it's almost as much fun as the internet, this real life thing.

(why I didn't blog earlier : cat sat on keyboard)

...Allegedly.

I have been busy the past day or two. Birthday parties for 2 years olds. (Pictures here). Today we were due to meet a baby girl for the first time, but she was poorly. Get well soon.

Instead I saw Next and Reno 911 at the cinema. Listened to music. After Mum went out to see Bridges Of Terabethia and The Painted Veil, I was home alone. Xander woke up at 8pm, and we hung out together. As the sun went down, he helped me weed in the garden. We stroked Elvis. Elvis, as you may remember has a gammy eye (picture here). The hair was matted together, so me and Xander played animal doctor. We picked up the little rabbit, and I cleaned the fur with wetted toilet paper, before cutting off, with careful cuts of tiny scissors, the matted fur and combed him. Xander looked intently and carefully at the "Abbit" as I did so, and stroked Elvis' ears.

We fed Elvis lettuce. In the garden as the sun went down, I picked out some weeds and weeded. Xander copied my pose and helped pull what he thought also looked likely suspects in the Great Weed War Of 2007. Inside we played "If you're happy and you know it", we blew up balloons, we ate bananas, giggled and wrestled. I made Xander milk and he kissed me good night.

Then I couldn't blog for a while. Someone was sat on the keyboard.
