Wednesday Weirdness
1. What is one thing one of your closest friends does that drives you batshit crazy?
My very close friend is supercalifragifuckingcrazy jealous of her boyfriend.No matter how much he reassures her of his complete love and total fidelity,she refuses to let him out of her sight,and there was a time where he could literally go nowhere without her in tow.It drives me batshit crazy,because I know this is all in her mind,and he would never do anything to hurt her.I've talked to her about it a million times,but she always reverts back to her old crazy ways.
2. When buying a new sex toy, what are the features you look for that you absolutely have to have?
I've never bought one for myself,but I would have to say it should be able to arouse me,but not too quickly.I don't want sex with myself to go by quickly,though it usually does {that's the downside to knowing your body too well}.Just shows,no sex is ever perfect.Or else I'm just a fussy bitch.
3. If you woke up the opposite gender for one day, what would be the biggest downside to that for you?
Having to shave my face.It's horrible shaving all the places {or at least waxing most of the places} we do as women,but I would never want to have to shave my face.It looks really tedious and my skin would probably break out in the worst rashes know to man.
4. Do you use curse words in front of children?
Yes,unfortunately.My niece keeps telling me not to,but it's second nature.I have to mention that,and I might be totally wrong on this,I see curse words as using God's name in vain.You know,using God's name as a curse word,or Jesus.That I never use,and dispise hearing other people use it.Other words like fuck and shit,to me,are man-made words,and was never used in the olden times,so I don't actually see them as all that bad.If I was really upset and used the word 'fudge' instead of 'fuck',it would have the same meaning anyway,whether it's a nicer word or not.
5. If you were zapped with a laser and turned into an animated character, what Disney movie would you hate to play a part in?
Ratatouille,because I fucking hate rats.Stupid Disney,trying to make rats look all cute.
6. How would you react to your partner answering a phone call or text message during foreplay or intercourse?
Well,this has happened,and I wasn't mad,but it was a phone call,so it could've been an emergency.If he had answered a text message,I would've gone Lorena Bobbitt on his ass.
7. What are three things you want to try doing but haven't yet? (They can be sexual or non-sexual, doesn't matter.)
1. Have sex every day for a month.
2. Jog for at least 2km,without falling over,dead.
3. To not be so critical of my boyfriend or myself.

Wednesday Weirdness
1.) You're on a trip taking a tour through the jungle. You have a backpack with some food, some first aid supplies, a pocket knife, a flashlight and a couple bottles of water. Some how, you get separated from your group. By night fall you haven't found your group and haven't heard them looking for you. How long do you think you would be able to survive on your own?
Maximum a week,because I would probably freak the hell out by day 7 and jump off a cliff somewhere.I don't do well on my own.
2.) Do you think it's okay to lie to spare someone's feelings? Why?
Yes,in some cases.I don't see any need to hurt someone's feelings for no reason.The world is tough enough as it is.
3.) If a talking (insert your name here) doll were made, what are THREE phrases it would say?
"Fuck!"
"I told you not to do that"
"I don't want to!"
4.) If the super power to be able to read minds at your own will were possible, do you think it would be... cool and helpful, intrusive and wrong, manipulative or maddening? Explain why you would or wouldn't want to be able to read anyone's mind at your own will.
I would find it cool and helpful.It's not like in 'Bruce Almighty' where Bruce randomly hears all the prayers and it drives him crazy.No,here you have the power to read it at your own will,so you have the choice to listen or not.I'm mad already and also tend to be a bit intrusive too,so reading minds wouldn't be such a stretch anyway.
5.) Drunk confessions, are they the things people can't bring themselves to say sober or just crazy ramblings of an influenced and intoxicated mind?
I have always believed that the things that people say when their drunk,is the truth they don't usually have the guts to say.I know that is true about me.Alcohol takes away rational thinking,so that's why we tend to be the exact opposite of our usual selves when we're drunk.I like it.
6.) What brings out the worst in you?
When someone doesn't want to listen to my point of view.It makes me so damn mad,I feel like my head will explode!
7.) Do you think long distance relationships work? Have you ever been in one before?
I have never been in one.I would personally never be able to have a long distance relationship,because I crave daily human contact with my love,and I am also a jealous bitch (the first step is admitting you have a problem ~ don't judge me) so I would go crazy thinking up all kinds of weird cheating scenarios.It wouldn't work for me,at all.

