December Chit Chat

greatly well done too !   

Carla - what is your avatar of?

Dior - rally like your avatar. Messages on doggies are cute!

Thanks Ocean; would be fun. But NY is a long way from LA! Have you ever seen how they do shoots of cars and motorcycles? I dont have this type of equipment, out of my budget range, but here's a pic

Wow! That's some serious lighting!

Wouldn't want that kind of lighting in the Bathing Suit Fitting Room!!

only if UV

true

Thank you theminis! I´m going back at January 7th!  

Playful, I like Dior´s dog pic too, always liked german shepherds (never had one though).

My avatar is of my horse, I took it one morning she was waking up. Lot´s of stories, but I won´t bore you with them. When I say "mine" I don´t mean something I went and bought. No. There was a very special horse that I had. I bred her with best stallion in the world I could find and here is the foal (young horse now)  Nothing like the mother, nothing much I hoped for, but these things you can´t order...   

I typed in most popular youtube vidoes and this one came up first. Parts of it are hilarious!

Shoot, just realized I  should have put that vid in Jokes and All Things Humorous.  Sorry.  Feel free to move it.

That was funny the baby Panda and its Mum still cracks me up

This is interesting.

I'm surprised DiCaprio never got an Oscar. Very interesting

And I´m surprised Edward Norton hasn´t won one.

A link to the Luscher Colour Test is here....
It can be quite an enlightening or useful tool.

I believe it's well respected and used professionally
to help understand people with emotional problems.

It's always been spot on for me over the years   

Interesting color test. Some of it was true but some definitely was not.

Posting this for no reason...
other than it's an amazing hand built desk.

I just did the test too. Oh my.......what an outcome. It was very interesting...

I've been a secretary many times over and I've NEVER had a desk like that!!!  Maybe wrong jobs????

Engineering genius!!!

Superb craftsmanship. To think it was made over 200 years ago.
Exquisite!
Lucky Hermann Goering didn't get his hands on it.

Sure beats a Kipling desk....

how much truth in those words
HOW MUCH!!!

Shame on me, I wasn't here and didn't see you talking about my profile pic with the karma dog.
A belated thank you for the flowers

I grew up with a German shepherd and when he died, I was crying for 2 weeks.

 I did it and it told me "the data string submitted is not the right format".  I guess that's accurate in a manner of speaking . . .  

Oh Dear

Then do not allow it to happen in your own life...

  

awesome secretary cabinet

but what I really like is Melbert´s avatar   

that desk was beautiful. Kudos to whoever owns it for taking such good care of it. Thanks for sharing Joanna

Seem's to be a bit of a funny atmosphere today ... I put it down to the last "Turbulent Days of 13 !!!"

So to cheer you all up, I want to tell you what happened to me last night...

I travel a lot with work, this month I have visited countless airports, and have always checked for Esquire magazine in every country..to no avail.  I was so jealous of Nicky who picked one up AT AN AIRPORT !!! Why was I soooo unlucky...
I began to give up....

So last night I checked in at an Eastern European airport, the ground staff were having a bad bad day, they were checking the weight and dimensions of all hand baggage!  I knew my weight was spot on, so no problem! or so I thought... but they pointed out my zip was broken (it's been broken for 3 years) and asked me to buy a new one...cue massive hissy fit!  They backed down, but said the weight was on the button, and to make sure I did not get anything in Duty Free as they would be waiting at the gate.... I WAS ON A HIT LIST, but I didn't care all I had to do was get on, I wasn't going shopping anyway

So wondering through to the departure gate, what did I see... not one, but two Esquires, and believe me they are hefty Mags.  I picked them up tried them under my puffa jacket they kept slipping and were just unmanageable, the best I could do was take a pic to show a friend (here on COH).  So head bent, and defeated I walked the long length of departures towards the B***** who were the reason I was leaving my man behind.....

Suddenly I had a brainwave, I ran as fast as I could back and bought both mags..shot into the toilet, shimmied up my skirt and stuck both mags in my knickers ... Sadly for George I was expecting cold weather so was wearing industrial strength Granny knickers + Primarks thick micro fibre cosy tights .... HOT ..... but not in the lacy panties way.

I got through the gate and thought all my troubles were over, only to find my 2 George's were on the move south, by the time I started to board Georges face would have been bang on, my bang on, if you know what I mean.  The Esquire bit was heading mid thigh.  

I was last getting on, wobbled to my seat where the stewardess told me to take my seat asap........ OH but how, I couldn't bend, well not without puncturing a lung ... I asked, no I begged to use the loo ... I got a negative, just a sit down quick...

I had to come clean, I bent into the stewardesses ear and explained the whole thing as quick as I could, she allowed me into the kitchen, where she turned her back and giggled as I shimmied up the skirt and I produces two George Clooney's out of my knickers!

If only I had known... George and George would have stayed on the shelf .... like myself!

" />

Oh no....what a story...the things we do....although it wasn't funny for you thanks for giving us a chuckle. I needed that today....  

WWHS - Well that's one way to get George to kiss your ass!

Oh my that was funny - thanks for the laughs!

Oh WWHS that is really funny. I would have loved to be on that plane   

Great story wwhs.....all you need now is another chance to see him and get them both signed.
You could then tell him where they've been !

  

LOL wwhs, real original thinking   

thanks for sharing wwhs. You write well and kept me giggling thru out your story

40 degrees in Melbourne today, in USA terms that's 104 - its blinking hot, thinking my car wheels may melt on the way to pick up the kids, who have been studying in luxurious air conditioning all day. No doubt they will faint when they come outside... Thunder storms later, hopefully, love a nice Thunderstorm after a hot day. Tomorrow 34 still hot but bearable. Theres the weather forecast from your friendly Australian correspondent. Time to hop in the pool I think.

Phew, that's hot! We're settled at a balmy 29 degrees, day and night.

I wish we could get UP to 29, but that would be F and not C. We're staying in the low 20s (F not C) with fog as thick as pea soup! So much fun to drive in! However, the trees look glorious with a fine coating of frost on them.

Im so jealous of frost coated trees, bucket list to spend at least 1 Christmas back in my homeland surrounded by Jack Frost Snowmen and Family. Yep Katie hot is an understatement, its just uncomfortable and forget sleep, there will be a low of 26 degrees overnight (that's still hot in my book)

All spring Ive had these annoying little birdies of various breeds living in my trees, roof etc but today I went out this morning and left a huge plate of water for them. Not a fan of birds at all but I did stop to enjoy watching the little chicks splashing around in the water. Did my one good deed for today (heck honestly this week).

For anyone who has ever pondered this question? I can assure you that glitter in your underwear is not very comfortable. For reasons known only to a 4 year old, my son sprinkled glitter in my underwear whilst I was showering earlier today. I got dressed in such a rush I didn't notice. Yep feels like Ive been to the beach and got sand in my nether regions. Hubby has now been calling me Sparkle Butt all day....

 

LOL - even if I did wouldn't post them here..

funny kids!

Come on... don´t be shy
you could start...maybe others have funny butt pics too, you never know   

Never ever gonna happen!!

You know we're all going to call you sparkle butt from now on, don't you?

Merci Katie, I just thought the same          

By the way, I am baby butt.

HA HA - I think I shared too much today - oh well Sparkle Butt is an accurate description.
