Sol rain on your wedding day is supposed to be lucky.

MY GOD does linen ever wrinkle. I'm trying to iron it so I can trim the ends straight and square and then hem them, but as soon as I get it off my (tiny) ironing board, it's wrinkled again.
I hate ironing, so when I do it I want it to work *rage*

LaBelle - my MIL lightly sprays the linen with water, screws it into a ball and then irons it.

It's not ending well. I've come up to a barrier and I can't get past it without unleashing the past and it ain't pretty. Fall at your feet.

My swear word of the day is convolvulus because it sounds like it should be a dirty word.

I don't like working with linen or faux fur. it makes trouble! but the end results are pretty wonderful! Also, sometimes a light interfacing can make a difference when ironing linen! just an idea!

I find that simply steaming linen is a lot easier than ironing it, if you don't have a garment steamer then just hang it up while you take a shower, it isn't quite as effective but it still usually works fairly well.

Mortal - if I was a New Zealander, your song would get me all randy!

I'm having an alcoholic cider... I'm a cheap drunk.. hic.. I love the world!

Oh on a side note the alternator in my car is stuffed to the tune of $1300 (thank goodness for extended warranties).

Got a replacement one series piece of new BMW shit for the weekend. Took it out tonight and it was as gutless as the Hyundi i30 I had last weekend.

Maybe I need to tone down my lead foot. Nah, I'll just drive the manual Impressa. I love that car, we have been through some serious shit together.

Thank you.. I'll just fly over to your house for the cupcakes.. yummy.

PJ Thank you for the anniversary wishes.

Random fact:

When a colleague at work did my astrology chart, she found that almost all of the planets were in scorpio (I have two that aren't).

She believes in that stuff... and well we don't talk anymore. Apparently it's like being a Scorpio on steriods.

*runs off and googles it*... okay now I understand why she wet herself - I'm wetting myself as I type (and I kinda like it) - must be the alcohol... hic

Gaah theatrical contacts are weird. I can't blink too hard and I see a ring of blue around my vision in dim light.
And I look weird with deep blue eyes, instead of my usual brown. I don't want to look at myself in the mirror because it's WEIRD. Boyfriend says I look good, though...

Soup time! Tomato and roasted red pepper (out of a box, though. Not scratch).

I'm fine with me touching my eye, but I don't let anyone else near my eyes. Apparently if one can't get one's contacts out on one's own, someone holds you down and picks them out for you. And then you don't wear contacts.

I had a friend from Australia when I was in university, and every once in a while she'd do a hilarious impression of a Canadian accent.

I keep shocking my BeauMonsieur when I try to give him kisses because I'm wearing all sorts of fleece clothing and statiky slippers.
