white and yellow

So far tonight my lovely, but somewhat insane housemate Em has sniffed soap in a paper bag, laughed herself silly at ‘face palms’, blushed at talk of ‘urges’ and gotten confused by ‘friction’. 

But for me the most memorable line of the night came during a discussion re: Chinese Medicine where she popped out with this little beauty…

“Tiger balm. Tiger balm…is that made from real tiger??”

I love my housemate. She makes our house so much more entertaining. 

I just finished watching The Last Song. Now, honestly, I despise disney and all things related to it…but this movie I loved. I’m an absolute sucker for romantic comedies. I laughed, I cried, I smiled without realizing it, and now I’m listening to sad, yet happy indie…all the guilty signs. It might have something to do with it being 3 in the morning and cold enough to be wrapped up and in the mood…but somehow I don’t think so. I genuinely really enjoyed it. 

Shhhhhh.

Don’t tell anyone. 

People will think I’m going mushy. 

1. My FOUR year old brother can play a video on youtube.

2. My FOUR year old brother saw me come out of the shower in a towel and went ‘Ewww Charlotte put some clothes on!”

3. My FOUR year old brother is sitting next to Mum helping her play spider solitaire.

4. My FOUR year old brother can unlock my iPhone, find his favorite game, open it, navigate it and start playing it all by himself.

5. My FOUR year old brother heard me say I was hot, so he went and opened all the doors and windows and turned on the fans.

6. My FOUR year old brother poured his own cup of milk today

7. My FOUR year old brother built a jengo tower perfectly and then asked all of us to play with him

8. My FOUR year old brother knows how to pass the buck.

Mum: “Someone’s feet smell. I think it’s yours, Joel.”

Joel: “No! It’s Charlotte!”

9. My FOUR year old brother can logic his way out of a situation

Mum: “I want you to go upstairs and put your socks in the washing basket.”

Joel: “But I don’t have any more clean socks and I will need them when we go get Lauren.”

Mum: “But they’re dirty.”

Joel: “But I’m a boy! And I will put them in the wash as soon as we get back. I don’t like dirty socks too, Mum, but I have no other socks so I have to wear them. And you need to do washing. Yes you do, Mum.”

10. My FOUR year old brother gave me a lecture today about biting people. He says it’s not a nice thing to do and people don’t like it. You see, it hurts if you do it with teeth, but if you bit them with your lips, then it’s ok because it’s fun and doesn’t hurt them. Like this…

My FOUR year old brother is awesome. 

I don’t know what it’s made of. I am not mobile so I can’t get another one. And I need it. 

You know that cloth Apple gives you to clean your computer screen with? Or the even smaller one they give you to clean your iPhone  screen with? I’ve lost both. BOTH! My computer screen is dirty which is annoying, my trackpad is a little greasy as is my keyboard and the screen of my iPod is in desperate need of cleaning, too. I want my cloth and I have looked everywhere, but it is nowhere to be found. I can’t find it in either of the draws I normally put it, I can’t find it in the case I keep my computer in, I can’t find it in the last bag I last put my computer in and I can’t find it among my books!!

This is driving me up the wall!!!