Questions about My Love
Everyone and their uncle has done these questions,but now it's my turn.I stole them from Blogged Bliss.
How long have you been together?
We’ve been together for 3 years and 3 months.
How long did you know each other before you started dating?
About 7 years.He used to date my best friend when she and I were still in high school.
Who asked whom out?
We both sort of drunkflirted with each other.I made it very easy for him.One night at the club where he was a barman at the time,I spotted him on the dancefloor,grabbed him and said “Why don’t you come over to my place when you’re done with work?”.I had said this to him many times before,he never took me up on the ‘offer’.That night he did,and the rest is history.
How old are each of you?
I’m 25 (turning 26 on Sunday) and he is 30.
Whose siblings do you see the most?
Mine,but only my one sister,because she lives in the same town as us.Otherwise we see his sisters more often.
Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple?
Our debt.At least,my boyfriends’ debt.We basically can’t really start our lives until that is all paid off,because I don’t want to keep on making more debt,so I refuse to get married until we are in the clear.
Did you go to the same school?
Nope.
Are you from the same home town?
He moved to my home town when he was 13.I’ve lived here my whole life.
Who is smarter?
I think that we are pretty equal,but if I have to be honest,I think he is.Especially when it comes to math and science.I’m better with useless facts.
Who is the most sensitive?
I am definitely.He is about as sensitive as a dull needle.
Where do you eat out most as a couple?
We don’t eat out.My boyfriend is not a big eater (he only eats about one meal a day) and prefers home made food.But if we do,we go to this local restaurant just around the corner from us,for pizza.
Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
LOL,not very far,only about 2 hours from home.What can I say?We’re house bunnies.
Who has the craziest exes?
I don’t really know many of his exes,but I would have to guess his,because he was my first real boyfriend,and he has dated quite a plethora of interesting characters.
Who has the worst temper?
I think my boyfriend does,because he tends to be passive aggressive,and holds everything in,then explodes when he is really mad.I let my anger and stuff out whenever I feel it,so I don’t get too worked up.
Who does the cooking?
I do mostly.My boyfriend can only do chicken and chips or burgers.So I mostly make the food,otherwise I would only get to eat chicken and chips or burgers,ever.
Who is the neat-freak?
Neither one of us is a neat freak,although I don’t like things to be dirty.If you make a mess,you clean it up immediately.My boyfriend doesn’t get this.
Who is more stubborn?
Definitely JC!If he says no,he means no,and there is absolutely NO way to change his mind,at all.
Who hogs the bed?
I do.I like to lie spread eagled on my stomach.I also like to roll myself up in the duvet.Luckily JC is very thin,so he doesn’t need a lot of space anyway.
Who wakes up earlier?
I usually do.Unfortunately.
Where was your first date?
In my bedroom.”wink,wink”
Who is more jealous?
I am.But I wouldn’t get all psycho about it,so long as JC doesn’t compare me to any of his exes,I hate that.
How long did it take to get serious?
After about a year of being ‘friends with benefits’,we became increasingly serious about each other,although we were monogamous the whole time anyway.
Who eats more?
I do,by far.Like I said,he only eats about one meal a day (mostly dinner) and he hardly ever eats seconds.He also doesn’t eat anything sweet.He truly only eats if he is really hungry.Whereas I will eat anything and everything in my path,given the chance.
Who does the laundry?
We both do.He sorts the clothes and puts it in the machine and then I hang it up and take it down and pack it away again.
Who's better with the computer?
Me,although I’m not that good,at all.He however,can’t even type.
Who drives when you are together?
Well,I can’t drive,so JC drives ALL the time.

1. If you were to be reincarnated as an inanimate object, what would you choose to come back as?
A mirror,because people put you in their most intimate of rooms (bedroom/bathroom) so just imagine the hours of awesome stuff you'll get to see.Also,people are scared shitless at the idea of breaking you (that whole 7 years bad luck thing) so they take extra care of you.
2. If you were told that you would be equipped with the perfect comeback to any remark, but it would cost you five years of your life would you take it?
No,I don't mind having mediocre comebacks,and I'm sure not gona sacrifice 5 years of my life for a comeback of which the glory will only last about 2 minutes or so.
3. What would be the most shocking thing your mom could have ever told you?
That she never loved any of us and had numerous affairs.That would kind of suck.
4. If you could spend 24 hours as the opposite gender, what would you do?
I would masturbate for a few hours.Drink loads of beer so that I could pee standing up,as often as I could.Walk past a hot girl and make inappropriate remarks.Scratch my groin constantly.Clean my teeth with a pocketknife.Eat pizza out of the box and let out a really loud belch afterwards.Basically everything normal guys do everyday,that girls can't really do,because it isn't ladylike.Ugh.
5. Describe the ugliest outfit you have ever worn in public.
I generally play it safe,so there really aren't any major disasters,but I would have to say my school uniform.I looked like a dowdy old nurse in that thing.So it was really awesome having to wear it for 12 years of my life.
6. Do you like to celebrate Valentine's Day or do you wish you could magically pouf it from the calendar? If you did, what holiday would you invent to put in its place?
I really don't like Valentine's Day,because it is such a super sappy celebration of something that should be celebrated that same way,for a much bigger part of the year than just one day.In its place I would put Procrastination Day,which is basically a continuation of most of my year anyway,except for on this day,you are actually meant to do nothing,and not even try to make yourself do something worthwhile.

