It's sort of funny, the easiest part of my job gets me the most thank yous.
I work as a receptionist and am frequently thanked for sounding happy.
Answering the phone is the least troublesome part of my job, and really it is no problem. Ringing my workplace is not an act of oppression. You are welcome.

Bemused
Daily calls from the parent as she finds qualifying for some bridge competion or 'nother traumatic and fraught with drama. The couple she really didn't want to be forced to play with didn't make it through, because of a fine incurred yesterday due to behavioural issues. Unsure if things degenerated to the point where persons were asked to step outside to continue the discussion or not, though that has happened in the past.
Bridge ... its a kill or be killed world, man.

Odd
It is not a good year, so far, for people i know. One dead due to head injuries from a fall down stairs; another just diagnosed with breast cancer, and at the moment i am hoping nieces broken toe counts as something cause everything else seems to be fairly extreme.
Was covering someone elses shift at work Friday. She is an ex-hairdresser and always wears lots of makeup and good hair, so dressed up and did my hair and makeup, to be funny.
Startled at the reaction engendered by both public and workmates.
Can only conclude I must look a bit rough sometimes.
Believe there is speculation that perhaps I now have a boyfriend, lol.

We always hurt the ones we love most
So ... on his last visit to my sister's house my beautiful little three month old kitten broke some plates and cups. This visit he broke my nieces toe (they were playing chasie and she didn't make the corner).
He shall be renamed 'Springbok Bonebreaker, the Destroyer'.

Am making trouble at work.
Have stuck cute itty bitty little fuzzy chickens to the tops of the monitors that just peak over the top of the counter at perfect reach to really tempt and upset small sick children being totted in to the doctors cause they are sick and miserable.
The adults try to distract and engage the small sick child during the booking in process by pointing out the chicken, if not seen already, and than spending the rest of the time stopping the child from trying to take the chicken and dealing with the resulting tantrum.
Not content with this I have added two little nests with foam easter eggs in the attrium by the concrete bunnies.
Mawawawawawahahaha
Delighted to come to work today to find the nests in disarray and foam eggs scattered with little tooth marks in them.
HA!!
Foolled the possums too.

It's a funny ol' world ...
Stoopid computer game 'Paradise Bay' is sucking my life away.
I'm sure I'll be sick to death of it in another few weeks and be able to return to more normal sleep patterns. It is all completely ridiculous.
ANS I CANT SPELL CHICKEN PECKING ON THIS STUPID TABLET!!
If my family hadnt gifted with me it at christmas i would probably have my new laptop and new tv by now. I had my budget allworked out. Argh
Havve i mentioned how beautiful the kitten is today?
If only it wasnt wide awake and crashing about like a hyperactive drunk at two in the morning, sigh. I really much prefer older cats. Who sleep alot.

Breakfast out
it wasn't exactly burnt brioche
just a small slice, slightly singed
the decor was lovely
all dark grey and pressed tin
plate shaped like an abstract tick
young neat elegant swift wait staff with lovely smiles
two wafer thin slices of fried ham
two small poached eggs
some mild hollandaise sauce
unable to compete with the taste of burnt toast
pea shoots
a pot of tea like an large egg
why do they all insist on putting the little milk jug inside the cup?
Breakfast for one in Townsville =$24
I think I am becoming a crotchety old woman I am sure I remember buying eggs benedict and a coffee for only $12.50 in other towns not all that many years ago.
