Infertile/Broken Hearted? We’ll exploit YOU!
I read this article. It’s about the scare tactics and emotional poking at wounds that occurs in advertising fertility clinics.

But questions is it okay to use emotions in such an emotional area? The author…

Nude photos online, I feel your pain.
I feel terrible for the girls listed in THIS article. To have their privacy invaded in the way they say it has been. No one should have to deal with that. It’s wrong. And I can totally emphasis because it happened to me… Oh wait. No it didn’t. That never happen! You want to know how I…

Errr, Dad might have been right.
Today was beautiful. Sunny, warm, gorgeous. I spent hours shopping for groceries. I had lunch with my mother. I made a couple of work related calls. And I napped. Attempting to sleep off the growing haze. The fog of withdrawals. Seriously, you can’t tell me that it should feel this bad. I’m pretty sure if…

What do you say about you?
My Sister – A Liberator of People. For Sure. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you…

My Problem is…!
No one ever Skype’s me when my hair is done. Or NICE even. But mostly done. This is the view they usually get. Sometimes it is my office in the background. Mostly it’s this. The view from my couch. Facebook the iPhone App is always soooo glitchy. And slow. I hate that. You uninstall…

Hmm. How to be funny.
Something happened during the facebook comp yesterday. Something I wasn’t expecting. When people promote the giveaway, they often say stuff about your blog. About you. I was expecting that. And then Tina had to go and stuff everything up and say I was funny. Funnier perhaps than she. I know, shocked gasps, right! No one is actually going to…
