Trivia Night Part II

Deciding to attend the annual Kindergarden Trivia Night is like some nightmare ritualistic ceremonial test for adults.  It is right up there on a list of have-to but don't-want-to.  Like doing a tax return or booking a dentist appointment.  You don't want to, but you know you have to join the normal people and grow up sometime.  The funny thing is the last time I went to a Kindergarten Trivia Night, the adults were acting like teenagers.  Like caged animals who had not been let out for years and finally went on party safari in the wild.

It might be a bit like that.  Or it might be OK.  We have a very busy weekend ahead but all of it revolves around the children.  Football Saturday morning.  Gymnastics Saturday afternoon.  The Accountant taking the boys to watch an AFL match.  Me attending the dreaded Trivia Night.  Sunday morning I am taking part in the school Working Bee.  This is not a comedy script this is really happening!  Followed by taking Jonty to a party in the afternoon.  The bigger boys are going to a scouts show (like the Gang Show only Australian).

And then tonight the boys are going to the school disco!  Not me dancing my pants off, but the 7 and 9 year old.  Unbelievable.  I think there is time on Sunday between 9:10pm - 9:20pm where I will have time to have a cup of tea and read my book right before it falls out of my hand and on to the bed and I drift off to la-la land.
