And what did you think? (Aside from the grammar issues!) That once again she hasn't listened to a word I've said; the night she wanted me to find information (("NOW!")) we spent ages looking at 2-night accommodation. Not uncommon; she's the type who starts asking you a question and then leaves the room before she's finished talking. |

My mum's the type that starts a sentence and gets tongue-tied halfway through. Lately, she's also kept making dirty jokes, which is just bad coming from her.
They say you eventually turn into your mother... XD

- When a half empty bottle of Herbal Essence shows up in your bathroom, and you grin like a moron every time you see it.
- When your family can hold power over you by threatening to hurt the program.
- When your mother knows to stop asking you to turn down your stereo, because MotN at maximum volume is just like being back at the Princess.
- When you're planning to run up to the Princess before another show, just to relive the memories.

"Further to your phone call yesterday we are pleased to offer you the following rates for your members during your conference from 13-19 September."
- And when you discover that the letter exercise you've just written for that sentance is from "Horace Higgins".

- You name your new mobile phone "Erik" so now, whenever you turn on the ignition in your car the Bluetooth screen lights up "Connecting with Erik". I also spent an enjoyable few minutes "Pairing with Erik" to establish our initial connection. Ah, small things etc.

I wish I could name my phone; the best I can do is put a greeting message on it, so when I turn it on it reads:
"GRRRRR!!!
Telstra"
- You fall into a giggling fit at the "Handy" commercial, especially if it's the one where they say "These are TIGHTS!"

Far from it! He was about sixty, bearded and balding with a far from extravagant dress style. Still, yet more proof that Phantom is everywhere.

MCT? (Sorry, I live under a rock.)
I used to hate purple with a passion but had been slowly warming to the colour before the whole "purple moment" thing happened. After that, my tolerance suddenly jumped to all-out love.

Don't worry, it's not a big-name store. It's a small alleyway-like shop in Rundle Mall that sells nice tops and good jeans at bloody good prices. At least I think they're nice. ((The ones I buy at least.)) My sister hates it so much she won't even set foot in the store, which is probably another reason why I shop there; you don't get all those tall-blond-skinny-model-wannabes strutting around the store and a ton of dance/trance/techno music ((some, but not a lot)). Some people think it's MCL whenever I talk about it and drag me to MCL demanding I show them the tops I bought, but they just don't get it! >)_<
I used to be the same with pink until I saw Patience. Now I tolerate it. I don't like it, but I don't exactly hate it anymore unless it's fleuro ((can't spell)), and I think it is a necessary colour in existence.
Necessary and funny.

Beyond the obvious, the only thing better than pink tights would be white tights...
