Just as I was bouncy...I'd had a good day, spent time on the rocks and been to an extremely interesting seminar which I fully contributed to and feel I got a lot from.
Then came work.
Fucking stupid work.
Tom was sick...and when I mean sick I mean pukey pukey sick...on the way home from school. I had no tissues or anything. I had to send beks running to a friend's house to gets some. Then Tom (who had been sick all over his shoes and trousers) started crying and wanting his mum. Eventually we got him cleaned up enough to get him home and when we got there got him into his jammies and tucked up on the sofa. Sent beks to wake her father who said he'd be down in a minute and wasn't until 6:15 when sue got back. Meanwhile, tom was still saying he wanted his mummy, who was in a meeting at her school and do I have that number or her mobile one?> No. I fucking don't. So I'm left for over 2 hours with a sick child who wants his mother. This is the first time I've *ever* been in charge of a sick child. *thanks rah for her advice*
GAH!
Don't know if I can face choir tonight. Yes, I'm still on campus but I'm tired and hungry and bad tempered and in some kind of shock from just having done it all. GAH GAH GAH!
*cries*

Obviously, leaving IRC to go to choir would be an incredibly silly idea ;)
