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

Rough night. Rough days ahead. The diary is mine, but sometimes the story is not mine to tell. As often as not, I’m on the outside, a spectator to things that I play only a peripheral role in. I may be writing from my point of view, but that doesn’t necessarily make me the central…
Three Cats; No Waiting.
Saturday morning. I’ve been at the computer for a few hours, catching up on my in bin. Diaries, email, bills, newsletters. How it accumulates when I turn my back on it for a while. Still didn’t really feel like dealing with it, but Hotmail had other ideas about it. They don’t play nice when you…
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida
My favorite radio station is doing a “top 885” song countdown. I’m not entirely sure what number they’re down to now, but they started this morning and won’t end until Friday sometime. They just played In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. The long version. Simon and Garfunkle’s “Homeward Bound” has just started. It’s a very surrealistic blast from the past…

Of Passports and Cats
Yesterday it was changing my name with Social Security, and then changing it with the state on my license and registration. Today I got my new passport pictures for my passport change (they essentially make you apply for a passport all over again if you want to change your name). I was inspired to get…
On the whole, I’d rather be in Philadelphia.
I reacquainted myself with migraines yesterday. Why is it that pleasant experiences in life are fleeting, while misery doesn’t seem to need a forwarding address to know where you’ve moved to? I had full-blown migraines as a kid. The doctor said I’d probably grow out of them. I did. I’m assuming I’m entering my second…

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??

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…
