How to properly handle accidentally taking one’s sister’s sunscreen home with you
THE NEGOTIATIONS: A MESSAGE TRANSCRIPTION Me: “I have your sunscreen. If you want to see it again, send an unmarked box of fruit’n’nut chocolate to 58 Ticktock Street, Booltchy Town. Umm, I mean to a random drop-off address. Oops.” Sister: “Meet me at 23:00 at the wharf behind the old abandoned car-park.” Me: “Okay, but the stakes have upped. Bring Diet Coke.” Sister: “Okay.” Me: Hmmmmmm….. #ransom #silly #slipslopslap #sunscreen

Poll: Tell me what you want, what you really, really want.
As I mentioned recently, we’re gonna be having a few little nips and tucks going on around Club Comic Mummy shortly. Namely cos it’s the only plastic surgery I’m likely to ever afford. But I want you! In a platonic sense (my hubby does check in here occasionally, after all). I would so hugely appreciate if you would take a moment just to give me your thoughts. If you’re not a big one for comments, no probs, you can vote anonymously and therefore retain your ghostly wonder, wh

Those crazy celebrities. Is there nothing they won’t do?
I know celebrities like to breastfeed to lose the baby weight, but come on. You’re grown women. That’s gross. #humour #breastfeeding #silly #celebs #mothers #mommies

Pressure to be pretty exhausts me
Okay, I don’t mean to sound like a real wench here. Truly, I don’t. Butt…(extra ‘t’ intended), I have to say it. While I totally adore this woman’s blog, her style, her shop, blah blah blah, whenever it comes to her “daily outfit” posts – which basically involve her posting photos of herself looking absolutely stunningly gorgeous, funkily adorned, made-up like a plush celeb and suitably blemish, hissy-fit and child-free, EVERY SINGLE DAY, I can’t help it. I feel inadequate. D

My favourite joke
P.S. I know the screen-cap for this is a SHOCKER! Heehee, but am keeping it up there as a challenge to my vanity. I’m not wearing make-up either. Oh, and on that note, there’s a great blog post about that very topic over at my uberly fabulous friend Rachel Hills’ blog. P.P.S. I’m running a bit of a silly, hmmmm, shall we say “experiment” over at my facebook comedy page whereby you can submit a suggestion for the title of a song. I will choose one that particularly inspires me

5 Movie Characters Who Could Make My Life Better
Image courtesy of i.zdnet 1. Mary Poppins. Or Nanny McPhee. Or even Nanny McPhee’s stick. I’m not fussy. 2. Tom Cruise’s uber-agent out of Tropic Thunder. To smack the heck out of my career. In a good way. 3. Edward Scissorhands. He could open letters for me and stuff. Or Captain Jack Sparrow. Or The Mad Hatter. Come on, it’s Johnny Depp. I’m not going to nit-pick. 4. Jabba the Hutt. He could help me make one heck of a naughty corner. 5. Leo out of Inception. Namely cos seein

The drunken audience member
So you remember I told you about that extraordinarily drunk audience member I inadvertently invited onto the stage last weekend at the Toowoomba Comedy Gala? And remember I promised you I’d upload the footage once I had it in my hot little hands? Well if you remember either of the above, you’re certainly doing better than my dear mate. Enjoy. #performances #hecklers #Improv #audience #silly #comedy

NYC Diaries Episode 1: The Driver
The moment I saw him, I knew he was my driver. “Why?” you ask. Because, dear reader, he entered the airport’s ground transportation centre in uniform, staggering and swaying like a drunk man possessed by a Shakespearian nymph, and almost falling over as he high-fived the various reluctant desk clerks. Please, I said. Please don’t let him be my driver. Please don’t let him be my driver. But deep inside, I knew there was no way out. He was my driver. And so, he – let’s call him

On meeting my british, wizard-like Mister Miyagi
My computer’s sound crashed this evening, as I set out to scream from the rooftops that today I…well, you shall see. Some may call this video ‘cheap and nasty’, I prefer to call it ‘cheap and artsy.’ x #videoblog #billbailey #silly #comedy #comicmummy

5 Things Making Me Smile Right Now
1. Denise Daffara‘s beautiful work. I really do dig her stuff, and check this one out, this is her just MUCKING AROUND, PEOPLE!!! Ooh la la, la la, la la! 2. The ridiculous feeling of superiority I swallowed yesterday, upon not falling for a second – not a second, I tell you! – for that whole “hey, today’s the day that Doc set the Delorian for, in “Back to the Future!” No, no, no! Obsessed geekburger Dedicated fan that I am… This is heavy! 3. Crossing things off my to-do list

Your Questions Answered! Installment #1
Alrighty, as promised, it’s the all-new question time! It’s the first one now, so brace yourself: here we go! Dear, darling Comic Mummy reader Isabel asks: …when something breaks why does it take so long to heal? Ah indeed. There are several points to ponder here. 1. This was not the kinda question I was anticipating i.e. one that treats me like an all-knowing, omnipresent being with answers to the secrets of the known universe. 2. In response to answering the question itself

Introducing the All-New “Question Time!”
Here at Comic Mummy headquarters, I’ve decided that we’re gonna introduce a little tradition known as “Question Time”. Because what am I, if not modeled on Parliament? *Note to self: last sentence = strange. But I can’t do it with you! No, I’m not talking to the person next to you, I’m talking to YOU, LADY/MAN/TEDDY WITH OPPOSABLE THUMBS! So, for the next few days, I’m leaving the comments open to questions. Questions, which I shall endeavour to respond to at my leisure over
