When were you going to tell me???????

Well, I figured Sebbie and I would drop by with a fruit basket and we could sit down and you could help us pick out flowers. Something that says “I love this man and I like seeing entrails outside of people’s bodies.”

What will you be doing for Christmas?

Sitting at dinner at my mum's dining room table in Dublin and calculating how drunk I can safely get to not laugh too loudly when Sebastian opens his gift from her.

It draws closer

Oh God...my Mum just called to remind me that my birthday's on Wednesday in case I'd forgotten and to let me know that I should watch the post at the XXXXXXXX flat. Because she hopes she mailed the package in time to arrive on the date.

I can only wonder what's in that package.

One year, it was a gorgeous silk tie and watch that had belonged to my father.

One year, it was an Irish lace iPod cover.

One year, it was a travel case of poisons.

One year, it was a white suit with lavender lining and a note that I should 'wear it when it seemed Mr Moran was about to propose.'

Can you even imagine my trepidation this year?

It was your father’s choice, chookie. It had family tradition behind it.

But three of us?

You could have had some input, mum.

she does make a rather good roast.

Served up with wedding planning brochures. Ugh.

Any pleasant childhood memories?

Oh, lots! There was the time I finally figured out which muscles in a frog to snip to make it flip itself over every time it tried to jump away.

Or when I got my first Walkman for Christmas.

My mum making me Batman biscuits (decorated and all) after a bad schoolday.

The day I successfully made my own botulinum in the refrigerator without Mum's help.

Were are you two registered for the wedding presents? I found the perfect present for you two. Don't disappoint your mother.

Please stop giving her ammunition. There is no wedding. My mother married my father. She's used to disappointment. X JM
