accentuate the positive
it tickles me seven different shades of pink that when a blog post is bereft of comments, the kids over at blogger have programmed it to read:
"no comments yet."
that 'yet' is just so reassuring. its just like a mother's smile or a lover's embrace.
after all they could have gone the other way and programmed it to read:
"nobody gives a fuck what you have to say, you untalented, self-absorbed hack."
but instead they chose the glass half-full option.
snaps for blogger.
snaps indeed.

for fuck's.
i am forced to make the first (only?) comment on a post about having no comments just so people don't stop by, read the post, and snicker to themselves about the jagged little irony of it all.
this is a new low you have forced me down to people, even for me.
This space intentionally left blank.
tobytoby have i mentioned how much you are my hero for using the phrase 'de rigeur' in your profile?
well, i have now.
Well, cheers.
Were you really bitten by a seal?
indeed i was, tobytoby. the story is somewhere in my archives. i'd link to it for your convenience, but its lazy-arse thursday. hence the dismal excuse for a post. and the lack of hairbrushing.
Ah, I had to leave the house yesterday so hair nicely brushed. I am lying, of course, my hair is always scruffy.
Will search for seal story...
well, consdiering that lazy-arse thursday has since given way to go get 'em friday, here you go tobytoby:
the story of la nadine and the hungry, hungry seal.
I am glad you posted the link because I couldn't find it. And also my lazy-ass Thursday may have bled into my go-get-em Friday a little.
I have this tiny tiny scar on my finger from being forced to do woodwork in Grade 8. I lack the fine motor skills and ended up bleeding all over the machinery. Teacher not impressed and even my Mother wasn't excited about the blood-stained cheesboard I brought home.
Much bigger scar from my knife fight/appendix operation. I can tell the story quite convincingly because I was once briefly detained by police for a knife fight incident outside a Sizzler restaurant in Toowoomba.
