Regarding Mother Death, I have that phenonema too: Complete strangers want to come up to me and tell me their life story. I don't know if I look really approachable or something, but it gets really tiring. I try to not encourage them to speak, but at the same time, I'm so guiltily polite, especially when it comes to chatty old people, that I just let them ramble. And oh yes, aren't inconsiderate co-workers just the BEST? Can't ever think past their own little noses, now, can't they? Hrmph.

I call that the Confessor Magnet Syndrome. I must have a huge neon magnet glued to my head that says TELL ME EVERYTHING ABOUT YOURSELF - FOR FIVE FUCKING HOURS - OH PLEASE - DON'T EVER STOP. *flash flash flash* Doing anything wonderful for your birthday? I am....working! YAY!

Remind me never to get sick ever ever again so I never have to deal with the evil monolithic idiots that dispense our drugs.

We ALL have to pay for our drugs. OK its subsidised by the NHS but, hell, its not like you can say "Oooh, Im a bit short this month, I wont take any of this stuff thats keeping me out of hospital and buy some food instead." If you're sick enough to need drugs they should be free. so there. s x

Sorry, I meant we all have to pay for our drugs HERE. And another thing is they never tell you if something you've been prescibed is available over the counter so unless you're a pharmaceuticals expert and know, like, EVERY medicine, you can end up getting really ripped off. Aaargh! s x PS Rant over now!

So you have that glowing tell-me-all-especially-if-your-life-is-tragic-and-weird sign on your forehead too, huh? Sometimes I wonder how we get those removed. If I don't write again beforehand, Happy Birthday!

Here's a recent news story for you, kittycakes: "New Zealand filmmaker Lee Tamahori, who directed Once Were Warriors and the James Bond movie Die Another Day, has been arrested in a Hollywood prostitution sting while dressed in drag. Tamahori, 55, was arrested on January 8 when he allegedly sought sex with an undercover policeman while wearing women's clothes, according to a criminal complaint filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court. 'Mr Tamahori was arrested for soliciting. I can confirm he was dressed in women's clothing at the time of the arrest,' Officer Jason Lee of Los Angeles police said. Prosecutors confirmed they had filed two misdemeanour charges against the filmmaker: agreeing to engage in an act of prostitution and unlawfully loitering on Hollywood's Santa Monica Boulevard. 'He was arrested after approaching an undercover officer sitting in his car and offering to perform a sex act,' Frank Mateljan of the Los Angeles City Attorney's office said. Tamahori also directed last year's action adventure XXX: State of the Union with Samuel L. Jackson and Willem Dafoe and 2001's Along Came a Spider with Morgan Freeman. He is due to appear in court in Los Angeles on February 24. Tamahori was released on $A2650 bail." THAT, I understand, is what's known in the trade as a "Doing a Bonaduce" - in reverse. Love, R xxx

Feh, who needs Valentine's Day anyway? What, so some damn company makes even more profit by preying on our insecurities. Feh, I say, and feh again. *grin* I'm ignoring it, and going to an anti-V-Day poetry reading. And I'm bellydancing, so I'll do a chest shimmy in your honour.

Your Freida series is rocking Witty! I'd commission a piece but I'm not sending you any nude photos of me. You have enough horror in your life (insurance companies be damned for eternity) without adding more.
