I was having such a lovely day...

...and then Tadpole barfed on me.

Goodness. Why do these things always happen to me? Wait, don't bother answering. "Because you don't bring a change of clothes", is the right answer. It never happens when you bring a change of clothes, have you noticed? Only when you don't.

At the ROM (Royal Ontario Museum), Tadpole marveled in front of the skeletons put side-by-side for the public to compare: a Himalayian bear, and an adult human being. "This is me, and this is you", she said, pointing, and was off.

Guess who was the bear?

Not that my teeth are truly that sharp, or my skull that small, or my arms that long, or my knees that bent (yes, it is an ugly animal altogether), I think what caught her attention was the wide chest. Aha, so this is how you get boobs, she must have thought. At least I hope. Oh, do I hope.

The tourists around were very amused. And I? Was crushed.

You know she was probably just doing the size thing, like I did on the postcard I sent you lot -- you're the Bigger and she's the Littler. That was my first thought when I read that bit of the entry, anyway :)

That was what I though too, at first.

but then she reconsidered and pointed again, ça c'est papa, et ça c'est maman. Husband got to be the human. and I was still the bloody bear *weeps*

I didn't dare add that to my first post, in case someone thinks I'm completely deformed. *sobs*
