To discuss a Get to Know Me interview, plus Australian slang

Get to Know Me Week

Much like my guest post on Haute Pocket last Friday giving me a gateway to post morally corrupt material, Southern Belle wanted her latest Aussie dictionary post to find refuge on my site.
Southern Belle and I already have some history, after I wrote this co-blog in part because she correctly called me out for offending an entire nation. But she has stuck with me, showing me she is more wonderful than even her fun blog led me to believe. (Yes, I linked the crap out of that paragraph.)

Today, you can find her guest post below, defining an Australian slang word I had never heard of, so enjoy.

Also today, visit her site to read a Question and Answer post we wrote together that continues my Get to Know Me Week. In it, you'll find answers about my relationship with Capricorn, religious views and a random pop culture reference or two...

Thanks to all who have already volunteered and/or already posted their prompt for Get to Know Me week. If you missed it, check here. I'm posting everyone's links at the end of the week!
