You don’t see many street urchins these days. The time of the professional urchin has long since gone. A society with a large urchin population is probably not one that’s thriving. Those are the ones that don’t care for the less fortunate. Jo is probably too old to get into the urchin game anyway. Once you leave your teens it becomes a lot harder to successfully urch.

Thanks for the well wishes for my birthday. It wasn’t one of the better ones, if I’m honest, but we’re reaching the end of the line as far as birthdays go, so I should probably be glad I had one at all.

Currently my cake is hidden in the microwave because if you don’t hide food grandpa will get up when he thinks you aren’t looking and eat as much as he can before he gets caught. I’m not sure what eating an entire cake would cause, but I’m certain I don’t want to be the one who cleans it up. The cleanup for regular disasters is bad enough & I’m gonna run out of bleach.

If you feel like contributing to the fund for more bleach please feel free, nay encouraged, to support me via the links above.
