Yesterday I returned the Sister to Uni. This involved getting up at the crack of dawn, driving halfway up the country, unloading the car, arranging all her stuff for her and even making a lamp. The lamp was particularly interesting because it was twice the size of me and designed to be spannered together from underneath. I dont think they test these things properly before they leave the factory design section. Anyway she got a bit funny about going back, mostly because shes a bit of a homebody and also because shes having an extended row with one of her housemates. However last time I spoke to her she was wearing a Freshers Rep T-shirt and going for a curry so Im sure shes fine.
It is actually a pretty wierd day because I have quite a lot going on. Somebody I work with has died, which I had trouble dealing with when I first found out. This is mainly because I have little reference to dealing with death. What's stranger is the lack of reaction today in the office. Everything seems to be carrying on as normal, which I suppose is a "fact of life" but I think its pretty odd. I am also going on holiday on Friday for a week with my Mother, which is exciting but I havent got time to really think about that yet. To crown this morning of emotions, I am supposedly having dinner with my Ex tonight. I havent seen him for a few months and we broke up a year ago. (Long story). He is notoriously unreliable though and will probably cancel.
