I thought it might be nice to have somewhere for people to talk about anything. What it is like living in their country, interesting stuff that you have come across or just plain old day to day stuff.

Does anyone else make excuses up not to get out of bed on a cold dreary morning? On the other hand do we apply the same sort of attitude when we are creating art or do we just get out of bed and let our bodies experience the cold atmosphere simply because there is art calling?

Question: Whats the difference between the two situations?; ▶ Reply to This

It's not that cold here in Wanganui this morning and the full moon is sooooo beautiful!!!; ▶ Reply to This

Good God woman are you mad ........................................no wait thats me! I get like that also and used to have my electronic diary palm pilot next to my bed so that if I awoke with a brilliant resolution to a problem I recorded it.

Telephones are another issue, I think bury them in the sock draw so the ring warns you rather than scares the *&^$ out of you.; ▶ Reply to This

I agree phones are a pain in the bum!!

I must get one of those palm pilots as I have been having freaky dreams and I always forget them.; ▶ Reply to This

I have very vivid dreams, one of my loves in life is my dreams, sometimes I wake up tireder than when I went to bed, I think I must go roaming. The other night I woke about 3.15am I had a scary dream, then wanted to go to the toilet and was scared to go, hehe, big baby yes, I actually don't know what made it such a scary dream, cause looking back on it, it wasn't.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Mark G on July 20, 2008 at 10:51pm: at least the dream didnt scare you into going before you got out of bed..........................................tip for the future, take a whistle to bed and if you do have a wee accident blow the whistle (scaring the hell out of your husband of course) and scream half time change sides.

The next morning just check to see if the men in their white coats havent arrived for pick up.; ▶ Reply to This

Funny I can still see the dream as I type, hmmm not very frightening at all, but obviously means something.; ▶ Reply to This

Oh then I came inside and looked at my disgusting windows, next thing I was cleaning windows at 4.00pm.........and you think your crazy Mark........Oh yeah and I hate cleaning windows and frames........actually I hate cleaning.......where's my maid?
