Friday, October, 30

It's time to dress up in costumes and go outside and get sopping wet and freezing.

Halloween on the West Coast. Bloody hell.

My big costume today (for the smirking benefit of my colleagues) is Swine Flu. I'm wearing a pig snout and a mask. Why? Because I am lazy and have poor taste.

Besides, I can't really pull the Pregnant Nun thing where I work, so I had to choose something else.

I've not written much lately because Husband has been in Autralia FOR A MONTH and I've been functioning with half a tank of normal. Husband's absence means I'm in charge of EVERYTHING and I'm not particularly cool with that. There were a few nights when I let the Little Girl brush her own teeth. Bad idea. There have been a few days when I've not got the energy to take Dog for his evening stroll. He retaliated by eating a slipper yesterday. Sometimes I wish my dog was dumber. He has made the connection between 'not enough walks' and 'household destruction'. Ah, but will he made the connection between "household destruction" and NO FREAKING FOOD!?

Aye, there's the rub. Or none at all from me, actually.

Oh, and the barking frenzy at 5am this morning? Help....me....not.....kill....him....