Wednesday Weirdness
1.) Tell us something that to you is weird about your significant other. (If single, pick an ex) It can be a personality quirk, a hobby, a habit, a ritual etc but just make sure it's something you find odd about them.
There are plenty,for one thing,he obsessively cleans his ears (morning,noon and night),he eats everything with a knife and fork,he refuses to eat breakfast or lunch,as soon as he is awake in the morning he gets out of bed (not even a little bit of cuddling before having to get up,no sirree).Like I said,there are plenty.
2.) What are 3 songs that you find sexy?
'Fire' by Bruce Springsteen
'In my secret life' by Leonard Cohen
'Wild Horses' by The Sundays (because of that rollercoaster scene in the movie 'Fear' with Mark Wahlberg and Reese Witherspoon)
3.) After your partner goes down on you, do they have to brush their teeth/rinse with mouthwash before meeting your mouth again or do things just roll on?
My partner doesn't go down on me (my choice) but after I do that,I just kiss him full on the mouth.If he wants the pleasure,he just has to put up with it.
4.) Is it ever okay to go ass to mouth without cleaning in between? (Anal sex to oral sex. Licking the anus to kissing. Etc )
Well,for me,that just seems a little too dirty,so I would have to say clean that shit up inbetween.No pun intended.
5.) If you were going to give yourself a "Most Likely To..." award for this week, what would your title be?
"Freak out and yell at everybody for no particular reason"
6.) Do you read any self-help books? If so, which is your favorite? If not, why not?
No,I don't,I just read the awesome blogs I follow,because reading about the everyday good things (and sometimes bad things) other people do,helps me more than any self-help book.
7.) Do you prefer to buy porn, sex toys, lube and things of that nature in a store or discreetly online? Why?
I don't mind buying them in a store,because visiting a sex shop is major fun,especially when you do it with your partner.However,I do tend do be laughing most of the time.That is,until sexy times start back at home...
8.) List these things in order from what you find most sexy to least sexy: Money, Loyatly, Sense of humor, Intelligence, Kindness, Romantic, Open-mindedness, Kinky, Honesty.
Kindness
Honesty
Loyalty
Sense of humor
Intelligence
Romantic
Open-mindedness
Money
Kinky

