I'm fucking knackered. My feet don't seem to have touched the ground during the last few weeks. We took Eve to my cousin's daughter's birthday party, where she was one of eight little girls - Debs informed me at said event that she was perfectly happy to help prepare Eve's birthday party, but that once people start to arrive, she's going to her

I don't blame Debs. I'd hide too. The schoolagers were on spring break this week so they were at the child care. It's rarely the boys that fight. It's always the girls that get into screaming matches.

Will your family adopt me? That sounds like a blast. The most fun my family has is when we play that card game Apples to Apples. It doesn't surprise in the least that you're the murderer. I would've guessed you right away.

Well, at least I have the good sense to invite fewer of the little harridans than my cousin did!

Aw, sure they will, my family's very welcoming! A lot of it is because of my Uncle Steve; you should have seen the Christmas quiz he put together for their Boxing Day party. Six rounds on all sorts of obscure shit, in some cases including singing. It took hours. When my brothers and I were kids, he used to make amazing treasure hunts for us. You remember those little machines you used to get outside shops that dispensed bubblegum or little plastic balls with toys in them? Well, Uncle Steve was friendly with the guy who owned the shop across the road, and one time he got him to put one of the treasure hunt clues into one of the little plastic balls. It took forever to get the right ball out of the machine!
