    Oh my god, if there's seaweed, count me out. We were canoeing once and flipped, and I was surrounded by seaweed. Had a panic attack in the middle of the lake while they were flipping the canoe back over because being in the water scared me so bad.

    That is gorgeous. If I were there, it would probably freak me out, but looking at the picture is amazing.

    Seaweeds nothing. I used to go prawning in the lake (Which has to be done during the night) and had something run between my legs.

    I dont remember anything on the way home, except for jumpng under the covers in bed freaking out. It would have been a giant eel , which we have, but still....I nevr went back after that. There are sharks in there sometimes....but the chances are so small (its a huge lake) Bull sharks too. The reason the chances are low is because until reacently the entrance to the lake was usually blocked.

    HAHAHA good point. Maybe I would have waited to piss myself. Or maybe I would just have dropped dead of a heart attack on the spot.

    Oy. I have got to get out of this house. The longer I live with my mother, the more she forgets that I did live on my own for over two years and don't need her to check in with everything I do so that I don't f*** it up.

    I know how you feel to a degree Rei. When our debt was at its worse and when we lost the house we had to move in to the misses fathers house. That man, as nice as he was, would backstab you in a heartbeat (with really bad comments in hint form)

    Freedom

    And this [ost just gave me deja vu

    Uh huh. When my mother first started working again, when I was in grade eight, I forgot my key a few times because I was still getting used to the idea that I had to let myself in. She still can't get used to the idea that I don't have that problem anymore and EVERYONE slips up on things like that occassionally and it's not a disaster when it happens. The constant reminders of everything jeez, and then she gets angry when I tell her that she needs to trust me to be an adult. If she does me, she would not need to remind me.

    I dont know if you hasve any siblings?

    But what i hate about parents is, when we moved in, my misses was treated like a useless girl (SHe a very successful laywer who works a hell of a lot of hours etc etc) and her brother who still lives at home at 32 and works at a petrol station and is a slob, gets treated like a god.....god i hate parents.

    Hey Neha. Li'l Pome (the baby) is doing ok at the moment. Have another ultrasound on the 19th of this month so really excited over that. Mase and Ami are alright, doing normal kid things and driving me insane! lol!

    How be you? Haven't seen you on here for a while. Thought you might have left.

    I wanted to be a father until i mean to girlfriends daughter....well she was 7 at the time, cute and nioce. Now shes a depressed teen. I judge her harshly, but because of her i want to cut my nuts off!

    And i actually wanted a daughter! How dumb was I

    (No offence women, but teenage girls are so much more [insert a cool word here] then boys)

    I choose spending the rest of my life with no children any day!

    (Mind you i was also a youth worker for 4 years, explains a lot too)

    Lavarian, you are absolutely correct there. Four definitely would.

    I have 2 days left in this trimester. Will be glad to hit 12 weeks because certain risks are greatly reduced.

    lol oops! My bad! (blushes)

    In the second trimester, the risk of miscarriage are smaller than the first trimester. So it is the 'safe zone' in a sense. The third trimester is the one I fear.