Monday Morning Madness,sort of
It has been a very hectic Monday morning at work,that I only realised now that I did my 100th post on Friday,and in just little more than a month!I rock!In my own mind,at least.
I'm one of the select few (it seems) that don't own a home computer,because in all honesty,I don't really like computers all that much,and mostly just use it for work.So I only post during the week,and therefor tend to be very behind on all the other incredible bloggers,who keep up to date posts going,even on weekends.
I got tagged on Sunday,by the adorable Snickerdoodle Champagne,and only now have gotten the chance to do it.So here goes.
Step 1: respond and rework—answer the questions on your own blog, replace one question that you dislike with a question of your own invention, add one more question of your own.
Step 2: tag other people.
1) What are the 3 things you would save out of your burning house?
My family photos,my cat and my purse (since my purse contains most of my important stuff anyway)
2) What was the last thing you read/are currently reading?
Dark Hollow by John Connolly
3) Do you nap a lot?
Once in a blue moon,like yesterday afternoon,and only because my headache forced me into bed
4) Who was the last person you hugged?
My boyfriend
5) What is your current obsession/addiction?
My little nephew
6) What is the last thing you said out loud? To my boss "These people are such assholes."And he agreed
7) What websites do you always visit when you go online?
Facebook,X17 Online,Evilbeet,Sasha is a Monster and Check my Secret
8) What was the last item you bought? A new watch battery
9) What is your most challenging goal?
To not strangle my boyfriend during PMS
10) If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished, anywhere in the world, where would it be?
That's easy,in Hermanus
11) Favorite Vacation spot?
South Africa's West Coast,like Yzerfontein or Elands' Bay
12) Say something to the person who tagged you:
Even though we don't know each other personally,you're an awesome blogger,and I look forward to reading everything you have to say
13) Name one thing you just can't resist no matter how bad it is for you: Highlighting my hair,even though I know it messes up my hair
14) What is your favorite item of clothing?
A jersey my mother knit for me
15) Favorite pair of shoes you keep going back to over and over, even though your closet is over flowing with a zillion others?!
I actually don't own that many pairs of shoes,because I have terrible feet to get shoes for,but I have this plain pair of little black boots,that were very inexpensive,look good with every long pant,and are extremely comfortable.
16) Name one thing you can not live with out:
My boyfriend (cliché,but very true)
17) What do you envy?
Heiresses,I would love to be able to just spend all day just worrying about my next outfit.Carefree
18) If you could only have one 3 course meal for eternity,what would it be?
For starters - prawn cocktail,main course - lasagne,dessert - malva pudding with vanilla ice cream.
So,that was quite painless,and since this is a game of tagging,here are the people I'm tagging:
* Creative Kerfuffle
*Chele
*Drollgirl
*Mmmadrid
*Belette

1.) If a natural disaster left thousands of people homeless, would you let a family of strangers stay in your house?
If they had a little baby,yes.With teenagers,I don't think so.There are already enough raging hormones (mine) in our house.
2.) How often do you watch porn?
About once every 2 months.Depends on my mood.
3.) How many people have naked or semi-naked pictures of you?
One.My boyfriend.
4.) When having sex with someone, have you ever fantasized about someone else? If yes, explain why you were thinking of someone else during sex.
No,because when I'm with my boyfriend,I don't think of anyone else,and I've been with him so long,I don't really remember what I was thinking during sex with the guys that came before him (pun intended).
5.) Is there ever an appropriate time to lie to someone and push yourself off as single when truthfully you're not?
Yes,if you're trying to get out of a speeding ticket,and a little flirting might do the trick.
6.) Who is one person who has changed your life and how did they change things for you?
My boyfriend,because he has shown me that I am worthy of unconditional love,and that I am beautiful to him,no matter what I think of myself.He has changed my entire outlook,because before him,I didn't believe in happily ever after,and now we are living together,and I definitely think we will be together forever.
7.) How comfortable are you in bed with your current significant other? Do they know all your kinks or do you tend to hold back? Why?
I am beyond comfortable.He knows I grind my teeth,he laughs at me when I snore,he doesn't mind it if I dribble a little spit on him during the night,etc.We are so compatible,because we don't hide any of our physical oddities from each other.

Yay,yay,another interview!
I'm slowly,but surely finding more blogs that I love,and a lovely lady from a blog I discovered only yesterday,has honored me with an interview.So,withour further ado,let's do this!
1 - What is your most embarrassing moment?
At my final dance as a senior in high school,they had set up a little boat with sea sand all around it,to make it look like we were at the beach.This was where the pictures were to be taken.I had gotten my first contacts especially for the dance,because I didn't want to go with my glasses.And I'm not used to high heels,so disaster was inevitable.As I was climbing into the little boat with my partner and parents,my right shoes' heel snagged on the side of the boat,and I fell face first into the sand.With the whole senior class and their partners watching.So yeah,that was pretty mortifying.
2 - What is your favourite type of music?
Anything that I can dance too or sing along with.So most rock or pop.
3 - Describe your ideal man?
He has to be really honest,must have a very good sense of humor,a steady and reliable job and he must be very touchy feely.I hate it when guys don't like to show affection,even when you're alone with them.Looks-wise,it wouldn't hurt for him to have a nice pair of hands and super smooth,tan skin.That always gets me.
4 - What is your favourite car?
Ford Mustang Shelby GT500.Eleanor baby!
5 - If you got stuck on a deserted island who would you want with you?
My boyfriend,for sure.Because although my best friend is a great conversationist,I don't see myself starting to bat for my own team anytime soon.And one never knows how long you'll be stuck on that island.
Thanks for the cool questions Leanne!

