'that fowl woman'

got chooks. will egg. they were like $2 each! brown. chipper. am in process of building the hen taj mahal in the back yard as they quietly poo all over the inside of a massive open topped box until it is finished. which may be a few days yet. i'm here in castlemaine internet joint pickin up my useless computer, but pickley pix reckons he can chuck the hard drive in one of his spares and i got a letter in the mail from the govt/council saying broadband would be available to my address soon which made me shart with excitement so i may be back on line in a few months. garden going spastic. anyone for rhubarb? strawberries should be mental in a month or two. and i got a SWEET cherry tree. and a mulberry. and blueberry. and raspberry. mmmmm. berrrrry. anyway my girls are in a box and i'm here when i should be there making a decent home for them but fuck them. they're chickens. i'm looking into getting something called a dutch barevelder which lays chocolate brown eggs but dunno if they are a breed that could handle the heat i get here. cat is jealous. i have over 400 seedlings on the go in me greenhouse. might sell em at the market if i manage not to kill them. paving out front almost done. business plan for bein a full time sculptress nearly finished. go me. i am the egg man. koo koo cachoo.
love yas
p.s.
anyone wanting fresh air and sunshine and a bit o exercise, feel free to trundle on out for a weekend, i'd LOVE a second/third/fourth, etc set of hands for a few hours.. setting some fence posts in the ground, moving that fucking wood heater off the porch (just irritatingly small things i can't seem to manage with only two upper limbs) or i dunno, sittin round. but text or call me though. i dunno when i'll be in town next. cheerio chapperoos.

I can do Manly things... seriously I have a penis... I've seen it around here somewhere.

I require bribes in the form of food however.

If I recall correctly, it's chanter's turn to drive me up to your place... we can invite everyone.
What do you mean everyone?
EVERYONE!!

... but I digress with movie quotes.

With everyone the work would go quicker! Then we could bum around for ages when all the work is done in only a few minutes.

I love the way that I can put my metaphysical fingers in my metaphysical ears and metaphysically pretend that a load of work is really only a little. It's the only way I've been getting my thesis done! :P
