Yeah, I've made some poor choices in my short life.

HAHAHA justagirl! I'm actually the exact opposite though. When I drink my mind thinks that it's like some alternate universe where I can eat whatever I want and my body won't face any consequences once I'm not drunk anymore haha

I would tell you about the time I drank myself into a stupor but just thinking about it is making me dizzy. Oh Geez, I'm going to go lay down.

Blondebaby...I'm with you. I totally think it doesn't count what I eat when I'm drunk or extremely tired. D'oh.

Okay ladies, I going back to the original topic...sort of. I like being a girl, because I can think things like this are completely adorable!

One of my the members that I work with sent me these pictures from Australia. Here's the explanation, then the pics. So freakin' cute. (Let's see if I can get the pictures to work...)

It's been very VERY hot in the south and southeastern part of the Australia in the past couple weeks (end of january / early february) with temperatures at 45C (113F) for a week in south Australia and in the low to mid 40s in Melbourne and Victoria. all the wildlife suffers significantly in such heat, and here is an example of that.

Koalas don't drink water like most other animals, getting most of their water from the food they eat. in extreme circumstances, though, they will drink water if they can find it.

FYI for those non-australians- koalas are not kept as pets because it's illegal in all states of australia. They're not predisposed to being a classic pet either, unlike 'roos or most birds, which people are able to keep legally. So this little mate showed up and asked for help...

These photos show a little Koala which just walked onto a back porch looking for a bit of heat relief. The woman filled up a bucket for it and this is what happened...

Yeah...I sorta can't get over it! So freakin' cute. Except his little arm makes him look a little like a gremlin when he's wet. Still....gahhhhhh....cute

Have you seen the commercial for Pillsbury Crescent rolls with the little girl in the cold and she's clicking her heels like Dorothy? I think she is soooo adorable!

Luscious, that is the CUTEST, CUTEST thing I have seen in... well, a really long time. I love how the little dude just hops into the bucket!

I once heard that koalas only drink if they're so dehydrated they're close to dying, or otherwise sick. Hopefully, this guy was okay after drinking the water.

I like his little tongue lapping up the water. ^_^ Looks like a little pink uninflated balloon...

[lusciouslace]

Posted: 2/5/09 at 10:05pm

Yeah I like the second and third pictures the best, too...for the exact reasons you both mentioned.

And yes, that little girl is adorable!

Ah, me too. I'm trying desperately to finish a book though, and am tempted to not let myself go to bed until I do.

Sorry for being so shallow, but here's 2 more reasons to love being a girl, in honor of last night's NBC lineup:
