I think I've been on the net 13 years this month. How depressing - I feel old! I basically wasted my year out before going to university in chat rooms, although it was kind of fun.
Ruth sent me this link about a disabled artist, which I can identify with although I'm not artistic at all. (I get asked if I am a lot.)
Neil and Larry have both recently and independently thought I look like Kate Bush, even though I don't really. Maybe they're twins? Actually, maybe they're the same person - I've never seen them in a room together.

Welcome to my new 360 friends, Krystal and Anne! I've also been having some good chats with Alison from the yahoo group, who said my blog was entertaining :)
Laura managed to get the top off my nail varnish remover recently. Luckily I was around to confiscate it, but you'd think the manufacturers would put a child-proof top on it, wouldn't you? Or, as Neil would say, maybe I shouldn't spend so long grooming myself, then I wouldn't even need it. Men.

After lurking for years, I'm finally contributing and getting a lot out of the parents with disabilities group on yahoo. It's nice to be in a group that isn't moribund. ("Moribund?" - Alan Partridge.)
Disabled veteran Jeff Redding has been nice enough to link my blog into his list of amputee home pages
here, although he doesn't strictly regard me as one.

I notice Yahoo 360 has the intelligence to update my age automatically following my recent birthday - I'll have to do my profiles "manually" though. Thanks to Phil for remembering it!
On some parts of the net, like here and here, I go my the nickname "Precocia", and sometimes people ask me where it comes from. The answer is The Roman Holidays, which was a short-lived Hanna Barbera cartoon about a Roman family whose daughter was called Precocia. It had a good theme tune too. Strangely, I'd forgotten that the pub the family ran was called the Venus de Milo arms. Ha, ha.
A note to all my friends who forward alarmist messages saying that Yahoo is going to shut down free messenger on such and such a date. No, they aren't. These are obviously hoaxes.
Finally, I'm thinking of starting a written petition to Neil not to have a fourth child! Who's going to look after it? Yes, me.
