Because you're a friend (and I only make this offer to friends,) I'm going to let you in on an investment concept that I make to my friends who play the weekly lotteries....

I will GUARANTEE (guarantee!! ) you a 50% return on your investment! Yes... you heard me correctly. I will guarantee you a 50% return on your investment.

Now... most folks who play the lottery or invest in stocks lose a lot more than they win, right. Buy a $1 lottery ticket every week, and MAYBE win back a $2 prize every 4-6 months. It happens, right. Sure. But what are the odds? 1 chance in several thousand? How many 100's of dollars worth of tickets do you have to buy to win back two dollars?

But... and here's the guarantee part... If you invest that $1 with "Stitchawl Payouts," I will guarantee to pay you 50% back! Translated into your £1800 tax rebate, this means I will guarantee to give you back £900!!! Can you imagine?!? 50% Guaranteed! And unlike some insurance companies who cancel you out if you collect, "Stitchawl Payouts" will never refuse your investments. I will continue to pay you 50% every time you invest, no matter how much or how often.

You don't have to thank me now. Wait for your first check.


Stitchawl

You see Stitchaw, YOUR company only makes 50% profits.

Now, if you invest in Little-Corporation-Friendly, we can guarantee 70% company profit!*


*
Spoiler:
Which basically means, the investors get 30% back.
Sign here please.
With blood.

I just woke up. The last two days straight I have had disturbing dreams. Not about the same subjects, but neither were pleasant. What the heck? My dreams are usually enjoyable. If this keeps up, I'm going to have to start burning myself with cigarettes to keep awake like those kids in the Nightmare on Elm Street movies.

Must be something in the air. I've have not-quite-nightmares for the last 3 nights myself, and also completely different themes. Very unusual for me, and very uncomfortable.

Maybe the Martians are getting tired of us littering their planet. It is strange, though, and the dreams are very disturbing. Like you said, not quite nightmares.

I need to go flying. I haven't done that in years. Just flap my arms and soar.

Oh, wow, so very, very strange. I have had the same problem for 3 nights and when I told my friend and my mother... THEY both have experienced the same.

We thought it must be the smoke in the air from the fires, but after you both said the same..

I've just packed for a weekend of looking after Luca. Lexie is now staring at my back being very angry. And she will get angrier when, in half an hour or so, I take her out of my room and close the catflap.

I'm watching The Red Shoes on Netflix and irregularly checking the internet. The dancing is stunning.

Taking it easy, just went to the pizzeria and it was so hot in there (sun on the window and the ovens) that I nearly fainted.

I'm usually doing the breast-stroke in air, when I fly. Occasionally it'll be the back stroke, but usually the breast stroke.

Watching Eureka, eating goldfish crackers, and drinking Pu-erh while the baby naps. In his crib. This is strange for him, normally during the day he only naps on me. As soon as put him down he wakes up and wants to cuddle. He falls asleep again, I put him in his crib, h e wakes up, he falls asleep and I let him sleep on me until he wakes up hungry.

I am enjoying a free hour or two right now.
