Not a post

Wow, it's been a while since I wrote anything here. Contributing factors include:

• laptop death, followed by resurrection with new memory, and a suspected new case requiring 2 trips to Bondi, the second on a Saturday and with 3 kids in tow. *shudder*
• 2 work projects right on top of one another
• friends visiting from Melbourne
• exam
• belly dance performance today (with associated rehearsals and costume organisation)
• desperate desire to finish the 2 scarves I'm knitting
• planning for trip to Melbourne on Tuesday and Tokyo on Thursday

So in lieu of a real post, here are a couple of quotes from my kids.

Elissa: [waving soft toys at the beagle] You can't have these because you don't have hands.

Charlie: Are we mammals?

Me: Yes

Charlie: Are we animals?

Me: Yes

Charlie: Are we the world?

Me: [laughing] No, we're not the world.

Charlie: Are we big piles of poo?

Me: .......

(He's nearly 5, and it's still all about the poo)
