Thursday’s child has far to go
I am convinced that the people behind JRE’s and Java, those Sun people set out to make things as difficult as possible. Seriously, I have spent the last 2 hours installing, uninstalling, reinstalling, standing on my head whilst doing it. Netbeans 5.5 comes bundled with JDK 1.6 but we are supposed to use 1.5. So we have to tell it to look for 1.5. Do you think it listens? At all? Nope. Stupid thing. I shouldn’t really give out, the machine does exactly what we tell it to do. One of my problems was the 8 other versions of the JRE that was installed on my machine. It seems a lot happier since I removed them. Well, whatever you would think a happy machine looks like.
The day has improved slightly from the morning. This morning was spent in a foul humour. I can honestly say I’m a fairly rational person, perhaps other people wouldn’t agree but I think so and that’s all that matters 
I don’t get really angry, like really furious. I think I have done on 3 occasions throughout my life. You know the whole hands shaking, can’t form a sentence anger. The sister K was on gchat and so listened while I ranted. Ranting is good for the soul as is sunshine! I am sooo excited about Westlife! Stop rolling your eyes at me and mentioning musical taste. I like them!
Yesterday evening I went training. Twice in one week, I must be unwell. The mate J was supposed to come along but the poor thing was wrecked. I mean she was asleep on her feet when I met her. She had been up since 6 and in work from 8 onwards. All she wanted was a bed and not boxing gloves. The class was really good. Except for the part where I lost my wedding ring. The only time I take the thing off is when I am training as my hands get sweaty inside the gloves and so I put it in my wallet. I went to get it and put it back on as I was on my home and couldn’t find it. I was not impressed with myself. Mammy2 is dropping into the gym today to see if they still have it otherwise we are going shopping for a new one. Thankfully Mammy2 wasn’t too peeved. The poor thing has been so wrecked lately with the whole Dad being sick thing.
The kid’s mood thankfully has improved. Not sure if its the Meds or what, but whatever it is we’ll take it. Although yesterday she was a bit of a handful. As it turns out her oral is today and not yesterday so yesterday she had to come home sick. Of course. As per when I get home she takes my phone, replaces my SIM card with hers and uses the phone. I didn’t realise the phone saves txt messags to its memory as well as to the SIM card’s memory. Look at me, talking as if I know about these things! Anyway, I mentioned to her that the sister K has booked the hostel, and she came back with “Oh yeah I know, I was deleting the sent messages and noticed that” She also read the message that I sent to Mammy2 along the lines of “I can’t reach her on the landline, can you txt me when you get home.She better be at home” Thankfully, she didn’t have the phone any other day, god only knows what I might have written about her
I got in from training and was asking her about her day, she was a tad chattier and in less of a mood then when I got home from work. She’s worried about her subjects. She gets like this and then we go through her subjects one by one and talk about them and then she feels better. See what a good parent I am?! Just got a txt from her, she had her irish oral and she’s feeling faint. Surprise surprise. No mention of needing to forge a note though. Thank feck.