50 Things men should know about women...but don't
I was playing around on the Internet out of boredom,and came across this little gem.50 Things men are supposedly supposed to know about women.Well,some of these are very true,but honestly,some are just plain crap.
So let's you and I go through this very enlightening list.My comments follow each point.
1. Saying “I love you” immediately before, during, or following sex doesn’t count.
(Hearing "I love you" ALWAYS counts,so once you say it,you better be ready to back it up.It doesn't matter if you only said it in the final moment of ecstacy,point is,you said it)
2. Real men drive stick shift.
(Is this some kind of phallic thing,where a guy being good with a stick shift means he is good with his hands everywhere?Because only then would it matter to me if a guy drove stick or not)
3. I will leave if you lie.
(This is a lie.Lots of women don't leave.Even if they find you in bed with another woman.However,your girl might just be that one-in-a-million one that grabs a gun and shoots your balls off if she catches you out.Do you really want to take that chance?)
4. You are cute in raglan-sleeved T-shirts (two-toned baseball undershirts).
(I actually don't get this one.Can someone please explain it to me?)
5. I’m convinced I’m pregnant and obsess about it for a minimum of 24 to 48 hours before my period, even when I have no rational reason to think so.
(This happens to me a lot,especially if I overeat and get really nautious because of that.That always makes me think I'm pregnant for some reason,until I realise,nope,it's just those 2nd and 3rd helpings making me sick)
6. I love it when you hug me from behind and whisper in my ear.
(Only a stone-cold bitch wouldn't like this)
7. “Fine” is never an appropriate response when I ask you how I look.
(Well,I guess "Fine" is more appropriate than "Well honey,now that you're asking,I've always felt your ass looks especially huge in light blue")
8. Most of the time when I fantasize, it’s about you.
(A lot of women fantasize purely about their man,but I'd guess 90% of women are basically having sex with Brad Pitt or Sawyer from Lost every time you're in bed with them.So,no,most of the time you might as well be a well-formed sex toy for all your woman cares,because in her head she's lying on the beach with Sawyer,making jungle love)
9. I’m terrified of becoming my mother, even though I admire her.
(This one is true,for most women.Remember however,we can say how annoying and interfering our moms are,but you dare mention it,and you might as well shoot yourself in the nutsack.And oh yeah,all women eventually become like their mom anyway)
10. I get turned on simply seeing that I have an e-mail from you.
Well,unless that e-mail is vibrating and in the form of a penis,just seeing I have an e-mail from my man will have to be something pretty damn special to make me horny.Don't know about you,but I really don't think I'm that easy)
11. I expect you to call me.
(Very true.We like updates,regular updates.Even on things you think are unimportant.Call us anyway,just in case.An unexpected sweet phone call to your lady could get you some extra nookie,because a man willing to call you for no particular reason,is like an aphrodisiac to some women)
12. Only rock stars are allowed to wear leather pants.
(80's rock stars,mind you,today's rock stars are all environmentally friendly and shit - they don't do leather anyway)
13. I’m scared of losing my independence.
(Well,I've got no problem giving up my independence if it means I get to boss around my own personal man-slave,or boyfriend,whatever you want to call it)
14. I’m more forgiving of you than I really should be.
(Now this one is super true,I am amazed almost daily,of how much a woman is prepared to forgive her man for,only to bitch and moan for days about what an ass he is)
15. Oral sex is your get-out-of-the-doghouse-free card. Manolo Blahnik shoes also do the trick.
(I personally don't like receiving oral sex,but that is an issue for another time.And I hate wearing high heel shoes,so this doesn't really work for me)
16. You did something bad. I seem cool with it. I’m not. (See directly above.)
(Well,obviously I'm not cool with it.Just wait until the prescription drugs wear off,then I'll give you a piece of my mind...)
17. If I’m not having sex with you, I’m… a.) …having a fat day. b.) …not feeling “connected” to you. c.) …blackmailing you to get something I want.
(Women can have all kinds of fucked up reasons for not having sex with their man.If we were going to make a multiple choice answer list for this question,the alphabet would have to be wayyy longer than 26 letters)
18. Shoes determine whether you’re fashionable or not.
(Since I have absolutely no fashion sense,I would think it would be a little hypocritical of me to judge people's shoes)
19. I own a Debbie Gibson CD, and I’m not afraid to use it.
(Ok,either I'm way too old for this Debbie Gibson person,or she's the old one and she was wayyy before my time,because I for serious don't know who she is)
20. When I compare my flabby tummy to a kangaroo pouch, say nothing.
(Never just say nothing,because like they say,silence can be an answer too.And if you say nothing,we just assume you're agreeing with us,or thinking something worse.Just rub that flabby tummy - or even better,kiss it - and tell your girl that you wouldn't have it any other way)
21. A man I love plans the occasional fancy-schmancy dress-up date and impromptu weekend getaways, and he buys my favorite candy in advance when we’re just going to the movies.
(Every girl loves to feel special now and then,and obviously,candy does make most bad things in life a whole lot better.So this one is a good one)
22. You look hot in hooded clothing items.
(Unless your man is a skateboarder or some sort of X Games participant,or stuck out in the rain with an umbrella,I don't really see why he would be wearing a hooded clothing item anyway.Unless he was part of the KKK,which is not hot either)
23. You should never tell me what to do.
(Fellas,this is a keeper.This is the master point to remember.Even if we ask for your advice,do not,for your own safety,tell us what to do.We basically only want you to confirm that our idea is the right thing to do.Remember this)
24. If I slept over, you owe me breakfast.
(It's the least you can do if I 'ate' your 'eggs and sausage' the previous night)
25. My breasts love much licking and sucking.
(They sure do,but ask the girl first,for goodness sake.Don't just begin sucking like the secret of life is buried in her breastesess and the only way you can get to it is by sucking it out.Ask her how she likes it first,because some like it gentle and some like it rough,and if you do it wrong,you might end up with a restraining order,instead of in her pants)
26. If you ask me out directly, I will say yes.
(If you're hot,for sure,if not,you'll have to prove your income and total financial status first.Just joking,but yeah,being direct doesn't always get you the girl,because more often than not,you come off looking like a full-of-yourself douchebag)
27. I’m very impressed when you ask for my advice.
(Probably,but us girls are usually more impressed when you actually do what we tell you to do,like put down the toilet seat,or throw your clothes in the laundry,you know,difficult to remember stuff like that)
28. I’m unimpressed with a man who doesn’t take the lead.
(I do like a man who looks like he could take charge,especially in bed)
29. When in doubt, go with the shirt that matches your eye color.
(Unless you have eyes the color of poo.That really isn't a good color on anyone)
30. I want to be Madonna.
(Listen,where everyone got this idea that all women want to be Madonna,is beyond me,because quite frankly,I do not want to look like the living dead at 50.Sophia Loren,now there's an old lady to aspire to look and be like.She's still hot and sexy at 70!Suck it Madonna!)
31. Women get urinary-tract infections easily, so watch (and wash) your fingers.
(I might sound like a dirty little bitch after this,but I will take a little old urinary-tract infection if my man is really,really good with his hands - it's just a price I am willing to pay,ok?Don't judge me)
32. I’m in heaven when you hold my hand.
(This is very true for me.And since I'm so sentimental,nothing makes my heart melt faster than an old couple who still holds hands,even if it is just to keep each other upright - it's still sweet)
33. You’re sexy when you’re shaving, fixing things, wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, driving, eating a peach, holding a baby.
(Anything that shows us ladies you're not just super masculine,but also super sensitive,is a winner.I will full-heartedly concur with this point)
34. I need to hear how you feel about me. Often. Tell me now.
(Constant reassurance,that's where it's at.If you feel you've said "I love you" too much this last week,say it twice as much next week,because you probably haven't said it enough,and your lady is already wondering whether you truly love her :-)
35. Surprises, especially gifts for moi = more loving.
(True,true,and you might want to give extra attention to grandma's,nieces and pets.Those will all win you brownie points with the missus)
36. I want to be the best thing that ever happened to you–and for you to recognize this.
(Reference point no.34.Say it often,and say it like you mean it.Doing this can and will get you much extra loving)
37. If I’m not feeling loved, I will start looking….
(Men think women don't cheat,but eventually even the most loving missus can start looking around,but we go about cheating differently.Women basically cheat to get a new relationship,whereas men usually cheat to get some more/new kind of sex)
38. Discussion of ex-gf’s and ex-bf’s should be avoided at all times.
(Oh yeah,so true!Nothing pisses me off more than hearing about how so-and-so used to do this and that.Usually I don't even know the bitch and I still want to punch her titties off)
39. I like it when you tell me what you’re thinking, even if you don’t know yourself.
(Women are all basically born with the need to nurture and help.Men are like our little projects.And nothing makes a woman feel more loved than when a man trusts her with his thoughts.Unless those thoughts are of threesomes with Irish midget twins.Then sharing your thoughts isn't a very good idea)
40. Celebrating our anniversary, even if it’s only been a few months, earns major bonus points.
(This is an obvious one.You want to have a sustainable sex life for the next couple of years?Just jot down the date on your calendar or set a cellphone reminder,even a simple man can't forget an anniversary then)
41. I love it when you’re sweaty.
Unless your sweat smells like Hugo Boss cologne,go take a freaking shower before you want some nookie!)
42. It’s best to consult your gal pals for gift ideas.
(No,no,no.You should probably try to get to know your girlfriend.You know that way you will be able to get her a present,all by yourself.Just like a big boy)
43. A lady should always be greeted with kisses.
(Unless you had garlic for lunch,then lots of hugs will do,thanks)
44. I like porn.
(This is what most men hope,but no,some women seriously just don't like porn.Like a friend of mine - she hates porn,any porn,with a passion.I however,like myself a bit of porn now and then.So guys,don't just assume your girl likes porn.Test out the waters first.Just never ask your girl to do the moves they do in the porno's.You might walk out with your centre leg missing,because remember,your girl doesn't get paid for the crazy shit you probably want her to do,so if she doesn't want to do it,let it go.Or get out your credit card and pay up)
45. I love holding your bum in the palms of my hands.
(Ooh yeah!I love doing that.But guys,while she's doing this,try to keep your natural body gasses in check.Bodily gasses are never called for during sexy times)
46. Even nice girls like hushed dirty talk in public.
(Unless you're married to the 'Bree van de Kamp' type,then you're just shit out of luck)
47. It’s cheating as soon as you’re doing something with her that you wouldn’t want me to see, hear, read…
(This is very,very,extremely true.Because why else wouldn't you want your girl to see it?Guys often think cheating is only sex.But trust me,to your lady,cheating can be a whole lot of things,that don't even involve sex)
48. For the record: I’d rather you break up with me than cheat.
(Hells to the NO!I would rather break up with YOU first)
49. I remember everything about our relationship.
(Unless you're an incredible lover,I'll probably only remember the shitty stuff you did,to be used in later arguments)
50. You should know all this and more without my telling you.
(This is probably the one point that is completely true.Get to know your ladies,guys!And before you say that we're too complicated,you guys aren't exactly a 6-piece puzzle either!)
There you go.50 points done and dusted.
What do you all think about these points?I would love to hear your thoughts.

