NOT the coffee date you want to be sitting next to while trying to enjoy a crossword.
I’d much rather someone who ISN’T perched watching, waiting, and licking their lips at the thought of my blood…
Sometimes, when one person is missing, the whole world seems depopulated.

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.
All in a day with my four year old brother
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.
A hero is made in the moment, not from dwelling in the memories of the past or fearing the future.

Maybe I need you
Here in this world on fire
Everything moving
Everyone always tired
Thinking of futures
Everything falls away
Everything changes
Nothing has changed today
Maybe I need you.
