*wails with happiness*

Nicci's youngest did me a Christmas present, and it's up there at the top with the best presents ever *blushes*



After this, I'm going to have to do the edits for Convergence and actually DO something with that damned novel...
And she shouldn't despair, those are perfect manga-styled versions of the characters XD

Do my kids rock or what?

Ben bought me Brokeback mountain. A 16 year old boy went into a WH Smith with his buddies to buy a gay movie for his mum of his own free will!!!

You must be so proud!

(*sniffs at memory of Brokeback Mountain*)

Really though, with the way kids are at school and how hard it is to battle that prejudice, it's a rousing testament to the way you've brought him up that he has the self confidence to be able to do that. It's made of awesome.

Go you! And Ben!

He told me the story goes like this..

Ben: Hi, do you have the movie 'The Birdcage'

shopassistant: Oh thats the gay movie right? With Robin Williams?

Ben: (cofs and shuffles feet) Yeah thats the one.

Shopass: Nope don't have that one.

Ben: (looking at list) Okay so do you have 'Precilla Queen of the desert?"

Shopass: Oh thats a great one! I love that one. But no, sorry, we dont stock that.

Ben: (shooting daggers at his snickering friends) Right. Okay. Brokeback Mountain?

Shopass: Ah, now that gay movie we do have!

Ben: Its for my MUM okay!!!?

Shopass: Uh-huh

Hehehehe, others might have given up at the first hurdle.

It is, isn't it? And she caught the mangastyle version of my characters so darned well.

It truly is -- I'm so proud of Nicci's kids. They're so nicely warped *laughs*
