Some dude just said "Grand Pricks" on live radio.

Could he, by any chance, have meant "Grahn Preee"?

Why I Love My Mother

My parents arrived from Butterworth yesterday, bringing the dog and 2 crates of oranges (if you knew my family, this is nothing unusual)

I got home after work at around 830, suffering from a hideous case of sore throat. Which is also not surprising, considering I had fried cod, fried calamari, and fried whitebait for lunch (binge, much?).

Aaaanyway. This is the conversation that went on:

Me: Mom, I'm not having dinner tonite. I've got a sore throat.
Mom: Are you sure?
Me: Yes, I've got a sore throat.
Mom: I've just heated up the mutton curry - are you sure you don't want dinner?
Me: Yep, I've got a sore throat.
Mom: How about some fried banana chips?

It would've been hilarious had it not felt like I was constantly trying to swallow a chainsaw.

It's funny now, though. Although I'm still feeling like I'm swallowing chainsaws, and now I have this hippo sitting on my head.

I think I'm coming down with something.

I Learned Something New

I'm going to start my life right by (1) being grateful for all the little things in my life, and (2) learning something new each day.

However, being the depressed, psychotic and immensely bipolar bitch that I am, (1) is probably not, in all likelihood, going to happen in the near future. So I'm starting with (2).

I like learning things. And I like sharing (oh, how I like sharing - just ask Tim). So I present to you, dear readers, the very first installment of DarkThalia's I Learned Something New - a new word!


Pele's Hair

(PAY-layz hair)

noun - Thin strands of volcanic glass, formed when lava is thrown into the air by the explosion of a volcano. Named after Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of fire and volcanoes (and not the football star, you fools)
