-pauline thompson arrived @ 4pm; i held her hand and walked to the bathroom for my nice hot shower - hairwash today. also thanks to pauline who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-i had one tinkle before pauline flipped the nice hot water off, she dried and creamed me, and i had another tinkle. pauline rekitted me, and i had one last tinkle when she was doing elf's AFO straps/erf's laces.
-i held pauline's hand and walked out to the gobbling :P table, and she lemme make a perfect arvo tea, with not just two cheese, but two ham, also! :D what a perfect end to this month!
-while i was eating, pauline yakked on her mobile with her mum. apparently, deafness runs in their family, coz she was speaking VERY LOUDLY TO HER! XD
-when PIG mum told us to leave, she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the car, then helped me with my seatbelt! XD
-payline tootled me off to toastmasters, telling me that her boyfriend had asked her to move in with her, just as a trial run!
-taking me the loo once when we arrived, i let era open the tap lotsa and lotsa times, then had an awesome time @ toastmasters, which was holding a speechfest tonight! we ended late only coz leonard, who was scheduled for an eight minute speech, went on, and on, and on, and on! XD
-before we left, pauline took me once more to the loo and i let era open the tap lotsa, lotsa and lotsa times, then tootled me home. this time, we ran into traffic along the klumpp road exit; wonder what they're building there?
-back home, i signed pauline off, said my byes and thanks. she's heading over to springfield to spend the night with a girlfriend~
-dinner for me was whatever lucky PIG mum got to have out for dinner; some curry chicken thing, actually. kinda yuck. XD
-dinner was washed down with one mug of water, which i was very careful to hold 'correctly'.
-before returning online, i took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-toms: mid-morning torture session with vincent the bloody physio. >< dunno what PIG mum's gonna do while aunty wendy minds me for three hours, prolly go out and buy me some sexy underwear (she only bought me boring ones today :P) oh, and after aunty wendy leaves, must remember to complete my writers group homework on 'aftermath'. i'll write about origin 2012! :D
-hopefully she'll remember to buy me back some sushi for arvo tea with carol, who's coming to watch me shower toms arvo.
-best of all, it's house and dessert night toms night! only it's @ 8:30pm and not 9:30pm; should i have dessert, drink milk and brush teeth before/after watching house?

tuesday post 99

good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 7623 steps today (although about 3.5 grand were done last night); secondly, TWFT topic's 'a wall of protection'; thirdly, joni's devotional topic from last night's 'a long time' and lastly, i'm still owed SIXTEEN MINUTES after i get back home from toastmasters tonight!!! righteo, let's start off with last night's adventures first!
-actually, last night's events are worthy of a special blog post! i'll try have it up by saturday arvo, okies? check out www.embluekirby.blogspot.com for it! so let's start off with today's events, okies?
~after last night's adventures, it's really not that surprising that i slept all the way until 7:05am this morning until nature called!
-after one pot :P trip, i cuddled bear bear to sleep, waking to use the pot :P once more and kiss dearest dad good-bye when he left for work around 8:20am.
-happily falling back asleep with bear bear again, we cuddled and snored until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes' around 9am.
-when she came back, i used the pot :P for othree more tinkles, she got me kitted then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to the bathroom to brush my teeth, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was one slice of yucky toast (alas, PIG mum has more or less banned me from eating white bread) with the merest dab of butter and yummy lemon/strawberry jam ever, plus one yummy warm mug of horlicks, which i held 'incorrectly' while PIG mum was upstairs changing.
-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD. of course, she gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day, but she found this old westlife album for me! so today, we listened to westlife's 'face to face' all day, too.
-once PIG mum turned into logan road, i closed both eyes and had mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. opening my eyes somewhere along coronation drive, era helped ela stretch for five minutes, before she opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-PIG mum took me once to the loo when we arrived, then kindly left me the australian geographic magazine and went back downstairs to pay margit.
-josh came for me before i got the chance to start reading. XD
-i held his hand and walked well into the gym. 
-physio today: fifteen sit-to-stands, mat work, work for ela and elf, standing calf stretch to finish up. lol, anthony was funny: "can i roll up your pants to see your calf better?" he asks. "what if i said no?" i cheekily respond. he laughs and replies, "then i would use my deep manly voice to persuade you to say yes." i laugh and reply, "i'm persuade. go ahead and roll them up." XD
-afterwards, PIG mum takes me once more to the loo then tootles me off to sushi train for lunch. era helps ela stretch for fifteen minutes, then she opens and closes her palm one hundred times, holding each for a count of five.
-alas, before lunch, PIG mum gleefully FORCES :( me to walk all around woolies to buy dad's milk and other random items. the plus side is that the guy behind the counter gives me like two hundred bucks worth of those shop for school stickers! carol should be pleased~
-for lunch today, i had the inari (my favourite) and some cooked eel sushi! mum was in favour of this, saying, "yes em, the eels deserve to get eaten, considering how they beat the poor broncos last night." XD
-i didn't bring any sushi home for arvo tea, in the hope that PIG mum'll will get me some toms~
-when PIG mum tootled us home, i noted with alarm 'twas already past 2pm, but PIG mum wasted further precious minutes by gleefully forcing poor ela to open the glove box for her and put away her sunnies! ><"
-but after one loo trip (of course PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything) before i walked slowly and safely online, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-i visited the loo once more @ 3pm.
-and dominique should arrive in fifteen minutes; we're attending speechfest tonight! well, i'm attending, dunno what she'll do.
-anyways, fingers crossed i can return online tonight, else i've prolly got a torture session with vincent the bloody physio toms before aunty wendy comes to mind me for three hours. oh, and carol's back to watch me shower.
cheers,
em. ^^

