Oh Kevin ...

Only people who have been watching Australia's Parliamentary Question Time today, and say the Prime Minister resume his economic diatribe word-perfect mid-paragraph after a lengthy division to eject two members from the House will understand why I say this now, but I do think that Prime Minister Kevin Rudd might be a cyborg.

We fondly refer to him as the Ruddbot, and he seems to have embraced the role, to a spooky degree! And the Speaker has just welcomed a dignitary from New Zilund! With that pronunciation and all! It's not as fun as the Keating era, but there is still amusement to be found.

Good lord that's a lot of birthdays ...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! To ...

The lovely, thoughtful and terrifically talented bryoneybrynn ! I still remember the first time I 'met' you, when I fell over Certain Dark Things one evening and proceeded to laugh, hold my breath and read like a maniac through the hours. When you started replying to my comments, I knew that you weren't just a good writer, you were a friend, and it has been a delight to know you ever since. You make me remember that my characters will occasionally cry, and that my punctuation skills are of genuine use to some people ;-) Have a lovely one, darling!

Young, bright and delightful sarcasticpixie  is also allegedly ageing a little today, but I cannot believe it, she is the ever-youthful Ella mum, even though there is a new Yingcat on the scene (Usurper!). Susu, I hope that this year is filled with sane workmates, appropriate health, well-behaved angel cats and no frog! I hope for lovely cake and wonderful presents for you!

And to gwenivere73 , I don't know you as well as Bry and Susu, alas, but I hope this day is just as wonderful for you!

Oh, and fromafrozenland ? No double up wishes! :-P
