Erin Wasson/ Bai Ling – it’s as if someone has played a practical joke with the stylist and swapped their orders – Bai looks so elegant (which is unusual) and Erin looks – I don’t know….. it’s not right that’s for sure.

I had a friend who passed away, who had said that she would like to donate her organs in the event of her death. Her mother however veto’ed because she was Catholic. The daughter was not but the Mother wanted to keep her daughter intact for religious reasons.

I emailed Jenny Craig to give my feedback (when they were still planning on supporting Kyle) and I got an email back yesterday telling me they were changing their mind etc. In it they said that they were trying to support Mel B in her role on the station or similar and that is why they had gone with it.

Very smart move changing their minds on it. Some companies would have gotten away with supporting the show, but not a company which has such an obvious market.

I liked the toothbrush montage. But how creepy was the movie?? Still feeling disturbed by certain aspects of it thinking back (years after having watched it).

I work in retail, and we get 50% off for uniform. I wont lie, having to buy clothes is annoying. But there is no pressure on us, I have worn dresses to work that are two years old, just added a new scarf or something. The way I see it is that you buy work clothes anyway, I just might do it a little more frequently. The pricing is okay at the moment, but lets just say I’m glad I don’t work at Sass and Bide or anything.

It would be interesting to know the percentages of patients that were eligible to donate their organs and the percentage that actually did. In my professional experience, most families consented when asked to donate their loved one’s organs. The issue with the stats is that it does not reflect the fact that most people with brain injuries are not, in fact, brain dead, and have been ineligible under traditional organ donation guidelines (brain death) to donate. As new guidelines come in that allow donation of organs from non heart beating (dead) donors, in certain situations, organ donation rates will probably improve, and this may be what is responsible for the rise in donation rates between 2010-2011.

You were fishing and caught a…fish?!? That is alarming! ;0)

No, I do completely understand the nervous feeling, sharks freak people out (I’ll be honest – it’s snakes that give me the heebie jeebies), but that’s why I get so frustrated with the media reports that fly around every year. In that article they mention 6 deaths in 6 years – that’s an average of one a year. We have had how many hundreds (or thousands) of people die in car accidents in the past 6 years? How many drownings? How many boating accidents?

On the list of things to worry about I’d be moving sharks to the bottom. Snakes on the other hand…;0)

I think mine would be “See you soon”.

Then I plan on coming back as a ghost, if possible.