Wednesday Weirdness
I've only just gotten on the bandwagon of Wednesday Weirdness,after seeing it being done by many of the bloggers that I religiously read every day.
Here are my answers:
1.) Do you drive with your hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel?
You're going to laugh,but I don't drive at all.I'm only in the beginning stages of learning,and it's not going well.I am not only a nervous passenger,but an extremely nervous driver (if a driver is what I can be called).
2.) How long do you keep cards given to you on birthdays and holidays before throwing them away? If you don't throw them out, what do you do with them?
I don't throw them away,I just keep them in a box.I'm extremely unpopular,so it isn't a very big box (and also,most of my family live close by,so they don't even bother with cards - cheapskates).
3.) If, when you die, you could will any one of your characteristics to your children (child/future children), what would it be and why?
My willingness to try and get along with all types of people.I think that is a very important characteristic to have.
4.) What is the best personality trait you got from your mother and the best personality trait that you got from your father?
From my mother - being stubborn and willing to speak my mind.
From my father - compassion and ability to get along with all types of people (as seen above).
5.) What is something that you wish you had a better understanding of?
Investment and stock markets.I really wish I understood what the hell they are talking about,because I bet that would be helpful to know about in the long run.
6.) What makes you nervous?
Except for the occasional pregnancy scare,I usually get nervous when I think I might have hurt someone's feelings.
7.) What is the strangest household object that you have ever or would ever use for help in masturbation?
One of those rubber finger covers you use in needlework to protect your finger?Well,it adds a nice bit of texture to the DIY experience.
8.) What do you have sitting on the countertop in your bathroom?
A book
Perfume
Body Lotion
Painkillers
Extra toiletpaper
Blush
That was fun!I'll definitely be making this a regular Wednesday post.

