Flying Squirrel Super Hairdo Attack!!!

A-vast ye Scallywags!!

Guess who spent far too much of their weekend playing Treasure hunt on Facebook Fluff friends? That application is deviously addictive. Mix squirrels and pirates and I’m so there!

Ursh (my wife) had a bit of an adventure (The way getting caught in a tsunami is getting a bit wet), when her brakes failed on the Demon car! Apparently she was turning at a decent speed when the brakes just up and decided to quit! It is a testament to her powers of driving that:

1. She didn’t crash and end up mashed into (through, over and around) a fence and
2. She managed to drive home (from work – over an hour in traffic) with no brakes

Stunt drives should eat their little hearts out in envy at some of the things she’s done, trying to tame that vindictive vehicle! And people are still silly enough to ask why I don’t want to learn to drive!

I have a nifty new haircut. Back and sides are sheered super-sheep short but the top of it is still slightly long and smooth. It sort of looks like I’m an army chick wearing a burette made of human hair. (Which in hindsight does sound rather creepy). But it looks…interesting! Army with a splash of pixie and a hint of French poodle. You need to see it to experience the full effect!

Movie Reviews:

Shutter: - This movie was made by the people who did The Grudge and The Ring so we expected something a bit better then we got. I think the reason we only turned it off half way through (instead of the first ten minutes) was the scenery, as it was all filmed in Japan. However, Egad! The American actors spoke Japanese in a way that made us spasm in horror every time they opened their mouths. We now fully understand just how patient Japanese people must really be!

Horton hears a Who: Is rather cute. I’d like to have met Dr. Seuss, he had an interesting mind. Also, it seems, a fetish for tassels. They pop up everywhere, from on creatures heads, moustaches, ears, tails and even horns! I wonder what Freud would say? (Something about mommy issues and tablecloth perversions I bet you!)

Forbidden Kingdom: Was everything you could hope for in a classic Kung Fu movie! A Monkey King, Super flying double kicks, a dopey American who cant do Kung Fu (until two days of overlapping montage sequences makes him better then monks who’ve been at it 40 years), a woman who refers to herself in third person at odd times and a Bad Guy with too much eye shadow. Perfect!

So it hasn’t been a hot day, I found four marbles on my walk (Jovvi’s are easily impressed by small balls of coloured glass) and the cat was too full to plough into all my mushrooms, so I’ve had a very good Day! I hope you can say the same!

She who is undeniably a great warrior!! < - - sorry that’s spelt “Worrier”
