Riverdance



Tonight, I'm going to see it. For the third time. Me, hardcore fan, nah! I love it. Seriously, its hard to describe unless you've been to see
it but the combination of irish history, dance and music is brilliant. Gets the heart beating and suddenly you want to grab a bodhran and bate the living crap out of it, or shlap the thigh of the nearest person declaring Oreland is the best country ever to live in. I restrain myself somewhat else I don't think I'd be allowed near the Gaiety. As you can gather, moods have improved slightly. I was in great form this morning and then Mammy2 got in touch with me about her 'wonderful' boss. Its been close to 5 months since she' had a sick day, which is HUGE for her. She's had them on and off but worked up every time she's missed out. She put in for leave for tomorrow and Wed as she is heading to Tori Amos. Not alone does the miserable ****** tell her, 'we have to talk about this', this being her illness, but claims he has no record of her leave. The tempation to head into those offices and rip into him is too great. I've tried talking Mammy2 into leaving but she lives for the place. Its so infuriating that this gobshite can cause so much pain. Thankfully, her mood appears to have lifted. I have told her a number of times that she can leave. I'm earning enough at this stage to get us through a few months if she needs time out. But she thinks its important she keep working. I'm supposed to be up to my neck in java, of the code variety, before you think I've completly lost it and am bathing in coffee. The stupid thing refuses to work.I've even tried sneaking up on it, but to no avail. It can't see the branch. I can see the branch, everyone else can see the fecking branch, why can't it see? I drew it a picture. If java should shurg its shoulders it would have. The kid stopped over today on her way back out to meet mates. We're like a B&B to her these days, not that I am complaining. An empty apartment is always welcome. I'm concerned that she hasn't heard from the portfolio places yet, or perhaps she hasn't and isn't bothered. Sometimes, motivating her is as difficult as getting her to go to school. Ah, I remember those days. She also hasn't been to see her therapist in a while. Again, this could be a good thing meaning she doesn't need her. Speaking of all things doctor related, I've had to stop training due to a reappearence of a stupid injury I got whilst training years ago. Its flared up again and it looks like I need Physio again. Which is pants. I am so unimpressed with this crock of a body of late. I've a good mind to trade it in only for I don't think I'd get much for it. Did I mention I'm going to Riverdance tonight?! I think it is becoming my favourite show to go see. Although I did love Mamma Mia. Too much goodness!