I'm not so lonely anymore.Thanks!
It's Friday,so basically nothing can spoil my mood today,and I have to say,I'm having an exeptionally good morning.Why?Because I've got 4 followers for my blog!Thanks to drollgirl, Ruggy13, Ms D and Bon Don for making me feel all warm and fuzzy today and for welcoming me into their blogging lives.
Also,I got another interview!Looks like I'm on a roll.The lovely Belle sent me these very fun questions,and I'm going to answer them here,to the very best of my abilities.Let's do this!
1) If you were an exotic dancer, what would your signature song be?
I would have to say Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard,because I'm a fan of old school rock and that song basically always makes me want to take my clothes off anyway (also the title sounds kinda sexual,and would fit well with my stripper name - White Sugar)
2) If someone gave you $10,000 to take a vacation, where would you go?
I would go to Tuscany,because it's beautiful,and well,I watched "Under the Tuscan Sun" again last night.I'm enchanted by that place.
3) What was your biggest accomplishment in 2008? Your biggest disappointment?
I've lived with my parents all my life,and in 2008,I moved out on my own for the first time,for 4 months (until my apartment got flooded).I moved back to my Mom's place,but the end of November my boyfriend and I finally moved in together.That's my biggest accomplishment.My biggest disappointment would be the fact that my dad wasn't here in 2008.He died in December 2007.
4) If you could relive one day in your life, which day would it be?
The last day I saw my father.I would definitely have hugged him more and told him how much he means to me.
5) What's one thing people would be surprised to find out about you?
I have a little gambling problem.Not too big.I just can't resist the lure of a slotmachine.Those things were definitely designed by the devil himself.
There you have it.Thanks Belle,your questions were great,because some of them made me want to laugh,and cry too.Or maybe that's just my PMS talking.With me,you can never tell.
PS. again,if any of you would like to be interviewed,just drop me a comment,and I will happily oblige.

