Hee. My shift has officially ended, and FiL just came out to shoo me off to bed. I told him I was waiting for the dishwasher to finish so I could unpack it. Next I see, he and MiL are bodily carrying Ryan's bassinette into their room. This has become a somewhat unpredictable household.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If I had the powers of a platypus for today's brunch. I could lay the eggs and poison them if I wanted. Not that I want to poison my in-laws. It'd just be cool to be a walking poison omelette maker.
Plus, you could garner fearful respect by informing them that, should you choose, you *could* poison their eggs, but because of your magnificent beneficence, you didn't.

Ooh, this is cool. The Australian govt is delivering the 2009 budget this week, and apparently it's going to include 18 weeks' paid parental leave at the minimum wage for all primary carers earning under $150,000 p.a. [link]

You'll need an accomplice, a Harley Quinn platypus to your Joker platypus.
Okay, that could work. Tep, you want to be my partner in platypus crime?

Civilized! Soon gay people will be able to get married and peace will guide the planets.

I've always wanted to be a partner in crime to a mammal that lays eggs! I can finally live the dream!

Who was the blonde mother? I wish they'd gotten someone completely off the wall, like Meryl Streep. (Who might well not have wanted to do it, she's all dignified and shit, but I can dream!)
I'm guessing you haven't seen her in Mama Mia!. If she had any aversion to appearing undignified, that movie cured her of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Did I mention before how I'm jealous of Sara's new home and community? Sounds so nice!! (I just learned that apparently It of VH1 reality show "fame" is from my neighborhood.....)

I have been to the laundromat, came back for a quick lunch of strawberry shortcake and am not off again to purchase bras (because the only one put through the washers is currently trying to kill me) and garden clippers. Among other things.
It is GORGEOUS outside.
