That may explain the re...First: I'm a little drunk. That may explain the rest of this stuff. (I wrote all that first and then this last).<BR/><BR/>Oh man, I look forward to cold like that... Canberra winters are not friendly. Actually they're a lot like Longwood East winters, where I grew up and haven't lived for about eight years. Well I remember going on winter holidays up north for the warmth, and then coming home to the freezing cold hill. Fun times, in my childhood. But I loved the summers and the springtimes up there, with mum's beautiful garden in full bloom and the sun shining and the whole 40 acre property at my disposal for my amusement... I miss being eight. <BR/><BR/>Do you ever develop a feeling about somebody and wonder if it's reciprocated? I sometimes think of you as kind of like an uncle or something. And then I think, I'm just one of a hundred other bloggers and I'm quite sure you don't think of me as a niece! Then again, I don't really like any of my real uncles (except slightly two of them but even them I haven't spoken to in years and years) so maybe that's not such a compliment. Sometimes I think I'd like to meet Nicolas Cage and have a beer with him, he seems like good uncle material too. I'm short on decent family, my kids are going to have so many aunts and uncles who aren't really related at all. They'll be so confused. I remember when I was a kid asking my mum, "are John and Nola my aunt and uncle, or just family friends?" They're just friends, btw. I had no idea, we saw them just as much. More. <BR/><BR/>Man, I've had such a shitty week. I just had to kind of drink a little and then blab. I'm sorry it had to be your blog I did it to!

A boyfriend and I got into a snowball fight and I ran to my car and opened the door to shield myself from his onslaught of snowballs. He just kept on throwing those suckers and the door frame and lock and whatnot got snow in/on them.<BR/><BR/>I continued to have trouble unlocking that car door in the winter for many, many years later. I hope yours won't have the same problem because of this one lapse in judgement of yours.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I did some of the same things that HE and Pamela mentioned - hairdryer and lighter/matches. One night I didn't have matches and I ended up rubbing my key frantically to heat it up - looked like I was jerking off my key.<BR/><BR/>I'm kinda relieved that I only need push a button now to unlock my car.annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528972018222777551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28180198.post-21550316264880895012008-01-10T13:46:00.000-06:002008-01-10T13:46:00.000-06:00Goober!Goober!Romeo Morningwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10826410608415260786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28180198.post-48583701757261007462008-01-10T12:42:00.000-06:002008-01-10T12:42:00.000-06:00I did that once,not only creating an impenetrable ...I did that once,not only creating an impenetrable vehicle but also building my own little ice skating rink surrounding it. <BR/><BR/>While slipping and sliding around I attempted to heat up my key with a lighter so it would at least go into the lock. <BR/><BR/>No joy. <BR/><BR/>I'm sad that the police weren't called though.
