Today was significant for several reasons. I was beaten fair and square by my nine year old and ten year old at Scrabble. I am completely pants at that game and they were, frankly better at it.

Secondly I discovered that an ex-boyfriend of mine has been made into an action figure. Hilarious. Does one purchase the action figure of an ex-boyfriend? If so do you then put up with the sight of your children playing with said action figure. How disturbing will I find this I wonder? I will refrain from low cheap jokes about working parts and special features.

I now have to go and type L's 500 word essay on 'The Beneifts of Being Quiet when Told to do so' I have to type it for her as she has scrawled 'I hate Mr S' all over the draft. Bless her - secondary school is hard when for the first seven years of your education nobody ever shouted at you.
