Oh no, not him again!
In spite of popular demand, I've returned to blogging. Seriously I was getting hundreds of emails a day begging me to post about something, anything........would you believe 10's of emails a month........how about an SMS and and a wrong number on my mobile. Nevertheless I'm back and well rested, kinda. I've actually been pretty busy with work, practicing and designing new magic effects, training and avoiding all the nappie changes that I can.
I did take a week off from work to have some family time, but it was during the school holidays, so when we went to places like the Aquarium or the Zoo, the place was swarming with other peoples hatchlings, prams, and worst of all, other people themselves. I'll write about our Aquarium visit in another post, cause it was that much fun, and I don't want to cram all my banal anecdotes into my first piece.
Suprisingly, even though I'm doing more work (extra shifts due to others holidays), our workdays have really quietened down recently. Partly cause the rubes are becoming a little more use to the system and also because we have written some scripts and programs to make our job easier. I had a very nice pay packet this month in part for my butt busting ( to get money to prepare for the next child and some big bills) , but also I received extra pay for some of the public holidays I will have to work (the bane of shift work). So all is ok on the financial front...for a little while at least. We ain't rich, but as I get paid monthly it's good not to be too worried about whether we'll be struggling just before the next pay day.
The wife is big as a house and still has a couple of months to go. She's completely over it and mostly we have to sleep in separate beds cause she has to get up numerous times during the night and that kinda makes sleeping hard for me. We find ourselves apologising a lot to each other these days. Her, because of hormonal outbursts and me because she doesn't get my damn dinner on the table in time........kidding! I just get frustrated and feel helpless sometimes, not that I would ever want to be pregnant.
It's good to be back. Anyone thinking about a blog rest, I can recommend it!

WOO I WIN! I AM THE FIRST TO COMMENT! YOU SUCKAS!
Anyways, I am so happy you updated! That means I don't have to update as often, to please the masses.
So what size is up from house? Fire house, apartment building, small skyscrapper?
Make sure you rub the belly a lot, and the wifey's occassionally.
Congrats on your win, unfortunetly there is no prize.
I was more thinking, small dog house size.
My belly is not what I tend to rub.
About time you lazy sod! ;)
Be nice to the wife, she's cooking you a baby you know!
Steph, cooking a baby?? What kind of sicko do you think my wife is? We prefer our babies marinated in a white wine sauce.
You should have stayed retired Javatari. I was almost beginning to remember you fondly. Now I will be reminded of your lameness on a sporadic basis.
luckyluke, why don't you go back to your private myspace account and hide in your fortress of solitude.
BTW with comments like that, you're this close to losing my website account! ;-)
