Congratulations on finishing moving all your reviews! :-) I'm sorry you're so anxious these days :( I hope the stress levels will go down soon.

I LOVE Adam Hills. Have you seen this one?

Thanks for that Maria, me loves a good Adam Hills clip! (And I did think of you when I posted the one above!)

Cool! I like making you think of me :D

It's perfectly natural to feel a bit on edge! I'm sure you'd be worse if you didn't have your kitties around.

Love the Dylan Moran one, we've had the chance twice now to see him live and haven't been able to make it. We travel through Hobart so many times but hardly get to stay there and do stuff!

Is it camomile that's supposed to be good for calming the nerves?

aurillia June 19 2009, 15:55:47 UTC

Yeah the kitties help :) It'll be better when Adam finishes his classes (on Monday) and I get to see more of him!

Camomile? No idea. Ginger's supposed to be good for settling the stomach, I know that much.

That is true. Are you afraid of stuffung up the interview? Just remember the elephant - you didn't stuff that one up! (although you did 'stuff' it, har har hardy har!!!) ..... sorry ...

Nice one Fer ;)

Yeah, they're those panel interviews and the questions are a bit scary. I'm always worried about having mental blanks and rambling - which tends to happen when I get really nervous.

Me being a know-it-all again, but when my MIL was being all passive aggressive to me, Tim gave me a bit of advice - that she can only get to you if you let her.
Easier said than done, but it did help a bit, just realising that someone is manipulating you, and that you don't have to let it get to you and just ignore it.

Thanks :) We both try, really we do. I mean, what can you say/do? It'd only make it worse. But it really rubs me up the wrong way and makes me so angry to see how she upsets Adam.

Aww... hope you start feeling better soon! Don't fret too much -- things have a way of turning out for the best (even if it doesn't seem so in the moment).

That first clip had me laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes! :)

aurillia June 19 2009, 15:57:28 UTC

That's what I keep telling myself!

I loved that second one! "You live in a jail..." Ha! And I must admit, I've always wondered about the Australian attitude towards living in a place where a great majority of the wildlife can and will kill you horribly.

aurillia June 19 2009, 15:58:26 UTC

Secretly, I think we love it ;) And we have a kind of pride in being descended from criminals, despite what Dylan says!
