Two muses.

Why does everything work when it's not supposed to?

I have a sweet little house, which I bought from a little old lady who only drove it to church on Sundays. It has an electric stove, an oil heater and an off-peak hot water system.

They all work as well as they are supposed to.

So I want to get gas. The company has installed the pipes down our street. There's a wonderful little scheme where you can get the gas connected and a year's free supply and an interest-free loan for that year and I could get a gas stove and gas central heating and gas hot water and all of it.

And I can't see the point in committing that much money when all three are still working perfectly well.

It has been pointed out to me the slight strangeness of posting about my son and having a picture of the dog instead.

Just for that...



If it doesn't load, then Geocities is being temperamental, and you might do better going to this old homepage and following the link to Adam.

Love my boy.

Love my man.

Perils of Homewares and the The Evils of Cute

[sandypawozbun.livejournal.com]

I've found a simple, yet effective solution to not being able to avail myself of great offers. If something needs to be broken in order for you to feel ok about replacing it, -break it-. Alternatively donate. Offhand I'm aware of around 3 people (ok they're a bit far from you) who need heaters or stoves.

I sometimes wonder what your son will do when he grows up. Then I shudder and thank Frith that there's such an age gap between us that I'll probably be a doddering old tart by the time he finally manages to take over the world... It makes sense, no? He's incredibly cute (read evil), he's incredibly intelligent (read evil) and his home life revolves around a Fourier (read REALLY evil), a cocker spaniel (read evil) and a doting, sweet, intelligent, evil mother (read worrying).

Just don't tell the kid what I said, 'K? I don't want to be singled out for special. Treatment. =:)
