If having sex with anything would bring in more vieweers then they'd write it in.

I had never noticed before how crazily beautiful those ped. lights are.....or maybe it is just because it is Orange!

My favourite photo of yours at the moment is the 'Spooky Park', very moody and such beautiful composition darling. On another note completely unrelated......... I have been meaning to tell you that all your menus seem to be working spiffingly in Safari.......haven't encountered a problem yet. And they are rather a fabulous edition to your blog, so good job and thanks for keeping us Mac minorities in the user loop! And speaking of Macs, Fred's Kindy has one, how flash I say! Yay, mediocrity is not an option at St James! He he ;-) That dxd what a ratbag! My favourite photo of yours at the moment is the ‘Spooky Park’, very moody and such beautiful composition darling.

I am no longer friends with this person.

Acp I agreee on uncle daddy difficult explanation. Even the most open minded people seem to get confused and think emily and jake had baby, it's really not that complicated but find I have to explain everything in a particular order to not confuze people. There is a lot of : "emily is my sister:" "duhhnn...yeah" "jan is her partner" ".....ah...ha" "jake is my brother" "..yup... (mmm crayon yummy...)..." "jake donated sperm and jan had the baby" "your brother and sister did it?! ooh gross, is that weird?" "sigh" most of them get it the end and say: "oh wow what a cool thing to do, they should write that into an episode of shortland st" who are you acp? and yeah sam, ruin it for the rest of us. the gay couple were my favourite, I think we’re behind over here.

I guess I am a bit sensitive only because it's annoying when people assume Jan & Jake had sex to concieve our kids - annoying and also EEK!! No idea who dxd is - I think maybe someone who entertains themselves by adding random meaningless comments? Anyway you should join Karen as it is COOL and since you will be getting your digicam and all...
