I wasn’t feeling too great yesterday, I was all bunged up, feeling like something was trying to slowly burst out of my head. But, because she’s generally the greatest person in the world, Jane was totally lovely yesterday, she made me corned beef and tomato sandwiches for lunch. Took me right back to my Nan’s house – corned beef and tomato were a staple part of our diet when we were kids, beautiful. The taste brought loads of lovely memories back (see, my childhood wasn’t all bad…). I’m not feeling too bad today, I truly underestimated the medicinal properties of the Tequila Sunrise.
In other new, my speech for David’s wedding is coming on nicely, still not sure if there are too many jokes in there, but hey, this could be the beginning of my career in stand up comedy.
There’s good and bad points about not living in Southampton anymore. The good is that I’m not haunted by bad memories just by walking down the streets. I know I go on about this a lot, but not accidentally bumping into those people who made my life miserable is great. And when I do eventually get a job, I won’t cringe every time one of those people walks into my workplace and be forced to put on a happy face for them. The bad is obvious – not seeing my Mum every day, and not being able to watch Jasmine grow up. Every time I go to visit she seems as though she’s grown a lot, has developed tonnes of new abilities and it seems to me that she is generally growing up in spurts. I don’t know what prompted me to write that, I just felt I had to.
Wow, look at that, not one bad word about the people I live with. A genuine first for my Sunday round-up?
