Overcame my arachnopacifist tendencies to kill a redback today, as I weeded in its vicinity. Only trust the gardening gloves so far. #
As I make breakfast I can hear Tilda and Brad playing on Club Penguin. Technology is amazing. #

		<title>Best day at the beach ever</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today, on the placid, shallow bay beaches of the Mornington Peninsula &#8230;

&#8230; there were WAVES.

(And friends.)

Fortunately Tilda had in reserve a complete surfer vocabulary, featuring phrases such as &#8220;This is awesome!&#8221; and &#8220;Now that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m talking about!&#8221;

		<description><![CDATA[I had a hard time deciding what to get (make!) Sanjot for her birthday, until I remembered these tea towels.  Sanjot has a thousand tea towels, which must mean that she likes tea towels, so definitely she needed 7 embroidered day-of-the-week tea towels.

On Monday I went to IKEA to get the towels (linen, of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trains, trams, and a museum</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday was our visitors&#8217; last day in Melbourne, and they still hadn&#8217;t done anything specifically Melburnian.  Particularly as there were boys involved, our outing had to involve trains and trams, which they don&#8217;t see much of in Canberra.

We took the train into the City, heading for the Melbourne Museum.  As soon as we [...]]]></description>
