7 Things...

Years ago Michael tagged me for this meme and I've not done anything about it until now. Ok, it wasn't years ago, but it seemed that long ago. Anyway, here's my contribution to the Meme of 7 thingys.

7 things I plan to do before I die:
1. Watch my children grow into two fine young gentlemen
2. Cry when they leave home to strike out on their own
3. Kiss and cuddle my grandchildren
4. See the Eiffel Tower and the London Bridge
5. Pay a visit to Jo and Fizzy with Walker
6 Own a home that's on one level, with plenty of space for all manner of computers and drumkits to fit
7. Get down to some kinda decent weight

7 things I can do:
1. Cook a mean vegetarian lasagne
2. Speak my mind (sometimes at the most inapporpriate times)
3. Know the inside of a PC better than anyone else at work (which says alot for them, poor sods)
4. Get plonked after only 2 wines
5. Always be there when my kids need me
6. Crave to be in too many places at one time
7. Drive my kids to work/school, whilst dressed in my jammies.

7 things I cannot do:
1. Speak another language
2. Keep quiet when someone is saying something that I totally disagree with
3. Ever understand the rules of cricket
4. Stop smoking
5. Stop eating things that are SO bad for me
6. Wear an A-cup bra
7. Stop wishing that New Zealand was attached to Canada.

7 things that attract me to the opposite sex:
1. Sense of humour
2. Genuine smile that reaches their eyes
3. Intelligence
4. Strong arms and broad chest
5. Good kisser
6. Their ability to put up with my mood swings
7. Natural rhythm (for dancing of course!)

7 things that I say most often:
1. "I love you"
2. "Good Morning, Blah de Blah Medical Centre, Lisa speaking"
3. "How was your day at school today hun?"
4. "Cameron!...Make it work!"
5. *handing the phone to Ryan "It's for you"
6. "How hard can it be?"
7. "Would you please get away from that screen and come and eat?!"

7 celebrity crushes:
1. LiquidTHANATOS
2. Bryan Adams
3. Nicholas Cage
4. Richard Gere (in Pretty Woman)
5. John Travolta (the older one, not the Saturday Night Fever one, bleech)
6. Any one who plays a role where they need looking after (what can I say? I'm a sucker for a hard luck story)
7. This was too difficult, I don't actually have any celeb crushes, I prefer to work with the here and now, if you know what I mean. Besides, no. 1, the rest I came about with a lot of head banging pressure to fill up the spots. So I'm cheating by filling in no. 7 by talking about it.

7 people I want to do this:
Taking into consideration this has taken me so long to get around to doing, I suspect everyone has done this already. If you haven't, and you want to participate, then feel free to do so. I won't tag anyone with this...if you want to do it, tag yourself.

*gasp* Who IS that masked font?

This far down the track, it's sometimes hard for me to remember where Dan and I came from. Not in the "Who am I?" or "What is my purpose on this earth?" kinda way you understand...but of how we met and how much that totally spontaneous meeting unexpectedly affected both our lives and the lives of those around us. It's been over 3 years since Dan stumbled across this blog, and almost 3 years since we actually met in person for coffee. Next February it will have been 3 years since I told him I was in love with him. Don't panic...this is not going to be a post filled with sunlight and rainbows, extolling the brilliance of the above-mentioned man and all he means to me. Would I do that to you? I mean to say...this is the first time I've put font to screen in over 4 months, do you really think I'd come back and get all gushy/mushy on you? Nah...that'd make even me wanna gag. The fact of the matter is...that it HAS been such a long time sinc...

A Wandering Post

Hallo Everybardee! (that's my Sharon Osborne impersonation.) I'm listening to Lemar's "If There's Any Justice" while I'm sitting here wracking my brain as to what to write today. And this song coupled with the recent brain-hurty questions that are being flung at us via Lisa's blog have me wondering. How many people out there are sitting in unhappy partnerships/marriages out there? How many are bobbling along in their marriages, for fear of not wanting to be alone or for the sake of the children etc? I spent 15 years with my husband before I finally realised we just weren't the same people we used to be and no amount of compromise was going to get us through the rest of life together. I met him when I was 18...seperated from him at the age of 33...one a teenager, the other a much different woman and the mother of two boys. I don't regret this time of my life, not one iota...there's a lot of learning and growing to had in those 15 years. My ...

Sleep, Blog, Sleep, Blog, hmm

Working extra hours will of course take it's toll on my body...and to be honest, things are going fairly well in that respect...that was...until last night. Cos ya see, last night, I didn't go to bed at the usual time of around 1030ish. I sat here and read my entire blog history...and although that's not HUGE because I've only been blogging since the beginning of the year....that's still a fair amount of reading to get through. That, coupled with catching up on some of your blogs (didn't always comment on them, forgive me)...I ended up crawling into bed at 1.35am. 1.35AM!! I haven't stayed up that late since I first started playing backgammon on the MSN Zone (and then we're talking about 3 and 4am, I must've been nuts!). Now I know that 1.30 isn't an unusually late night for some of you...but for me? it's big these days...real big. So this morning (some of the only free time I have this week, I...am...knackered. Why do we do this to ...
