These Arms of Mine


My parents have a mysterious and persistent disease in which they cannot stay in the room once the kettle has been put on. I am drinking a blueberry flavoured Growers which is actually as bad as it sounds. Surprise! It's also lavender coloured, which is definitely disconcerting. My parents are going to a disco party tonight. More than a little jealous. But at the same time relieved that I am not being prodded into going.
It actually rained today. Like full on, drown the flower-beds rain. It better not be one of Those Augusts.
Tomorrow is day 3 of 10 days straight work.