-i took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo @ 9pm, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-toms: afternoon torture session with vincent the bloody physio. >< i'll try my best to stay seated, but alas, it's looking like another thirty minutes of standing for me. @ least i'll get to sleep in, though perhaps not really, coz PIG mum said sth about gleefully forcing me to do more bloody stupid exercises for her coz tonight, we're going out to watch the broncos take on paramatta! i'm super-duper excited, coz i haven't been to see a game for more than TWENTY years! let's just hope the broncos can win. XD

monday post 103c

good evening! em's new plodding for sunday now stands @ something slightly under 8540 (see, pedro felt awfully sorry for me that horrid PIG mum was gleefully FORCING :( me to plod on the bloody treadmill - even though today's SUNDAY; even the cruel and unfaithful god rested on sunday! - for twenty minutes and gave me more steps to make up for it. XD but hey, @ least i can say i'm over 8.5 grand today; that doesn't happen very often! oh, and joni's devotional topic's 'escape'. and oh again, the new spam count for the weekend's nine. XD righteo, continuing today's events?
-after lunch, the parents gleefully FORCED :( me to walk all the way back up to the rooftop carpark - only the third time time that's happened since the cruel and unfaithful god so wantonly destroyed my life.
-after dad tootled us home, i plopped online and waited for my visitors! bee and belinda arrived around ten minutes late, but after a brief chat and one more loo trip for me, we went out to sakuraya for drinks!
-this time around, i tried a chocolate chip frappe - delicious!! only it gave me mega-brain freeze, after i enthusiastically sucked the drink really quickly, and belinda burst into uproarious laughter on seeing the look on my face. XD she got some kinda green mango frappe for herself, while becki got some hot green tea with honey, methinks.
-we just yakked away until bee decided 'twas time to return home. :)
-back inside my house, we continued yakking until lams came for bee. i went to the loo once more before they left, then returned online.
-sadly, PIG mum awoke from pigland way too early for my liking, gleefully and immediately booted me offline.
-first, she gleefully forced poor ela on stupid exercises for her for 30+ mins.
-next, she gleefully forced me to endure fifteen minutes of the standing calf stretch.
-then finally, she gleefully FORCED :( me to plod twenty minutes on the bloody treadmill. ><
-i went once more to the loo before dinner, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-however, i'm definitely singing myself to sleep tonight, screw counting, coz dad took offence that i touched the sofa walking back and ordered that i do it again! ><
-but finally, i settled down to dinner: white rice tonight, with lotsa little tong vegetable, some sweet carrot, some soup pork/beef and maybe even a tiny little morsel of salty pork brisket! oh, and musn't forget the tofu!
-dinner was spooned down with one bowl of tomato, potato, onion and carrot soup, then i walked slowly and safely back online, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-only PIG mum, who was watching the olympics with dearest dad, suddenly called me over! "there's someone horseriding!" she called. of course, i scrambled over, and watched a woman and her horse perform dressage! of course, i know nothing about dressage and want to watch some showjumping, but hey, any horsey event is excellent!
-sadly, there was only that one contestant. afterwards, i walked myself slowly and safely back online, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-well, the horrid parents have decreed that bedtime for me's @ 9:30, even though i'm not seeing vincent the bloody physio until the afternoon! >< so one more loo trip for me @ 9pm, then fingers crossed i can come back with my final, final plodding total for today and spam count for the weekend, okies?
cheers,
em. ^^

-for worship, i stayed seated,  sang the harmony for two songs and era clapped along for one more.
-speaker today was some guy called sth like tim redeemer, who works for the cerebral palsy league and is a physiotherapist, just like uncle colbert! today, he talked about the scriptures.
-afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then dad tootled us off to cafe mi for lunch with anna.
-as always, we shared two meals between three people, but i got the cold chocolate drink to myself, @ least. i ate perhaps half a bowl of dad's hainam chicken rice, and 2/3 a bowl of the western meal, pork chop with diced vegies in gravy.

