..so then I guess I should just launch into a variety of poorly formed complaints about things that don't seem to bother most people at all. No point pretending. ;O)
Nothing worse than first blogs, I say.
So I'll not be offering one. No explanation, no disclaimer, no commercial or educational value.
I begin instead with a full (and honest) inventory of the top drawer of my bedside table for no particular reason at all.
- $2 book Pisces 2008 Guide from Go-Lo, astonishingly disappointing thus far
- Collins Gem Guide to the Kings and Queens of England
- Scratched CD titled "Hoopi Frood 06" which I'm too scared to listen to (although I am currently in training for that)
- MP3 player with lime green earphones
- lime green diary 2008 with first 2 weeks written in
- 3D Dr. Suess book mark, intact
- exactly 45 textas
- bookmark from Adyar bookshop, chewed by cat
- CD Mozart arias
- Euro Travel diary, containing damning evidence and the backbone of many future blogs
- pink noteblock - top page missing
- 8 pens
- Pisces Daily Horoscope 2007 - unnervingly accurate, hence the 2008 purchase and subsequent disappointment
- old school camera
- lime green bookmark with cats on it, tassel completely missing, ingested/chewed by cat
- 2 rolls old school camera film
- 2 "Opera Mania" CDs
- ghastly religious looking Xmas card from student to Jeff from 2 years ago
- 9 kinds of hand cream, full
- CD wallet with my opera stuff in it
- lime green cat collar, chewed
- sad and neglected looking Walkman containing CD labeled "STUFF"
- Pocket Guide to Budapest
- Pocket Guide to Paris (later, later, I promise, OK?)
- Pocket Guide to London - mangled and very well loved
- aqua blue "Thumb Thing" - device to keep book pages open so you can read in bed, no honest
- lime green fuzzy home made mobile phone sock, chewed, bell missing, possibly buried in the front garden by the Spider House
- several bits of glitter, origin unknown

Yep, I totally lost it when I got to:
"9 kinds of hand cream, full."
No further comment..
Actually, I enjoyed reading the list. Of course, I'm going to have to pinch the exercise for my own blog. I don't lack imagination, just effort!
NB: If you put your unused hand cream in Jeff's top draw and stop giving him sex for a few weeks, you will find it dissapears quite quickly I'd imagine.
