D-Day or should I say P-Day

The kid is just after txting to say she’s dropped off the portfolio to Dun Laoghaire. The best part of a couple of years worth of work will be judged in 20 minutes or less and she returns to pick it up. I really really hope she gets an offer. The amount of work she has put into this, the amount of obstacles she has had to overcome with grants and having to just get up every morning on days when she didn’t have the energy or the inclination, she need this. So I guess I hope that the portfolio shows that she can do this. The letters are sent in a couple of months. She has the day off from Work Expierence to hand it up. Its strange not having her in here now. Haressing me on gchat to play scrabble on Facebook. I created a monster when I showed her the game. Now she’s addicted. Its okay for her to sit on scrabble for a few hours, but I’m pretty sure my boss would raise an eyebrow or 2 if I was late on delivery of a project because I was playing scrabble with my sister. She is so funny thought, she has had me actually laughing out loud at some of her comments. A selection of gchat convos:

The Kid:: Can ya believe yer man A I was telling you about has his status updates as “ohhhhhhhhhhhhh my head” and talking about pictures being up, so I can only assume he got destroyed yday, kids these days!

The Kid:: Oh Metro says JJ’s affair with tattooed model went on for 11 months?!
And a parrot died of cancer :(

The Kid:: Come here!
Shelly wazzup?
The Kid:: Were you laughing at the cancer parrot?
Shelly: em * whistles * no
The Kid:: I saw you roar out laughin!
Shelly: of course not

The Kid:: Heartless! Scrabble when they’re gone

The Kid:: * shrugs* my duvet thinks I’m fuckin ROCKIN

When I originally thought of 2 weeks of working with her, walking to and from work with her and training with her, I got a headache thinking we’ll kill each other. In actual fact we got on great. She’s so much more mature then before, she’s easy to hang with and we have a laugh. I’ll miss her when she finishes tomorrow. We’re bringing her out for dinner tonight to celebrate the portfolio being handed up. She wants to sample the delights of the Hard Rock Cafe, wouldn’t be my first choice but its her celebration. They go have lovely potato skins though. Which is always a good thing :)

Tomorrow night myself and Mammy2 are dining out to mark 11 years since our first date. Mammy2 still cracks the old joke about prison , killing me and being out by now. I’m not sure if that bodes well for the relationship or not. I suppose if we got this far we might last a bit longer ;)

Speaking of relationships and lasting, I am still in shock over Sandra Bullock’s hubby. What a wagon. She is so lovely and have you see the pics of Mrs Skankalot he hooked up? Its hard to find a clear space on her body with all the tatoos. Some people are saying perhaps that’s why he cheated, because Sandra didn’t have as many tatoos. I don’t know about you but basing a relationship on tatoos seems a bit shallow no? Anyhew, she’s divorcing him, good for her. Let him move onto wife number 4. The fecker. She deserves better.