saturday post 101

good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding significantly less than 2522 steps today (coz i haven't been out; pedro's just loving me heaps XD) and secondly, TWFT topic's 'how jesus taught us to pray (3)'. righteo, let's start off with last night's events first!
~after mountains of forced exercises, the usual dinner and one loo trip, dad tootled me off to SHINE fellowship, telling me he'd bought the broncos jersey for me from the JB hi-fi @ strathpine.
-about eleven people attended last night.
-our ice-breaker game was to guess a dim sim that kathy taped to our backs with only yes/no questions. when kathy was taping one onto my back, i moaned to her, "but i hate yum cha! i only know like, three different dim sims!" she laughed, then reassured, "you know the one i'm sticking to you." XD 'twas fun asking questions of everyone. in the end, i actually had 'lor mai gai' (dunno what that is in english; that rice dumpling thing wrapped in a banana leaf?)
-after worship, we split into groups for prayer. i prayed with thomas, kathy and bernard.
-afterwards, thanks to heidi who walked once behind me to the loo, where i managed fine by myself, also letting era open the tap lotsa times. alas, she didn't lemme hold onto her hand because kathy had earlier not to, but hey.
-BTW, joni's devotional topic from last night's 'ryan leads the way'.
-last night, kathy, bernard and i did bible study from john 7:25-52. thanks to uncle kelvin cham who pushed my seat to join the circle everyone else was forming when thomas wrapped up.
-afterwards, dad tootled me home, where PIG mum was waiting to kick me straight to bed. without milk. :(
-today: i used the pot :P twice last night, once more this morning and once more when PIG mum left for work @ 7:45. then i spent the next ten minutes having mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied, before cuddling bear bear and returning to sleep with him, waking once more to use the pot :P before tess arrived promptly @ 10am.
-anyways, she lemme cuddle bear bear and doze till like half past, before i swung myself over to the pot :P for two more tinkles. after getting me kitted, we walked over to the bathroom where i brushed my yeeth (thanks to tess who squirted out some toothpaste for me), drank one mug of water 'incorrectly' then went and did a stinky unspeakable, also leaning briefly against the side rail and finishing my mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel.
-afterwards, i went over to wash and dry era, before tess and i walked out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast together.
-i've bemoaned before how saturday's used 2b my happiest days for most breakfast with tess until the parents put a stop to that, but still, today i enjoyed dad's yummy ham and eggs with one slice of cheese in raisin toast! and with avocado! :D
-i also drank one mug of tea, white and two, 'incorrectly'.
-after breakfast, tess massaged ela for like one hour while i played with her iphone.
-at midday, tess took me once more to the loo for two/three tinkles.
-back @ the gobbling :P table, i enjoyed one warm mug of horlicks (we're outta milo) and tried ringing aunty nga, but their house was empty.
-at 12:45, tess took me once more to the loo for four tinkles, but she stayed with me until PIG mum came home @ like 1:05pm.
-lunch for me was about half a bowl of rice plus one cup of water, which i took one big gulp from.
-alas, however, that dad demanded i walk all the way back to the gobbling :P table to drain the entire mug! but @ least he walked behind me, safety's important!
-anyways, i'm needing the loo once more now, then i've got like forty-five minutes for reading. :) fingers crossed i can bbl, else aunty shuk lai's coming for dinner, and there's just church toms, nothing special. fingers crossed i can have lunch @ plaza afterwards and that i'll get some visitors toms arvo!
cheers,
em. ^^

friday post 99b

-PIG mum tootled us home; i went once to the loo then tootled online until aunty lucia arrived shortly before 4pm.
~oh, have i mentioned PIG mum's newest plan to make my already hard to live life that much harder for me? now, it's become my job to turn off the alarm when we get home. that's fine, but the hard thing's after when i've disarmed it, coz i haveta turn back around and walk over to PIG mum's side, instead of walking around the car with era always touching it. *sigh*
-after yakking with PIG mum for around fifteen minutes, she Forced me to walk to the bathroom for my nice hot shower - hairwash today. also thanks to aunty lucia who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-i had one tinkle before aunty lucia flipped the nice hot water off, she dried me, i had another tinkle then got creamed. aunty lucia also spread aloe vera over my face and calves before rekitting me. i had one final tinkle when she was doing erf's laces.
-aunty lucia Forced me to walk out to the gobbling :P table for arvo tea; i enjoyed the yummy kaarage chicken sushi roll i'd bought for arvo tea when i was @ plaza for lunch. that was washed down with one mug of yummy mint green tea, which i took as the cup for today to hold 'incorrectly'.
-while i ate, PIG mum and aunty lucia yakked away. after i'd finished eating, aunty lucia took me once more to the loo, before i signed her off, said my thanks and byes.
-think i'll go finish that blog post about the dinner i had with the other SHINE fellowship people i had last friday now! well, after i get my naruto manga fix; i already got the anime yesterday. XD
-off to the last ever SHINE fellowship on friday night tonight! coz after tonight's meeting, we'll only meet once every fortnight on sunday arvo ... i'm unsure what to do... should i ask my visitors to come every second week instead, or should i just stop attending SHINE?
-toms: tess comes @ 10am then dominique's coming to shower me @ 4pm. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
cheers,
em. ^^

