Busy Busy Day

A hectic day for the Long family.

I had an appointment with the dermatologist early in the morning, and only managed a few hours of sleep because I was so drawn into the drama of the Walker family on Brothers and Sisters, I only went to bed at 4am. I had just commented to my mom that all that drama was unrealistic, though she insists that my family can rival them in that department. More on that another time.

On the way home from the hospital, I had the bright idea of keeping a backup of pa's contacts. Ended up disastrously deleting all of his Outlook contacts and appointments on his phone, after spending 2 hours downloading the programs, of course.

Elizabeth came back all upset, the poor thing, as she was not assigned to a Science class. My heart really goes out to her. I know disappointment, believe me. Hopefully the principal will come through on this, and my dad can help with the process.

To top today off, I actually drove to the club today, all by myself. I am still damn stressed out while driving. The anxiety got to me so bad I had a headache. Had a pretty solitary swim, as the instructor was not present today. The pool was eerily quiet, where just a week ago it was filled with noisy splashes and the happy and/or terrified shrieks of kids on their school holidays. I love being in the pool sometimes. I feel ironically cleansed floating in all that cool blue.

Oh I was presented with a gift from Cookie today. She ran off on one of her escapades to the abandoned house opposite our compound and came back mewing later, begging to be let in through the dining room sliding windows. She brought back supper, and kindly deposited it outside the house before stepping through the grill. The Princess found a Frog. Urgh.
