Gadgets for Blondes

My man was away for the evening on business, so Blondie 2 invited me to the south. I know. Luckily I had my passport in my bag. So, off I went to "va souf!"
You know, just a regular girls slumber party complete with pillow fights, lingerie and heels.
Kidding.

She has this new gadget called MVix or something like that! It's an extra hardware type of thingy-majig that hooks up to the TV. You can upload movies, tv series, video's, photo's, mp3's etc...it's brilliant. Right, so it's still in the box and it's Operation Set Up. We had all the cables plugged in and it didn't work. Blondie 2 was looking at the manual (girls use these) and kept shaking her head.
B2: "I don't get it! Everything is plugged in properly!"
BB: "Yes, but is it the plug point at the wall switched on?"
B2: "Of course it is. The lamp is working."
BB: "The extension cord isn't plugged in properly."
B2: "Yes it is."
BB: "No it isn't!"
She pressed the plug in harder and voila! Seriously, the joke: "how many blondes does it take to screw in a light bulb?" should become: "how many blondes does it take to get a gadget to work and how long does it take?"
We sat for 10 minutes trying to figure this one out and we're smart girls. Don't laugh. We are. Really.

Have more to post...but running out of time - you know, deadlines and annoying stuff that always seems to get in the way of blogging. How rude!

Jealousy makes you nasty.

I am officially ONE WIF VA SOUTH! Apparently, if you have been to the Black Steer in Mondeor, you are pretty much initiated into the clan!
Apparently.

Blondie 2 and I had a jol and I loved it. I even got a tour of her primary school, high school, ex boyfriends homes, friends homes and her corner supermarket -all after midnight. Lovely.

I'm really getting annoyed with the home page on facebook. I know this is random, but it's literally just happened and changed what I was going to write about. Oooooooh, I'm seething!!!
I hate the Home Page because it shows everything that is done amongst friends and so forth. Cyber bullying. It exists.
Jealousy really does make you nasty.
I don't get people. I really really don't. I am genuinely and utterly respectful and excited for someone and their successes. I am not insecure in someones success, instead I'm inspired.
I don't mean to sound as if I'm just perfect and such a fantastic person, but I am being honest and a little perfect -haha. Narcistic? Me? Sorry...
I do not understand why people have to be so incredibly mean, bitchy and nasty about someone doing well in work, personally or any means that could make someone happy.
I saw exchanged comments written on 2 "friends" walls, purely by default of the home page.
I can be sensitive. Really sensitive. It doesn't, however, take a rocket scientist to know who they're talking about when they're talking about an achievement with my initials attached.
I'm livid.

That's all. Just needed the vent. Thanks blog.

14 days to go. I really am pathetic. Hahahaha

Current Addictions

My man leaves tonight for that European Country. 15 days. 15 whole days.

My mates are like little Mother Hen's...they're the greatest. "Don't worry Blondie! We'll take good care of you. Your liver? Not so much. Drinks tonight?"

I got tagged by the lovely Being Brazen and so flattered little me, is going to oblige*

What you need to do:
*Post at least five current addictions (with some details please)
*Mention the person who started this game of tag (Being Brazen) and also the person who just tagged you (Being Brazen).
*Type your post with the heading "Current addictions"
*Tag at least two people and pass on the above rules

So, here goes:

1) Cafe Latte's. Let me rephrase. Skinny Cafe Latte's. I adore them. What more can I say?

2.) Boxing. The best workout ever. Plus it really seems to be working. See my previous post. I'm still smiling!

3.) E! Entertainment reality shows. Shallow and silly mostly, but boy it's entertaining and truth be told, I can't get enough.

4.) Nik-Naks. I love the delicious cheesy snacks. They look at me in the Pick N Pay aisles and beg me to take them home. What can I say? I do my charity service.

5.) James Patterson. I adore his books and itch every time I walk past a book store to see if he's released a new book

I have other addictions (all legal, I promise) but I really can't think of them. Brain is a bunch of mush at the moment.

Oh yes, Blondie 2 has invited me to the South. I keep teasing her that she had better give me excellent directions because I panic when and if I get lost. Thank goodness I have my passport on me.

*THANK GOODNESS...had nothing to write in this post! What a save! Thanks Being Brazen ;-)