friday post 99


good afternoon! firstly, em's been hard @ work plodding 2939 steps today; secondly, TWFT topic's 'how jesus taught us to pray (2)'; thirdly, the spam count for the week's sixteen and lastly, i'm still owed FORTY-TWO MINUTES online after aunty lucia leaves!!! righteo, events for today?
~i used the pot :P twice last night, once more this morning and once more when dearest dad left for work around 8:20am. then i cuddled bear bear and fell successfully back asleep with him until PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-when she came back, i used the pot :P once more for two more tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when i felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum got me kitted, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom to brush my teeth, then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was one slice of toasted brown bread with the merest dab of butter and yummy strawberry jam plus one mug of yummy horlicks, which i drank 'incorrectly' when PIG mum was upstairs changing.
-after breakfast, i went and did a stinky unspeakable. of course, PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself.
-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dry both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD.
-of course, she gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to leo koo all day, too.
-once PIG mum left the driveway and started driving me to UQ for physio, i closed both eyes and had mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. opening both eyes somewhere along coronation drive, era helped ela stretch for five minutes before she opened and closed her palm @ least fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-PIG mum took me once to the loo when we arrived, only katrina met us when we were coming out! "slight emergency,' she explained. "one of our elderly patients is suffering chest pains, so we've called an ambulance for him just in case."
-so when PIG mum went back downstairs to pay margit, josh appeared and told me the same thing.
--physio today: about twenty-seven sit-to-stands, mat work and some exercises for elf.poor ela feels unloved. XD
-before we left, PIG mum took me once more to the loo. karl was seated outside, presumably waiting for a taxi, but he wasn't responsive when PIG mum said bye to him.
-when she tootled me off to see naz, era helped ela stretch for fifteen minutes, then she opened and closed her palm one hundred times, holding each for a count of five.
-alas, horrid PIG mum will always refuse to check downstairs for an available parking spot, but luckily, there was one upstairs available, phew. i'm not really angry @ her, honestly, she's taught me the importance of placing yourself first, see.
-downstairs, i asked naz to please cook some fish and chips for me, then leaned forward and whispered 'lotsa chicken salt for the chips, remember!" he laughed quickly and nodded. XD
-PIG mum then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to buy myself a sushi roll for arvo tea with aunty lucia. i chose a chicken kaarage one.
-then, PIG mum went and bought me an orange and apple juice. she was mean coz she refused to buy me a pudding milk tea, but @ least she didn't buy me a carrot and apple juice instead! while she was queueing in line, i sang 25% of my shorter second-favourite song softly aloud.
-i also rang dearest dad. who told me that he was somewhere around everton park/everton hills, and would drive me to SHINE fellowship tonight.
-lol, once my fish and chips were ready, i started tucking in. PIG mum nabbed a chip, ate it then almost spat it back out in disgust. 'eww, it's so salty!" she cried. thanks, naz. XD
-before driving us back home, PIG mum tootled us to woolies and gleefully FORCED :( me to walk all around woolies to buy myself some horlicks. going out through the self-checkouts,  though, she needed some help from the lady manning that section coz she actually scanned the horlicks a second time. XD
-hey, aunty lucia's here now, so fingers crossed i can bbl tonight, else expect a pissy plodding total toms, coz i'm not going anywhere bar SHINE fellowship tonight. tessa's coming to mind me for three hours toms, and dominique's coming to help me shower toms arvo. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!

-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk over to wash and dery both hands, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD. of course, she gleefully forced poor em to buckle her own seatbelt all day; we also listened to leo koo all day too.
-while PIG mum drove, era helped ela stretch for ten minutes, before she opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-physio today: ela got less than five minutes of time, coz it took like TWENTY attempts before vincent the bloody physio would lemme stay seated! meaning he'll prolly try force me to stand all next session, but i'll try my best to resist.
-afterwards, PIG mum took me once to the loo, i peeped into the curtain divider to whisper a hello to sleeping baby kayla, then PIG mum tootled me off to dr. lin's for acupuncture.

-of course, though, there was a catch (there always is, sigh)

-after lunch, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk back out to the 4WD and tootled us home, where i plopped online after one more loo trip.
-dominique arrived just before 4pm, but PIG mum took the next thirteen minutes explaining how she demands things get done in her house.
-but eventually, a nice hot shower for me - hairwash today. also thanks to dominique who rinsed out my hair for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-i had one tinkle before dominique flipped the nice hot water off, got dried, had another tinkle then got creamed. dominique rekitted me, and i had one more tinkle when she was doing elf's AFO straps and one last one when she was drying my glasses for me.
-we held hands and walked out to the gobbling :P table together.

-over afternoon tea, we just talked. dominique told me she's got one set of twins who are in their late twenties, that her hubby died several years back because of some mental illness but she now lives with her boyfriend somewhere near collingwood and that she's actually a school chaplain!
-after i finished eating, i taught dominique how to give ela a massage. she chose yellow with light blue spots today, BTW.
-thirty minutes later, she took me once more to the loo, before i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. she's coming back on saturday, and this is actually her first week working with CODA south!
-anyways, PIG mum's still upstairs in pigland; i think dearest dad's cooking our dinner for us right now.

~firstly, house was awesome, and even better, it's back on next week! :D
-i used the pot :P twice last night, once again this morning and once more when dearest dad left for work around 8:20am. then i spent the ten minutes till 8:30am having a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied, before cuddling bear bear and happily falling back asleep with him, waking once more to use the pot :P before PIG mum came and poked me with "fifteen more minutes."
-when she came back, i used the pot :P once more for two more tinkles, just swinging myself back into bed when i realised i felt like doing a stinky unspeakable. PIG mum got me kitted for today, gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to brush my teeth, before gleefully FORCING :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and yummy strawberry jam ever. i also drank one yummy warm mug of horlicks 'incorrectly' while PIG mum was upstairs changing.
-after breakfast, i went and did my stinky unspeakable. of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to dak myself, but i also leaned briefly against the side rail and finished my mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel.
-hey, the doorbell's just rang, dominique's here slightly early, so fingers crossed i can bbl, else i've got UQ physio toms. fingers crossed i can see naz for some fish and chips in the arvo and get a sushi roll for arvo tea with aunty lucia, who's coming to help with my shower. then @ night, it's the last SHINE fellowship on friday forever!

-at 9:10pm, i took myself once more slowly and safely to the loo, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-the trouble started when i went to put my custard puff into the oven, with PIG mum for some absurd reason chucking a cow @ me then deciding dad could eat my yummy custard puff, and not me! >< if that's the case, i am so very definitely singing myself to sleep tonight, screw counting!!!
-toms: late morning torture session with vincent the bloody physio. fingers crossed i'll have given PIG mum her own way enough that she'll take me to the calamvale BBQ and chinese restaurant for lunch!

