Hey, you athletic yoga types! Do you know of a good stretch for the lower back? Mine is killing me. It’s right down at the very base of my spine on either side, just above my hips. I can’t seem to figure out a way to work it out, other than having the Snook walk on me. (Ouch!)
SOUTH KOREA WINS!
1. Do you live in a house, an apartment or a condo?
For the next three weeks, a one-bedroom apartment. Then we’re moving to our new adorable little two-bedroom house!
2. Do you rent or own?
Rent. We can’t afford a mortgage at the moment. Maybe in a few years though…
3. Does anyone else live with you?
The Snook and four fish.
4. How many times have you moved in your life?
Ooh, lots and lots. Probably over fifteen times. (This move to the new place will be the sixth move in just over two years. Sheesh.)
5. What are your plans for this weekend?
I need to finish up the site I’ve been working on (yay, contracting!) and then get to the gym. I’ve been way too lazy since the race last weekend. I’m also probably going to work some more on the Storm at Sea quilt. Oh, and we’ve been invited to this party where everyone has to dress up as ABC characters. (That’s the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, not the US ABC channel.) I’m not sure we’ll go, though. The only characters I know are the “Bananas in Pajamas”, and I don’t fancy going out dressed like that. 🙂
England lost. USA lost. But my Banana Split Cake was a big winner! I decided to go with the “real whipped cream” option. It was goooood.
Meg came up with a fantastic new way to have fun with Google, and now everybody‘s doing it. Now it’s my turn.

Who are you?
Kim found an excellent report of the recent Buffy panel at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. All the important cast and crew were there, and they discuss a lot about Season 6 and what’s coming up in Season 7. Very recommended if you’re a fan… (Especially the bit about James Marster’s cheekbones. Phwoar!)
Question: My friend Major is hosting a World Cup Barbecue tomorrow night and I’d like to take a dessert. The only problem is the good old fashioned Indiana dessert I was planning to make requires Cool-Whip, which you can’t get here. (Snookums made a “puke face” when I tried to explain to him what it was.) So what do I do? I found some “mock” Cool-Whip recipes on the Internet, but that seems like a lot of work. (And the ingredients, though probably accurate, seem odd. Even if that’s what real Cool-Whip is made from, I don’t want to know.) Do you think I could just use (real) whipped cream? Or should I suck it up and attempt to replicate that lovely synthetic goodness?
Someone’s done the Aussie Big Brother contestants as South Park characters. HILARIOUS. My favorites are Damian and Shannon.
Jann has pictures of his new son up at his site. Sooooo cute…
