She: What would it be like if we were still boyfriend and girlfriend?
He: You couldn't get pregnant.
She: Would we still be together?
He: Nah, you'd be bored.
She: So you'd leave me?
He: No, it's my house.
Swift kick follows.
My missus has known me long enough to understand that she'll never get a decent conversation when I'm ready to sleep.

Understand, Like?
On the bus yesterday I overheard a girl talking on her mobile phone. I think that everybody did. Not that she was phased mind. One particular part of the conversation was intriguing.
"I don't want to be, like. I don't want to be, like. I don't want to be, like. You know?"
No, I don't but I get the feeling that you already are.
Making a phone call at work today I was placed on hold. They had the radio for their on hold music and, I swear, the words of the song, from Fallout Boy, were, "I don't call what you think....". Hmmm, and I the person I was calling didn't take my call either. Was there a subliminal message there?

So Much Time And So Little To Say
The weekend before last Yu-Jin stayed over at his friend's house. Well, he nearly didn't because we'd organised it the week before and then forgotten about it. His friend's mum rang to see if we were still coming. Hastily readied some tea for him as we were preparing to go out for a meal.
Dropped him off and went to Senoji Restaurant in Vic Park. I think Senoji translates to "Wait a moment" or "Please wait" as that's all the waitstaff said to us that night. Along with "Thanks for your patience". We sat there, the two of us, and found it so hard to talk about anything. Normally junior is there with heaps to say and you are fighting to get a word in edgeways. This time there was no incentive.
Our food took over 30 minutes to come out (that review I read where they indicated that service was a bit slow was correct) but we weren't worried by that. In the end we found plenty to talk about, as a married couple should, but it was a strange feeling for a while. Just needed that little something to push us.
