Lady loves…

* Asking a five year old how old she thinks I am and having her reply ‘Well… you’d have to be AT LEAST fourteen.’ Word to the wise… I’m getting pretty close to twice that. Golden.

* Easter egg foil. I always have.

* Spending the weekend with the extended Smaggle clan and getting all silly with my cousins.

* Being given three gorgeous dresses by a similarly sized friend. Bonza!

* Soup. I’m a fundamentally lazy person and not chewing is rather pleasurable.

* Words with Friends. It’s an iPhone application that Roomy Smaggle made me get that’s based on a popular board game where the players are given 7 letter tiles and have to arrange them to form words on a board. It’s heavily copyrighted hence why it’s called Words with Friends. We are hoping the afore hinted at game developers won’t shut it down like Scrabulous on Facebook. I’m really not sure I could cope.

* Having bought a magazine three days ago and not having had the time to read it. It’s 7.55pm and as soon as I post this I’m heading to bed.

* My super gorgeous talented Roomy Smaggle’s new website. Look at it. Covet the prettiness. I own a Wheelie Bin Necklace, Propeller Earrings, a Jelly Baby Necklace and Mr Smaggle has a Telegraph Pole brooch. She’s so urban and gritty. Grrrr!

* My delicious Mr Smaggle’s Yoink being in The New York Times online today. I’m being crushed by all the talent surrounding me.

* Hearing that people ‘save’ my site for their lunch break or as their treat for cleaning the house. I got some gorgeous emails this week and I’m so blushy. It’s like I’m Postsecret!*

Lady loathes…

* Coming home after being away for five days and finding that my ginger has gone all furry. I’m very into my vegetable juice and it was with tightly pursed lips that I drank it sans ginger in the wee small hours of this morning. I feel like the health benefits were halfed.

* DVDs. They scratch and skip ALL THE TIME. I want my bloody VHS back!

* This general feeling of average that’s going around. It’s not just me, it’s like there’s something in the water that’s making life just a teeny bit irritating right now. Is anyone else feeling that? Nothing major just a little sigh inducing you know?

Love Lady Smaggle

* With way less purpose and way less readers.

    Yay for Mr Smaggle! Thats freakin awesome!
    And I know what you mean about the general feeling of average…it’s in the water in Canberra too! Maybe I need to replace my water for vodka…

  2. There is a definite feeling of glum in the air – and in both hemispheres it seems. I wish it would be gone.

    Tell Mr Smaggle we really love Yoink, if only we could get rid of our fugly green fold out couch…

    Not that you’ve asked for them; but here are MY loves and loathes (becuase I’m a pushy bitch and everything is about me).

    LOVES!
    *There’s only one week till we’re going to LMFF Runway 6 together. Squeeeee!!!
    *Winter-winter-winter-winter
    *My hairdresser – she swears at me and tells me if my ideas are stupid or not

    LOATHES!
    *Feeling deflated and yucky from a Blog-induced lack of sleep
    *Oztion.com.au – talk about single-handedly supporting the pirated luxury market :s
    *People lampooning poor Bloggers over their personal choices. It makes me really cranky, and a little violent.

    Are you one of those folk who carefully peels back the easter egg foil, so as not to tear it… and then smooths it all down nice and flat? If yes.. high five! Me too.

    Heh heh – my nephew told my sister that he thought she was about 70 years old. (she’s 39…) Gotta love kids – they have no concept of time or age. Hold on to that 14 year old persona as long as you can!

    wow your friend’s work is gorgeous!

    Wooowweee I love Roomy Smaggles jewelry – it’s utterly amazing, I want one of those jelly babies – and the clavicle pieces are so ingenious.

    As for DVDs – I stick to watching movies in other aquired formats. No skipping that way. 😀

    Loves:
    – lemonade
    – tea
    – orange juice

    Loathes:
    – this darned cold! I can’t go to anything or smooch my boy because I will cover everything in snot and phlegm. GROSS.
    – JOB INTERVIEWS. Can’t I just get a job being cranky and drinking a lot? WHY WON’T ANYONE PAY ME FOR THAT?

    If you’re not already keeping your ginger already peeled in the freezer, that helps keep the freshness longer. I have these silly tips from wasting hours of my life watching Food Network.

    Hey, I expanded Yoink to Adelaide this week! Got my FIL yoinking. 🙂
