Yep, I've done it again! I went to sit on an office chair in Officeworks and it slid from under me and I lost my balance, bashing my upper right arm on a fixture on my way to the floor. How embarrassing! And I said bad words! So there's a good bruise coming up. By tomorrow it'll be a lovely colour!

Just tried it and guess what? IT WORKS. 6 eggs and not one bit of shell. That's my lesson for the day. Have you had a lesso...

I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone. I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there. I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several...
