I've been given a research project to do, investigating peoples stereotyping of prisioners, and need as many responses to for the project. If you have a moment, please answer each picture as either being "innocent" or guilty".

There are various websites that I am addicted to - Zoe's observations on life, Postsecret which had an interesting entry today:

Pandacam is almost as good as the South African Parks webcam of a watering hole. However I caught sight of the panda baby today, and there's just no beating that!

Not only have we managed to decorate the office, complete with Humfrey the humping dog that shags the top of the tree, but have also managed the house. Thats right! The fibre optic tree is back! Girlpants & I are hosting the first crimbo thing of the year, so the house is swept & clean due to lack of sleep at 2am this morning. So now all I have to do is pick up family Edwards, shop, move bits around house, cook, make cocktails and get drunk.

Hard life ehh? Let crimbo begin!

Memo to self: next time el parentos go on tour

1. Make sure they take mobile

2. Ensure they've updated family on bills

3. Interrogate them on the vague possibility that the house is falling down

4. Make bloody sure that they tell you the EXACT day they are due back, not the day they fly out.

I did think that it was today - silly stupid me. Only another 24hours to go. Excuse me whilst I hack cough up a lung in anticipation.

My lecturer is Marjorie Dawes. She has the head nod, insults and "dust". In fact, I still expect her to come in and say "Until a law is passed to imprison fat people, the gluttons of Britain are free to walk the streets and attend special diet classes like this one". Except she teaches psychology. Which is a science. Except it isn't exact. And can't be proven in repeated research. But it is a science. But not chemistry science. As it isn't exact. But give it a few years and it will all iron out.

Dust?

I've thought this for some time but especially more so since speaking to el parentos in Malaysia. They've been proudly handing round photos of Girlpants & mine rather expensive party ie the wedding, which the rellies have loved. Until they looked closely and said "is that really Sim?". To which my politically correct mother said

"yes - she does look bigger but she's much happier now since meeting her man and can eat more" Which is another way of saying

FAT.

Must remember to thank mother properly on her return. Hiding her hair dye might do.

Or itching powder in her girdle.

So Girlpants is home - and already has gone back to work early to sort out the village politiks that are the University. Although trying to turf him out of bed this morning was hard as he is still 6 hours behind the civilised world and absolutely refused to leave the duvet or the warmth of the bed. Which was harsh as for the past week or so, I've been used to having the bed to myself and now need to get back into the old routine of elbow jab and finger in eyeball manoeuvres in order to get some of the bed space & duvet back.

Glad to have him back but quite willing to slap...
