Kittens


Do I really need to comment? We might get one or two kittens and aren't they gorgeous. I'm not exactly sure how our cat family of the mum and two kids will react to some more turning up but... who cares they're so CUTE. And they might even get on with the dogs unlike Mum, Tabbifur and Bounty who definitely don't.

Morning? already!

Morning? Already?

I hate mornings! During the whole summer I had completely forgotten that the world existed before midday then one day I was asked to set my alarm for seven o'clock which I did reluctantly and once I had done it I thought: that wasn't so bad. It was only the next morning that I realised what a huge mistake I'd made. It felt as though someone had hit me on the head with a hammer and I shouldn't even know what that feels like because I don't drink. Well of course I drink but not alcohol. Anyway I've been forced for two weeks to wake up at the crack of dawn and now at last, it's the weekend. Yesterday I slept untill half past ten but last night, charlotte was really scared by an episode of casualty so she slept in my bed, diagonaly. To make matters worse she woke me up at ten past eight. I mean TEN PAST EIGHT ON A WEEKEND??? Are you MAD Charlotte?
Then when I eventually mustered up the courage to go downstairs (around half past nine) I asked my mum the question that got me into such big trouble.
What are we doing today?
Well actually it was her answer that started it.
You know Rob it's the new verion of AVG that slows this computer down, we're going to Nana's and Poppa's, I downloaded it last night, I need to pop into beauville to pick up our stuff... about two-ish...

And she said all of this while staring at her computer screen which, as I pointed out was very impolite and gave me the impression that she wasn't paying me any attention. Of course my mum is never wrong so she said that it had never bothered me before, and I said it had so the argument went on. Now whenever she talks to me, she puts her face five inches avay from mine and stares at me. No it isn't funny!

I'm back

After a summer's worth of nothing I'm back and I have so many things to say it may take me years!
Not only am I back on my blog but I'm back at school. The thing about school is that as much as people tell you these are the best years of my life and that I should make the most of them, the fact still remains: lessons are B.O.R.I.N.G! For some reason as soon as I'm sat behind a desk in front a a black board and a teacher (who, I have decided can't posiibly be from the same species as us) I just zone out. I can remind myself as much as I like that this year is important because my results throughout the year count for more than half my points in my exam... but I can't concentrate. It isn't that everything goes in through one ear and out the other, nothing even gets that far, it bounces off that invisible wall that surrounds me and I end up thinking about random things like: how come, if you but chocolate spread on toast, it tastes better than if you put it on bread? and why does Chloe (our dog) keep bringing the same rock in and putting it in exactly the same place in the middle of the floor? Which, as far as I know, has absolutely nothing to do with the technology lesson on calculating the basic price of a product by including other costs. And the worst thing is that I've only been back six days.
One good thing about school is my friends, over the summer holidays, I had forgotten their little ways. Three of my friend Coraline's friends have asked her out and as usual she has made a huge fuss about it. Jade is already picking on Sarah saying she's embarrassed to be with her. And I have managed to get myself and Sarah invited to the boy she's fancied for two years under the pretext of starting a band. I never play cupid because I've noticed that things don't tend to work out after someones lied to one of the unlucky couple about one of them fancying the other... but this time it might work so I'm just going to let them be and hope for the best!
