Give me credit: I smelled the vegemite. Let’s start slow with this, eh?

I couldn’t wait â I put in for another job online today, even though that means I’ll have to scout around a little more for job postings next week. This position would include veterinary compounding, which really interests me for obvious reasons. Meanwhile, this is the first entirely free day I’ve had in a long…
I’m playing catch-up here with a few things, which is my excuse for throwing what promises to be a quite disjointed entry out here today. The dentist appointment went fine (thanks for asking, folks). No cavities, the existing fillings do not need replacing, the one cap I have may cause problems in the future, but…
I saw the first episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day this morning (taped from last night). I was a bit worried about it, since the BBC show has teamed with STARZ and I’d heard they’d Americanized the show a bit. Since Torchwood is a remote spin-off from Dr. Who, and since Dr. Who has a large…
Today I turn six. For those of you interested in full details I refer you to last year’s entry on thisToday I Turn Five. I’ll provide a Reader’s Digest version for anyone who has better things to do than dredge up my past entries, though. On March 21, 1997 I collapsed at school and was…
It looks like no air show for this chicken. It’s raining off and on, and the clouds are low enough to touch. Hell, even the crows got lost in fog during their aerial fly-bys this morning. I’m bummed, but my friend is coming anyhow, and we figured we’d find something else to do. That probably…
OK, let me state right up front that bereavement fares are a joke. Now, I can understand that, since the funeral is two weeks away, it’s too early to qualify for a bereavement fare. I can’t actually order bereavement airline tickets until a week or less before the actual departure. But when I called around…
cute ornament!

Dear Salamander,
Thank you for your kind comment in my diary. I really appreciate it. Murphy is not just a dog, he is very, very special to me. I am grateful that you and so many others here understand just how much a part of our lives our animal companions become.
I love your kangaroo. So in Australia they have joeys in stockings instead of pouches? That’s almost as interesting as having Easter Bilbies instead of bunnies. I also love wallabies and other marsupials, birds, non-marsupial mammals, reptiles, amphibians and insects.
Just not the deadly dozen. I like pythons but I will not handle any snake with poison.
Thanks again & Love,
E.L.
how cute!
…..but have you tried the vegemite??
*smiles*

Ya, know, vegemite isn’t too horrific if spread with peanut butter on toast. I just don’t suggest doing that before 11 a.m.
LMAO!!
You my friend are scared too?? Its not a smelling salt, its food!!
OK, this is what you do……
Toast some bread (lightly only)
Add some butter to toast
Then use a scrapping of the vegemite to cover the toast, open your mouth, eat and say "yum yum" as you rub your tummy. !!
Listen…this is basic food that babies start on whenever they start sucking toast.This is the core, the life blood of aussies !!
You cannot let me down on this!! LOL
Aussies will kill for a jar or tube of vegemite if overseas!!
Bon Appetite !!!

I think Vegemite is ok, but the Kid LOVES it! I think he’d eat it every day if I kept it on hand. I’ve got no idea why he loves it as much as he does.

How does vegemite relate to marmite? I see Marmite in the gravy aisle in the grocery store.
Never been brave (or drunk?) enough to buy a whole jar just for a taste test, though.
BLECH to vegemite.
Re your comment, I wondered the same. I am assuming that being the paramedic I did not get all in infomation that the doctors passed. However, I’ve been around long enough now to wonder…
