Romance Central

Love is most definitely in the air around me. There must have been an army of Cupids all with bow and arrow trained upon chez auntiegwen. The atmosphere around us is cloud soft and sweet. Love has found us and we are being pursued and wooed with an ardour than is surprising. I would tell you more but you'd feel queasy.

Everyone has an admirer. Some of us have two, this is not good, we are not decisive by nature, this is why 2 of us are vegetarian, less choice on the menu, how do regular humans cope with 20 or 30 things to choose from?

One of us has a choice of both genders. One of us has received 2 bouquets of flowers. Mush is in abundance.

We are living an episode of Hollyoaks, there are twists and turns and updates every day.

Can I enjoy this mushfest?, can I feck, one of us has a big feck off, counts for masses of your A level Sociology exam on Tuesday.

And one of us is a Mummy who will never stop worrying about her Eldest Beautiful Daughter, who is spookily and scarily just like me, can't make decisions and is being torn between the old and the new and who really doesn't need the distraction before her A levels. I would like her to ignore both and engage with her revision and then when they are over she can enjoy the high dramas and decisions and excitement and wooing to her hearts content.

AFTER THE FECKIN EXAMS, we are on the home stretch, don't distract her now.

So words you never thought auntiegwen mush junkie would ever say

Please make the mush go away.

Except mine, I can cope with my portion.

Oh I sympathise....this was me last year, and I do know of what you speak.....last year my daughter needed AAB (and in hard subjects too...not whistling and some other odd ology)and achieved AAB, which is fantastic, but has to resit a module this coming Tuesday, as doing the same one last year co-incided with her FAFFING ABOUT WITH A BOY WHO TURNED OUT TO BE SOMEONE SHE NOW WOULDNT CROSS THE ROAD TO PIDDLE ON IF HE WAS ON FIRE!!..so nearly a year later she is taking a gap year, working (and enjoying the earning/saving/spending combo I am glad to say)but we are BACK ON THE EXAM merry go round again.
Good taste on the jam front Auntiegwen...and are you all loved up at the moment??

Good to hear you're getting your fair share of it! But, yes god, what a pain in the arse the opposite sex are at exam time, and of course it's no good trying to tell them, is it?!?

Rate My Sausage said...

As a veggie, AG, do you ever eat veggie sausages? I'd quite like to review some and thought I'd seek advice from the horse's mouth.
