Am on holiday and genuinely surprised by how good my Spanish is until I remembered that
1. I don't speak Spanish
2. People are being polite to the middle aged drunk lady.

You can always tell when my daughter's been in the bathroom. She could fall into a black hole and still manage to locate and stack nine toilet rolls in a neat pyramid.

Well hello there sticky boobsweat
Again it's time to meet
You simply are no use to me
In the summer heat
My head it may need cooling down
My arms may feel the threat
But you really serve no purpose
And you make my bumcrack wet

You simply are no use to me

And you make my bumcrack wet

Weird to think of a bunch of very wealthy 70 yos voting on assisted dying. These guys must *really* trust their grandkids.

Honestly I wouldn't want an iron throne if they were giving them away. Uncomfortable, cold and a bastard to move. (My hot GOT take from 2011 there, you're welcome)

Cannot express my excitement after I changed the oven light today. Seriously ovens have little bulbs right at the back and you can just change them, you don't even need to call someone.

While cleaning the kitchen today I remembered 8 unrelated stories I wanted to tell my husband, five of which he'd heard before. I tell you what he's a lucky man.
