oh i don´t know what´s going on

Got home to a still-screeching N who has just fallen asleep for what I can only assume is a very very very late nap. 30mins gone and oh - oh - hold on - is he- no, false alarm. He´s just so tired and I think that´s why he is so grumpy. poor bubba.

good luck with job hunting octo and dippy, don´t know if I remembered to say that before.

Oh yeah - how awful re. Heath Ledger?? Very very
