Got to play dead behind the wheel of a moving car. My pard in the passenger seat ended up shoving my booted foot under the brake pedal in his rush to take control, meaning he wasn't able to stop the car soon enough to prevent a collision with the car in front of us at about 30mph. I had my seat belt on. He did not. No one was seriously hurt, though, and it was a hell of a lot of fun.

Back seat man: "SPLIT!!! HIT THE FUCKING BRAKE-- OH SHIT, HE'S FUCKING DEAD!!!!"

Pard: "FUCK FUCK FUCK! AAAAAAHHHH! OUCH! AAAAAAHHHHH FUCK FUCK-- FUUUUUCK!"

To his infinite credit, after bouncing off the dashboard, pard was able to reverse out of the collision and pull a j-turn at about 35mph, driving from the gap between the front seats with one hand. He's a fucking stud in reverse. If only he could drive in the forward gears.

We were all grinning afterward. Okay, so one of us was grinning and limping. Good times. Good times.

I'm about to make the cards for the decoder treasure hunt my son dreamt up for his birthday. Meanwhile, I must remember to stir the lemon curd for his cake. This is after having made 8 liters of vegetable sauce for the lasagne, making tonight's dinner for the family, buying even more groceries for the back-to-back birthday parties we are holding this weekend. Started off the morning with a sick child, grandma took care of him for 4 hours, so that I could go in to work for 3 hours. My husband is laid up with a bad foot and can't do anything. Wondering if I should work on the tzaziki tonight while the kids sleep or do it tomorrow. Decision after completing decoder cards. (Luckily I've got some organic cola sweetened with sugar cane in the shed, if I need an energy boost)

Beware! "bunnies" are amoung the most devious foul tempered rodents around. Watch Monty Python's "Holy Grail" if you dont believe me.

Good??? Who knows what horrors are down below that trampoline? Sounds like they have an "Osama Bin Bunnie" over there.

Jeez. Poles used for Scottish political ends.

What's Warsaw's stance on the situation?


They're just happy for the cash-in-hand income.

Misty Jr. Should write a children's book.

No plot. No story. Just verses like,

"wanders about near the spiderwebs and tramples on the sunflowers."

Suitably illistrated, you're looking at some major awards there.

Sounds like a good Indian name.

Misty Jr is the soft spoken poet & the Tamer of the bunnies-



My friend came back from trip to visit her hubby's grandma on her 90th birthday- Not, Having been with her daughter for four days- she was happy when the kids father brought them to her house from daycare- Her oldest (whom is four) looked around and asked repeatedly where I was-

I had a laugh when she called me last night to say her daughter missed me and wanted me to come over as soon as possible- Auntie Noir is the new fav-

I told my friend to tell her little cheerleader to be, I didn't like childern- The kid dosen't believe me- How is it that no matter how much you discipine the little ankle biters, the more they like you-


----------------------------------------------
It's a bad recording-

Kids like predictability, and respect adults who show them that their actions have consequences. Kids hate wishy-washiness.

Finished drawing, laminating, and punching the cards for the treasure hunt.

Have now grated the cucumbers for the tzatziki and made the "other" cake cream.

Thankfully most of the labor intensive stuff is done now - just the bechemel left, but I'll make that just prior to lasagna assembly.

today I have done the latter six hours of my night shift and become to sweaty and olfactoryly (not a word, I know) repellent, that I'm having to face the simple truth that I'm going to bed with wet hair.

phew! that whole 'dead behind the wheel' thing sounded scary. I thought he really passed out.

Thank God! I thought that I was the only one out here who did not understand that post. I was kinda leaning to the thought that Split was in some strange suicide cult/club.
