The most rambling and incoherent post in the history of rambling and incoherent posts

Look at me, third week in a row! Woot! Yes I just Woot-ed for the second time ever, :s Well I’ve not made much progress on the list this week, things were a bit crazy between the flights and the hospital and the casino and the hangovers but lots of stuff happened so I can update on that :D.

I finally tried both the Durian and Butternut pumpkin last night so I can OFFICIALLY cross those off my list! I am not sure the Durian was completely ripe but it was rather smelly! I didn’t hate it so I am going to buy another one from the markets this weekend and eat it when it is ripe this time. The butternut pumpkin was a hit in my special salad. Boy still rates Sweet Potato and Pumpkin over it (in that order) but it has totally overtaken Pumpkin in my stakes. (on another note I am sure you are loving my vegetable rambles, it is what you come here for right? Not the naked pictures? Damn because I was going to add one of those but I wont now)

I neeeeearly bought proper cupcake making things, but then I found Homer Hudson ice-cream here for the first time and decided to buy a million tubs of those instead. Even though I’m not even a huge fan of ice-cream, and I bought flavours I didn’t even want thinking Boy wouldn’t get so angry at me if I bought them in the flavours he likes… it didn’t work L

I told my Big Sis and Potato Head that I have to do 40 sit ups and push ups within a year, so that’s kinda like doing them…. My sister laughed at me but that’s not the point!

I donated $5 to the RSPCA lady out the front of Woolworths the other day. It was a proper note not just spare change!! I was proud of that. Plus I have started buying dog food each time I go shopping again. No I am not crazy, I know I do not have a dog (yet… shhh) BUT what I do is each time I go to the shops I buy a can of dog food, I collect a whole bunch and take them to the RSPCA so they have more food for the puppies so they can keep them alive for longer! I do not really have money to give at the moment but I can give food J Now this is a great idea, and we collected HEAPS of food, but then we moved to Mackay and it is all still sitting in my sisters pantry, they do not have a dog either….

I bought a present for one of my favourite flickrs/bloggers, but seen as I think she is, at this moment, popping out a little Bex then I doubt she got the email saying “give me your address pregnant woman!” L So that is sitting in my bag at the moment mocking me and my childless state.

We bought birthday presents for both my Big Bro and Boys Mummy, this keeps us on track with presents for everyone!!

We received the tickets to the Millencolin concert in 2 weeks!!! YAY!!!

I am totally, as I write this calling about getting my boat licence! Wait ok voicemail…. Nope do not like leaving voicemail, I’ll call back later… bugger

I have totally been looking for a photography group in Mackay but I think they do not exist L If any body knows of/can find one pleeeease let me know!

Hmmm I went for a walk this morning so I might start my “walk everyday for a month” thing now… Let’s try it, I am sure I am going to fail a few times so better start trying early!!

Now the make-up company thing… This is getting scarier and scarier. You know how when you love something a lot you are really scared at failing. Like my friend Catty who had her first daughter over Christmas. She was really worried about being a bad mum or hurting Lil’K somehow. I know this is like a HUGE scale of what I am talking about but I just have this HUGE fear of failing at make-up. I have no friends in Mackay to practice on so all I can do is just jump back in and book a job, but then what if I get someone’s wedding or something and I fail. I turn them into Miz Bobbi Brickhouse the Manly Goddess?? What if I ruin some ladies wedding by making her look like a drag queen?!? That scares the crap out of me. It is even giving me nightmares. See I have some awesome news…

MY BIG SIS IS GETTING MARRIED!!! She got engaged to her partner of 11 years on Sunday night. (you are toally wondering what this has to do with my fear of make-up right? Did I confuse you with my jump? No I do not have ADD just keep reading and you’ll figure it out… that’s if you have lasted through the other ramblings…) This is sooo exciting. Even earlier that day she said to me “how are you going to be my make-up artist, photographer and Bridesmaid?” It was a funny little joke until she rang me up the next night and said “so will you be my bridesmaid” and I was all “OMG OFCOURSE!” And I am so excited and I just can’t even imagine how stunning she will look on the day (which is only 3 months away, no - not shot gun, they are moving to London so kinda shot gun but no babies involved). But what if I fuck it up? What if it is all exciting because I am going to be her make-up artist and I crack and ruin it? Will she always hate me? Will her extremely attractive, successful, wealthy friends laugh and mock and it will be on my head. I actually woke up screaming last night from a horrible nightmare. Do you want to know what happened? Ok it may sound stupid to most of you but it is horridly scary to me….

I was doing a trial make-up run for Big Sis wedding. (A trial run is exactly that, you get all of the bridal party together and you do their make-up as a test to see if they like it and how long it will take and what colours will be used on the day.) So I was doing this trial but for some reason there were two other artists their doing two other bridesmaids. Those artists were both younger, prettier and less experienced then me. And for some reason I just kept stuffing up. I didn’t have all of my equipment so I had to keep running around the house looking for it. I streaked concealer ALL over my models face. I forgot to put lashes on. I used a pink base on a yellow tone. And I hadn’t even finished my base when the other two artists were finished the whole face and packing up. They were really mean as well. And omg it is making me hyperventilate just thinking about it.

There is no way I would make Big Sis pay for a make-up artist for the big day when I can just do it but omg…. I have to deal with this fear….



Ohh HAPPY EASTER everyone! If I dont post before the weekend have a great time and eat lots of chocolate!
