BooYah!
Last night I had 8 hours and 20 minutes sleep. I am physically swooning at the thought of it.
That’s FIVE HUNDRED minutes sleep.
*swoon*
MPS ended up sitting with Boo for me. Got him in his bed at 9pm.
The kid was asleep by 9.15pm.
Bastard.
I asked MPS if he farted in there, therefore knocking the kid out in a stench induced coma.
MPS hypothesizes that perhaps he is just boring.
I concur.
I went to work with a bounce in my fabulous shoe’d step.
With time enough this morning to paint my toenails a pretty shade of pink!
Now for the apologies. I have memes and awards backed up here. Gunna need some hospital grade enemas to clear them methinks. But I know there are more.
Remember the other day when I was whinging about Firefox and deleting my post? Well half of those zillions of windows I had open were memes to ‘remind’ me to do them.
So of course they are gone. *sob* GONE!
So please, if you tagged me for a meme or gave me an award in the last couple of months let me know in the comments here and I will do them, with flair and venom as is my style, and give you your linky lovin’.
Cause we all lurve our linky lovin’.
And speaking of linky lovin’ thanks to the awesome Stimey, I pink puffy heart her even before she nominated me for a Bloggie for Best Australian Blogger. Thanks Stimey, I <3 you too!
Now off to visit all your blogs, well, those of you that comment, wink, wink, say no more. Cause over the last few days I haven’t had two brain cells to rub together and you all deserve better than that.

Fantabulous! I hope you get five hundred minutes of sleep more than just once in a while!
January 9, 2008 at 4:37 pm
Wowsers, you sound as though you’re feeling like, 500% better… :) WOOHOO! Having 2 children, I understand the sleep deprived fog thing (eurgh).
PS. Gorgeous shoes!

OK – MPS is now officially in charge of putting Boo to bed EVERY night!!!!!!!
So glad you got some totally overdue, well deserved zzzzzzz’s last night :)
Love. Your. Shoes.
January 9, 2008 at 5:11 pm
I’m so with Boneblower on that one. MPS’ job now.
Glad to hear you had a great night’s sleep – now you can take on THE WORLD :) (or at least your little corner of it).
January 9, 2008 at 5:35 pm
Yay for sleep..xxx
January 9, 2008 at 5:52 pm
hooray on the sleep -you sound refreshed. What more can I say !
January 9, 2008 at 6:28 pm
Darn it! I was going to be smart and say that it looks like MPS now has a new job! But hundreds of people beat me to it!!!
January 9, 2008 at 6:32 pm
Wow…you have no sleep, ever, AND you work outside the home? The official Superwoman award goes to you m’love. You ROCK!
And I agree with everyone else: MPS can put Boo to bed every night!
Seriously, you must be beside yourself with joy. No wonder you’ve been feeling weepy. I’m only surprised you haven’t killed anybody. Long may the 8-hours-of-sleep continue.
January 9, 2008 at 7:32 pm
I pink puffy heart those shoes! (That felt weird. I don’t normally say things like pink puffy heart. Or squeee. Or w00t. What are you doing to me?)
But hooray for the sleep and if MPS is being shy about accepting his new job, just bribe him. With whatever works. ;)
I’m off to the Bloggies now. I’ve been meaning to put in a few good words for some people. (Is “Wink Wink” the right lingo here? I am so uncool.)
January 9, 2008 at 7:48 pm
500 minutes of sleep!!! Fantastic!
Sounds like MPS may be on bedtime duties for a while!
January 9, 2008 at 8:07 pm
So damn pleased to hear you got decent sleep!
I have handcuffs you can use to keep MPS in Boo’s room if the need arises ;)
Dem be nice shoes ma’am !
January 9, 2008 at 8:29 pm
Love the shoes!!
January 9, 2008 at 8:47 pm
Glad to hear you have paid off some of the huge sleep debt and are enjoying sparkly toenailed bliss today.
Cheers

I only just noticed that your shoes match the colour scheme of your blog. Freaky :)
January 10, 2008 at 12:04 am
I just have to say, your legs? Hot. Make me jealous…. I am like a tomato on toothpicks.
January 10, 2008 at 12:56 am
Congrats on the sleep! I’m sure it was well worth it!
I hate when the husband can do something in 10 minutes with the kids that it takes me 2 hours to do!!
LOVE THE SHOES!

Congratulations. We are big sleepers around here.
I love the word “whinging”. We don’t have that one around here, but I think I’m going to try to introduce it and see if it thrives.
January 10, 2008 at 2:15 am
As I write this, it is early in the morning where you are. I hope you’re sleeping, again, as you did last night. SSSHHHH. I’m going to let you sleep … oh, and MPS — good man. Done her right, you did.
January 10, 2008 at 5:18 am
OMG. I just “tagged” you for a blog tag about weird and random facts….you know I had to think of you for that, right? Anyway—I feel bad after reading about the last few days you’ve had. Technology is a pain and I feel for you girl! Never mind on the tag game, just know there is WT Mom love coming at you from the Mid part of the U.S.A.!
January 10, 2008 at 6:28 am
Bottle the farts. ;-)
January 10, 2008 at 7:30 am
Congrats on the sleep. Sleep is good. Solid sleep is even better. Sucks when the husband doesn’t suffer though. Mine then thinks “What’s the big deal?” and then I want to bitch slap him.
January 10, 2008 at 8:33 am
Ange – I fully believe in helping people gain the life experience they need in order to understand. If that means making their life hell for a couple of weeks, I’m willing to make the sacrifice. For their own good, of course.
January 10, 2008 at 12:45 pm
Many congrats on a good nights sleep. Doesn’t it feel like a million bucks? Well, how the hell would I even know what a million bucks feels like…I’d like to sleep covered in a million bucks or at least throw it around like Demi Moore and Woody Harrelson in that movie…indecent something.
OMG and I’m still laughing over here at the fart comment.
January 10, 2008 at 1:43 pm
Lovely shoes! :-) And it’s surprising what a good night’s sleep can do — congratulations! When I’m sleep-deprived, life seems so much rougher. Hey, I realize I’m pretty ignorant and uneducated about autism, but where do you stand on giving your son melatonin and/or Benadryl to get him to sleep through the night? Is that even a viable long-term solution? My apologies if I sound overly stupid…
January 10, 2008 at 5:06 pm
yay- glad you got a good sleep, and I am loving those shoes!
January 10, 2008 at 9:20 pm
wooot!! Well done luv! I’m with the others – MPS puts Boo to bed every night now!! lol
January 10, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Oh I forgot to mention that I had tagged you for that meme that I know you really really really wanted to do…hehehehe
January 10, 2008 at 10:08 pm
So glad you got the sleep that you needed. MPS is on sleep duty permanently – I agree with the others.
Lurrrve the shoes, they’re great. Thought of you today whilst at the shoe shop – saw a pair to die for. Not sure if I could walk in them but might have to get them anyway just cause they are sooooo gorgeous. Been a long time since I wore 3 inch heels though :)
January 11, 2008 at 1:43 am
I am so excited you got some sleep!! Your kids better watch out for you now…lol :)
January 11, 2008 at 4:01 am
You’re certainly my favorite Australian blogger.
You’re getting to be some kind of internet rockstar. You’re not gonna forget the little people (me) are ya?
Congrats on the great sleep. Funny how some good shut eye can just change your world, ain’t it?
January 11, 2008 at 7:20 am
Very good news that you got some sleep!
See the clour of your shoes? That’s the colour I am right now. Green… with envy AND lack of sleep! LOL
You DO sound like a new woman though.
