Oh. Leaving Cert. Martha'll be getting her results this time next year. And she'll be legal to drink. Oh indeed.

And completely unrelated, but how does it cost €1200 more to insure her on the Ka than me? Sure, there's 13 years age gap, but that's it. That's the only difference. I'm 30, she's 17, both with zero drivies experience. Hell, even my vroomycycle insurance will be less than her car insurance. Is odd. Getting a vroomycycle, have to, no room for 4 cars outside the house and I'll need transport (plus, can park vroomycycle at work, it's very unlikely I'll get a car parking space while I'm still a student.) I'm obviously gutted :D Oh, yes, Martha bought herself a purple Ka out of her confirmation money. Yes, she got that much and yes, she's had it that long.

This is another one of those "will get once I get back to paid work" things. Which is getting sorted next week. I can walk, I'm grand again, haven't taken any painkillers in 10 days (which was also the last time I saw anyone who isn't family. Sigh.) Mostly cos codeine makes me weird and feel drunk, with associated tears at the drop of a hat or a thrown away line. And getting back to work will shift some of the summer weight. Bloody well better, found a slinky dress in the wardrobe, hidden behind my tie rack. A slinky dress with sparkly bits! I can be a real girl!

Bleh. I thought that fish looked dodgy. And it was. It's now late, and I'm going to sleep. Night!

Wah, wail, etc.

Bleh again. Either that fish was really really dodgy or I've picked up a bug. Throat sore from acid, and wondering what the hell was in there to still be coming up because all I've eaten today was a slice of toast. Still wound up doing all the dishes, which strikes me as distinctly unfair when I'd not partaken of the meals. Wah again. At least today's pots didn't contain mushy peas.

Meant to be in Blanch tomorrow night, but if this keeps up I'm spending another day within 10 feet of the loo.

On the upside, I'm down to however many pairs of knickers and socks as will fit in one drawer, not a drawer each. It's also been pointed out to me that for the same price as 8 sets of scrubs in Arnott's I could fly to the US and buy 8 sets there. Really must poke work about whether or not I can wear my own. I suspect the official answer will be no, for the same "reason" as I had to take out my tongue bar - infection control. Because, ya know, I lick babies.
