PLEASE EXPLAIN????

Something is seriously going on with my site, I am unable to sign in unless I leave a comment on somebody else's site. Quite weird.

WARNING: SKIP NEXT PARAGRAPH IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW FOOTY, IN PARTICULAR THE COLLINGWOOD FOOTBALL CLUB.

What happened last night???? We are in desperate need of a please please please EXPLAIN. How could we possibly lose to a side that had only won one other game this year???? I had a very strong feeling that we were going to lose yesterday. Why do teams play crap all year and then decide to play well when they play us?? The worst bit was not that we lost to Richmond or that we gave away unnecessary frees but that we are CRAP. It seriously does not look like we are going to win another game. I had a thought last night walking to my car from the station; in the age of litigation ie. everybody suing, I wander if one day a crazy passionate supporter tries to sue the club they support for the anguish and depression they are experiencing. Crazy I know but I can remember a woman suing two of her male colleagues for sexual harassment because they were discussing something that happened in a Seinfeld episode. Of course this happened in America!! Anyway, next week we play the demons who we have not beaten for ages so not looking good at all.

NON FOOTY SUPPORTERS CAN NOW START READING

Yesterday I went to the dentist after a two year hiatus. All was going well till I sat in the chair and started to feel really scared. What if I needed a root canal or a filling? But all went well and apparently my teeth are ok- $240 later!!! Have spent the day at home with the kids and sick hubby. Too lazy and still thinking about the loss to do anything. Of course we had to have maccas for lunch. Hubby thinks he is dying with gastro. He has been moaning and groaning all day. Too much hard work, at least I managed to go to the supermarket and buy him lemonade icy poles. Geez I am a good wife!!! Actually I did take Miss Love Me Do to dancing class today. I think it is quite disturbing the way she pelvic thrusts and moves those hips at the age of THREE. But she does love dancing and admiring herself in the mirror. Next we went to watch MR E at soccer training, he ducked his head every time the ball went near him. I don't think that he is going to be the next David Beckam. And thank god, would not cope at all with Victoria as my daughter in law.

Just thought of another reason as to why I am a great wife:

AFTER COMING HOME FROM WATCHING THE VERY PATHETIC EFFORT FROM COLLINGWOOD, I WATCHED THE REST OF THE GAME WITH HUBBY WHO IS A TIGERS SUPPORTER. I THEN SANG THE TIGERS THEME SONG WITH HUBBY!!! NOW THAT IS TRUE LOVE AND THE SADDEST PART IS THAT I KNEW MORE WORDS THAN HE DID!!!

Facts....love them!

As you know I am fascinated by facts especially the ones printed on the strips off sanitary products. Actually whoever thought of that I believe is a genius and should be awarded with some sort of nobel prize. Anyway, just want to share some of my favourite facts which by the way, I don't believe are useless pieces of information. One never knows when she might be a contestant on 'who wants to be a millionaire' or 'sale of the century.' Here goes:

1. A person uses approx. 57 sheets of toilet paper each day (I believe that, we are always running out, does not help that I use it to wipe the vanity)
2. An office desk has 400 times more bacteria than a toilet (thankfully I don't work in an office)
3. The first couple to be shown in bed on television were Fred and Wilma Flinstone (how cute)
4. On average, women say 7000 words per day, men manage 2000 (no comment).

The following two are my favourite:

5. Every day more money is printed for Monopoly than the US treasury!!!
6. 50% of the population has never received or made a telephone call. This fact had me speechless for quite a while, then I had to make a telephone call to tell somebody about it. Very hard to believe, we can't leave the house without the good old mobile phone.

Hope you enjoyed the above facts.

On another note, I know I am a little crazy when it comes to my beloved Pies however I believe I am not biased. I give credit when it is due and acknowledge other sides. For instance, I think Geelong are fabulous at the moment and feel that they deserve to play in the grand final. I write all this because today I had a little altercation with somebody who is quite biased about their own side and keeps referring to their injury list. I know, I know, I am boring non footy supporters so better change the subject but lets just say I was quite annoyed.

Not sure what else I can write about. I know, I bought another handbag today. Very excited, it is black and quite BIG, to fit all my bits and pieces. Of course, will have to hide it from hubby, he is not happy about my collection of handbags. Suffice to say, I am quite proud of my collection and will take it into consideration when I design my walk in wardrobe in my new house. You should see the look on hubby's face when I discuss my plans with him. Speaking of hubby, he is such a closet Collingwood supporter (Mr and Mrs Maniac agree with this), who else would want to attend the Collingwood best and fairest night but a true supporter. Mmmmmm.
