A short long MEME I picked up from [livejournal.com profile] munibunny's journal.

Tracky dacks and a Storm polar fleece windcheater.

A Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop. He's green. His name is Dean.

Nope.

Would you go bungee jumping or sky diving?
I don't think so, Tim!

Furthest place you ever traveled?
Prince Edward Island, Canada. But I have actually flown all the way around the World, so that would be the furthest 'distance' I've traveled.

What's your favorite comic strip?
I don't read comic strips.

Do you know all the words to the national anthem?
The Australian National Anthem? Yes! We'll the first verse any way. Apparently there are a couple more verses... Yeah, I should probably learn those one of these days.

Shower, morning or night?
Morning, definitely. I can't leave the house without one.

Best movie you've seen in the past month?
If I say The Simpsons Movie does that make me kinda tragic? It was great in it's silliness. Don't judge me! LOL.

Favorite pizza toppings?
Vegetarian... Tomato, Cheese, Onion & Capsicum. I like plain.

Chips or popcorn?
Chips of the Salt & Vinegar variety.

What cell phone provider do you have?
Telstra

Have you ever smoked peanut shells?
WTF? Why would I want to do that. I don't even eat peanuts. *eye roll*

Have you ever been in a beauty pageant?
Yes, and I won second place. Oh, wait up. That was during a game of Monopoly, I won 10 pounds from Community Chest...

Orange Juice or apple?
Neither :P

Who were the last people you sat at lunch with?
Workmates, yesterday.

Favorite chocolate bar?
I'm a Milky Bar kid. White Chocolate is to die for.

Have you ever won a trophy?
Sure have. I few years back I played in a Touch Football team at work and we won the competition. We got a tiny little trophy each. I was so proud! The next year we got put up two divisions and promptly got our asses kicked every week. lol.

Favorite arcade game?
Does Air Hockey count? I play a mean game of Air Hockey. If not, then PinBall.

Ever ordered from an infomercial?
Not yet. But that Magic Bullet thing is pretty hard to resist, yo.

Sprite or 7-UP?
Neither really. I'm more your Pepsi Max kind of gal.

Have you ever had to wear a uniform to school/work?
Yes.*groan* In High School I had to wear one from Year 7 thru Year 10.

Last thing you bought at Walgreens?
A CSI: Crime Scene Investigation tee-shirt when I was Vegas last year. /end gratuitous place name dropping. *g*

Ever thrown up in public?
When I was in Grade One, I threw up while we were all sitting on the mat listening to a story.

Would you prefer being a millionaire or finding true love?
True Love... awwwww.

Do you believe in love at first sight?
I'd like to think I do but I'm yet to be convinced...

SPONGEBOB OR JIMMY NEUTRON?
SpongeBob. I don't actually understand it but the dude lives in a pineapple, in a place called Bikini Bottom! Sweet!

Did you have long hair as a young kid?
No. I always had short hair. Not my choice, mind you. I had a mum who didn't like long hair and couldn't put hair in a ponytail if her life depended on it. *waves to mum*

What message is on your voicemail machine?
Something about leave a message... I'd have to call myself and then not answer to find out for sure.

Where would you like to go right now?
Somewhere much warmer than here.

What's the name of your pet?
I don't have any pets at the minute. We've always had cat(s) but our last one died about two years ago. Her name was Chocky and she was with us for 16 years and it just didn't feel right getting a new one... yet.

What kind of back pack do you have, and what's in it?
I have The Barney Rustle Blanket Crumpler bag, which I use for work during the week. It has books, cell phone, paper, pens, Calgon body spray, purse, keys, more books, notepads, diary, lip gloss, more pens, and a whole heap of other junk that I probably wouldn't need in a pink fit but you never know.

I also have a Melbourne Storm backpack but that generally only comes out for Storm games or vacations. It's good for all the stuff from my Crumpler bag plus my camera.

What do you think about most?
Lots of things, none of which are even remotely profound or intellectual!

Please to be explaining this outfit.

Also: is a Magic Bullet a vibrator? Just curious.

Dude, No! I don't think they have infomercials for those... Thank god! *face palm* Can you imagine all the 'Happy Customer' testimonials. LMAO!
The Magic Bullet is this food processor / blender thingy you can put a few fresh ingredients in, blend for 3 seconds, put it in the microwave for 7 seconds and 'ta-dah!', you've got a 4 course dinner for four! Not quite, but that's what they'd have you believe.

Tracky dacks and a Storm polar fleece windcheater.

Oops, sorry. Please accept the following translations:
Tracky Dacks = tracksuit pants.
Storm polar fleece windcheater = sweater. (???) I actually wrote polar fleece 'jumper' first, cause that's what we call them usually, but I know jumper the USA means something completed different, like a jumpsuit, right? It's not one of those.

Happy customer testimonials! I didn't even think of that.
I love your mind. It's sick and twisted.

You could have said "jumper," and I would have understood that. Jumpers in the South are dresses that you wear over shirts. Mostly they are ugly.

I should consult urbandictionary.com before I ask any questions.
I'll remember in the future!

I think I might want to have one of those Crumpler bags. Very cool!

Totally forgot that it's wintertime for you! (And here I am complaining about not being able to write winter for the Winchesters)..

*hugs*

[identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com 2007-08-18 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
They are seriously cool bags. They are waterproof, and hold so much. I also have one of their smaller purse type bag, and one of their wallets... There stuff is kind of addictive and, oh, so pretty. *g*

Yeah, you've been saying it's so hot it's hard to write Christmas for the boys, and I've been thinking, "So... Christmas is always hot. What is she talking about?" LOL!

LOL. I saw this movie with Russell Crowe called "The Sum of Us" and he & his dad were getting a Christmas tree whilst wearing shorts and tank tops. That was really the first time the idea of differing seasons was driven home for me. It's pretty tropical here all the time but I suppose I identify with that North American concept of winter a little more because we're part of the US.

I wonder if I'd start a new trend with that bag, huh? What do you think?

*kicks LJ for not sending email notifications*

You could start a new trend! Crumpler actually have a website in the USA. And by the looks of things, they have a few stores dotted around the country too.
