Why haven't I written in here for a while? What have I been doing? I am embarrassed to say that I have been doing nothing. NOTHING. Pitiful, yeah?

During the Christmas break, I have been reduced to attending horrific family reunions and forced to mingle with the people who claim to be related to me. I'm usually superb at putting up a good face in social affairs, but when a cluster of big hairy middle aged men and women who carry chickens for pets come up to you and claim to be your distant cousins THEN demand that you clog dance with them, one tends to shy away from any chance to socialize.

Its a new year, already? I haven't really noticed. Happy New year, everyone. What have you all been up to? I've been away from people for so long, I believe. Don't get me wrong, I love my sister's company- I just think a change of atmosphere would be lovely. I'd want to do something nice once we get back to school. I think I have fairly good marks in Charms and Transfiguartion. Would anyone need a tutor of sorts? I'd be more than willing to offer my valuable services.

Again, as you all already know, I suck at advertising myself. Now, lets move on.

Nice. But trust me, it feels good to have a little sibling. Girl or boy, by the way?

She does. And good Merlin, you've just taken things to an entirely new level and shoved me in a very DARK place. Nice going. I might not be able to sleep tonight...

Since you've just eliminated any chance of me getting a good night's rest, I am, actually. Where would you want to meet up? Diagon?

	Boy, Aaron. He's loud and spits a lot, usually over me. It's fantastic. Not really. Sorry about that mate. I'll make it up to you. Sure, Florean Fortescue's? I'll buy you one as a sorry and a thanks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Then... spit... on Aaron? Ok, no. That wasn't very good advice from a fellow big brother. Don't spit on him. Just ask him to aim somewhere else? or you can carry a bucket with you at all times. I'm not the best at the advice department, it seems. Oh, I'm expecting you to. You just read my mind. Sounds perfect! I'll meet you there at what time? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh I wish I could, I did almost drop him though, which was not good. Actually I usually just go shirtless when I hold him. Easier to get it of off skin than clothing. Say five or so? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Drop him? Oh, be careful. That's not good at all. ~~... interesting.~~ I see. ~~Away with you, hot mental images!~~ I agree. Those baby stains can be such a bitch. Sounds good. I'll see you then, I suppose. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I was trying to avoid Mum and her steaming platters of food and then I tripped over one of the toys and it was not good. I ended up on the floor, bruised bum, crying baby(Or is he a toddler now? Dunno oh well) and wounded ego. It was not pleasant.

They are a bit. So usually I just clean off my shoulder and throw a shirt back on. And then of course nine times out of then I'm in the line of vomit and so have to remove said shirt again. It's an experience alright.

See you too.

It doesn't sound pleasant at all. At least he's alright?
And bruised bum? You poor thing. Someone should massage that to make it better...

Indeed. Your mother must be going nuts with the laundry load she has right now. All those soiled shirts. I sympathize, really. I'll teach you a Charm that might help. Water repelling charms might help with that predicament... I'm sure it will help with the drool. For the vomit... I'm not so sure. It depends on the... consistency I suppose?

This is an awfully odd topic.

	He's alright yeah. It does hurt a bit still. Actually I have to do my own, which is what makes it worse. Those charms would be helpful. And he's started to eat solid food so it's a bit..chunkier than usual. Could be worse I suppose. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh, that's good. Yes, someone should definitely massage that cute bum of yours.

Really? I feel for you. And yes, I think it would be very useful. I'll definitely put it at the top of my list of Charms to teach you. Oh Sweet Merlin, chunkier? I think that bucket I said before is in order...

Yes. I could elaborate on my cousins again, but because I just ate, I'd rather not.

That sounds like a plan to me. But as we need to study I don't think it'll be in the books tonight.

Well I suppose it is for good when I finally get kicked out of the house. Thanks mate, it's much appreciated. It has gotten a bit interesting around the house, but he's supposed to stop soon and I won't see him till summer hols so he'll almost be a year then so it's all good.

I don't think I want to know anymore thanks.

Well, you have to admit, it was a very good suggestion at least? Sore bums are a huge inconvenience.

You're welcome. Interesting you say? Well, keep your fingers crossed that he'll stop by then. My little sister was a bit of a drooler herself when she was younger and it lasted passed her first year. I remember she even had one of those hard plastic bibs with a big scoop in the front for... yes, you guessed it, the saliva. For my little sister, the cloth variety for bibs are NOT enough. How about suggesting that to your mother?

You shouldn't want to.

	It was a good suggestion. They really are. That sounds...lovely? I guess you could say if you were nice. I'll give him a fair chance and then I'll suggest that to her. (Reply to this)(Parent)
