ReplyDeleteYou are a legend. I love ya Eden !
ReplyDeleteI loved it!
ReplyDeleteNice getting to know you a bit.
That's fantastic Eden. But what about the koalas? You need to tell that questioner...they are so not bears.
ReplyDeleteLittle Miss Pedantic Koala
This was great!! We need a weekly feature of you just being you:)
ReplyDeleteI am putting it on my calendar right now...get to it girl :)
One of the wonderful things about the Aussie accent is you can tell someone to fuck off and it sounds soo nice:)
Hahaha! Baby season!! Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteI sooooo agree that Nicole Kidman can't act!
Trip and I (his MOM) loved the video. He even laughed at your robot voice. :-) He says, "More Eden please."
That was high entertainment! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteBTW, do you actually like Men At Work? It seems they have, by default, become your national band playing your national anthem (because the rest of the world probably has never heard of Advance Australia Fair (yes, I googled it)).
LOVE IT! That's the best blog post I have read/listened to ever. I'm not kidding, you arsehole!
ReplyDeleteAnd I learned so much!
hahaha
xoxox
That was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely :)
ReplyDeleteYou are a total nerd burger.
ReplyDeleteAnd taco bell is NOT crap...helllooooooo....who has fed you this mis-information? Taco Bell is scrumptious.
Now I totally have to go to BlogHer so I can see YOU!! My favorite!!
ps - HOOVERS DOOVERS...HAHAHAHHHAHAHHA
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I didn't catch that.
You still didn't tell me what a Bickie is though.
AWESOME! Come visit me in NYC. Our squirrels are fearless.
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah. Still waiting for the karaoke videos!
ReplyDeleteAim a squerrellee mum, maet. Ey wont to git miself en thet boomereng leeg. Hilps to eet Vegemite, maet?
ReplyDeleteDON'T come to BlogHer this year because I can't go. Unless you ALSO plan a stop in Denver.
Let's make a date for 2010.
OMG, Eedz. I would SO love to meet you. SOOOOO.
LMF Arse Off at Baby Season.

Eden, I loved it!!! HAHAHA!!! I am laughing my ARSE off!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for that!
P.S., taco bell is crap, but it's tasty crap for sure!
Cynthiabu
Hilarious hilarous hilarous!!!
ReplyDeleteI nearly wet my pants at 'baby season'! You so should vlog more often! I love hearing your voice and your Sydney accent.
Oh my gosh, I think I have a girl crush on you!!! And I have a husband and kiddos. You are truly charming. Thanks for the pick-me-up. I wish I could visit Australia sometime soon- you've sold me on it!
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up, miss thang. That was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI so had the urge to go to BlogHer when you said you might be there...like oh.my.god. when is it kind of urge. Maybe you should be part of their ads, as I see there were a few others who thought the same thing. BlogHer could see the attendee list jump threefold just because of you! :-)
Love your american accent, too. Do we really sound like that? Surely not me, right?
Love ya!
E, lol I love ya! I so needed a laugh and I just got one. That was great! You need to do more of those! Very informative. I would love it if you could pass along any pics of Christmas time that I could show my kiddos at school. They would love it!
ReplyDeleteEDENIAN!!!!! Your voice HAS changed!!!
ReplyDeleteThat was my first thought as you started to speak 'OMG - Eden used to speak posh!' LOLOLOL!
That was very cool! Loved it!
you are hiLArious!
ReplyDeleteanother vote for a regular feature vid-post.
That. was. AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME!
ReplyDelete"I can hear the thunder when Dave farts." AHAHAHAHA!
Eden, I puffy heart love you so much. I don't know if I can make it to BlogHer next year but I am going to try so hard. And I agree with the others; a regular video feature definitely needs to happen!
XOXOXOXOXO

PS~ Am now horrified by how Americans sound to the rest of the world. Going mute immediately!
I loved hearing your voice!! That was so funny....and yes I say squirrel...squurrrlll. I don't say mom though, I say mama. I also say bless your little heart! I'm very southern.
ReplyDeleteP.S. sometimes we call Taco Bell...Taco Hell!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!!
ReplyDeleteOmg i laughed and laughed and laughed. Gorgeous. Funny. And has given me a craving for vegemite for brekky!
ReplyDeleteLove your work!
mwah! baby season!!
ReplyDeleteFuck, when is that?
Is amazing international following you haz here chicky, how'd you do that? I thought you spent all your time hanging around at Fresh ...
ReplyDeleteAnyway international folks, all Australian chicks with class speak like Eden, as do I. The only time in my life I've been told I'm softly spoken is when I was in Ohio. Read into that what you will.
Eden, why has it taken me so long to get here?
Love your shirt!
ReplyDeleteDo they have "Outback Steak House" in Aussie land? :)
more live comments.
ReplyDeleteomg. I love you.
You like to eat.
Why are you answering questions? Maybe I should read from the bottom. Maybe. But this is funnier.
Damn. I missed out asking questions?
Taco bell sucks. (i'm lying.)
lol. baby season.
omg. I'm SO going to steal your idea and do this too.
I hope you don't mind. Actually, I could care fucking less if you care or not. Cause I know you LOVE ME TOO.
That's a crappy american accent miss. But I can't do any accents. So there.
I like that you are just dissin' americans.
You arsehole squirrel.
Nice props.
Good lord. This was awesome. Im SO doing it.
I fucking love it and YOU! Thank you for the insight into Australia. Good to know dingos only eat babies during baby season.
ReplyDeleteI love you.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry I missed my chance to ask you a question.
Honestly, when I see you talk, I feel like I've known you forever.
I think I'll do this sometime..it looks like fun!
XO
I'm going to watch it again!
Love,
Pam
LOL! You're really funny! I was actually eating Taco Bell while watching this... I have to say Taco Bell is awesome! You're truely missing out!
