3-1-10

Back to the childcare centre today. I had a long day of it, too. Can't have got much more than 6 or 7 hours of sleep last night. It was fun, though- for all of their faults the people are very nice and I still adore the kids, so it's nice to know that I won't tire of the age group. I can remember all of their names, too- now. Even the casuals. Mum and Anita went into town, then picked me up at Half Past 4, early. I could tell that Mum had had a stressful day- and no wonder, as Anita had insisted on driving- because her Britishness was more pronounced than ever. On our way to Centro, she informed me that they'd met a couple of pillocks on the road. In Centro, we only had to grocery shop and check the mail box, (Anita wanted veges, strange child,) but when passing by TrendZ we remembered that they did belly-button peircings, and enquired. ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!!! That's almost the price of both of my tattoos put together. On the way out, Anita informed me that Pushkas did it for $49.90. The more that I think about it the more that I think that I might get one when she does. It was a riot of people that I knew, in Centro. Jamie called to me from outside Woolies with her friend Conner, not the ranger one. I talked to her, which meant that I didn't have to shop for Green Groceries with the family. Jamie insisted that I throw a going away party, and when I was doubtful told me that she was throwing me one end of discussion. Should be fun. Mum and Anita were through the checkout when they left, and I saw Anna and her dad at the butchers. Anna was sunburnt, poor girl. I talked with her until mum was calling me away. On the way out I passed Jenny, though we just waved and outside Doyle was waiting. I hadn't thought that I'd see him for a year or more, so I gave him a hug and told him that I'd just seen Jamie, who'd be there soon. Once home I cooked Dinner and dared Anita to ring up Pushkas for an appointment when she woke up. Lamb chops, yum, although I forgot to preheat the oven so the carrots and potatoes turned into a second course. After internet, the third disk of Buffy season 7 and an attempt to finish the third Sookie Stackhouse, Club Dead, I went to sleep at around 3:30.
