Cathy's 50s Housewife Friday...It's So Easy.

Happy 50's Housewife Friday Y'all

Hope today finds everyone as happy and relieved as me to have the weekend rolling around again. By the way, can't believe it's November already!!  I know I always go on about time speeding up lately but I can't believe this year is already heading to a close.....

Blasting from the stereo on the school run this morning, Seven's choice:

First track of the day : You could be mine - G n R

With ur bitch slap rapping and ur cocaine tongue u get nothing done....

A great way to start the day.

Speaking of my long time loves - the original line up of GnR - I saw on Facebook this morning that they are making a movie of my first ever fantasy boyfriend Duff McKagan's biography, 'Its so Easy'.
Anyone who has spoken to me this year has had this book shoved down their throats, his story so beautifully written, his journey a complete inspiration. It could definitely have done with a lot more sex, but the drugs and rock n roll were more than enough for me to get to know my beloved better.

So I sent him a Facebook stalk message this morning suggesting that I could be in the movie starring as one of his wives or girlfriends. I reasoned that since I unfairly never had the opportunity to be one in real life I should at least get the chance to play one in his movie. Looking forward to hearing back from him heeheeheehee

Anyway, back to the real world....

My 50's housewife duties today have me on the search for the perfect leopard print ballet flat at stupid renovated retail hell called Indooroopilly Shoppingtown,  then I was on the bake for a very special baby boys Naming Ceremony at which my hunky hubby has the honor of becoming Godfather. Some delicious red velvet and chocolate fudge cake pops are on the menu. A nautical theme for some of our bestest friends day,  I am using red and white and blue and white striped straws and they should be pretty damned adorable.

2nd track of the day:

Joan Jett - Do u wanna Touch Yeah!

Followed closely by

The Killers - Somebody told me

A txt photo comes through on my phone as I write this, of my bud Gutterball Pete, wearing an Ace Frehely mask and a top hat, taken out in the city streets this morning......
What a classic end to a very cool and enjoyable 50's Housewife Friday.

Dan and I are heading out tonight to go and see one of our fav bands eva, the mighty Tumbleweed at the Zoo and hang out with some very fabulous people. If ur in BrisVegas tonight, you should def head to the Valley and come join us. U won't regret it.

So time to put these baby cakes in the oven ,chill some beers and put on my reddest lipstick before Dan arrives home from a hard day of manly work. It's easy to be this sweet when it's only expected once a week.

Send off track of the day, Gutterball, this one goes out to you!

Kiss - Love Gun

You hold the trigger of my......dadadadadadadadadadada

Have a great week guys!

Cathy's 50s Housewife Friday (Saturday)...Halloween Edition

Gene Simmons, oh yeah!

Happy 50s Housewife Friday Saturday - HALLOWEEN EDITION

Hi everyone! Yes, I'm back!

 Have missed you all but my absence has been due to some very unforeseen circumstances that I am getting ready to share with you in the very near future, when I'm emotionally able 

So forgive me, and welcome me back with open arms for my beloved:

50s HOUSEWIFE FRIDAYS - HALLOWEEN EDITION!!! (on a Saturday).

First horrific song of the day:

Dead Souls - Joy Division

Ah yeah!

Followed quickly by:

More Human than Human - White Zombie

To this day White Zombie is one of the best bands I have ever seen live. '96 Festival Hall (R.I.P.). Waited out the side to meet and greet Rob Zombie, who signed my CD and smiled at me while I said something stupid and lame about how great they are.

But back to 2012...

Ghosts of Halloween Past

Am currently in the middle of  an organised chaos tornado preparing for a bunch of crazed children to hit our house for our annual spooky celebration.

Have been cleaning and baking up a storm like a good one-day-a-week 50s housewife, and have an assortment of my Pops ready to go, Frankenstein heads and mummy cake pops, and my new marshmallow pops which I am trialling for the first time...

Everything appears to be running hellishly and worryingly smoothly so I found 5 mins to wish you all a very Happy Halloween, and to ease myself gently back into reality, which I try to keep as much of a fantasy as I can but, that damned reality tends to creep in sometimes right?

Send-off track of the day:

Run Bitch Run (I've got a gun) - Betty Detox

Bwahahahahahaha

I always knew my
husband was the devil

I'm not kidding x

50s Housewife Friday

‎50's Housewife Friday's playlist began with Skid Row - Skid Row. Rad album!

Scared Xavier in the car on our way to school with my sing-along excellence of I Remember You......he seemed eager to get out of the car...

Next, listen to 2 Madonna records while baking nutella chocolate cake for cake pops and some choc chip cupcookies for tomorrow's hangout with some of our fav peeps, all the while carrying on a 3 1/2hr phone convo with my brother in Ireland.

And I rang him....if I had a 50's husband, he'd kill me!

See you next Friday!

Introducing Cathy's 50s Housewife Friday

I mentioned earlier this week that I was excited about introducing some regular features by my fellow bloggers and I am so happy to announce the first of what we hope will be many 50s Housewife Friday's.

Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss a moment of how our goth rock goddess transforms herself every Friday to a somewhat stereotypical traditional housewife...with a twist, of course, as unique as Cathy herself!

I just hope she's stayed away from the cooking sherry...

Personally I have a sneaking suspicion I'd make a lousy 50s housewife. After reading the guide below, I think only with copious amounts of Xanax would I be able to get through a single day.
