Apr. 21st, 2006 11:45 amDear Birds,
Please stop trying to knock yourselves out against my windows. It startles me, and you may even injure your brain. Yes, Husband did leave some yummy bird food behind for you, but it's IN THE BACKYARD, i.e. in the opposite direction, 'k?
No love,
rainette
Dear rainette,
What brain? Where food?
The Birds
And now for the maths problem of the day: Given that two children have to attend four combined birthday parties in the next two days, and given that only one car and one and a half parent (don't ask how I get to that result) will be available to take them, how do we manage to get the children to attend their respective birthday parties without going completely nuts?
*sighs* See answer below.
I just came home carrying half the local toystore in a Great Big Platic Bag of Doom, and the lady at the toystore kindly invited me to their next Warehouse Sale (no comment). I am very pleased to note, however, that I exceeded the budget I had fixed myself for all the various birthday presents by only 21 cents (go me).
Answer: We don't. Oh, we'll manage to get them there: thankfully we have other friends whose children are invited to the same parties, so we're going to combine forces and make sure everyone arrives/is picked up when necessary. However. Our sanity is hopelessly lost. Especially when you add into the mix a few other social obligations that just randomly surfaced in the course of the past few days, and all take place this very weekend. Never again will I complain that I have no life.
