Urgent tasks?

Monday, 16th January 2006

I sit at the screen staring at the words on the page
All of a sudden I’m in a rage!
Some person has sent an email - urgent please read
I need you to complete an urgent deed.

I wanted it yesterday - it should be ready in fact.
If we don’t have those changes, I’ll have a heart attack!

So you spend the rest of you time just running around.
Until all the approvers you need are found!

Only to learn, it was a nice to have after all.
Some times, you just feel really appalled!

Weird Food Combo

Friday, 6th January 2006

Everyone taste buds are different - some people are just weirder than others.

Recently I have tried a vegemite and prawns sandwich (cold cooked prawns), being told by my boyfriend it tastes great. Admittedly the look and the sound of it weren’t all that appealing, but I’m someone that has to taste something before I go. “No thanks”. I took a bite, with friends around me seeing my facial expression, I exclaimed “It’s quite nice!” Because of the saltiness of the vegemite, it enhances the flavour of the prawn.

Another combo I have found in sandwiches was from a friend in primary school that used to always have peanut butter sandwiches topped with sultanas. I never did a sandwich swap with her to find out - guess I mustn’t been that adventurous as an 8 year old kid.

FYI: Vegemite is a famous Australian spread on toast. Its dark brown in colour and salty in taste.
