I am with you on the eyelashes - I've laid there in agony waiting for the time to pass, to then only see a hint of difference - but without tinting/mascara I think I look like a sick sheep - so I continue. So yes, I would pretend I have dark lashes. <br />I would also like to spend another day with each of my kids when they were little babies - when being smothered (with love) by me was their greatest joy - course not the case now they are older!!Jillynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-63095953824306465192011-03-30T23:33:35.892+02:002011-03-30T23:33:35.892+02:00No worries Lea - but chunky milk isn't good in...No worries Lea - but chunky milk isn't good in anyone's book (shudder)....<br /><br />River, I agree with yours except I'd change neck/shoulder for achilles and cholesterol level.<br /><br />I've never had my eyebrows tinted, Vanessa but have done my eyelashes a few times over the years. It's not fun when the dye seeps in under the cotton wool and vaseline though as you lay there in agony as the ticking clock lets you know that there's still ten minutes of 'cooking and hurting' time to go.....<br /><br />PlasMan, I've stolen enough of your memes, so go nuts. LC reckons that heels sure look great (and I'll admit that they make womens' legs appear longer) but he does chuckle at seeing some victims hobble along - that undoes any 'sexiness' that the shoes might have had.<br /><br />Wally, you need to set up a Facebook campaigh, ribbon day or website on the evils of the flickmixer tap. What was wrong with two, ordinary twist taps anyway??<br /><br />Hannah have you noticed that in most glamour shots of hot movie stars than when they're in ridiculous heels they're always photographed sitting down? Or writhing about on a bed/sofa/male model? Surely heels are for artistic purposes and not reality? :)Kath Locketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09677312773827236567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-34317796878815079672011-03-30T14:14:54.043+02:002011-03-30T14:14:54.043+02:00I think that writing such "pretends/wishes&qu...I think that writing such "pretends/wishes" is the first step to achieving ALL of them. Hopefully the Tony Abbott one soonest ;)<br /><br />In all seriousness, I agree heartily with many of these and wanted to hug you about the sleeping one. YES. And now my ridiculous bladder is transferring to daytime. My record this week was five trips between 9am and 12:30, with only one cup of coffee in between. GAH.<br /><br />Oh, and heels? The trick is finding some that look scary but actually have lots of support. And wearing them to events where you'll be sitting down ;)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495143040747871486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-43394360268627909792011-03-30T09:09:17.916+02:002011-03-30T09:09:17.916+02:00Nice list.

Devil spawn.<br /><br />I hate them with a passion, in showers they always result in you getting too hot or too cold and spending forever fiddling with the suckers to try and get it right (during which time 1/2 the water of the country goes down the drain.<br /><br />In a shower when you usually have head full of shampoo, eyes shut, thats when you bump the bastard by accident. It never turns the water OFF, just down, and alters all the mixing so that you either get scalded or frozen.<br /><br />Bloody horrible things. Whilst I'm normally a blind supporter of engineers as the people who took society out of caves and turned science into civilisation - with the inventor of the flickmixer I want to apply 2 bricks around his goolies AND THEN have him hung drawn and quartered. Civilisation took a step backward with that damn thing.Wally The Walrushttp://wallythewalrus.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14994418.post-9942421586880269022011-03-30T08:48:48.789+02:002011-03-30T08:48:48.789+02:00G'Day Kath,
