*panic at the disco*

you know it's been a successful school disco when the 18 year old dj shows the kids how to do press-ups to simulate sex during the disco classic "sex on the beach" Yell

i couldn't get there quick enough, i practically vaulted the table as it was.  

dont think he'll be back though, after a friendly word in his ear... 

 

lazybones

what a productive day.

i awoke at 6am, went to the loo then went back to sleep.

i awoke at 9, made some toast and then went back to sleep.

i awoke at 2, messed about online for half an hour, then went back to sleep.

i awoke at 6, got ready and went out.

i plan a similar day tomorrow :D
 

he's here!

oh my goodness *swoon*

 

 

rant

so, if i am annoyed, i have to say something, i have to let off steam or it starts coming out of my ears.

surely it's better to get in touch with whomever is annoying you and telling them directly that what they are doing is upsetting?

*sigh*

i'm beginning to wonder if there is room for me anywhere, i'm being pushed out and rejected in several areas of my life right now and more than annoying, it's beginning to upset me.  

there really is a lot to say for doing a runner and starting completely afresh somewhere new with new friends and a new job.

 

money, money, money

poorly car - £240 for a new part plus labour

poorly cat - £160 for xrays, then tooth treatment and day care

poorly marriage - £366 solicitor's bill for next stage of divorce

 

poorly bank balance =(

 

have you got yours?

default

it's red nose day!!!!!!!!1111one 

 

insight

i had an after school course today that provided me with quite a lot of insight into certain behaviours displayed by the children.

what i found even more fascinating, was that some of the slides shown described me perfectly!

more than helping me with the kids, it's given me something to think about in terms of accepting who i am and why i do what i do.

amazing.

 

[edit] ooh, and big thanks to everyone for your birthday wishes over the weekend. it was an amazing weekend.

*whispers* thanks for reminding me, flighty *hug*

 

*woot*

tis my birthday

*does funky dance*

i've had the bestest weekend.  my sisters and cousin have kept me very well occupied and entertained and i've had a wild time.

there really isn't anything we haven't discussed and yes, most of it was quite, quite rude Embarassed

had a great night out tonight with 16 of us for cinema and meal.  great to see so many of my friends in the same place.

hilight of the evening was when every one sang the happy birthday add-on song that we sing at school "how old are you now?" and then clapped 34 times.  they must have clapped too many times though because it went on forever Wink

love to my sisters and cousin who are on their way home now and i'm back to being just me rattling around the house.  it's quite nice though, to have a bit of peace and quiet.

love also to mcjj for coming along tonight and for being one day older than me *hugs* 

 

*gulp*

i got a card from my ex-mother-in-law today (for my birthday on sunday).

in it was a cheque for £500 to pay towards my ticket to australia next year.

it was from rob's nan who died two years ago, his mom has just sold her flat and has honoured nanny's wishes to share some of the money with me.

i'm stunned. so unexpected. sent me on a bit of a wobbler.
 

hot fuzz

scores eleventy out of ten for a hilariously funny movie.

thing is, it *only* works because of simon pegg.  

anyone else and it just wouldn't have been funny. 

go see it.

 

now.

what a shitty shitty day

phoned my neice betty to wish her a happy 10th birthday and she told me she was worried because her mom was crying. she put her mom (my sis) on the phone and she told me that she was in massive amounts of pain and couldn't move from the waist down. scary rhubarb.

of course, being 350 miles away isn't the most helpful place to be in a family emergency so all i could do was make phonecalls and make sure the doctor got out to see her. i was at work so in between every lesson, i was on the phone, finding out what i could.

the last call confirmed that sis still can't move, got an ambulance to hospital and is being treated for sciatica. quite scary for a 30 year old with 3 children.

i'm so worried.

add to that a draining parent's evening that totalled up my day to 14 hours at work.

and if the boss asks, i didn't tell that dad he was ugly because he told me i looked tired. i was provoked. my hair was in my eyes. my dog did it. my ears weren't working....
 

*sleep*

well, 12 hours of sleep did me the world of good because although i woke up feeling snotty and more than a little groggy, it soon cleared and i felt all springy and bounthy!

i had a four hour lunch with a friend, chatting about anything and everything and having a brilliant time. when we left the restaurant, we saw the most amazingly opulent rainbow either of us had ever seen!

nature is something that rocks my world, it really is awesome. as i sat watching the rainbow, i realised that the sun had come out and that it was a beautiful day, which pleased me even more. i came home and hung the washing on the line, sat in the garden for a while and then tidied the house. i love it when i get a cleaning bug and the house looks spangly.

since then i've watched a few hours of mtv, tried on all of my shoes (because i'm such a girl sometimes), tried a few different styles of makeup (again, the girly thing),played about on pr, got a funny mail from a monkey, cooked myself a noodle feast, did my nails and made a birthday card for my bestest friend.

what a productive day!

anyone would think i'm avoiding work and i've got parent's evening on monday or summat...
 

poor old noah

why is it always the story of poor old noah that gets abused in my class of waynes?

last year we heard all about noah's aardvaark.  that made me giggle.

this year we had the story of "the animals going on to noah's arse by two by two".  that made me nearly wet myself.  such are the perils of teaching four year olds.

we talked about the story some more and i questioned gently about what happened when the water started to go down.  "then noah told the animals, 'get off my boat!'" 

*giggle*
