Feeling particularly tetchy this morning due to my Mother's Day being ruined by a bout of 24 hour power spews from J. Until that point (1.34pm exactly) was enjoying a lovely day. What's with this Sydney weather!!! I was actually smiling at strangers in the street!!!

Not smiling now though - after a VERY DISRUPTED SLEEP. Turns out J has Slap Cheek Fever.

I know a few people I would like to slap, starting with a few clowns featured in the SMH this morning.

Climate scientists cross with Abbott for taking Christ's name in vain
ADAM MORTON
May 10, 2010
TONY ABBOTT is under pressure to justify telling students it was considerably warmer when Jesus was alive after leading scientists said his claim was wrong.
He urged year 5 and 6 pupils at an Adelaide school to be sceptical about the human contribution to climate change.


Truly - are you allowed to just say anything you want when you are the leader of the opposition? He worries me so. For so many reasons.

All my old favourites in the paper this morning:

Bingle splits with Markson in quest for 'quieter life'
PAUL TATNELL
May 10, 2010
Lara Bingle has revealed she has split from controversial manager Max Markson in an attempt to live a "much quieter life".
In an unpaid interview with Grazia magazine, Bingle reveals she now regrets selling her story to Woman's Day for a reported $200,000 following the Brendan Fevola nude picture scandal, vowing never to accept payment for an interview again.

Lara has apparently put her hand up to Volunteer for Double Bay's Meals on Wheels.

And finally........................

Jessica's homecoming ranks among the biggest of Sydney events
Ellie Harvey
ARRANGEMENTS for the homecoming of teenage sailor Jessica Watson on Saturday are in the same league as New Year's Eve or Mardi Gras, classified by the Roads and Traffic Authority as a ''class one'' event.

Really?? Really?? The same as New Years Eve?? Sceptical myself on this one.

And the Dickhead(s) of the week goes to these talentless tools.

Pass the bucket - thanks J.

Loving Brynne now though - my new bestie on Facebook! AND she did not even mind the post I did on her!!! What a gal!
