After six years of holding myself back, I've gone and done it.
As I walked across the living room I knew it was a bad idea, but something had taken hold of me, and I could no longer avoid it. I picked my way across the debris on the floor, stepping over magazines and boxes, and approached the prettiest thing in the room. Reaching out for the gorgeous blue and green being, I could hear my inner voice telling me not to do it, that it would only lead to heartbreak. But taking its silver casing in both my hands, I could feel the heat that only comes from three weeks of continuous electric flow. I closed my eyes and breathed.
I shook it.
After six years of holding myself back, I've shaken my lava lamp.
I think it's dead.

It's not toxic unless you eat it, or happen to work in, or live above, a dry-cleaning place. I once tried to make my own lamp-- it didn't exactly work, but I think the process was correct. The lava is a mix of simple parafin wax, and whatever-the-hell chemical they commonly use in the dry cleaning process. Play with it and you're fine, but you might have health problems if you live above a dry cleaning place.

4. "Its colour" should have no apostrophe.
---------
In the possessive the apostrophe is quite acceptable.

Actually, Bubba, in your superior wisdom of the English language, you failed to mention the lack of the necessary apostrophe in the word its (the one found in the first line). Read: It's nearly six PM. Note that this apostrophe would be used in the contractory sense and not in the possessive form.
And yes, you're welcome, too.

Buck up man, its nearly six pm...and no, living in the collonies is not an excuse.
I had a lava lamp that lost it's colour, went all white and looked like cum in a bath if you left it on to long.

The review above could be a textbook example of a sort.
1. No comma after "up."
2. No apostrophe in "it's."
3. "Colonies" is misspelled.
4. "Its colour" shold have no apostrophe.
5. "Too," not "to."
6. You're welcome.

cheers B.
If you had died in the olden days and then haunted a house, Derrick Akorah woulld come into the room where you were and turn to Yvette Fielding and say that he could sense a strong spirit nonce in the building.

Lol. If you had made it longer with more build up it might have gotten a +2.

You'd think that it would... but not so far. It's all little bits of wax.
