Despite the fact I had to clean up sick in the girls bathroom (although the culprit was actually a boy), cleaning was actually quite enjoyable today, possible due to the fact that Bex's dream about her going out with James Corden and Barry sleeping under a mattress gave me great material to write the fairy tale that I entertained myself writing in my head: The Princess and the PeaOnce upon a time, in a land far away (Australia), there lived (until June) a beau...
