Status update (à la Facebook)

Jump to Comments

SG is waiting for a man in an orange suit to come and sort her out.

SG is wondering how on earth people manage to “get everything done” - there are simply not enough hours in the day. 

SG really needs a holiday.

SG is mildly annoyed by people who will not accept that their child has serious communication difficulties even though they are 5 and can’t talk.

SG watched United 93 yesterday and was really moved by it.

SG is hungry, but can’t go and buy any food until the orange-suited man has come and done his stuff.

SG has still got preparation to do for work tomorrow and really can’t be arsed.

SG has just given away the vacuum cleaner to a freecycler and is looking forward to the arrival of her new Miele (thrills ‘n’ spills, eh?)

SG has discovered an interesting fact: the following sentences are correct in both English and Afrikaans:

My pen was in my hand and My hand is in warm water.

SG really can’t be bothered with Facebook anymore.

  • Perhaps SG has done too many updates in one go…

    Hope the man in the orange suit arrives soon.

  • Are you about to be Tango’d then?

  • Pierre: he’s been and my car is now working again. Hooray.

    Masher: that would be exciting wouldn’t it? … but alas, no.

  • Hello again SG. It’s good to know that your car is working again. However, I have to express disappointment with what is obviously a fabulous new feature of WordPress:
    wordpress.com/blog/2008/04/25/possibly-an-announcement
    before I understood what it was about, I wasted several minutes trying to understand what the supplied “possibly related post” was about and what it had to do with you. And the answer, of course, is nothing. Do you like this feature, and if not is there a way to turn it off?
    I didn’t understand what was going on until I encountered the same thing in the latest post from”I am Genevieve”.
    I have actually just found another link, which includes how to turn it off, should you be so inclined

  • People who manage to “get everything done” clearly do not have enough to do.

    Lazy fools.

  • Hello again SG. I should really have sent my previous comment as an e-mail. Feel free delete it, and this comment when you have decided whether to keep the feature of disable it. Thanks, Pierre

  • Facebook is kinda boring now.

    I’m not so addicted as I was some time ago. *lol*

  • I like the microblogging facility that Facebook status gives us. I just don’t like the rest of Facebook; so I’ll stick to Twitter. :-)
