My Own Private Australia

C: Mom, do they have bad days in Australia?
E: What do you mean by bad days? Does it rain there? I'm sure it does.
C: No. Bad days. Do they have bad days in Australia?
E: Honey, I don't know what you mean by bad days. Could you explain?
C: Well. Do they have days when you get up and you feel bad? You think your friends don't like you and you can't think of anything fun to do?
E: Oh. Yeah. I'm pretty sure they have bad days in Australia.
C: (sigh)
E: Were you thinking of moving to Australia?
C: Yeah. I want to move to there.
E: I was thinking of moving there too.
C: Why? Are you having a bad day?
