Day of Awesome.
Yesterday was way better than expected, torrential rain turned into more of a normal NI rain on my way to the bus and by the time I got to the abbeycentre, Emma was already there waiting for me :-D
I forewent the frog and got a ladybird instead, mum's going to be well pissed, but she'll love it. She'll hate that I got it for her though and demand to know how much I spent on it, it's a tiny tiddly bit of crystal but ridiculous in price.
I was in a mood of claustrophobia so being in small shops with lots of people grew to annoy me substantially. Went into Thorntons PERSON FROM SCHOOL anal Robert bahahhaa.
I bought THE MOST AWESOME book ever, like EVER. It's a Mythology book that has little things tucked inside, like a bit of the golden fleece, and a feather pen, and an olbos for Charon. So cool. Also it had the Odyssey condensed into a 6 page mini book, how I wished we had to translate that instead of entire books. So I was getting all nerdy about that.
After we faffed about for a while, I confessed a deep and terrible secret that none of you will ever find out (it's shameful) and then Emma's not-quite sister-in-law gave me a lift home. AHHHHHHHHHHHH. She just passed her test this week, she stalled on a roundabout probably about 4 times and veered into someone else's lane while they were literally beside her. I think I had one eye closed for the entire journey.
Got home, jumped in shower, got ready for the evening meet-up. BUT before the eevning meetup something was told to me, something that still makes me giggle right now, something that has made my ego jump up about 15 notches. Heeeee.
Apparently my mum's cousin's daughter's son (that's what I said) just started my old school. He is a troublesome child who disrupts his classes (I wouldn't know ANYTHING about that). Anyway, he must have done it one time too many because his parents were called in for a meeting, I assume with his form teacher, WHOEVER THAT MAY BE (the most crucial part of the story, who said it, is missing).
So his form teacher is telling Myles' parents what a bad, bad child he's been and what were they going to do to sort this problem out? Form teacher asks his parents, "do you have any relations that previously went to this school?"
Parent: "my mum's cousin's daughter used to go here."
Form teacher: "Who was that?"
Parent: "Charley Wray."
Form Teacher: "CHARLEY WRAY?! Ooooh, well you'd best get your act together because that's one tough act to follow!"
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. But who said it is still a mystery! The most important factor of this whoooole story and i don't know who it was :-( Really though, it could have ONLY been like three people. :-D And reaaaaaalllllly, out of them, I think only one would have said it which vaguely makes me squee inside. Ok, that's a lie, it totally made me squee out-loud. And I'm still doing it. Heeheeheeheeheeeee.
Anyway, moving onnnnnnwards. Went to see SE, Wrinkles and Jools and had a strangely awesome evening. Spent most of it discussing Gerard Butler's naked body, veered off on bagels and philadelphia for about 45 minutes and then came back to naked body again, obligatory 10 mins was spent telling them about the panto and Gavin Woods (oh yeah and note that I have backup on that one from someone who replied to that entry). We giggled like teenagers for the entire night, SE was glad to leave early I think, tsking at us for being so shallow. I was called a proper drinker by the barman harharhar because they were on softdrinks (pah!) and then went home. Jools was driving and we were distracting her with Gerard BUTler imagery :-D :-D
So yeah, it wasn't a disaster day as I thought it would be. Now I have to tidy the bathroom, do some of this project and squee to myself some more about how AWESOME I am, and what a tough act I am to follow! (it's convenient that he's forgotten how many times I disrupted his classes over the years, the many times I got sent out to "calm down" from laughing so much, or just distracting him from whatever point he was trying to make and making him laugh when he was trying SO VALIANTLY to be serious.) Moh. Must. Not. Go. In.
