Perhaps Jeremy and your family can enjoy a symbiotic relationship. Like Spanish Moss in an oak tree.

It should have been in your wedding vows somewhere (did you even make any?) that one of you is the designated bug/snake/lizard killer. Perhaps Boudica can fulfill that role.

My wife wrote the vows. In retrospect, it may have been a mistake to let her, because her vows seemed brief and to the point, whereas mine seemed lengthier, more detailed and comprehensive. I don't remember what I promised, so at least i have deniability on my side.

Ive now written a few times about snakes, and reptiles and at least one spider, in earlier newsletters, and I was thinking - am I overdoing this topic? Then I realized: no - you've forgotten you've moved back to Australia; these experiences are part of the package deal. Sadly.

Jeremy is obviously an alien, how could you miss that connection? He must be confounding your brain waves telepathically for you not to realize that. He took a week off to report back to lizard central on all the goings on at your domicile, and they sent him back to observe you further, as, like Byron said, “There really is a lot going on at your house, isn’t there?”

Likely, Byron himself was abducted by aliens some time ago and he sold you out, directing them towards you to gain some mysterious benefit, or get them off his case, or just because he thought it would be funny. This plot goes very deep and involves many "people", possibly even Obama, so you're definitely not going to want to upset Jeremy or let on in any way that you're now clued in to his true nature. Stay out of the kitchen!! Do not approach the skink!!

Jeremy might possibly be an alien, but ... you know, after the recent revelations of the Trump-Epstein files, I'm not entirely sure the lizard people are the worst of the problem. Remember a year or so ago, a woman freaked out on a plane because, 'yeah, that guy back there is not real!'? (Google it!). In this Era, a lot of us went, 'Yeah, that happened to me one time'. Also, it turns out there are actual Eyes Wide Shut parties going on, with billionaires in attendance, and they're doing weird satanic rituals, and so my point is, I don't actually want to annoy any lizards in case they're well-connected. That said, I don't think lizard people could be as diabolical as the people in those files.

I'm so happy Jeremy is okay!!! Maybe not so happy that he's still in your kitchen, since it causes you distress, but still. . . Hopefully, he won't grow enormous before he decamps. Or maybe the aliens will take him! Take care of yourself. I hope your shoulder gets better soon. It might be a good idea to not bump into walls in the middle of the night, but then again, given what goes on in your house, it may be unavoidable!

Thanks Kris, I just came from the ultrasound-assisted cortisone injection. A nastier experience than I anticipated, even though I knew it would be an injection into a shoulder socket. I am, again, such an optimistic person. Horrors do creep up on me. What was nice was, the procedure cost me nothing. I lived in the US for, like 15+ years, so I still find that a novelty. (I still intend to move back to the US in a few years - you know, if or when its relatively safe to do so.)

Glad to hear you got a shot. I hope it helps. Cortisone injections can be very helpful. And free!!!! Hooray.

Coming back here might be good, if we still have any form of democracy in a few years. Fingers crossed.
