CrazyCanuck - ya mean this one? BTW, did they officially adopt it yet as your anthem? May as well. Your version is the best by far.
Waltzing Matilda
by Marie Cowan
Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong
Under the shade of a Coolibah tree
And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled
You'll come a waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
And he sang as he watched and waited til his billy boiled
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Down came a jumbuck to drink at that billabong
Up jumped the swagman and grabbed him with glee
And he sang as he shoved that jumbuck in his tuckerbag
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
And he sang as he watched and waited til his billy boiled
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Up rode the squatter mounted on his thoroughbred
Down came troopers one two three
Whose that jumbuck you've got in the tuckerbag?
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
And he sang as he watched and waited til his billy boiled
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me
Up jumped the swagman and sprang into the billabong
You'll never catch me alive said he
And his ghost may be heard as you pass by that billabong
You'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me.
Now, I gotta get off the bike and in the shower. (Yep, on the trainer while surfing. I love wireless!)
I need to shower, too. No trainer ride though.
Unlike SOME people (Trek......;) ) *I* have to go to work today!
man, I hate trying to pick out work clothes. Can I just go in my jeans and Ibex shirt? (Or my coconuts and grass skirt?)
How do you surf and ride at the same time? Is the computer balanced on the handlebars?
You guys are cracking me up this morning! And I'm actually working!
Salsa, sorry to hear about the kitty as well. Beautiful girl!
Nanci, good luck at IMFL - can't wait to hear all about it and see pix.
X -score on the small scrubs! They probably just razzed ya cuz you're in such fine shape girl:D Thanks for the poem too, I think we need that here today (I think we're about ready to loose it here).
Kit - I can't imagine choosing between the furry friends and our people. My heart goes out to you.
CWR - how's your melon this morning? Did you make it into work?
KY - thanks for showering this morning, lol. Oh wait - I didn't! I work in a shop with lots of dirt and sawdust so sometimes I just stumble out of bed and head to work. The good part is I can wear whatever I want and I work with all guys, so I bet they'd like the coconut bra outfit!
Lise - the Italy trip has me drooling! So how long have you and J been seeing each other? Glad to hear he passed the animal test - that's always a big achievement. And right from that to the family, huh? Have a great weekend and tell us all about it on Monday. I'll PM you my profile.
Here's my rant for the day: My 2 dogs are getting on my nerves. I have an invisible fence but one of the collars isn't working. My elkhound must have figured it out because she's been taking off into the swamp first thing in the morning and last thing at night (I can't see her in the dark). Now I suppose I could dig out my tie outs and tie them up but I'm too lazy. The border collie comes back when I call him but not Miss Thang. So last night I left her butt outside and left the back garage door open for when she decided to come home. Around midnight I hear her barking - at the front door! I was so mad at her that I just let her in and barked at her to go lay down. Da*n dog slept on my couch last night! So this morning I put their collars on and let them out in the front. Normally, they won't go around the side of the house because she got zapped once (which is why I was surprised she ended up at the front door last night). They stayed put. Yesterday morning after she decided to waltz home, I watched here turn around and stare at the swamp then get into the "pounce" position (I think she's a reincarnated cat). Suddenly a deer walks into the yard looking at the dog. They stare at each other....the deer steps closer....the dog holds her position....the deer runs to the neighbors yard and Xena gives chase and STOPS AT THE LOT LINE!!!! I don't get it, that dog will run through the back yard to the swamp and stops at the sides??? I guess I just need to leave their collars on again and if she does it once more I'll walk her into the fence. I hate doing it but it's bow hunting around here and she could get herself shot running in the swamp with her light-colored bootie. Arrggghhh....vent over.
I have a potluck dinner tonight and I'm in charge of the veggie. Couldn't think of anything last night and it's very cold and windy today so I made minestrone. And I finally get to play a board game - Apples to Apples!
salsa good luck with the kitty. hope she's feeling better and a beautiful little thing too.
x i have that dr seuss poem hanging up on my desk. the boss has even laughed at it. i'm happy i have a good boss!
dar the melon is feeling a bit better so far this morning, but the heavy duty drugs didn't seem to work their majic like they usuall do. i couldn't manipulate the vertabrae back to where it needs to be. which is kinda scary. usually it works just fine. i have to say i slept good. had a hot compression on my neck last night to relax the muscles and my puppies kept coming over to check on me and give me really wet kisses. ahh the doggie love. good luck with your rugrats.
thanks to our pilot i am now addicted to the sour skittles. he got a bunch for the trick-or-treaters and has a ton left over. they keep showing up on my desk. :eek:
*drools* sour skittles....
Quiet night last night, quiet day today. Watched "stick it" ... an obviously teen-geared movie about gymnasts. Interesting, anyway. Made me glad I had a childhood not centered around training for something.
Got a voicemail from the new job, regarding the results of my credit/background check. I'm on pins and needles, but I want to listen to it when DG is awake... but I want to let her get all the sleep she needs, so I have to behave myself and be patient...
gotta clean the house- having friends over for dinner... (!) Haven't done that in a while. that's about it...
Chica, I hope you can get your neck all fixed... I worry 'bout ya.

I'm off work today, had an appt with the Dermatologist. He removed 4 moles a few weeks ago, one just cosmetic it could get irritated and 3 were pre-pre-pre cancerous. It's healing fine and now I'll have to go see him every 6 months for a while.
My dermatologist commented on my "farmer tan" and light glove line, but the sun damage is where I thought "the sun don't shine"
I celebrated the progress by ordering an SPF protective shirt. Did you know that our clothes have almost no protection from the sun?
I wimped out on riding to the appt :o which may have been a good thing. Sky was dry when I drove there, rained while I was in, dry while I drove to get haircut, rained while I was inside, dry on drive home, now light drizzle...
you know untill i started looking at trave clothes and they say that they are SPF bla bla bla, i never would've thought about it.
i guess i just assumed that if i was covered then i was protected. well i guess not! my poor skin.
nope nope, according to the good doc non SPF clothing is about 2-4 SPF. In a way it's worse, you think it's protected so stay out longer.
Funny thing is my back is fine. He says even though I have dark hair and eyes complection-wise I'm a redhead and burn easily.
so sunscreen, hats blah blah from now on. :o
Wow, Trek, that's useful info. Thanks. I'm a blue-eyed blonde, with solid redhead on my mom's side. Come to think of it, I'm really a blue-eyed grey-haired person, the blonde used to be real though...:p Anyway. I am diligent about applying sunscreen to uncovered parts of the body, but didn't think about putting it under clothing. Now it's so cold here that I doubt any sunrays are penetrating my many layers, but come spring/summer, I'll be much better about getting it all over. Like Nanci, I like that Neutrogena SPF 45 spray stuff.
Glad the doc visit went OK, and that the reports were good on the moles. I got some vicious sunburns in childhood, and am sort of waiting for the other shoe to drop about my skin. I have one thing on my belly that was worrying me, but my doc said it was a "senile keratosis" or age spot. Lovely. Beats the heck out of melanoma! Give me senile keatoses any day! :rolleyes:
Lise "my doc said it was a "senile keratosis" or age spot. Lovely."
That's the keratosis that can't remember its own phone number and address. I talked to your keratosis yesterday at work :p
