Well bugger me. Seems like only, er, a period of time which
could be one or two years, which is pretty scary really.
Maybe it is some weird area effect of children (still just the
one - don't panic), losing tem****al awareness, beyond the
confines of growth, walking, teeth, words, skills[1]...?

I have bought... A THREE PIECE SUITE! (What have I become?) Which
is due tomorrow. Seventh most exciting thing all year. So you
are hereby formally given notice of the requirement of the presence
of your arse and any close arses of your acquaintance at a time
to be mutually arranged but not after if at all possible the end
of the year of her lord two thousand and six.
[1] I heard a strange noise from under the telly last night, a sort
of electronic constipation straining noise. I dashed to the video,
peered inside and espied a syringe upon the extraction of which the
sound.. continued. One level down I spotted an unhappy and noisy DVD
player, which when instructed to open disgorged a DVD *and* a CD
called "Pop Goes the Weasel"... Similar has occurred before, with two
discs in the player but on that occasion they were lined up and it
didn't seem to mind. This time the CD wasn't aligned so the player
couldn't poke its spindle up the Weasel and was loudly protesting such
frigidity.
