Fly By!

Last night in the bathroom, a fly so big that you could put a saddle on, came in and whizzed about, taunting us with its wings buzzing so loudly, I thought there was a Cessina prop plane in the room with us!!! And by us, I mean the whole family! Yep, the family that bathrooms together, stays together!!! Anyway, Jessica was sitting on the toilet when this buzzing monster started to hover above her. Well, you should've heard her scream and shout! Lill quickly got the fly spray...and handed it to me! I'd just finished shaving, and I didn't have my glasses handy, so I used The Force and guestimated where the fly was, by its buzzing and this large blur whizzing by my peripheral vision! Lill and the girls said I actually got it, which I was chuffed about, and then we exited the bathroom for the night to let that giant thingie go through its death throes in relative peace and quiet.

So this morning, while I'm at work, Lill tells me that both girls got up and needed to use the bathroom together. So Sarah wanted to use the toilet first, and so she suggested to Jessica to use the potty. Well, just as Jessica is about to use it, guess what's sitting at the bottom of that potty with its hairy legs pointing in the air!!?? Yep, Mr. Giant Dead Fly! And again, you should've heard Jessica scream and shout! Even in death, this thing taunts her!! And Sarah, like the little mum she is, says camly and soothingly, "That's alright, Jessica. You use my toilet now."

And to think, the next three weeks these two will be my constant companions!!! Pity the blog ends tomorrow. Ah well, there's always the next blog I'm setting up [sounds of my wife screaming in Maltese Falcon style, "WHAT!!??"]

ODD SPOT: "Cemetery" comes from a Greek word meaning, "Sleeping Place"

P.S: This smacks of being shades of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding"...