XD oh, and joni's devotional topic's 'that other place'. anyways, continuing today's events?
-i had one tinkle before i flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried, creamed and rekitted myself. carol finished off with elf's AFO, then Forced me to walk back out to the kitchen to make my arvo toastie. sadly, she only ever allows one slice of cheese, which was ENTIRELY too thin, but carol squirted mayo for me, meaning this week's been satisfied twice over, yay. :) i also drank one mug of tea, white and two, 'incorrectly'.
-alas, PIG mum's diabolical showering regime for me means i only got time to read for five minutes before carol started massaging ela for just over twenty minutes. :(
-before she left, carol took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. she's back next monday, and is having crumbed fish and chips for dinner tonight, yum~
-i tootled happily online until PIG mum awoke from pigland, gleefully and immediately forced me offline.
-at least i got myself a reprieve from plodding on the bloody treadmill until next week, but i've gotta say, i'd rather plod on that thing rather than suffer period cramps. ><
-instead, PIG mum gleefully forced poor ela on 35+mins of exercises, then both hands on those stick exercises jason had taught her before leaving, followed by a standing calf stretch. ouch. :(
-one more loo trip for me before dinner. of course, horrid PIG mum gleefully forced me to do everything.
-dinner: rice, lotsa yummy broccoli and lotsa yummy wombok, one cube of fish tofu/egg, one tiny chunk of delicious BBQ pork and one tiny slice of soup pork. dinner was spooned down with one bowl of watercress soup.
-then i read the southern star for about fifteen minutes because the parents wouldn't lemme return back online yet. when i did go, i took myself slowly and safely back, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.

-when PIG mum came home, aunty wendy took me once more to the loo. PIG mum told me how she'd gone to have a peep @ baby kayla before leaving, and it just so happened that she was awake! suddenly, vincent the physio appeared behind her and said " you shouldsmile @ someone looking @ you!" and baby kayla immediately did! :) how adorable~
-i tootled online until carol arrived, one minute late today. she explained that a car had overturned along logan road, see.
-so a nice hot shower for me - i washed my hair today, but thanks to carol who rinsed it out for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut. oh, and 'twas hilarious! carol accidentally banged the soap/shampoo container, which fell off and squashed poor erf! "owww, my toes," i groaned. carol said, "oh no, they've fallen off!" but before i could react, she swiped her hand around erf and said "don't worry, i've stuck them back on." obviously, she was telling a porky pie, but i played along and said, "umm ... you blocked my view when you leaned over and stuck them back on, which toes fell off?" carol grinned. "just your big toe and the second one." then we both burst into laughter. XD
-argh, fingers crossed i can bbl! (coz i'm still owed ELEVEN MINUTES online!!! ><)

~great sleep last night, yay! nature didn't call till 7:45am, and after a pot :P trip i spent roughly ten minutes having  mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. dad came to kiss me goodbye before leaving for work, and PIG mum was in immediately after he'd left, poking me with "fifteen more minutes."
-when she returned, i swung myself over to the pot :P once more for three tinkles, PIG mum got me kitted, then she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom to brush my teeth, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.

-PIG mum tootled us off to patsy's for breakfast with margaret! i'd expected a sumptuous breakfast, but was rather disappointed with just a mini croissant and a mug of green tea, but 'twas so good to see margaret! i'd decided to keep her company by wearing a beanie like her, and i gave her a copy of the anthology our writers group had recently published.
-lol, talk actually turned to raunchy novels! XD apart from PIG mum and i, aunty anne was there, patsy, margaret and another anne, who's also a nurse.
-before we left, PIG mum took me once to the loo, although zero thanks to her who gleefully forced me to dak myself.
-back outside, patsy had me lean down and feel what was actually an elephant's FOOT! dunno where she gets such odd collectibles from! XD
-PIG mum tootled us home, getting her petty revenge on me for not taking elf's sock fast enough by refusing to lemme buy a yummy pork salad roll for lunch. :(
-actually, back home, she chucked a cow @ me, flouncing back inside the house herself. i sang my original second-favourite song @ least five times, walked the long way back into the house then sat over the loo for three tinkles before taking myself slowly and safely back to the gobbling :P table to sit down, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-but i felt all better after lunch today, coz dear aunty wendy cooked me one whole plate of yummy spiral pasta with tomato sauce, two slices of ham and a yolky egg! oh, and lotsa yummy broccoli and she even sliced the carrots into pretty flower-petal shapes! i drank one yummy cold mug of horlicks 'incorrectly', coz she couldn't find where PIG mum'd hidden the nesquik.
-hey, carol's here soon, so fingers crossed i can bbl, okies? else i've prolly got a torture session with vincent the bloody physio toms morning and acupuncture in the arvo. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week!

-we held hands and walked out to the gobbling :P table together. and score, pauline leemme make the perfect arvo tea!
-time to leave, pauline deove me to toasmasters! the funny thing was that she didn't know how to get there! i think that's coz she lives in the sunshine coast, or sth? she's from workpac, BTW, has twins turning twenty-one in september, and an elder daughter who's turning twenty-seven also in september. all live with their boyfriends. and she's actually kiwi!
-as always, toastmasters was awesome. :) and there's a speechfest next week, too!

