Warlovian, but since when have we let going off topic get in the way of a good discussion XD) |

^ Reminds me of the House episode when they're on an aeroplane and all present the same symptoms because they're basically subconsciously copying one another. Gotta love the power of placebos. "Sterile water! Help!"   Edit: Oh, and YKYAWW you break any awkward silence with, "So... how about that girly punting?" |

*giggletantrum* I'm going to use that next time there's an awkward silence...
- You watch a compilation vid of Phantoms punting on YouTube and try to figure out the ratio of girly to manly punting. Doesn't help a few Phantoms decide to switch XD
