As for being snide or punching her, well, I'm actually her manager so that might not go down well if she were to report it to my boss!

There's a new girl at work and she never bloody shuts up. It's driving me mad. Every time I ask someone something or start a conversation with them, or vice versa, she butts into the conversation. The thing is, she'll rabbit on for a full two minutes and then everyone will go dead quiet and the conversation will end. It's quite awkward. How do you deal with someone like this?

I hate sand and I don't even really like swimming in the ocean... not being able to see the bottom freaks me out. I've been stung by a jellyfish once before and ever since then I've stuck to swimming in pools.

I say it a fair bit. Indo, my cousin's little girl calls him honey too! She thinks that's his real name.

For me it's a toss up between Camembert and Haloumi.

8am-12 noon are pretty good for me, providing I get a snack at morning tea. Otherwise, my blood sugar drops and I get cranky.

Usually 1:30-2:30pm is my low point. I usually give up doing whatever I've been working on and surf the net.

Tabby cat for sure.

You're not alone!

JB, I too have one of the cube-shaped baths in my apartment. It's kinda like a shower tray with high walls. I really miss having a regular bathtub where I can stretch my legs out. Shaving in a tiny square tub is a real pain in the arse.

Woah caps.

I found some old Guns N Roses cassettes while sorting through some boxes last week. I have a cassette player in my car so I've been listening to them on the way to and from work. Oh, and apparently Axl Rose is trying to revive his career and is doing concerts in the US... a bit sad really.

I've never been to a bar with peanuts on offer for free... I probably wouldn't eat them anyway, I'm not a big fan of salty snacks.

Heh. Well, I know how to use a gun and I've often wondered whether I would shoot someone if they were threatening to hurt me or someone else. I think it would be a very difficult thing to do, even in the heat of the moment. Even if Hitler had a knife, I'd probably opt to shoot him in the leg and run.

I wouldn't shoot him. I wouldn't shoot anyone (in cold blood).

That's how I feel indonsm. Surprises are nice. But I also have no patience so when and if the time comes I'll probably cave and beg them to tell me

I wonder how many people want to find out the sex of the baby before it's born these days. I guess if it's your first child it makes sense, because you would need to buy everything from scratch.

My sister craved salt when she was pregnant... I think her doctor told her it was because she was lacking in minerals. Are you taking vitamins?

Yeah, fill us in. I love hearing the gory details... keeps me vigilant with my birth control.

I was very embarrassed but my date thought he was getting lucky for sure. Since then I've always carried a safety pin in my handbag ... just in case.

I try not to look at myself in the mirror at the gym. It makes me uncomfortable, staring at myself in front of a bunch of other people. I have, however, been guilty of sneaking a peek at myself in windows once or twice. Half vanity, half 'making sure everything's in place' I guess.

I was having lunch at a coffee shop today and was amused by the number of people blatantly checking themselves out in the mirrored window by my table. Some of them were shockers - puffing out their chests, sucking in their bellies, flicking their hair... my friend and I were having a good laugh over it. Do you check yourself out in windows? Is it a vanity thing or just a 'making sure everything's in place' reflex?

Hehe the majority of Aussie males are enlightened, or so I'd like to think...
