I’d very much like to have a stern word with the person who named “morning sickness”. I’d probably be ok if it was just the mornings..

I found out last week that I am pregnant after my partner and I spent close to a year trying to conceive. I am overjoyed, elated, excited yada yada, but TBH I already hate being pregnant. I’m hoping much of this will pass once I get to the second trimester, but I feel terrible 100% of the time.

HA! I nearly just choked on my lunch. WHYYY TYRA?

I read on a different site today that he has checked in to rehab in the wake of this.

If you get bitten you'd get pretty sick for a day or so but they aren't deadly, and they thankfully aren't aggressive. It ran over my face and in to my hair, and then seemed to cling on for dear life. I had to pull it out and throw it *shudder*. The whole thing probably only lasted about 6 seconds but it felt like an…

BLERGH. I don't even know what happened to my face companion, I had to pull it out of my hair and in my panic I threw it. This was about 2 years ago now and I still will not walk between the two trees where it was living without triple checking, just in case it comes back for vengeance.

Ahh that makes sense, thank you for taking the time to explain it to me!

Oh without a doubt! I’m gonna to comfort my sore and broken body with a giant bottle of vodka

It is the sunny Sunday of a long weekend here down under. Usually I would be putting my liver through booze induced trauma but I am training for my upcoming karate grading so it's pineapple juice for me :(

Can someone explain to me how the whole grey thing works? I’ve only been posting for the last few months so I imagine I still have a long way to go to come out of them (have lurked for years) but I frequently see posters saying they have been in the greys for 2+ years. Do you have to be “endorsed” or something?

Hahaha honestly at this point I’m not sure how I’m alive. I live in the bush so the danger factor is pretty high. I’ve been chased by snakes, bitten by a (not poisonous) spider, stung by harmless but super painful jellyfish and in summer I have to protect my home from bush fires. But even with the danger and our…

They are really cool to look at, provided you are standing about 27 kilometers away

Wahhh gross! Mine clung to my hair, I had to grab it and throw it.

I don’t blame you! There are parts of my area that are known to be ‘hot spots’ for funnel web spiders, I refuse to live in those parts.

Nope! They eat birds *screaming*

I’ve told this story somewhere here before and people were horrified, so here goes. Given where I live I have many, many horrible stories about bugs/spiders but this was the worst experience. I was walking out to my car at 6am to go to work, texting a friend of mine (hint, never text and walk), when I walked in to a…

Yes. There is a “character test” element to Australian visas. If we don't want you here, you ain't coming.
