This is bullshit where is Tico Torres

We woke up this morning and Mr. Jenner found the toilet in the master bath was not working quite right. Then we found a significant lack of water pressure in the kitchen sinks. Oh glorious day. What fun what fun. I was going to wash my hair this morning. Plans have been changed. I am going to have to rock my dirty hair awhile longer. (the dried spit-up adds a touch of glamour)
I called up the Water company and it seems a water main broke. Most unpleasant but at least they are attending to it. Things aren't going well for the water company. Last week another main broke and there was a fair amount of flooding downtown.

I think all I can do today is watch Cary Grant movies and eat biscuits. There will also be several games of peek-a-boo and conversations about how Mummy doesn't want her lips pulled off.

I started reading Bay of Noon by Shirley Hazzard. I love how she writes. Her descriptions are sometimes quite simple but there is such a lush undertone to them that makes it seem more like a painting.

Awww...I want to come over and watch Cary Grant and eat biscuits! I'd even occupy the junior Mr. Jenner whilst you washed your hair. Why do you have to live so damned far away?

The real question is are you having British biscuits (aka cookies) or American biscuits (dripping with jam and butter, all melted a gooey, mixed in with fluffy goodness)?

I saw it on the news this morning. My husband was impressed that Channel 5 could spend so much time talking about it as "breaking news." Then he said it was like living in a small community when a cow gets loose in the streets. Anyway, you had to be there. I lol'd.

Biscuits biscuits biscuits!

That sucks about the water pressure. Laaaaaaame, Henry.