-before we left, PIG mum took me once more to the loo, then tootled us back home for lunch. *sigh* she really does know how to hold a grudge, doesn't she? ><
-anyways, lunch was two yummy battered fish with a lil mayo, which took like FOREVER to cook! well, not forever, just around forty-five minutes when usually it only takes like twenty! XD i also drank one mug of yummy rice green tea, hopefully sweetened with one teaspoonful of honey, 'incorrectly'.

hello again! em's new plodding total for monday now stands @ 5972 and joni's devotional topic's "i'm full". righteo, continuing today's events?
-once we arrived @ UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then we caught the elevator up to level four with kat!
-today, i gunea pigged :P for about five students. first, i gave my brief medical history: "early 2007 brain tumour with complications (stroke) left hemiplegia and left hemianopia." then i looked @ kat cheekily. "can i tell them (the five students attending) what you taught some physio student about walking with me?" kat, immediately understanding, laughed. "go ahead," she smirked back. era raised ela, then i announced with a grin to the students, "excuse my french, but she holds on like SH*T!" laughter all around. XD i also outlined some goals i'd like to achieve in the coming months: playing piano with ela, being able to grasp objects and winning millions in the gold lotto. XD
-first, some girl did some assessment of ela, asking her to perform certain tasks, e.g. putting her behind my back and then rating the activity from one to ten on the difficulty scale.
-then, some guy who's been a exercise physiologist (what i like to call human movementists XD) for seventeen years got ela to practice holding stuff.
-and that was that! before i left, the teacher there alongside with kat invited me to get some morning tea before leaving; i grabbed a mini croissant, yum!
-while PIG mum tootled us home, era helped ela stretch for fifteen minutes then she opened and closed her palm one hundred times, holding each for a count of five. only 'twas hard to concentrate, coz PIG mum kept demanding i tell her what i did with the students this morning!
-when PIG mum tootled us home, i drank the 250mL in her water bottle then went to do a stinky unspeakable (horrid PIG mum both gleefully forced me to dak and un-dak myself), also leaning briefly against the side rail and asking percy please to help me get through the rest of the day okay.
-then PIG mum tootled us out to sunni cafe to meet mrs. dent and nana for lunch!
-it was great to see nana again. :) i gave her a copy of our writers group anthology and told her about how i was getting acupuncture once every week.
-hmm ... well, i wanted a chicken parmigiana for lunch, but mrs. dent somehow got me a chicken and avocado crepe! dunno if PIG mum had anything to do with that ... but i drank a yummy choc shake and we shared chips. and i think i finally remember! salt shakers have one dot but pepper shakers have many dots! XD
-after lunch, i went over to sunni bakery and got some yummy chocolate bun for arvo tea! aunty carol was there; i asked her to please say hi to uncle elwin for me. :)
-alas, after that, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk all around coles to buy the groceries for her.
-when she tootled us home, i turned off the alarm (at her order) then plopped briefly online until carol's arrival just before 4pm.
-*sigh* PIG mum's new diabolical plan for me, how to make me suffer as much as possible, consists of gleefully FORCING :( me to walk to the front door, unlock and open the door for carol.
-i headed straight into the bathroom for my nice hot shower straight after that - i washed my hair today, but thanks to carol who rinsed it out for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-argh, horrid PIG mum's gleefully forcing me offline to do more stupid exercises for her. >< well, fingers crossed i can bbl!

good evening! em's final, final plodding total for sunday now stands @ 5489. lol, almost past 5.5 grand! another day, perhaps. :) anyways, final, final events for tonight?
-at 8:20pm, PIG mum wandered over and wanted me to head off and prepare for bed! i argued for 9:30pm (which's still a RIDICULOUSLY early time, given my age! ><) and we settled for 9pm. still pretty grumpy, though. *sigh*
-so i took myself once more to the loo then slowly and safely, rising above god's hatred and not letting me push him over.
-toms: super-early wakeup time! normally, i've only got a torture session with vincent the bloody physio sometime mid-late morning, but today poor katrina (working on sunday!) rang and asked me to come into UQ toms instead! must remind PIG mum to cancel my session with vincent the bloody physio toms (and tell her to tell him to say hello to little baby kayla for me) toms.
-dunno if PIG mum'll lemme online when i get home from that late morning, but @ 1pm, we're seeing mrs. dent and nana for lunch @ sunni cafe! there's many, many yummier places i can think of where we could've had lunch, but hey, i'm just super-excited to be seeing nana! fingers crossed for a yummy chicken parmigiana with chips and gravy, or an avocado and chicken omelette with chips and gravy and a yummy chocolate milkshake!
-oh, also fingers crossed i can buy a bun from sunni bakery for arvo tea with carol, who's coming to watch me shower.
-righteo, hope everyone has a smashing week!
cheers,
em. ^^

sunday post 102c

good evening! em's new plodding total for sunday now stands @ 5405. righteo, continuing today's events?
-back home, i plopped online briefly until janice and julz arrived to take me to janice's house to meet their dog! and after one more loo trip for me, we were off!
-listening to 96.5FM, janice tootled us off to her place. did you know, their house doesn't have a landline!
-i finally met toca! janice said (me thinks XD) he's a poodle cross king charles cavalier spaniel who was born somewhere near the beginning of july. 7th, maybe?
-the funny thing was that i kept thinking toca's name was luca! XD he's teething ATM, so very nibbly. ela had great fun hanging gently onto his tail.
-janice made us all warm mugs of hot chocolate with like three mini marshmallows!
-so we all just chatted and played with toca. :)
-when janice ushered outside toca to the loo, julz walked behind me once to the loo too, where i managed fine by myself.
-back out, 'twas time to leave already. :( i bid farewell to luca/toca, whose actually named after one of jason mraz's backup singers!
-as janice drove outta their townhouses, chris and wilfreddy came back from their boxing sparring session! phew, there weren't any visible black eyes. XD
-janice tootled me home first. i plopped online, only for PIG mum to spend the next like forty minutes gleefully forcing poor ela to feed me a juicy pear.
-when dinner was called, i took myself once slowly and safely to the loo and back, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-dinner tonight: yummy white rice, lotsa watercress, some tasmanian fish that looked exactly like salmon and a tiny little delicious bit of yummy egg, spam ham and onion that i saved for last, of course. dinner was spooned down with one bowl of watercress soup, then i slowly and safely took myself back online, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-well, i'll need the bathroom once more @ 9pm. fingers crossed i can come back with my final, final plodding total plus the rest of tonight's events and what's happening toms.
cheers,
em. ^^