I'm no longer a virgin!
Well,that's quite obvious,but I meant an Interview Virgin.
Because after grovelling at the feet of the lovely Kim at Perfectly Cursed Life, she was gracious enough to give me a few questions.So here goes:
1.What is your favorite line from a song or book and why?Does it relate to a specific occurrence in your life?
These few lines are from "The Show Must Go On" by Queen,and everytime I hear this song,it makes me feel sad,yet strong at the same time.
"Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on.
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?"
2.You have to choose any person, living or dead, to write your biography. Who and why?
Sasha Pasulka (Evilbeet),well,simply because she is damn funny,but always keeps it real.
3.Someone once said that destiny is a fickle bitch. Has this been true in your life and how?
Honestly,didn't know what the hell this quote was,or who said it,so I Googled it,and it turns out,it's a quote from the show "Lost".
But no,I don't really feel like destiny is a fickle bitch,because destiny in itself,is mutable.Life is all about opportunities and choices.What will be will be,that much is true,but with every choice you make,you alter your own destiny into a different direction.
4.When was a time you realized that you were in over your head?
At the beginning of the year,when I was living alone for the first time in my life.I was broke,lonely and depressed.I realised pretty quickly that I was in WAY over my head and had to make a change.And then my groundfloor apartment got flooded,so yeah,I kind of had no choice,but to make a change.
5.Were you one of the millions who hated adolescence (high school in particular) or did you enjoy it?
I won't say I hated it,it was just uncomfortable.I was never the cool kid,but I wasn't the cast-out uncool kid either.I was always that little grey kid in the middle.Like vanilla ice cream,I was ok,but nothing special.
Bonus: Can you name all five of the Great Lakes from east to west without looking at a map or any other resource?
I'm not even going to try,I would just have to Google this anyway,because I don't live in America.Ah lets be honest,I live in South Africa,and I wouldn't be able to tell you all (or any) of the names of our greatest lakes or rivers.I'm geographically challenged.
Now,I would really love to do some interviews,so if you would maybe like to be interviewed by me,just follow these few simple steps:
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

What would you do?
To help the day pass a little quicker,I thought I would do another little questionnaire.You might notice,I do these very often because I love them,and this is my blog,so no one can stop me.Here goes:

I would first pee my pants,depending on how big the snake was,and probably just stand there until the snake left.

I would yell "I'm the Queen of the World!"

Question #13

Retire,buy an island,and live there until I die of liver failure.Or a heart attack from over-eating and partying too much.
Question #14
If you had 500 pounds of cheese
I would have very high cholestorol.
Question #15
If you were in the library and had gas
Cough and then fart as I was coughing.And just hope to God it doesn't smell too bad.
Question #16
If you were 100 miles from any city and your car ran out of gas
I would have a major panic attack,and then probably wait and see if someone came by.
Question #17
If a blizzard dumped 10 feet of snow where you live?
Stay in and watch movies all day.
That was fun.I think I'll do another one later.Mwahaha!
