I am online

Finally I have worked out how to write a blog. It is very exciting. Thanks frog dancer! The hardest parts for me have been 1) What will my name be? 2) What to write? 3) Convincing frog dancer that I am not weird!

1) Under control - widget be me!

2) Still not coping with it all.....Eventually I will work it out when I am under less pressure.

3) It will never happen. I have moments when what I say is so totally of the planet that even I am confused.

Thinking about this I realise that when I am not working (lucky us with a psuedo public holiday, go the gee gees) my brain moves to a neutral mode from which is quite hard to move....

So despite making an effort to actually learn about the process of blogging my day has been quite uneventful. I have been a domestic goddess (washing done, anzac biscuits made and lots of floors vaccuumed). I have had a volume on the radio war with my neighbours (old fogies rock vs new fangled music), I think I won this as they switched off the old fogies rock.

Actually I have had a discovery that I am no longer with the real world, my phone was disconnected (I have paid the bills) so it was a disappointment when I picked up the handset to call frog dancer that I heard the gentle sounds of wind rather than the dulcet tones of the dialtone. I then spent countless minutes on the mobile to the provider of my landline to find that my "call is important" but there was a glut of people ringing up to make a complaint. Still disconnected - I wonder what that means.......

Gee... your phone is disconnected?? I think it's a sign from the universe to stop gasbagging and start a blog.

Well, ok. Now that you've done this, your phone will be fine. And if it isn't... um... well, it's a sign that you're boring and should shut up.

Hey Widget - congratulations on your blog! I keep thinking of Gidget but that's Sally Field.

Sally Field - whenever I think of her I see her in her habit as the fying nun. Generally stops me from thinking of thinking of Gidget. Thanks Scott!

no when I think of Gidget I see her surfing and having seen Widget on the beach trying to surf I don't see the connection but that is another story as for the poop deck widget has more experience than gidget on that front.