-afterwards, PIG mum gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the 4WD and dad tootled us off to church. i spent the trip with both eyes closed and having  mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied.

-after service, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then yay, dad tootled us off to plaza for lunch! only he warned me he'd turn straight for home if i asked him next week to check underground for a car park first. >< but golly gosh, i hope i won't haveta wait another MONTH before i get to eat @ plaza on a sunday arvo again!
-dad had a double whopper medium meal with a coke, PIG mum restricted me to just a whopper junior without chips and a apple and orange juice. dad gave me seven chippies, but demanded some juice in return.
-after lunch, dad tootled us home. hey, dinnertime, bbl! only i'm still owed THIRTY-NINE MINUTES online!!!

-annette arrived slightly before 4pm and Forced me to walk to the bathroom for my nice hot shower - i washed my hair today, but thanks to annette who rinsed it out for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-i had one tinkle before i flipped the nice hot water off, mostly dried myself, mostly creamed myself and mostly rekitted myself, having one more tinkle when i was creaming myself and one last one when annette was doing my AFO straps for me.
-annette Forced me to walk out to the kitchen to make my arfternoon toastie, but i'm not complaining, coz she lemme make the perfect one! :D OMG, that's FIVE times this month!! i also drank one mug of tea, white and two, 'incorrectly'.
-annette started massaging ela @ 5:15pm. after i'd finished eating, i started reading the creepy book club novel out aloud, only for annette to shush me! "read silently, please," she ordered. "you're gonna gimme nightmares." XD
-at 5:55pm, annette took me once more to the loo for two tinkles, before i signed her off and said my thanks and byes. she's having pepperoni pizza for dinner tonight (just the frozen ones you chuck into the oven) and will come back on tuesday and take me to toastmasters~
-i tootled briefly online, finished watching the latest naruto anime and manga. PIG mum scrambled downstairs right after dearest dad arrived home, gleefully and immediately booted me offline.

saturday post 100

good afternoon! hey, lookee, saturday's reached 100 posts too! sorry, though, wednesday reached 100 posts more than two months ago, thursday was soon after and i think monday just made 100 posts too, so sorry: saturday misses out on a medal. XD anyways, today i've been hard @ work plodding 3014 steps today (although like 2000 of those steps were done last night) and TWFT topic's 'a clear conscience.' oh, and joni's devotional topic for last night was 'sharing the manna'. righteo, events for today?
-firstly, about last night: 'twas awesome! when i find the time, i'll write a special blog post for it; check out www.embluekirby.blogspot.com!
~after all the adventures of last night, it's no small wonder that i slept right through till 7:20am before nature called!-after that, i just cuddled bear bear and waited for PIG mum to leave for work before i went back to sleep.
-actually, dad left soon after PIG mum did to attend some kairos course thing! aunty winnie came to mind the house while i happily slept and use the pot :P once more around 9:20am~
-when tess arrived, i called out, "aunty winnie! ding dong, tessa's here!" i heard her footsteps along our hallway. "i'm coming, i'm coming!"
-before she left, though, aunty winnie came inside for a brief chat. happy chan proudly showed off her nose to aunty winnie, emphasising that she's got FOUR nostrils. XD
-after she left, i told tess i was ready to get up, and swung myself over to the loo for one more tinkle. however, i felt like doing a stinky unspeakable and just returned to bed, asking tess, "when i'm brushing my teeth, can you please pour me one mug of water? coz i wanna do a number two." awesome tess just laughed, then just replied, "i've already got a cup there waiting for you."
-so after tess got me kitted for today, we walked over together to the bathroom and i brushed my teeth. thanks to tess who squirted some toothpaste out for me, then i drank the mug of water 'incorrectly' before going to do a stinky unspeakable, also leaning briefly against the side rail and having a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied.
-afterwards, i went over to wash and dry era, before tess and i walked out to the gobbling :P table for breakfast together.
-thanks to dad who'd fried some deliciously thin spam ham and eggs, and thanks to tess who added one slice of cheese for me. and did you know, she even brought me some WHITE bread from aldi!!! :D you know, you never know how much you treasure sth until it's taken away from you... :( oh, and i also drank one mug of tea, white and two, as my second cup for the day that i could hold 'incorrectly'.
-after i finished breakfast, tess massaged ela for forty minutes while i played with her iphone. somehow, all my contacts got imported onto her phone? dunno
-at midday, tess took me once more to the loo for two tinkles. she tried to make me one mug of milo but dad must've hidden the tin again, so she just made me another mug of tea.
-first, i rang aunty lai, and we chatted for around ten minutes.
-next, i tried to ring aunty nga, but it seemed like nobody was home, so i just drank my second mug of tea instead, while tess cooked me some fried rice for lunch.
-suddenly, mickey ang me back! only the silly boy told me, "i haveta go cross the road now. ring me back after i've crossed it." i was like, "mickey, did you forget i'm in australia? how can i see you crossing the road? just tell me what time you'll be back, and i'll ring you again then, okay?" he considered awhile, then said, "1:30." i told him i'd ring him back around then.
-when either parent returned home, tess immediately began massaging ela again. XD 'twas PIG mum, and she sat down @ the gobbling :P table with us, telling tess in great detail about her cirrhosis. 
-before tess left, she took me to the loo once more. she's got another session now, taking jasmine (who's fourteen, severely autistic and non-verbal) bowling.
-while PIG mum showered, i continued reading my book club novel, which thankfully, hasn't become too scary to keep reading yet. XD
-lunch was about 2/3 a bowl of tessa's yummy fried rice, plus two mouthfuls of water. by then, 'twas 1:30, so i tried ringing mickey again. this time, annie jie jie answered, told me that both mickey and aunty nga were out, but that uncle fung had just arrived home from work and was sleeping. i just asked her please to get aunty nga to gimme a call when she returned home.
-after lunch, i took myself slowly and safely to the loo then back to the computer, rising above god's hatred and not letting him push me over.
-actually, i also took myself successfully once more to the loo and back around 3pm.
-and now, i've got thirty minutes of reading time! :D
-fingers crossed i can bbl later tonight, else:
-just church toms, nothing special. well, bible study's back on.
-fingers crossed i can have lunch @ plaza/somewhere else toms!
-in the arvo, janice's taking me over to her place and i'll finally meet luca!
-righteo, hope to see everyone @ church toms!
cheers,
em. ^^

