Is that a dirty book?
… asks Rissa as I pop open my e-reader. “I’m asking, ’cause you mostly have dirty books on there, right?” “Yes, there are mostly dirty books on this e-reader. But this one hasn’t gotten dirty yet.” I’m not a fan of Dickens when I’m winding down with a book. Some good character development, some sex,…
Fun times for an only child
“Hey look at this!” says Rissa. She’s just received her “prize” pack for selling a shit-load of magazines subscriptions for her school fund raiser.

How do snakes have sex?
Asks Rissa. At bedtime. Because she’s crazy. “Mummy, how do snakes actually have sex?” “Pardon?” Gear shift.
