Hold The Phone

It's interesting to see the twins develop their own phone etiquette over time. If you hand the phone over to Jessica, she's all polite and manners, asks how are you, what are you doing, and then proceeds to tell you about her day in the minutest of details, and then says I love you, and then hands back the phone. Sarah...if you try and hand her the phone, there is a 60% chance that she doesn't want to speak, no matter who it is, especially if her favourite show is on! Of the 40%, it depends on who it is. Luckily, I'm in the 40%! When she speaks to me, it's "Hi daddy, I was cheeky..." or other statements like this, and no conversation on the phone lasts longer than a minute with her! In the future, I'm not sure which of their boyfriends I pity - the one who will be stuck on the phone with Jessica for goodness knows how long, or the one who has a 40% chance of speaking to Sarah and only having a minute to spill his guts about how he feels about her before she hangs up!

Hey, I'm trying to look on the bright side of having teenage daughters here! Let me bask in my delusions while I can...

ODD SPOT: What is one of the most difficult items for sewage works to handle, as it is insoluble, yet fine enough to pass through most filtration systems? (Every month Melbourne Water removes over a ton of this substance from its water treatment plants, whereupon it is taken away to a landfill site and buried). You guessed it - pubic hair.

P.S: Someone should make Afro wigs out of them...what an entrepreneurial opportunity! I reckon you could make millions! There's plenty of raw material...
