* I’m totally deaf. I misunderstand most things that people say and whenever I enter the loungeroom and Roomy Smaggle is watching TV she automatically turns up the volume.
* Speaking of Roomy Smaggle, we’re currently obsessed with watching Scrubs every night and we realised, much to our delight that we are inter-racial best friends. Just like Turk and JD. We’ve started calling each other ‘Mocha Bear’ and ‘Vanilla Bear’. She’s Japanese so ‘Brown Bear’ seemed a little inappropriate.
* Being a jeweller hurts. I was filing a tiny gem setting last week and kept hacking off strips of my finger skin so I asked my teacher if I was holding it wrong. I wasn’t. It’s just an assumption that you file off your own skin. It’s interesting trying to re-learn behaviours, like not doing things that hurt.
* It’s really difficult to find a true iced coffee. Not one of those ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate sauce jobs that cost more than dinner, I’m talking about a shot of coffee on iced milk. Even if I request the iced coffee with out the side of cellulite I still get charged for the artery clogging crap. Get on board Canberra cafes.
* The Wii Fit is nicer to you if you do exactly what it says.
* I was convinced for the first time in 5 years to buy a diary other than a Moleskine simply because the display at Borders was so untidy and disorganised. The diary I bought is by Modena, looks almost exactly like a Moleskine, was almost exactly the same price and is made from bonded leather. Plus I was able to choose the correct diary to suit my needs because the display was colour coded and divided into different diary styles and sizes. Virg-asm.
* Boys will not eat vegetables unless girls cut them up for them.
* Women will balk at the thought of spending more than $100 on basic flats or sneakers that are bound to get almost daily use but won’t think twice about spending the same amount on a ridiculous pair of heels that may only see the light of day once or twice. For five minutes before you take them off and carry them home.
