Miss Britt - Thank you for reminding me of this. I was starting to feel quite the freak. And then I remembered freak is also a good thing.

Selma - Clean always… I think my ’style’ would be called ‘can’t be bothered geek’ chic… with less of the chic.

kapgar - It’s always good to hear

yorksdevil - women’s equality through to me whining… I think it was a larger world smaller world thing… Did I mention I was knackered when I wrote this?!

Quantumfog - I may be using the WIll Roger’s quote in today’s post - bloody weather! And is it terribly un-PC of me to admit that I guffawed at the joke?!

Reminds me of an old joke about a meeting on women’s rights.

The first speaker, a lady from England stands and says, “During last year’s conference, we spoke about being more assertive with our husbands. Well, after the conference, I went home and told my husband, Barrington, that I would no longer cook for him and that he would have to do it himself. After the first day, I saw nothing. The second day, I saw nothing, but on the third day, I saw that he had cooked a wonderful roast lamb.”

The crowd cheers.

The second speaker from Russia, stands up and says, “After last year’s conference, I went home and told my husband, Ivan, that I would no longer do his laundry and that he would have to do it himself.The first day, I saw nothing. After the second day, I saw nothing, but on the third day, I saw that he had done not only his own washing, but mine as well.

The crowd again cheers again.

The third speaker, a Jamaican lady, stood up and said,” After lass year’s conference, I wen home and tole dat lazy husband of mines, Dingo Jack, dat I was froo pickin up his beer cans, cookin his tucker and washing his undaweah and dat he was goin to haf to do dem himself.

The crowd goes wild, cheering and clapping for five long minutes.

She continues…

“Afta da first day, I nevah see nuffing.

Afta da second day I nevah see nuffing,

but afta da fird day, I could see a little bit out of my leff eye.”

I noticed you recently had an 80mph storm after an earthquake. It reminds me of a local named Will Rogers who quipped, “if you don’t like the weather, stick around for five minutes. Something you like will come by.”

I must have read it wrong, as the beginning and end appeared to have everything to do with each other.

Wear what makes you happy. I used to get really dressed up for work and do my hair and all that but now I’m following the ‘bag lady’ influence. I like to think of it as my own quiet rebellion against the women’s mags.’ As long as you’re clean’ is what my Mum always says. And at the moment that works for me. I agree with Britt - it’s good to do your own thing!

I don’t know - the beginning and end seemed to link up fine for me.

You are not a bad female.

You are not a stereotype. That’s a good thing.
