Ohhh, I want to crawl off somewhere and be sick. This move needs to be over already. I've been sick with more frequency in the last month than I have since going vegan.

I think I'm going to work on the puberty book a bit more tonight. I've just had a look at how far through I am and I'M NOT EVEN 1/20th THERE! This is scary.

I should go make dinner, but I'm not really feeling up to it, and it's hard to feel inspired when you're nauseous. All I really want is a good, hearty, plain dhal. Maybe I'll just make that.


Also, it hardly feels like I didn't go to work today since my boss called me about two or three times to discuss the MS I'm working on in office. Bah.

Edit to add: I've just discovered the word "pinny" in the puberty book, to refer to the vagina. Ahahahaha. This kills me.

On the other hand, what sort of slang word is that? The only thing I know of being called a pinny is an apron; otherwise, it brings to mind some sort of pincushion.

I am looking very forward to the move as well. I want to sleep again. I feel like I haven't slept properly in ages, and I think I am coming down with a cold. It's dumb. And I am also voting we go to bed early/sleep in as much as we can on Easter Sunday and Monday. We'll so need to take it easy.

Quite randomly, I booked a job today going to Reynard St, and it amused me because it reminded me of you. And your food blog.

We went to bed at 20:20 last night.

Dude, 10pm here. I was at the tennis club until 8, and then it took forever to get home.

Why do women feel the need to even write puberty books. Its kind of like there are 50 billion other ones, you aren't contributing to the world by writing this.

Uh, as far as I was aware from some of my younger friends, pinny is slang for a rather small penis.

Yes, I concur that I have heard "pin-ney" used for male genitalia, but only from those under the age of 7, usually the girls. Boys I've talked to, both at home and at work, love the word 'penis' and all the grown up slang words for the appendage.

The only close one in common usage in my office is "minnie" for vagina, and again usually utilised by females under 6 years old.

Could it be a typo?

I don't think it was. I think it may have been a nickname that the author uses with her daughter/s. The whole book's a bit riddled with stuff like this.
