Out Of My Tree

Today is one of those potentially annoying posts. But, my barely thought out blog, my rules.

My school year is all turning the big 3 oh, but we’re still kids right? I mean grown up stuff doesn’t really exist or happen for us yet right? But… well, one of the sweetest guys in the world has just become a Daddy, and has photos on his Facebook profile which made me all tear-y and my Mum drift into a awwww… realm. Huge congratulations Marc!

And my ol’ friend from 100 thousand years ago gets married in the new year, and I can think of very few who deserve the good times ahead as much as she. Massive congratulations Emy and Jon!

People’s lives moving forwards. It used to send me into a self obsessed funk but now I am just happy for them - does this mean I am growing up too? Oh no…

Speaking of growing up…

Today I was left on my own at work today for a few hours. I mean, other people were in the building but on other floors squirreled away in their own offices. I was flyin’ solo, Cap’n! And it felt good - I felt like there was trust and responsibilities and all that good stuff… And I just got on with it. There was one sticky moment but I handled it with my usual amount of grace and, well, the building didn’t burn down, there was no riots, and all the filing is still alphabetical… Can I call it? Yes, I’m going to…. It was a success!

In other news, I am really worried about my cat. She injured her tail a while ago, losing feeling in the end of it. The vet said it was fine - just to watch an make sure she didn’t trap it in anything. Well, something must have happened… about an hour ago it fell off… leaving about 5mm of bone exposed… Mum is being all calm about it while I am all for calling the emergency vet. She has had a number of bad falls recently. We kind of laugh about it, as she will just fall off arms of chairs and the sofa… anything she is sleeping or sitting on, and it is funny to see… but her balance is going fast and her confidence, which used to show in her leaps and bounds, is disappearing in a cloud of hesitancy.

I was, until about five minutes ago, hopping all over the internet looking for answers but am only succeeding in scaring myself stupid. Hopefully, an appointment will be available tomorrow and hopefully Mum will react appropriately. God, I hope I am just freaking out over nothing!

One more day and then holiday and time to catch up on blog reading… and sleeping!
