I am seriously confused right about now.
I mean I cannot be the only person in the world with an interior dialogue which has the most cynical viewpoint as well the most paternalistic eager to please personas.
To explain.
Got asked on friday after coming back from visiting a friend who had been in hospital and who isn't good and doing overtime,
(so tired isn't even touching how I'm feeling)
would I do a quiz for dad's cardiac group,for monday (the 9th) the guy had rung that day (that would be the 6th)
the eager to please paternalistic dutiful daughter says yes of course and trys to figure out when she is going to get time to fit in making up an entire quiz.
then on the table I see a letter dated the 2nd telling the cardiac group that there was a quiz being organised.
The letter was dated the 2nd.
Cynical pops up in my head and says nice to see how much they think of you that they know you'll do it at short notice. Hows it feel to be that little thought of?
I flare a bit and then dad says well don't so it.
then another argument starts in my head about him getting kudos ( mum and dad deny this as a BTW) for me being able to come up witrh scratch quizzes that suit them in a heartbeat.
This argument has been going on all weekend.
The quiz has been done including two extra bits for when I'm marking, with cryptic film clues and number phrase thingies.
And I'm confused.
Anyone want to help or at the very least referee?
