I intend not to discuss politics again for a very long time but all of my international readers and those Australians who aren’t so keen on politics, please forgive me this one last post.
Random thoughts, quotes and text messages to and from susan on Saturday:
1. Please Liberal man, don’t come and hand me a “how to vote” card.
2. Are you watching the tally and peeing your pants?
3. “…and who the heck is the “what women want” party?”
4. Where are the corn chips? I need some chocolate STAT!
5. “If the Liberals win again I will cry.”
6. “Me too, mum.”
7. Woot!
8. I want to see tears dammit!
9. Bennelong! Maxxxxiiiinneee!
10. “Once the Liberal lose, it will start raining again and crops, farmers and the whole country will prosper.” (Husband’s prediction has indeed proven true as it’s a wonderful rain filled day today.)
11. “I wonder what Andrew Bolt is thinking right now.”
12. “You know we can’t rub this in any one’s face.”
“Yeah, you’re right. We don’t want anyone to feel bad or anything.”
“SUFFER IN YOUR JOCKS!”

Ahh, it’s a wonderful day today, isn’t it?
*Groan, yeah I know- pretty corny

hahaha @ ‘who the heck is the “what women want” party?’. i thought the same thing at the polling booth!
apparently, it’s these guys (i mean, gals):
http://www.whatwomenwant.org.au/home/modules/content/index.php?id=5
they have a whopping 780 members! Gee, and in a country of 20-odd million that makes them…irrelevant.*
i think i used up half my credit smsing you every 7 seconds with useful updayes like “haha!”. ahhh, one ALP-won election and i’m as giddy as a school girl.
*actually, they could be alright, but it’s all a bit kitschy
Assalam alaikum, sis.
I have tagged you for a meme, Tasmiya.
was watching ‘lateline’ last night, and hearing Rudd say that an apology to indigenous australians is imminent was like a cool breeze blowing through the house. it REALLY feels like things have actually changed! you know, i realised that i have never voted in a federal election that the coalition haven’t won, so long have they been in.
sister, it’s still feeling pretty sweet!!
halllelullujah!
I was literally jumping up and down and screaming! And it still cheers me up to think about it! No More Howard! My only gripe is that Philip Ruddock didn’t lose his seat.
Salaam;
Husband and I (he lived there for four years as opposed to my mere six months) are equally delighted! Seriously — I may have even uttered a WOOHOO when I saw he lost.
