About Aussie Rules

It depends on what you want out of a football game - what I like is young blokes in tight shorts charging around trying to kick a ball through the goal posts - the two in the middle are goal posts and the two smaller posts on the side are behinds

Half the guys are trying to kick the ball through one end while the other half are trying to make the opposite happen

And the crowd stands around yelling a lot -

I went to the footy once - I had the best day - I yelled and screamed and really got it all out of my system - and the woman next to me ask me to keep my voice down and I looked down my nose and said

"Lady - we are at the football and this is where we release our oral aggression"

And I went on yelling - I don't like the footy much - and I had the best meat pie ever and I don't like meat pies - it was the best day ever

My team won by 2 points

@Decadian, that must have been really awesome! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.

If I ever fly to Aussie, I would check this out, for sure.

@Decadian. I just broke out in a raucous laugh reading you're post about football. That sounds like a fabulous day. Think I'd like to be around when you let loose and let your hair down. 😄

@Mazarita I think the whole band is playing at my house for you. Good for you 😄

@Faith-and-Hope I think champagne and food with no mess to clean up and no additional costs probably ticks three pamper boxes. That also put a smile on my dial.

I was feeling pretty crappy before reading your posts. Thanks for the cheer😊💜

@Snuchu. Don't stress about the sleep. As I've been told it will happen eventually. Just don't fight it. Spend the next 24 hours gaming if you have to just try not to let yourself down by doing something to put back your recovery. Seems like you've done a good job picking up the pieces in the last 20 hours or so. Keep going. I believe you can do this 😊💜

@Former-Member, thank you so much for the positive words of encouragement! That really cheered me up and it helps.

Yeah, the advice about just relaxing and allowing sleep to come whenever it happens is really good advice. I'm gonna follow that.

Sounds like an exciting time for you @Faith-and-Hope.

I can't wait for my daughter to get married so we can shop for a dress. Hope you enjoyed the champagne!!!

Back again a new woman: thoroughly cleansed, newly blonded, shaved and pumiced, perfumed and wearing all clean clothes. Thanks so much for getting me into this, @Former-Member! I might have done the basic shower without you but wouldn't be feeling this lovely.

@Decadian, I second that big laugh at your day-at-the-footy story! I seem to remember a day like that in my long distant teenage past, Collingwood versus someone, couldn't follow the show, we were a mile away in the stands anyway. But I too enjoyed the pie and the screaming (maybe you can tell by now I'm more arty than sporty).

@Snuchu, I'm behind you too with staying in a good place and agree that just relaxing and taking the sleep when it comes is a good idea. Hugs!

Hi @BlueBay 🙂

Hi @Mazarita

Sounds like you had a busy day!!!

I ended up buying some beautiful wool with orange, pink, brown, green tones. I have started to knit a scarf. Hubby and I took our dog for a quick walk earlier, the air is so cold and icy but nice when it hits you in the face 🙂

Cooking dinner soon. Hope you have a good night. xxx

Hey, @BlueBay. How are you feeling now?

@Mazarita, thank you! I've been in a peaceful state of mind, but no tiredness, but that's okay.

@BlueBay,

Not a busy day here overall but about the last 90 minutes spent pampering myself, as @Former-Member suggested we all do this weekend. Feel heaps better for it. 🙂

How wonderful that you got some beautiful wool. I love knitting but find it too expensive a hobby for me these days. Great that you went out for a walk and that the crisp air gave you a good feeling. Enjoy your dinner and I hope you enjoy your evening too. 🙂
