missing ovaries

I took a pregnancy test yesterday to see if the result would differ from the night before. Negative.
I don’t know why I thought 12 hours would make a difference. I was a bit peeved about it yesterday but I’ve gotten over it today!

As mammy2 says if its meant to happen it will, or something equally Yoda like. The kid got her hair done yesterday, although I don’t know why as she’s insisting on getting dreads, not as in go to hairdresser and get it done, but more like grow your own and stick some beeswax in them. Personally, I think she’s mad. The amount of preening and brushing and flicking she does with her hair. I can’t see her leaving it for the best part of a month not washing it etc to get dreads. We shall see. I dropped into the hairdress to pick her up but she was still getting stuff done, so I sat and waited.
There were about four hair dressers standing around chatting and I started to get nervous.

I don’t know if I mentioned before that I think hairdressers are like web designers when they see a bad site. They just want to get it and re-design it. When hairdressers see dodgy hair , they want to dive right in their with a scissors. Enter me. I’ve been letting it grow for the last while, but even I am at the stage now where I know its needs a trim. I sat there, envisioning these girls coming down from the ceiling on ropes, ala Charlie’s Angels, scisscors in one hand and moose in the other and by the time the kid is finished, I look like something from a Wella commercial.

We went and got dinner then, the usual for herself, chicken nuggets and chips, the stable diet of a teenager! Whilst texting, and chewing her food, she tried to tell me something about lack of free text messages. Meteor have this great idea of if you buy 20 euro credit every month, you have unlimited free texts to other Meteor customers. However, because it had been a while since we bought credit, she got loads of credit with her new phone, the free texts ran out. She had the nerve to ask for more credit , whilst pointing the finger at me?! I told her in no uncertain terms that she would be getting credit for another month and wasn’t it enough that we spent a fortune getting her hair done. That shut her up; for about 5 minutes and she was off talking about dreads then at the same time as eyeing up some gothic type girlie in the seat next to us.

Onto things of a more serious nature, the kid got a txt from the gf on yesterday morning so say she had been assaulted by the taxi driver who was bringing her home. She was reluctant to make a statement to the guards as she said she had a few drinks on her on the night and didn’t get the drivers reg or id. But we convinced her that it was important for her to do this. We also wanted to make sure that she was okay with this, it was horrible enough to go through the ordeal without having to recount it in detail to a cop.

She made her statement and then it was back to the flat for cuddles from the kid.