friday post 98b

hello again! em's final, final plodding total for friday now stands @ 2341. yay, i'm over two grand. :) righteo, continuing today's events?
-oh, the final, final spam count for the week's now twenty, BTW.
-after PIG mum poked me with "fifteen more minutes," i used the pot :P once more for three tinkles, she got me kitted for the day then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the bathroom to brush my teeth, before she gleefully FORCED :( me to walk out to the gobbling :P table.
-breakfast was one slice of toast with the merest dab of butter and yummy strawberry jam ever. i also drank one yummy warm mug of horlicks 'incorrectly'.
-can't remember if i went and did a stinky unspeakable after breakfast, but in the end, PIG mum tootled me off to UQ for physio. as usual, i spent the trip until somewhere along coronation drive having a mostly silent chat to percy the saint/angel, asking him please to help me with the patience, perseverance, strength and endurance i needed to get through today with, giving all the pleasure, all the satisfaction to PIG mum and just suffering for her when she decided that only she could be happy and/or satisfied. then era helped ela stretch for five minutes, before she opened and closed her palm fifty times, holding each for a count of five.
-at UQ, PIG mum took me once to the loo, then rocked back downstairs to pay the receptionist (margit's gone on hols, see) but kindly leaving me the australian cyclist magazine from 2010 to read.
-when jason came for me, i gave him the chocolates i got for him, jess and the other physio students, like pip and adam.
-physio today: mat work, work for ela and ten minutes standing practice sans AFO.
-after the session, ms. riggall did another twenty minutes of standing practice with me. think i did sth like another forty-two stands.
-one more loo trip before PIG mum tootled me off to see naz for a burger. :)
-oh, i changed the music disc to westlife's self-titled first album. for the first drive, PIG mum was listening to some christian disc in mandarin that her biu jie (my biu yee) had given her. and of course she gleefully forced poor me to buckle my own seatbelt all day.
-sadly, horrid PIG mum wouldn't check downstairs for an available car park first; thankfully, there was one available upstairs.
-i bought a kebab burger from naz. lol, the girl he called his sister last week has now become his niece! XD PIG mum got us a yummy pudding milk tea to share, and i rang dearest dad for a brief chat. :) oh, aunty frances also stopped and sat for a chat to PIG mum, too.
-thankfully, PIG mum tootled me home after lunch and not to woolies for more shopping afterwards, coz nature was calling! of course, she gleefully forced me to do everything myself, but hey, that's expected.
-i tootled online until aunty lucia arrived around 4pm to help with my shower - hairwash today. also thanks to her who rinsed my hair out for me, thus freeing era to hold my stupid right eye tightly shut.
-i had one tinkle before aunty lucia flipped the nice hot water off, she dried me, i got creamed and had another tinkle. aunty lucia rekitted me, and i had one final tinkle when she was doing elf's AFO straps.
-aunty lucia Forced me to walk out to the gobbliung :P table, then went to tidy the bathroom. PIG mum blewdry my hair for me, then gleefully FORCED :( me to walk to the kitchen benchtop and pour myself one mug of milk before giving me the 1/3 of the triple spring onion dad had left for me. the mug of milk i used as the cup i could hold 'incorrectly' for the day'.
-aunty lucia took me once more to the loo before i signed her off, said my thanks and byes. unfortunately, horrid PIG mum's taught her to lemme do everything myself, but hey. i manage.
-dearest dad just arrived home, too. :)
-well, thomas is driving me (and his wife, his daughter and his mum) to the german club for our SHINE fellowship dinner tonight! hope we'll have great fun! :DA
-toms: tessa's coming to mind me @ 10am, annette to watch me shower @ 4pm. righteo, hope everyone has a smashing weekend!
